Infinity Ward confirm penalising people with slow broadband connections

After the recent fiasco of the Stimulus map pack being released before the title update Infinity Wardhave confirmed that the new matchmaking system has been brought in to penalise people with rubbish connections.  Since the update the Internet has been complaining that people with slower connections are unable to find games with less then 80ms pings and often find themselves lagging in games, we approached Infinity Ward and here is the statement:

“We are officially only supporting online multiplayer games for people with 20mb+ connections to ensure that people who bring in multiple air-born killstreaks at the same time get a fair advantage in killing other players that are lagging, if you don’t like what we have done we simply don’t care because you have already purchased our product and lined our pockets with cash to spend on alcohol, drugs and strippers.  If you don’t like what we have done then you can f*** off and go play Battlefield”

We can’t reveal our source on this I’m afraid but that’s because they told us they would send the heavies around to ‘do us in’.
