I liked the tiny gap in the walkway roof where it joins to the aircraft. Last man defending a headquarters node inside the plane I managed to drop a Predator missile through that gap, just as the whole enemy team tried to get through =) Reply+2
@gamingeuro If as you say they're no longer producing Half Life games then this mini-project didn't divert any development resources. What's your point again? Reply+11
Waiting on 1.2 to hopefully fix the error 51 when launching through Steam. I have to revalidate game files and download a 50byte file. Seems to be a problem with a corrupted config file since it resets my settings, fortunately I can make do with just changing my mouse view speed. Reply0
During the beta the connection could drop out mid-mission to their servers. The missions weren't all that long but it was a pain re-playing them from the start. Wouldn't be happy if that happened with the final release / paid version. Reply+2
I don't understand how the map rotation system works on PC. You don't get to vote for the next map and I haven't seen any severs set to only play new maps, so it's pretty hit and miss if you'll get to play a new one. Reply0
I've pre-ordered both BF3 and MW3 (because they were offered at very nice prices) with the plan that I will cancel MW3 shortly before release if they haven't confirmed server support.
IWNet in it's current incarnation is piss-poor. I loaded up MW2 a few weeks ago and was selected as the host for 2-3 maps in a row. There was me with the full ping bars, and everyone else on 2-3 bars. Wasn't on long enough to see anyone cheating but you can still encounter hosts with modified configs, meaning you get dumped into a game of Terminators or zero G or whatever. Reply+2
"Finally, the insider claims that, as with MW2 and Black Ops, there are no plans to support dedicated servers."
Black Ops on PC has dedicated servers. And they'd really better think about keeping that going for MW3. IWnet on the PC is a joke. Reply+6
Cheapest e-tailer is listing this for £28, and the 360 version can be had for £20 (has been even less in some sales). And they missed the massive marketing push that helped the 360 version. I can't see the sales figures being all that high.
I just think they didn't even properly start work on this version until they had the 360 one out of the door. It's been, what, 7-8 months in between?
I am planning to get it, but with the price difference I can't justify the release cost. It'll wait for a month or so. Reply0
Can't see it being Mercs 3 if it has been in production since 2009, and this project is using Frostbite 2. Unless they scrapped the project and restarted it for the new engine. Reply0
"Outside of the samsung issue, it's not really surprising updates would fail if you lose your connection or run out of space. "
Not surprising, no, but there should be a failsafe system in case an update doesn't complete, instead of rendering a phone unusable.
