Just had a game on Arica Harbour as Russians with my two mates in our own squad defending the first point, which we held completely without losing 1 objective. The part that fucked me off was no one in the whole 16 man team was assault to resupply ammo. So in the end when I had no ammo left I had to take an enemies assault kit and resupply myself. None of us could go assault as we never died and were in a good position so didn't suicide.Yeah. Good job human team.

The real sad part that comes with this is you can only invite 4 friends to your squad therefore, you cannot have large party games. Its my only real grudge agaisnt the game right now.

With all the money they had made, I thought we would be seeing at least something that did not look the exact same as the Fallout 3/Oblivion.

wtf, are these real? If so that is bad.

I didn't come across any bugs when I played it. None that I can remember anyway. Still, the server browser is rubbish. Unlike most other games - where the search results are displayed as it searches - this game does a full search before displaying anything. Boo.

Hah, Dice never learns, that has always been the problem with BF's server browser You can't even back out/exit betweeen rounds.

FOV is only vertical, I have changed it and it's bad.

Have you ever played a Battlefield game before? Its always been like this minus the FOV. And at least finally they have added a hardcore mode which is a nice change of pace although I perfer living longer in normal mode, heh.

Where are all your old POW maps?

Hey dark! Long time no see. Last time I installed Quake 3, some months ago, I could hardly find any of the original Prisoner of War installations... and only a few of my maps survived the merger with JB:PoW. So... sadly I don't have any backups of those maps.

The game is great fun, especially with friends in your squad.

My favorite map of all is Atacama Desert for both Rush and Conquest. It seems to be the largest level in the game and includes 2 tanks, armored vehicle and copter on both teams. White Pass is also very large.'

What I miss about BC1 Conquest Mode. The sprawling open levels such as the huge farmland or the Golf course. I hope to see these maps come in free dlc.

Now thats out of the way here are my rants about BC2:

- The maps for conquest are even smaller then those in BC1, but some are very well made and a lot of fun.

- At the start of Valparaso if Defending in Rush Mode, you are completely shoved into small corners where it feels like all you can do is camp. Rest of the map felt better tbh.

- US army vehicles = AWESOME< fast and handle with agility, but the Russian Vehicles = Slower and less agility. The Russian copter has to be the worst; very hard to steer compared to the US. This completely unbalanced the vehicles in the game.

- No radios / No way to tell another squad for support ( not that I know of)

- Hey, all great games have them but one that really steamed my rollers last night was a rollback of my perks. I spent an hour and some in a conquest game when the next map loaded up and I notcied everything I unlocked in the previous game had rolled back somehow.

- pockets of a level that make the world vanish, heh.

- No Interface feedback at times of who won or lost the game.

- Cannot use weapons for so many seconds when re-spawning (maybe an added feature not in the demo, I donno)

"Former Infinity Ward heads Vince Zampella and Jason West are bringing a lawsuit against Activision for breach of contract and other claims, after Activision terminated their employment on March 1. The press release announcing the suit claims that Activision was scheduled to pay "substantial royalty payments," but fired them before the date of the payment.

"Instead of thanking, lauding, or just plain paying Jason and Vince for giving Activision the most successful entertainment product ever offered to the public," attorney Robert Schwartz said, "last month Activision hired lawyers to conduct a pretextual 'investigation' into unstated and unsubstantiated charges of 'insubordination' and 'breach of fiduciary duty,' which then became the grounds for their termination on Monday, March 1st."

In addition to compensation, the suit seeks to return the contractual rights Zampella and West previously had to the Modern Warfare brand."

Can't wait to see this, oh man, GOTY!

Convention center near Old M

Ah that's sort of the only place I didn't go to Went down to the old port from your street after eating there, then back up to UQAM and St Catherine towards Place des Arts. Eventually visited the Redpath museum on the McGill Campus. they had a nighttime torchlight only visit of their mummies and dinosaurs exhibit

Thats cool, I didnt see that torchlight exhibit, sounds cool though. I was with a big group of people so ee ended up staying out till 4 am lol. Most of the time we spent down at the Rave thingy going on, heh. We also went into that huge light dome. The maple syrup candy was awesome!

Where was that during Nuit Blanche? Metro station somewhere?

I came across this 3 little pigs display last night. Lucky I had brought my camera and took a picture of it.

I'm surprised this has not been posted yet.

I still do not like the alien designs. If I am playing a game with space-marines, I cannot vision fighting mutated zoo animals in space. The overall environments and cinematic look great though.

Hi mapcore, Just put up the final screenshots on my portfolio. Just hoping to get some feedback and comments so I can improve it before GDC.

Thanks!

Treyarch should just make a good zombie game.

The DLC is free for all new copies. They did the same thing to ME2. You will only get these maps if you buy a new copy of the game. EA is trying to weaken the used sales market.

Figured as much.
