Quote "To celebrate the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Channel 4 is giving away the ultimate action weekend in Prague, where one lucky winner and their friend will be immersed into a two day experience full of adventure and adrenaline."

"More I think about that airport bit the more I think Infinity Ward have lost their minds... I mean, really: way to set the public image of videogaming back a decade."

Oh it's funny because it's true. Can't wait for the Taboids to rag on the airport bit this week. Cue their gaming column praising it as the second coming of Christ by the end of the week though.

A few of my buddies managed to get it early from some friends at gaming stores, I am told the stats all reset on the official release date.

Not really bothered about stats, its more player experience... go into a map and at least one or two of them have been playing for a week or so already

You'll learn most maps on the second play though, they aren't BF2 big, they are reasonable large though. A bit bigger than most seen in CoD4.

Leads to some tense TDM, there'll be silence for a few seconds then bursts of gunfire followed by a nade going off before it goes silent again. :p

Ugg, didn't really want to hear that but I guess I'll just have to experience it for myself.

Don't get me wrong there are smaller maps where you'll end up running in to people almost every time you spawn. If you want constant gun battles try Domination.

Weeeee completed the SP on vet in under 11 hours. God this game is short.

That's where I spent most of my time on the original, so it sounds like this will be the same. Thanks for the heads up!

Aye, they spawn you REALLY close to the markers so you don't go far to find a fight.

Anyway, you ******* better be on MP tomorrow. :p

Is the 25 kill streak a myth then?

in the video linked ^^ he has to have wayyy more than 25 after the chopper spree

Currently downloading so can't watch the vid. But how I understand it is that if you get a kill streak through the care package it doesn't count towards the nuke.

he only got things like UAV via care package, helicopter and harrier were unlocked by him being pretty good.

And a farkin camper. :p If people kept getting sniped from there, why did they not realize that he was always going to be there and shoot his a** down with a sniper also? The people he was playing against sucked.

People are stupid. Hell I got to 7 kills with a pistol! That says it all :(

A kill is a kill none the less. :p

True, but you would think that the people would catch on to where he was. :/

Explain what you mean by camper? I always love to hear people say that, /sarcasm.

Well not necessarily a camper because he is a sniper, but as I said, if he was always there the people should have caught on and just sniped him.

Exactly. They just run around like morons doing whatever most of the time.

Having control of the chopper lasts WAY too long. They need to trim that down to 15 seconds max. He easily got 7-10 kills each time he got the chopper...not really liking how unbalanced that is...

Depends on the map. One set in the slums in Brazil almost renders it useless.

Kinda hard to kill him though when all he has to do is fall back, look to the other side, get a couple kills and he has another kill streak and wipes them out again...

    • So they saved ton of money by using AI resulting in loss of crap load of money in recalls and expenses. Bravo. Management needs to be replaced by AI, not engineers.
    • Ditto that, I have a few Alexa devices around the house to control lighting and such for a disabled person I live with, and it shows a *lot* of ads on the display. The dots are simple but effective. A lot cheaper too.
    • Go for a Echo Dot or Pop instead. These Echo shows just advertise to you.

NetSpeedTray v1.3.3: The Updater Fix A stabilization release that repairs a critical regression in v1.3.2: the app shipped without OpenSSL, which silently broke every HTTPS request — including the built-in update checker (the "Could not check for updates" error many of you hit). This release restores it, hardens the build so it can't happen again, and fixes a startup crash plus four other reported bugs. Changes: Fixed update checking — Resolved a critical issue that prevented the app from checking for updates ("Could not check for updates"). Fixed startup crash with Auto-Cycling — The app no longer crashes on launch after enabling Cycle display mode. Fixed incorrect network speeds on 10GbE adapters — Multi-gigabit network cards now display speeds correctly instead of being stuck at 0. Improved color coding — Default color is shown when idle, and color/threshold changes now apply immediately without restarting. Fullscreen visibility fix — The widget now correctly stays visible over fullscreen apps when Keep Visible is enabled. Improved AMD Ryzen temperature detection — More reliable CPU temperature monitoring for Ryzen processors. Cleaner upgrades — Installer now removes outdated application files during upgrades, preventing DLL/version conflicts while preserving user settings. Improved stability — Fixed potential DLL loading issues by excluding critical OpenSSL and NumPy components from UPX compression. Better settings window — Scrollbars removed and layout improved for a cleaner experience. Localization improvements — Updated translations and completed missing UI text across all supported languages. More reliable releases — Added regression tests covering recent critical fixes, bringing the test suite to 196 passing tests.
