I've not received it yet, but I wouldn't mind telling them what I think about the game :p

edit: wait, why are MGS conducting the survey for a game made by EA/DICE :huh:

Believe me, I told them what I thought about it!

You are receiving this message because you are part of the MGS Beta program.

This is the part I don't get. :huh:

This couldnt have been for the beta. The end of survey asked alot of questions about Conquest.

Microsoft is planning on buying DICE, making it a 1. party developer.

Yes going to go with Massiveterra and have to doubt you. :p Turns out after looking through some old emails, and signing into my account at the MS Connect site, I signed up for some MGS Beta Program awhile back.

I completely forgot that I did it. This is the first time I've gotten any sort of communication from MGS.

Does Anybody have a spare that they dont need, getting the unlock for the Sniper rifle is basing my decision on getting the game, as the rest of the 5 for 5 are easily gettable to a degree.

so far what iv played while borrowing it from a friend is its pretty cool.

Pretty much everyone here does not have the sniper rifle unlock, in fact I do not know of 1 person who does have it. Having that unlocked though should not be the decision maker in getting the game though :) You mention you have played it a little so you know what it's like, buy it, you won't regret it :)

I had a funny team kill the other night. I was stuck in a house, only way out easily was a door so I went to knife it and for some damn, unexplained reason, a teammate was right behind me and jumped in front. BAM! Knifed him and the door! I couldn't stop laughing.

As far as the MP compared to CoD4, BF is hands-down more fun. I was really high on CoD4 when it came out and I loved it but as time went on and BF came out, I found the MP so much more fun and exciting on BF. I went and tried CoD4 MP the other day to see if I could get back into it. 15 minutes later I was done and since I beat the SP, I'll be trading it in. I'm not sure I can even explain why that is. It just didn't feel right at all. BF is a game you can join in at any time and have fun with. If you aren't leveled up on CoD4, forget it.

It will be released as either part of paid DLC or for free in a foreseeable future, that's what they said.

Well that's good to know (Y) As long as the DLC isn't for the gun alone, then that'll be ok. They should bundle it with new maps or game modes ala GRAW2 style.

I finally unlocked the Uzi last night after trying for ages to get in a match on the Demo. All I have left is the sniper obviously, but I won't even use it tbh, I just want it for completion sake.

Finally, have the house to myself for an entire week - late night gaming :woot:

Anyone playing tonight?

Think my guild will be raiding old content tonight, so I may all of a sudden loose my internet right when we start, and appear on x360. If not I'll be on at some point.

If I went back to playing like I did, I could easily do that :p But I'm that bored of the game I can't play for long sessions anymore.

I've ordering chinese takeaway and will maybe watch a tv/movie, then I'll be back on. So probably around 10. Maybe earlier.

So I finished the Demo to earn the Uzi, plenty of games going on last night.

@Sethos and Munky, I remember playing a week ago or so, and a question came up about the physics engine used, it is indeed Havok. It says so in the trademark screen.

Also, is it true that if you play the SP on Hard, the acheivements do not stack, and you dont get normal difficulty acheivements at same time?

That is correct the achievements do not stack, which is why they have seperate achievements for each level. The gold/weapon finding is different, in that you can unluck the achievement in any level, you but in order to gain the found them all achievement you have to replay each level to find the missing ones. Handily when you finish the game, there is a list of levels you can replay with a list of what you missed 3 gold 2 weapons etc ...

Yeah most games have seperate achievements per level for each difficulty, but alot of them stack.

Oh Well.

    • I have really been nerding out on my desktop icons and feel compelled to share...

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I missed this when you first posted it, but those are awesome icons! I would normally prefer things to be uniform, but each of those icons seems to fit perfectly for the game! If I may ask though, what was your thought process on which icons are circular - MK makes sense - and which ones should be rectangular or square?
    • Microsoft Paint used to be my favorite Windows app as a kid, and it's still pretty good

      By WaltC · Posted

      What I like about Paint is using it almost exclusively for cropping and resizing images I get elsewhere--it's quick, easy and cheap... I keep it glued to my taskbar, in fact. Also, the clipping tool comes in handy, as well (hit print scrn on the keyboard and it activates immediately.)

      I still remember it fondly today. It was so cool to work in 64-color Half Bright mode and 4.096-color HAM mode (interlaced) when x86 was still in 4-color CGA or 16-color EGA low res. C= never realized what it had until it was far too late--the failure of C= was the failure of its top management. The C= Amiga was 20 years ahead of its time, I always thought. It didn't hurt that in only 512k of chip memory, the Amiga could preemptively multitask when Apple was still doing gray scale graphics on tiny screens and along with everyone else was doing cooperative multitasking (running more than one app at a time in resident memory, but you could only run one of them at a time--had to manually switch between them.) I had a ball with AREXX scripting running between programs that had AREXX ports so that when you sent other applications data and instructions, those running applications could process the same in real time to output! Memories...

      I'm not sure about that, but it at least "does" a version of 7.1 that this brand new card doesn't....
