OMG the update is still not here for europe!

also where is this soccer thing? i cant find it in the game!

they really should have had some better instructions, and some arrows in the menus for those who WERENT in the beta!

You have to go to Find a game and select the soccer map.

PATCH IS UP FOR EUROPE!

:woot: Only 13MB too, so it downloads in seconds!

EDIT: Whatever they did, they've done well. I've just joined three games at the first attempt of trying, and experienced no lag what-so-ever! :D

Finally able to put some time into this game!

Man, i'm pretty worried now. I used my debt card with them so i don't know if i'll get any calls from my bank. Going to have to check any charges to my account.

Nearly ?300 was stolen from me recently, used to buy an airplane ticket somewhere in the Czech Republic. I'm 99% sure it has to do with ShopTo as well, because I rarely ever use my CC. So anyone who had a CC tied to their ShopTo account back when their Database was exposed, get a new card.

Yeah I have used shopto this year.

Done a bit of searching around the internet this week and it quickly becomes apparent that a lot of those fraudulent transactions happen to people who have used shopto.

From what I understand it seems the bad guys try a phone top up as you don’t have to speak to an actually human over the phone, this is to test the card should the purchase go through then they would move on to buying more extravagant purchases.

Lucky for me the bank has stopped the purchase and cancelled my card immediately, just waiting for a replacement.

Damn really?

I got phoned a few weeks back by Halifax fraud saying a ?25 or ?30 (cant remember which) phone top up was attempted, and a ?1.79 "tester charge". They asked me to confirm if it was me, I said noooo, payments blocked, no card issued. I thought to myself how the ****? As the bank account it's tied to hasn't been used by me since March this year (old student account).

Now it clicks, that account used to be used for my ShopTo account. I thought that was suppose to just be a "scare", Shop:no:no:

Only just read your comments guys, but yup, exactly the same story. They said people use top up cards for testers and if they get away with it they'll move onto more expensive items. My bank spotted it and called me right away. They mentioned a charge for 99p which I actually thought was legit and a purchase from the App Store on iTunes, but after reading AB's comments it looks like it was another fraud attempt.

.Kick from Neowin also had some trouble with his bank a few months ago which he pretty much led back to Shopto. A frickin' j(N) (N)

cant you report the site?

also just curious which airport in CZ? if you have the details maybe you could track em down :)

Shopto already released an official statement/comment on the security breach they had. According to them though, no personal details were taken, which was obviously a huge lie.

It's not the actual site stealing the money, so I don't think there is anything you can report them for.

This is basically all the information I have, it's from my bank statement;

"CSA AIRLINE 06476908" 14/07/2009

And yes, I did get my money bank after a lot of paper work.

    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
    • Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
