Is anybody still playing? I finally got home so I might have some free time. If not tonight (since I'm studying) tomorrow I don't have much going on.

I'm on for tomorrow (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.

You are not alone... Something really wrong about the whole graphical look of this game. Cannot for the life of me point it out but it just don't seem right.

CoD 4 is graphically better IMO.

Not a problem at all man. Just don't forget about me Feb 1st. ;)

Meant to tell you, funny thing about that, is I had told Larry right before you replied that I was going to tell you that you owed me beers! :laugh:

Yeah, I'll agree to an extent. The graphical look does seem "off" compared to COD4. But...and Larry pointed this out...there's more colors (especially on the Castle map). The buildings, the landscape, even the ground is much more colorful and bright than the majority of the original COD4 maps.

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)

Oh without any doubt, without mystic, we would never win. LOL

And I was not so impressed last night, but I only played 20 minutes.

Played a good hour and a half tonight, and it has grown on me. I definitely like War the most out of all the modes. I still do not think it is better than COD4, but with that said, I think it is pretty damn close, just obviously way different weapons, which lets be honest, the more modern guns in a COD4 are just more fun and powerful to use. That does not mean I think the weapons in this game are not fun to use, just different.

And I also do like the different take/approach on some of the perks, and also just some of the affects of using certain items, like the Gas grenade which causes you to get dizzy/disoriented, I think the way the handled that specific one is a cool approach.

Also as habnad pointed out I said, I personally think the graphics are just as good as COD4, it is just there is a very different color palette used in certain maps than compared to COD4 (so much so in the Castle Map), so it does have a slightly different look to it overall, but I personally think the graphics look almost identical to COD4.

So I actually like it overall. Still not sure if it is a definite purchase, but that is simply because of the overwhelming about of games being released soon, and nothing else.

It feels alot like CoD 4, which is a good thing imo. But I totally love the gun sounds. They sound awesome, way better than they did in CoD 3 actually. The maps are nice, and the flow of the game feels pretty solid. So, I'll probably pick it up for PC when it comes out, maybe for the 360 later if I see it turns out to be as popular as the previous game currently is :)

Cheers for the games Habnad, Massiveterra and Larry. Definitely made the game more fun but I am still not liking it a whole deal. Like Massiveterra said, the textures do seem pretty off but they do have more colour than COD4 I suppose.

Oh and dogs are so annoying!

I love dogs but I was more then happy to put continuous rounds of shotguns shells into the ones presented in this game. So annoying :|

And DL I agree with the color selection being more vibrant now but something about the way the games looks still bugs me. It's not as crisp as CoD 4 was. CoD 4 had the "wow" effect on me the first time I played it which was online and I kept getting that "wow" feeling many times after so for lack of technical words I didn't get that "wow" feeling with this game :p :laugh:

First thing I noticed was, it looked like the game ran at a very low resolution compared to Call of Duty 4, lots of jaggies and every texture also seemed low-res and very muddy ( Not war-muddy just low-res muddy ).

Maybe that's just me?

HOW THE HELL CAN DOGS KILL ME WITH ONE BITE!?!?!?!?

They only kill you in one bite if you look at them :) You can hear them coming from quite far away so it's not that bad. No where near as annoying as the chopper in COD4 catching you out after the game decides to spawn you way out in the open.

    • SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers by Karthik Mudaliar SpaceX reportedly wants to sell mobile phone plans directly to consumers in the United States as part of a wider expansion of Starlink. According to a report from the Financial Times, SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell discussed the plan with investors during the company’s recent IPO roadshow. The company is also said to be considering building a terrestrial mobile network to complement Starlink’s satellite coverage. The plan is quite different from how Starlink currently operates in the U.S. mobile market. SpaceX already provides satellite connectivity for T-Mobile’s T-Satellite service, but T-Mobile remains responsible for the subscription, billing, and customer support. A Starlink-branded mobile service would give SpaceX control of the customer relationship instead. It could also turn the company from a partner of traditional mobile operators into a direct competitor. T-Mobile also began testing its Starlink-powered satellite service in early 2025. The beta was initially limited to text messaging and was also available to some AT&T and Verizon customers. The service has since expanded to support limited data access through selected apps, including WhatsApp, Google Maps, AccuWeather, and AllTrails. It is designed to provide a connection in areas where normal cell towers are unavailable, rather than replace a conventional mobile network. However, if SpaceX actually has a plan to serve nationwide, it needs to do more than just satellite networks and actually support on-ground operations. It can also partner up with existing carriers and become a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). With that said, SpaceX has already spent heavily to support its mobile ambitions. Just last year, the company agreed to acquire wireless spectrum licences from EchoStar in deals worth a combined $19.6 billion. EchoStar's spectrum includes AWS-4, H-Block, and AWS-3 frequencies that could be used for both satellite and terrestrial communications. According to a SpaceX securities filing, the Federal Communications Commission approved the transaction in May 2026, although it is not expected to close until late 2027. There's no official statement by SpaceX for now. Pricing, availability, and other details remain unknown. Source: Financial Times
