That would actually be *preferable*!
Just the number, no rating necessary or colored dots. LOL
All MP games should have that.

No , i dont think it would be enough

Having the player (when he makes a match) select the region he is from would be a HUGE HUGE Thing for some of the gamers from other countries that have trouble organizing matches

I know that gamers from Australia have HUGE lag issues joining games from any other country

and it would be essential imo to have the best connection possible for those people.

Not to mention it would be quite innovative on the team's part to implement something like this to help gamers choose the right rooms for better connections

And i dont really think it would be that tricky to implement into the game

They have trouble ("lag") due to distance---if connecting to another country, which obviously means anyone other than AU. Distance itself is a factor in ping, but not the only one certainly.
Ping would be good because it isn't just dependent on geographical distance, but also the line condition and distance of the route itself. If there are other factors influencing the connection, ping can reflect that. I don't want to connect to someone nearby just because they're geographically closer if there are line conditions resulting in a slower ping reply.
If I see a ping of 120ms, I don't want to connect to them regardless of where they are. However, if I get 55ms, I couldn't care less. Realistically, geography will come into play though, so it will all take care of itself.

Hey thanks brothers for thinking of us people down here in Australia!!!

A region filter would be great in addition to the ping. I believe Call of Duty: World at War was one of the first games to feature a region filter. I can tell you, it was VERY well received by Aussie xbox forum members. (not sure if PS3 also had this feature?)

However, if it is something that would delay the release of the game, please don't worry about it! I want to play the single player game as soon as possible.

Usually i only play on xbl with my friends, but i will be happy to swap gamer tags with you guys once the game is released!!!
