Damn... THAT bad? Wow.

the beta anyways. I know you shouldn't judge a beta but it was BAD. at least the bad company beta was fun, i actually got addicted to the beta for a little while. This is one seemed like a washed up version of battlefield and call of duty combined.

I'm sure they'll have zombies, it was one of the best features of WaW. I dunno why but I'm having real trouble getting excited about this game. I took the day off to play MW2 when it came out, but this i'm just thinking "meh, i'll probably buy it i guess".

Well, that's good, since Activision isn't making this game.

Just like Activision didn't make MW2?

About the zombies.. I could have sworn the xbox 360 and ps3 collectors editions, or maybe pre orders were advertised as coming with the zombie maps. And that pc folks had to buy them as dlc or something along those lines.

It's a shame Gun Game is only available in wager matches, that's perhaps a bit too cut-throat for me - I'm such a poor loser, I'd be ragefacing constantly :laugh:

I have to admit, the game is looking more and more appealing for every bit of information they release. I thought at first, based on the Multiplayer reveal footage that it wasn't a full blown theatre mode because you had to place a camera (?) but apparently it is, with free camera controls, slowmotion and the whole nine yards! One of the only features I loved about Halo that I wanted to see in other games.

The player and weapon customization is awesome, the fact you can specifically buy weapons you want and start contracts instead of that massively tedious linear progression of unlocking and chasing challenges. Even all the weapons they put in look fantastic, the GALIL?! Such an awesome gun.

Now my only biggest worry is the random aspect from MW2 - I sincerely hope Treyarch put in some Hardcore barebone for every mode, then I'd be all over this puppy in a heartbeat. ( They are also the only ones to split up Hardcore and Softcore in WaW, unlike IW that just mash them together. )

As much as I want to, I simply can't hate a game that is getting so many "Most wanted" features :wub:

Thank god for that, imagine how much custom they'd have lost.. having to pay two seperate subscriptions to play one game, especially as the LIVE prices are going up aswell.

Yeah but they do have a Call of Duty MMO in the works, that is sure to have a monthly subscription.

    • JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements by David Uzondu JetBrains has released the fifth EAP version of Rider 2026.2, bringing a faster startup flow with the new non-modal startup screen and quality-check hooks for Claude Code and Codex. In the latest EAP release, Rider now has newly bundled "quality-check" hooks that run background tests on code edits before the external agent proceeds. For example, after Claude Code rewrites a class, Rider immediately triggers a PostToolUse hook that analyzes the code for syntax errors and formatting warnings. It then passes those findings back to the model as feedback, allowing the agent to fix its own output before finalizing the task. If Rider detects compilation errors, the IDE prevents the agent from treating the task as complete, while minor formatting warnings simply help guide the model toward better output. The "Explain with AI" feature can now tackle tricky build errors directly from the console, helping .NET developers who frequently wrestle with multi-targeting failures and MSBuild errors. JetBrains introduced Explain with AI back in the 2024.1 release cycle. With this feature, instead of forcing developers to copy long diagnostics into a separate chat window, Rider now lets you trigger these explanations directly from the error source. In similar EAP news, JetBrains recently opened the first EAP for IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2, with features that appeal to both those who are into AI-assisted coding and those who prefer "classic" manual development. For manual developers, the release adds revamped dependency completion for Maven and Gradle build scripts, which pulls data directly from the local cache to suggest relevant versions. It also brings the Spring Debugger update, displaying security indicators next to endpoints to visualize secured routes during runtime. In addition to database migration tools for Flyway and Liquibase, this build introduces a Hibernate debugger that shows the exact SQL or HQL queries that the framework plans to execute, letting developers jump directly to the Java code that triggered them.

      I have updated my Series 9 Watch so I assume there is either a mistake in what was said, or as suggested - the new AI feature set isn’t supported on anything other than those listed above.
