Allegedly this will get you banned from the beta. Not sure if it's an actively enforced rule though.

I as mentioned earlier, that same thing was done thousands of times during the COD4 beta and nobody was ever banned. You just couldn't play with the people you shared it with.

Maybe its different this time, I don't know. I'm just trying to speculate using what happened last time.

I just got an email this morning from COD.com saying they are giving me another key (I guess I didn't need the VIP status after all, eh Michael :p)

Again, I'll only be giving it away to a regular member of the GH. Will do it tonight when I get home from uni :)

I played for a bit last night, after getting lucky and being able to stay connected to XBL for more than 15 minutes and it was OK. All the way up to the point where 2 people glitched under the Roundhouse map. :angry: At that point, I realized I've had enough of the beta.

@ .Kick, DL...

If you want to play some MP together, let me know. It's probably the only way I'm going to play anymore until it gets released.

I might be around tonight guys too, we shall see. I'm going out this afternoon so I'm not sure what time I'll get back. I think Dirty and Green Eye know what happens when we get our Neowin group together. :D

Pwnage. Pure and unadulterated Pwnage :rofl:

Anyone still have any codes? My new-old coworker (i worked with him at an old job, I left, and now he works with me at my new job) would like one if possible, so figured it does not hurt to ask.

Haha but be honest DL take away Mystic and you take away the Pwnage :laugh:

Don't look now but I think me and you, we kinda suck (in comparison) :p

It's all good and well because we always have buckets of fun (Y)

Larry, thanks for looking out, and habnad, thank you so much for the code.

As far as the game goes, it's okay. I'd personally stick to COD4. Also, the textures seem really weird to me.

I do however, really like the game mode WAR. really reminds me of battlefield, and it's the only mode Larry, Habnad, and I don't totally suck in LOL.

      I've been using MWB Premium for a number of years so that along with Windows updates and updated browser should be fine. Thanks for that.

      For some reason I suddenly have the urge to go shopping at Sears.

      So I did a quick test based on 3+ different public instances from the litany at searx.space ... and it spins everything rather differently. It seems that SearXNG is a meta-search engine (queries multiple search indexes rather than only Google's or Bing's or Wikipedia's or Reddit's) that operates in two modes: > public instances ... each instance opens itself to outside users who piggyback on its cached search history; this instance's own identity becomes known/tracked but end-users are hidden similar to an anonymization proxy; this instance's querying of major search indexes may be API based [rated limited, blocked, etc.]). > private instances ... your private install/instance that itself queries multiple (configurable) search indexes of crawled web content; every major Search Engine associates all traffic to your private instance (so your traffic is tracked via network usages) but client-side tracking (your own browser/computer specs) is flushed because it's a "server" doing the querying rather than your browser. My test asked the same 1 question to the 3+ engines and they all returned vastly different results: some had CAPTCHA failures against Google, some had failures against Wikipedia, and the actual results were also different -- some had auto-complete enabled, others returned a wikipedia highlighted excerpt despite the Wikipedia failure (hinting at results being cached from previous keyword matching), and others just gave an Are-You-Human non-CAPTCHA loop before returning random results. So this begs the caveat: Search query results will vary based on which instance is used because every instance queries the other search indexes separate (and thus its results are influenced on that instance's aggregate search history and index-access limitations). The major distinctions for SearXNG versus DDG or Brave: > The search UI is 'untracked' since no UI trackers are baked-in which would phone home or lay cookies into your browser (for DDG/Brave usage stats), > There is no 'crawler' that canvasses the Internet to discover fresh content (it leaves that to the major search indexes), > Queries multiple search indexes ("meta-search engine") based on the configurations and usage history of the server instance, > Privacy-friendly due to its ability to shield user tracking via standing up a non-local server instance connectable to major VPN providers: queries would all appear to come from general VPN/Proxy providers rather than your private instance (whether installed locally or on your own VPS in the cloud). PS: I've previously come across specialized search engines of this nature that indexes searches across media assets like YT, OF, etc. SearXNG seems to be a good backbone...if the rate-limiting/captcha/etc. issues were resolved.
