I'm not actually 100% sure i see the problem with this tbh. If it works, then whats the issue. The matchmaker works fine for MW1 on console, and it's a far easier way of managing resources by using a cloud.
I'm still going to go ahead and buy this, don't knock it till you've tried it bloke
The issue is the fact that we aren't going to be able to have modded versions of the game, this means effectively that there will be no competitive CoD. All public servers that are unmodded for CoD suck on the PC. Perks and certain weapons take all skill and fun out of the game. Sure for having a quick public game then it is fine to have a matchmaker. But for scrims this system even if there is a private version of it will suck.
STOP making all PC games consoley. Consoles are fine, they have there place. The reason MW1 was good on the PC and the reason I actually still play it is because there are mods like promod and gungame mods and the like that are either much more suited to match play due to experienced gamers making them that way or are just more fun than public servers.
I really hope there is either some silver lining to this or they change it, otherwise this may well suck balls. I was really looking forward to a new competitive CoD game. I will still be buying it as I want the SP and will for a short time give the mp system the benefit of the doubt but I'm very very dubious.
