Recommended Posts

Yep, I have until 8, then have to go food shopping. :|

I have to stop to cook and have dinner...then may be back on if "allowed", without getting too much grief. :blink:

Thought you said you had ALOT of work to do? Get to it!!! :laugh:

Also going to pick up a new headset at lunch time. I think mine died last night in that last round. Dont want to chance not being able to communicate.

Not to derail the topic, but anyone have an opinion on the Turtle Beach headsets? Other then the price...

As just posted in the BF:BC thread (damn this is getting hard work now to keep tabs on things :p) I have been invited to offer support for a friend who has a gig tonight, so I wont be around until 1am ish (GMT) which is 9pm and 7pm respectively for our US friends :p

Look forward to seeing you online then.

Did you mean 8pm for East Coast and 5pm for West Coast?

East Coast is 5 hours behind and West Coast is 8!

Since I know Dirty and a couple of others have said they would be available tonight, I think I will be back home from The Dark Night by around 9pm (central time) or so for those in the US that will be around.

I'll be around as well (EST), and I sent you a Friend Request as you mentioned a few pages back. Gamertag same as here.

I forgot I said 10 PM British time, which is 11 PM for me - So I was expecting to start at 10 PM all along :laugh: God I'm such a tool.

Nah you ain't a tool , easy mistake to make (Y)

Can I remind everyone to make sure their NAT is open as COD4 used to have issues where if someone's NAT wasn't open then they couldn't get in the game that the whole Lobby connected to and thus kicked back to Lobby!(EG - 5 people got in the game, 1 person didn't!) Not sure if they have fixed it though :s

Also, check your NAT status before you begin - The game is really picky about NAT statuses and would love to have a trouble free evening.

Okay then, going to check my NAT now in preperation for when I sign on to play in 30 minutes give or take a few minutes.

Great!

I'll be sending out invites in a few minutes, so everyone who's joining us from the start should get online now.

Then we'll send out invites between the rounds for everyone joining in late.

I still don't know how many we are going to be, so private server or not, I don't know.

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
