Hmm, so just because the majority of players are in North America that means everybody who lives outside North America has to suffer?
As a counterargument that kind of leaves me cold. And I don't want it as a fixed feature anyway, but I would like it as an option. Other games (very successful ones) do offer it as an option and it doesn't seem to negatively effect their numbers?
If anything they seem to have 'stolen' just about my entire Halo friends list ! Meh, maybe if 'Reach' followed their example I might just get some of them back?
Or does that not make sense?
I'm not at all saying that it should be anyway over another, i'm just trying to get you to understand the thought process behind the decision. For people in the US getting caught in games where the host is in NZ, UK or Australia, it is no picnic either, but it happens. I see no evil in a regional option, however you need to remember that unlike several other games out there with MM, Bungie constantly monitors theirs and trying to keep it running as smooth as possible. Unfortunately this has resulted in streamlining, but it is done to keep things running.
Any time you partition off the "pool" of players you run the risk of adversly effecting all involved. I certainly acknowledge the merit behind your idea, however the implementation is the issue.
