From Bowling's Twitter:
"There isn't an option to search specific regions / countries when matchmaking, but there is improved matchmaking to auto-assist"
This is bad news for Australia, and all other non-American gamers, and has unsurprisingly triggered some colourful comments in the official Xbox forums: "in layman's terms, we are shafting all non-American gamers."
It's not like the technology is unfeasible; Treyarch's Treyarch's CoD: World at War supported Local Search.
This news stacks uncomfortably with the revelation that Modern Warfare 2 will not have any kind of zombie mode...
