Massive news has just been revealed by Treyach that local matchmaking will feature in Call of Duty: Black Ops.
Treyarch's community manager Josh Olin divulged this at this year's gamecom in Cologne, "[multiplayer matchmaking] will enable matchmaking with people in the local area."
It was in September of last year that Robert Bowling, creative strategist at Infinity Ward, admitted that "There isn't an option [in Modern Warfare 2] to search specific regions/countries when matchmaking, but there is improved matchmaking to auto-assist."
Today's exciting revelation could prove to be the end of lag for all future Call of Duty games.
Do you think this will prove to be the end of lag in Call of Duty?

To be fair this is a brilliant idea, however it isn't going to solve lagg. It could help though

I'm really excited for this. Localized matchmaking has finally been implanted in the Call Of Duty franchise!

I'm confused aswell, So does this mean like Since i'm in the US, that I will not be able to play with people from lets say the UK, if so, then I don't really like this option at all 
, but I am still gonna pre-order the Hardened Edition if its not too late... ^

I agree with what people are saying, it will not be the end of lag but nevertheless it should be an improvment

I think you will. You will just have the option to pick from your locale or global matchmaking. Hope im right lol

I agree but then if dedicated servers were put in place it would cost money to run those servers, and more then likely the money to fund said servers would come from us...
