Greetings!

Hi everyone! This is my first post in the forums so bear with me.

As we all know, there's probably nothing more annoying than lag and delay while playing a nice game of Halo 3 matchmaking.
Ones connection plays a major part of it, but before a game starts and you view your opponents profile and see what region of the world they come from, you can easily foresee whether there will be lag or delay in the game or not (depending on who gets the host).

Now, I'd really like to see a new matchmaking search option like, prefer skill or connection etc, but this time a "prefer region".
Language is okay but where I come from it narrows it down too much. It's nearly impossible to find any players at all when you're in a team.
Now wouldn't it be better if you could choose to search for players from let's say, Europe, America or Asia and so on?
This would allow you to escape the lag and delay between the different parts of the world, right?

Just a thought.

I'm just kidding I guess it's not a bad Idea although I think they already have a similar feature.

A real test of a man is if he is willing to scrape a sharpened razor up and down his junk just to please a woman.

Nice idea, I support.

Dude I don't care and my grammer is perfect.I used "Big", as you recall it to mak is specific."to not do...",is incorrect beause "do" is present tense/perfect(or future) when it was a past tense.

Yes, yes, yes, YES!

There is a prefer language option. But how many regions are there in the world that speak English? Which are geographically nowhere near each other. A region feature would be very welcome.
