[Official] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2


Recommended Posts

Having played over the weekend online for about 15 hours...I gotta say for my first FPS on a console I am getting the hang of the controls :D Going to pick up Killzone 2 at some point....can't believe I hadn't tried these games on my PS3 cause I thought "nothing can beat a mouse and keyboard"...

Must admit I'm liking the online play and have some great matches, even though I am rubbish and only a rank 16 just now :p

Pics like these make me laugh and remind me why I'm not buying this game (Squires is hosting).

IWNet is ****ing terrible outside of America by the sounds of it (as expected). Another Australian video review says that the game will pick a US host even if there's 1 US player and 8 other Aussies. :|

Its unfortunate, as no dedicated server and good bandwidth does cause trouble. But these things cost alot of money. I can see the only wahy of getting these is through a subscription.

But for me, I've not had that much trouble, I've had a few games be a bit laggy at the start.... *hugs his 50Mb with 1.5Mb upload*

I really enjoyed the snow mobile race in Spec Ops - Epic fun (Y)

Got a question here, yesterday me and a friend wanted to play some Hardcore TDM. As I'm the only one high enough rank to select Hardcore I had to be lobby "host". Each time I clicked the game-mode, any game-mode in fact, my game crashed with "iw4mp.exe". Now I just tried alone and got the same crash error! This hasn't happened before.

Anyone read about this particular issue, is this a local problem or a general problem with the game? It's really annoying =/ We tried like 8-9 times with me starting the lobby and it crashed every single time! He tried hosting once and game started fine, the game after I was able to find one match, then it started crashing again after that - Really weird.

Really? I though it was kinda lame and the only fun part was when going downhill really fast

Vehicle missions in COD just generally suck because the physics and steering is awful :p

Oh I agree about the steering...the steering of the snow mobile was atrocious but the speed and the adrenaline was cool

Man, I love how all of the perks are actually viable. In the first game, some of them were never even worth considering. In this one, they can all make a difference.

Got my first remote view for getting the winning kill :cool:

In that game I had a stupid kill where it triggered a billion messages...headshots, kills from hip, kills with steady head, kills with stopping power, payback, revenge, stopping a kill streak, recovering from a death streak...it distracted me so much I got melee'd :angry:

Bad timing and alignments then :p

    • 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
