Call of Duty 4, Neowin Style!


Recommended Posts

I had not even touched COD4 since before GTA IV's release until yesterday, but if we can start consistently doing Neowin private matches more often like we did tonight, it will definitely drag me away from Battlefield: Bad Company.

Seriously everyone, that was an incredibly fun time. We WITHOUT A DOUBT have to do that more often.

So even though I sucked I did not even care, it was really so much fun as you knew everyone you were killing, and in my case, being killed by.

Gonna be tough for me to play tomorrow as my wife has put up with a lot of gaming lately, but if it is going down again, I will definitely give it a shot.

EDIT - And oh yeah, I meant to say I told you guys so about mystic in that other thread!

My man is a COD4 machine. :alien:

I didn't really have a pizza delivery, I was ****ed at getting shot all the time by mystic :ninja:

Honest Guv.

The pizza was cold though when delivered, not very nice, didn't realise I could have got my money back until Peter (CommonSquare) mentioned it :(

Yeah we should really play more often with members of Neowin. I know everyone has their RL friends they like to play with as well, but there is no problem inviting them along. As long as their not ass holes of course :p

Definitely makes playing more enjoyable when you can come back to the forums and talk about what happened the night before etc (Y)

Dam, sounds like I missed a good time...hopefully next time I can be around for the private matches. I'll apologize for that a** that followed me into that S&D round we had Friday night. Sorry all...

On a side note that may or may not be funny, I went out to dinner tonight, and I'm thinking I play just a little too much COD. I saw Cod on the menu and I read it as C O D. :laugh:

Damn, looks like I'm really late. I should check Microsoft more often. I know DL's got me, but anybody else, please add me. I'll be getting back on here, now that I got COD4 back, and I'm game for some matches. Always hated playing COD4 by myself. Just need to set-up times, and I'll try to make any I can.

yeah that's pretty much a sure sign you've played too much, along with Larry dreaming about games :laugh: I'm in the same boat btw lol.

I actually missed your witty banter last night! Just wasn't the same haha.

Not sure how much I will be on tonight. I've only had 6 hours sleep or something and might not be back to this afternoon.

I had some good fun last night guys, was good to get in on the action for once :p and next time I'll have to dig my mic out so I can actually talk too... :blush:

And I agree with everyone else, Mystic must be taken down :ninja:

Is there any chance we can make a thing with everyone's Gamertag in so we can all see all the Neowinians who play?

There is the Xbox Live Gamertags topic with most of the regulars gamertags posted along with the games they own.

Also, the Neowin Matchup topic if you want to find games to play with someone.

I dropped you multiple invites yesterday, you were playing Rock Band I believe..

Sorry, had my girlfriend over (she gets pretty annoyed when I'm playing games without her, lol).

Also note, I keep my Xbox on a lot and am not always near it. Sorry though, it's nothing personal! :)

I'll play soon.

    • Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft’s recently announced MAI-Code-1-Flash model is now generally available to GitHub Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers. With this support, organizations can have more centralized policy controls and billing while finally being able to use Microsoft’s lightweight, first-party coding model. According to GitHub’s announcement, Business and Enterprise plan administrators must enable the MAI-Code-1-Flash policy in Copilot settings before developers can access the model. Microsoft says that MAI-Code-1-Flash is for fast, iterative coding work rather than the most demanding architectural or debugging tasks. GitHub’s official model comparison page says that the model is great for "general-purpose coding and writing," while it excels at fast, accurate code completions and explanations Microsoft introduced MAI-Code-1-Flash on June 2 as part of a broader collection of internally developed MAI models. GitHub subsequently expanded support to Copilot CLI, the Copilot cloud agent, GitHub.com chat, GitHub Mobile, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode, but said support for managed Business and Enterprise customers was still on the way. In Microsoft’s own benchmark testing, MAI-Code-1-Flash scored 51.2% on SWE-Bench Pro, compared with 35.2% for Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 4.5. Microsoft also claimed that the model used up to 60% fewer tokens on SWE-Bench Verified. Do note that these are vendor-run results rather than independent measurements. The model is billed at provider list pricing under GitHub’s usage-based system. GitHub currently lists MAI-Code-1-Flash at $0.75 per million input tokens, $0.075 per million cached input tokens, and $4.50 per million output tokens. For organizations, the main incentive to use MAI-Code-1-Flash is likely to be efficiency rather than maximum capability. A smaller model that responds quickly and limits unnecessary output is quite useful for repetitive agent tasks at scale, especially after GitHub Copilot’s move toward usage-based billing. The "Flash" model is recommended for fast work and not necessarily for huge repositories with loads of context. It's better if teams compare their output with other larger models, especially if they're working on security-sensitive changes and complex, multi-file work.
    • yes AND no the "original" or plain/normal Optiplex 7010 won't be getting any more new firmware updates BUT the Optiplex SFF/SFF Plus {small form factor}, Micro/Micro Plus & Tower/Tower Plus 7010 editions DO get new updates such as this new one   and here are similar guides from the Dell web site for Dell systems: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000390990/secure-boot-transition-faq https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000347876/microsoft-2011-secure-boot-certificate-expiration
