Darren S said:Not sure how that .50 plays online, but it was a bit 'meh' for me in the single player campaign. I much preferred the T88-S - even without the scope. The simple red dot was more than good enough.

I really should complete single player first lol..
I've still not completed COD single player and I'm 2nd prestige lol...

Does make me laugh at at how quickly these unlocks are being achieved. In Battlefield 2142, I've clocked in 280+ hours, but still haven't got everything.
Must be a COD influence that in the game design. "I WANT EVERYTHING AND I WANT IT NOW, DAMMIT!"

I wouldn't say that was quickly mate, it would take a hell of a lot of hours to get to Rank 17, and he's only stated he's unlocked the stuff for Recon and Medic. That still leaves Assault and Engineer with items that will still be locked. 280 hours is a lot, mind, but it would be interesting to learn how many hours it's taken to get to Rank 17. I'm only on Rank 2 and I've played it for around 10 hours now and unlocked f*ck all, really. LOL.

I was tagging everything last night with the tracer dart gun even managed the Apache when it came down low and racked up a load of points with it. Not many other people seem to use it though. Also got my medic paddles and a few other unlocks. Don't think I shot anyone the entire game but still racked up about 2000 points.
ran out (literrally) and bought it last nite after switching mw2 off in frustration for the last time. intial impressions are its pretty good, defo a lot more thinking, holding back and using cover etc than cod. one thing that was frustating me massively was the fact when sniping, i could hit someone a couple of times, and they wouldnt die, and yet they'd hit me once and it would kill me instantly. im guessing thats solely down to the weapon there using?
graphics are pretty good though, and im loving the destruction of the scenary.

Yes, it's down to the weapon and current Rank, I'm presuming. I had the same trouble. I hit someone 4 times with the sniper rifle before they finally decided to call it a day and die. Saying that, I was firing from one hell of a distance away so couldn't guarantee a headshot every time. Yet I've been smacked in the head and body with one shot and been killed, several times. It's a learning thing.
yeh definatley seems that way. been on again for a bit this morning, starting to pick it up a bit more now. still slightly frustrating that you can kill someone just as easy with a pistol as you can with the basic sniper rifle but il get used to it.
just need to get somemore gameplay time really i think and forget everything i know and use on call of duty....so far so good though. im pretty impressed.

still give it a good go though lol.
na i agree, its just getting used to it i think. in mw2 etc you can still get a one shot kill with a sniper rifle even if you tag them in the body, on this, its only headshots that take them down in one hit it seems. which is alot more accurate obviously, just a bit different.

Indeed, but as you unlock better upgrades and weapons, some of them will wipe you out regardless of a body or headshot. I've been killed a few times with body shots from sniper rifles. Perhaps I'm doing it all wrong and aiming for the wrong places, but like you I think it's just getting used to it all.

Multiplayer is cool. As a summing up :
I started off at the HQ, ready to go into battle, and ahead of me all I could see were tanks rolling into action and a couple of quadbikes speeding off into the distance. I ventured forward on foot, down into the desert like plains with a few abandoned ships scattered throughout. Overhead, two helicopters flew on, launching rockets and machinegun fire at the enemy forces. I hide behind a burning car to see one of the choppers being taken out by a Engineer on the ground with a rocket launcher. It falls to the earth with a boom. I press forward again, stop for a moment to look ahead. Bang. Sniper. Out of nowhere.
The best part of this is knowing that everything that's going on is basically other folk in the same situation as myself. The helicopters and other vehicles are all being controlled by humans, not AI. It makes it all so much more random with the element of surprise and not knowing what's around each corner. The vehicles add so much more to the game.

I'll add you Scutch once i've got my new gamer profile to work.
Old one ran out last night, got a new code and set a new one up by mistake. Not trying to get MS to sort out my mess. If not it looks like i'll be saying goodbye to my rank 5. Oh well, it'll give me the fun of doing it again!
