Hey Everyone --

Just to clarify on my last post, those Playlist changes mentioned apply to PS3 and 360 and should be hitting here soon (in December), but I wanted to make it clear that the patch itself with the other changes (i.e. Host Migration, Kill Cams) that are only for the Xbox 360 will probably hit after December, as that requires going through certification, while the Playlist changes we can change dynamically. I noticed it getting reported as the patch getting released in December, and wanted to stop it before too many hopes got up. ( )

Now for the PS3: The PS3 Connectivity patch will be hitting in the very near future and is separate from the Xbox 360 patch. The PS3 (exclusive) Connectivity patch will include:

US Data Center For NAT Server

Will make all US players connect to US data center and EU users connect to EU data center. This will optimize performance for all users in those areas. (No more international play? What the make love?)

Fixed 'Downloading Game Settings' Error

Fixed error with conflicting packet interaction.

Port 3095 Issue Corrected

Players were required to have port 3095 open in order to host. Now players who have port 3095 blocked can still host matches.

Matchmaking Optimization

Server search will end upon acquiring a certain number of good servers. Added "prefer" servers with best ping, this will optimize and expedite players finding and joining good matches.

In short, the playlist changes for both consoles will be hitting very soon, however the Xbox 360 patch will probably hit after December once it goes through certification. The PS3 connectivity patch will be hitting very soon and is separate from the 360 patch.

Let me know if you guys have any additional questions, the PS3 will be getting another patch in the new year which will contain some of the same additions as the 360 one but not all.





Yes, you heard that right folks. The PS3 version isn't getting all those extra changes the 360 version is. IF clearly doesn't see the PS3 version as important as the 360 version confirmed. Talk about disrespect. We paid the exact same price as the 360 customers, but we don't get the same fixes and changes that make the game better.
