Went to play COD 4 online for the first time last night, and when i search for matches it just sits their saying "Getting match quality" and then every 5mins or so it quickly flickers to another message for a split second then back to getting match quality.

I have both the latest updates for the ps3 (2.10) and it auto downloaded the latest patches for cod 4. It cant be my internet connection because i can connect to Unreal Tournament matches fine, with no lag whatsoever.

Anyone else having this issue ??

nah mine just keeps sitting their!! Although last night i did get in, i got invited to a match by some friends (i would join their match and then i would get kicked out with messages along the lines of "host has left the game" "server timed out" BUT after i got kicked out i looked for games online and bam within a second i had a list of people and could join games ??? no lag no weird messages or anything !! :o

Will try again tonight and see what happens

its setup on wireless, when i check signal strength it fluctuates between 85%-100%, as far as ports go i have no idea with that. The weird thing is though i can connect to UT3 online without fail every time with no lag, throw COD 4 in and i get these problems, so it couldn't be my internet could it.

Check router settings.
You may need to open a particular port for that game.

Hey Everyone --

Another Update for you:

The server team has been working on this all weekend, and will be working through the night. They're upgrading all server hardware as well as dedicated an individual database to each functionality to improve performance and handle the traffic hitting the servers. (i.e. Database for Matchmaking, Database for Leaderboards, etc.)

This will greatly improve the speed and stability for matchmaking for players.

During this upgrade you may still receive the 'Downloading Game Settings' message, but it is temporary, in the sense of just let it download and you will eventually drop into a lobby and play just fine.

Remember, this is just short term, eventually once everything is upgraded you won't be receiving Downloading Game Settings at all.

However, if you do, just wait it out and you will be dropped into a lobby.
