Good Connection?

As much as I like playing Halo 4 online, it becomes increasingly impossible to play due to connection problems. I remember on Halo: Reach, there were a variety of matchmaking options you could choose from, one being "Good Connection" which selected players from your local region. Being from Australia, it's almost impossible to play online from 12:00 PM to 10:00 PM due to all the Americans being online. Don't get me wrong, I don't care about playing with Americans and have nothing against them, plus they offer a better challenge than most other players, however what I don't like is that my bullets seem to want to come out of my gun 2 seconds after I snap back the RT as well as the unresponsiveness of the controller in general which makes online matchmaking both frustrating and boring. So, would there ever be a chance of having Servers or maybe even just putting a Connection setting in for matchmaking so there might be a cut down on the lag?

I live in Melbourne, and I do not have this problem, might just be that you Internet isn't as good as it needs to be.

It isn't my internet, My NAT settings are Open and my Upload is fine. A lot of people are in the same boat. My whole friends list started playing COD because Halo had too much lag and no servers. Every game I go into, there is an American host and naturally, that causes my Ping to be really bad. I never had this problem with Reach because there would always be an Australian Host.
