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 bought this game. Played it for an hour, and then got a refund from Steam. Not a fun game at all.

      Microsoft officially launched its Copilot Cowork enterprise AI agent on June 16, 2026, switching to usage-based pricing on the same day it disclosed it is considering a Microsoft-hosted version of China's DeepSeek V4 as a lower-cost engine for the platform — a pairing that puts the company on a collision course with both its enterprise customers' security teams and a White House that has spent months trying to wall off Chinese AI from American infrastructure.................... https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318647/20260618/microsoft-eyes-deepseek-v4-copilot-cowork-what-azure-hosting-cannot-fix.htm

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes by Taras Buria Recently, Forza Horizon 6 players discovered an interesting glitch that allowed farming a crazy amount of in-game credits in a few minutes. Playground Games quickly pulled the plug on the exploit by disabling one of the game's online modes, and today, the studio is rolling out another hotfix. In my review, I complained about the game still showering gamers with cars, credits, and wheelspins. As such, earning money in Forza Horizon 6 is not a particularly difficult task. You simply have to play the game, crazy, I know. However, people still found an easier path to becoming a billionaire in Forza Horizon 6. All you had to do was purchase the Hummer EV, install a specific tune, shift in reverse while going at about 15 MPH, hit a wall, and get launched into the stratosphere at the speed of light. While mid-air, launch Eliminator and quickly get eliminated. Boom, the game just awarded you with a few million in-game credits. Initially, Playground Games disabled Eliminator to prevent people from farming credits. Now, following the release of the first balancing update, developers are rolling out a new update that re-enables Eliminator and gives users a free McLaren Sabre as a gesture of goodwill. Here is the changelog: One critical issue remains unpatched, though. There are quite a few reports of the game wiping gamers' saves, and developers are still looking into that. To avoid potential data loss, Playground Games recommends taking one of the steps outlined in a previously published support article.
