Just read up on what is or rather isn't featured in this latest evolution and will not be purchasing a copy until the price for the PC version drops significantly. Think I'll be taking a look at Dragon Age instead and hopefully Mass Effect 2 in the New Year.

Very cryptic post sox, whats the requisite feature that's missing, I'm curious.


Have finished main campaign andstill have no idea whatsoever what it was all about.


Ratty, use your claymores by the ladders and entry hatches so you can concentrate on the approaching forces.

Nice tip MP. Hoping to get some fire time tonight!


I read the campaign story on wikipedia so I sort of understadn it. HAd a bit of online last night too and it really rocked. Cannot wait to learn the maps!


Sean - I noticed that too - virtually all my friends were on it!

Had to load a couple of updates and then was asked if I wanted to skip a scene which I might find disturbing. I know there's one part which has had complaints but I have no idea what it is and I am looking forward to finding out. (Please don't tell me!). What I wanted to know was is the option a new thing added after release or was it there from release?

Hi MP, it's the 9v9 limitation, no private servers, no modding. Have they nerfed the ability for clans to meet up and arrange events?


Owing to the crapiness of my connection and reflexes I never had much joy with competitive multiplayer, always got fragged repeatedly which wasn't fun. If you can't arrange matches between players of a similar ability then it all gets very tiresome.

All fair points sox. I actually dint really have a problem with the numbers limitations as the levels so well designed and the game types so nicely balanced that actually it doesn't make much of a difference to me.

Plus the dying thing was a put off when I embarked on COD multiplayer in WaW, then I realised that noone else really cares and I just ploughed through the dying alot stage until I started dying less then got to the point where I was holding my own.

I find it's less about reaction and much more about knowing the level inside out and anticipaing where people will be.

The touches like the uav's air support, artillery (now predator drones) and now you get bonuses if you're dying alot to help those finding heir feet.


But it is much less tactical than say the battlefield games. As I said, give ARMA 2 a go (I'm guessing you're talking PC, judging by talk of modding). It's endlessly customizable, huge and you can define your own scenarios to the nth degree.

I definitely prefer the PC for these types of games, Battlefield, Flashpoint, etc, and personally nothing beats a mouse/keyboard combo, and I fell that generally the console versions are a cut down edition of the PC versions but lack of a decent gaming rig or the space to set it up means I'll just have to stick to the Xbox for now, which is not a bad second.

I do miss the multiplayer flexibility though, it is nice to brows servers and stick to ones with the same group of people and/or avoid servers full of noddys.

Got an email from Amazon saying they are refunding me ?11 due to pre order price promise I guess because Sainsburys selling it so cheap. Amazon are great at what they do, as it did peeve me a bit when I paid ?38 and could have got it for ?26. That said my local Sainsburys in Chislehurst had sold out and still don't have any.

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
    • So dangerous!    Can you be more specific about the road this was in and when you report it?  Maybe there’s some CCTV footage available
