BO3 has dedicated servers on PC because PC players demand it. Dedicated servers are no where to be found on any console version of COD. The PC community understands what it is and why it's crucial for gameplay. I would venture to say that 70% of the console online gaming community has no idea what matchmaking is. If they did, no one would ever brag about K/D because they would understand that it's all bullshit and Hosts have a massive advantage. What determines if you get host?
Many factors determine host eligibility, none of which have anything to do with the player's knowledge of having a clean network setup. To make matters worse, in an effort to combat this massive disparity between host and client, lag compensation exists to give high ping players an edge, mostly in the form of aggressive headshot bloom which mirrors extreme auto aim. Where does this leave a majority of the community who have decent ping? Stuck between a rock and a hard place...
The rock being... ultra high bandwidth hosts(who should be hosting for the better of the majority) killing you before they even appear on your screen.
The HARD PLACE being... Ultra high ping players teleporting around, with magical two shot burst fire getting headshots by simply firing in your general direction.
Don't even get me started on the rampant network manipulation, as P2P rewards a much network congestion as you can throw at the game.
If the community would get their head out of their asses and stop bumping shit like the Marty O'Donell story or asking for features that Bungie has stated is not in the scope of the game(matchmaking), we could absolutely get some traction behind dedicated servers... Or at least put the matter to a close... Or get Bungie to tweak the matchmaking to acceptable levels.

Edited by Scorpius XX1: 9/8/2015 4:28:50 PMHoly crap the stupid is real. You think this is the first time COD has gone on the record saying they have dedicated servers? They did it with Ghosts and Adub, and you see a freaking game informer article and call that proof? Seriously? Dude, before you go full retard, understand what is really going on, not what paid journalists tell you. They have a '' Version '' of dedicated servers, it's bullshit, it's like half of the puzzle, it is not a true dedicated connection. And if you needed any more proof then just play Blops 3, if it's anything like the Beta, as I'm sure it will be, I will be expecting your apology come November.

Edited by LEGEND_OF_1999: 9/8/2015 4:40:13 PMThe Black Ops 3 beta had dedicated servers for Xbone and PS4, though it still had some P2P games. [spoiler]Just pointing that out there.[/spoiler]
-
And I played it on Xbone, and that is a flat out lie.
-
Wrong. You can look it up if you have the mental capacity to do so.
-
Look it up? Bitch I played them, no way in this world that laggy shit infested crap fest of a game, any of them, ran on a dedicated connection. You sir are the one that is wrong. You have probably never been more wrong. On second thought....
-
Oh wait, I forgot that it wouldn't play on Xbox. My mistake.
-
uh huh
-
I'm too lazy to read that. Can somebody give me the lowdown on that
