I got huge lagg when I'm playing multiplayer. It freezes for like 1-2 sec sometimes. Singleplayer works perfectly normaly and i got about 80 fps, but in multiplayer it laggs the whole fucking time and the fps is about 10-30. The strange thing is, yesterday i played lagg free. Then i quited it and played some WoW, then i started it again, and it was like before. Please, help me!

It's probably just the result of the P2P hosting set up. For whatever reason (more than likely to cut costs), IW don't use dedicated servers for playing online. If you're connecting to a host from across the globe, you'll lag like you aren't even playing the game.

Check your connection on the scoreboard each time you join a match. If it's red, chances are you're in a game hosted overseas. It's best to quit and search for a new match...

I'm not a PC gamer, but I agree with that.

Also

From PS3 experience, not sure how PC is, be prepared tfor it to take a while...

It usually doesn't take that long to back out of a game and find a new one on PC, however, I've been dropped back into the hella laggy games and that is quite annoying. I rarely get dropped into a euro game unless I am a party member of a european teammate, in which case IWNET will find a game based on the euro's ping/connection. Even still, we have played games where a USA member hosts the party and one of our UK mates ends up hosting the game. IWNET can be a really finicky bitch sometimes.

Aussie players on PS3 seem to be quite lucky when it comes to MW2 matchmaking. One of the patches IW released, semi region locked us, so it's rare to be in a game with less than 3 green bars.

Whenever I get put into a game with a single red bar, I know there are very few Aussie players online, so I take that as my cue to go to bed (or play a something else)...
