There will be one red bar beside everyone's name across both teams except for like one person who has full green. What causes this? I have a good internet connection so it's not that..

Also, I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but I just shot a guy 4 times in the head with a shotgun from like a foot away then hit him with a melee strike and he turns around and melees me one time and kills me? That's not the only example either... Some games I can put nearly a whole clip in their unarmored body or melee them at least 4 or 5 times in rapid succession and they won't die.. But I get killed with one melee and I have nearly full armor? I'm not sure how online connections work on games but something doesn't feel right....

Because people are being matched with hosts that are over 5 thousand miles away. Example: We have 11 people in California being matched with a host in New York. Im confused as to how people at Crytek can code the complexities of the CryEngine 3, which in all honesty is an amazing Engine in its own right, these very same people didn't have the foresight in implicating a Region and more particularly Time zone locked matchmaking system. It's mind boggling.

Match making svcks in the game but the real problem is no dedicated servers. If you have a low signal strength and someone on the opposing team has a very high signal strength get ready to be owned again and again and again.

I've been trying not to blame the game, but sometimes I know what I'm looking at is ****. Several times I've put close to a whole clip in the back of someone's head only to get one hit meleed. So I guess it's the matchmaking then... Oh well, all I can do is hope it gets fixed. I really hope so, too, because this game is a lot of fun otherwise.

cryteck is aware of this problem. just give them time. maximum of 4months like CoD developers..
but its really frustrated that they made a good and nice game with a cheap server...

all yellow or red bar, worst than battlefield
