Actually, they don't speak, they scream like they're overly excited about something or they've had something shoved up their ass and most of them decided to randomly turn on their mics after the game starts, but yeah being a few seconds behind them is sh!t, I get put into games with them all the time.

Lets be honest, any connection outside the UK is just BullS*** French do seem to be the worst at dragging a game down though..

Personally i would like to see a playlist for your own country... if someone from another country joins that playlist they should not be given any help from any network coding to make their experience better. Let them suffer it out if they dont like it they can always leave and join their own country's playlist.

Hey look on the bright side.. 2013 is the year off Respawn... with any luck the original COD 4 / MW2 team will take COD and as it is now and **** it silly.

I would generaly agree i hate the europian lobby outside the UK but thats because of lag im not perticually against them or anything but to be honest i would have to say the worst lag comes from australia and new zealand ect. america is just about bearable on the east cost thanks to that huge fiber optic cable that runs under the atlantic on the west coast however its still ****.

I hit a lot of French Lobbys and i am from the States...... But i normally love it, because i almost always get on the good end of the LAG MONSTER ...hehehehehe

Why are fellow UK people on this thread acting like the UK is some kind of advanced civilisation with super fast broadband? Stop it, its embarrasing! The UK sits 25th in Europe. On average the infrastructure is inferior to most in Europe. Even Romania ***** the UK for speed and bandwidth as does most of Eastern Europe and North West Europe -

But this isn't even taking into account crappy ISPs and their traffic shaping like the terrible so called awesome 1zillionMbps Virgin Broadband service, how busy your household pipeline is etc. Basically the UK is just as shite as France on average and our UK rural population has the worst broadband in Europe -

So I'd rather have a babbling French player (muted of course) than a UK country bumpkin in my lobby.

None of us has any choice in deciding where we connect, the game (read IW) chooses for us. Hate the game not the players.

Because Great Britain and France are (at minimum) 22 miles apart.

...This is how I feel up in Michigan in the US playing with the mexicans almost 3,000 miles apart! And I get the people from South Korea and Europe. Yeah, because they are right next door to me.
