Can someone explain this to me ? (Multiplayer)

Hey,

So I played the multiplayer quite a bit yesterday, and I have this problem: I keep getting games with a host halfway across the world....Let me explain, I'm english (my country of residence on the psn is UK) I live in Asia and I keep getting in games with a UK Host which results in a 1 bar connection. I had a few games with people from my region and got consistently 3bar, even got host, but 95% of the time I keep getting UK host.

What can I do ? My internet connection is pretty good, I know it's not that. Is there an option to only join games with a nearby host ?

Thanks. Really like this game, but the one bar connection is kinda ruining the experience for me.

Your PS3 is selecting your region for hosts based on the country you selected when making your PSN ID. If you live in Asia your shouldn't have made a PSN ID for the UK. Make one for Asia and you should be fine.

I had my PSN account before I moved to Asia, never had this problem before.

Anyway, thanks, I'll try with a new PSN account.
