    No Winter Crash for the 360?

    :(

    Awesome treat for PC players, though.

    Sadly, no :( Console certification time would have pushed it past the holidays, which would have been lame.

    Re: PC mod tools- they're coming. I've seen 'em, and they're very cool.

    Alright, since all you queers are doing so good on 360 I'll have to start playing again so I can drag you down. If you need a baseline think of it like this, if I am on top of our team leaderboard, we are losing. I think I managed to make this my Friday at work so all I have to do tomorrow is pack for vacation but besides that i can play til late tonight and pretty much all day tomorrow.

    Just finished about 1 hour straight of Winter Crash on Hardcore.
    The gifts in the middle can be shot and moved around, physics. Fun stuff too meet up in the middle Black Hawk and just exchange gifts, by shooting of course.
    Lighting is obviously different, christmas lights give a glow to the weapons.
    Everytime an airstrike happens, you hear sleigh bells and HO HO HO.
    God this map is awesome!


    Sorry 360, but seriously youre missing out on fun.

    Dude you can hide behind candy canes. This essentially changes the awesomeness of gaming as we know it. CPL and other pro gamers are now formulating strategies around candy canes and christmas lights. Just kidding, but I know I am!

    I started using the G3 in Hardcore last night, works pretty well. Might keep using it. Does anyone know if its a single shot kill without Stopping Power in Hardcore?

    In the chest/head yeah. Legs and arms, no. Also, it doesn't penetrate walls as well as the M-14, which will kill people in one hit no matter where you hit them, and usually one hit through walls.

    After one too many instances of pegging a guy and not killing him before he escaped with the G3, I went back to the M-14. I hardly ever spam fire at long distances, so the added climb isn't really that much of an issue when you are firing single shots.

    I love Cage match.

    I had this awesome couple of matches. I was being a bit of a dick though. There was this guy that.. Hell, he had a Tiger Red camo or whatchamacallit on his gun, so I thought he was good.

    But yeah, I was kinda mean. First, I lured him into a building with claymores by popping off shots into a wall so it showed up on the map. Then later I stole his gun and killed him with it for the rest of the match, got the last kill with a helicopter.

    So I felt bad until I saw his bio which was something like "If u aint reel, dont be haten on a playa" blah blah. Still, I like one vs one. If there wasn't a time limit, I'd have more fun. I always have wanted to do something like the sniper battle in MGS3 or Enemy at the Gates. I just love crawling, hunting, or maybe being hunted.. but it's only ten minutes, so eh.

    It's kind of silly that you aren't even that far away from the guy you are sniping on the "one shot, one kill" mission. I mean, you are what, maybe a half mile away? That's far, but not "send our best sniper after him, and we need a .50 to do it" far.

    Maybe the requirement for the "send our best sniper after him, and we need a .50 to do it" part is in getting to half a mile away in the first place. getting to the position you are in to take the shot was considerably more trying than actually taking the shot.

    So no one else has the black screen, no error messages, absolutely no where to go from there problem?

    I have tried everything. I would log onto their forums and help sites but both Activision and COD site's are down for new registrations.

    My anger is so thick it's palpable. This is 2000 FUCKING Seven. Can we not release a game that just......works? Or how about a help forum that accepts registrations so I can attempt to get help.

    /rant not off, but finding another place to steer it towards.

    Where, exactly, does it quit responding? Do you get a mouse cursor? Is it a GPU hard lock or can you ctrl-alt-esc and kill the process?

    I never get a cursor. The small green splash screen comes up, it then changes resolution, goes all black and just stays there. No cursor, nothing but black.

    I can CTRL+Alt+Del out of it.

    And it's always Not Responding, takes 50% of my processor and does nothing. I just let it sit for an hr after starting up and still just a black screen.

    Sounds like corrupted assets Try re-downloading from Steam. If that doesn't work I'd guess that it's a failure to initialize a rendering context, in which case try reinstalling DirectX and your drivers. If that doesn't work, back up a driver version or two.

    Keep me posted.

    I had a cage match session today - but it was the opposite of yours. Just had a conversation with the guy and played for fun. Going shotties and pistols only, whatever. If we couldn't find each other we would just blast off a few shots to get situated.

    I like how the maps are barren and quiet, my kind of shit.

    Anyways, you can see people are playing on steam but not what server. I'm not gonna start the whole steam vs xfire thing, I don't give a flying fuck, so don't bring it up.

    I was playing on this server (PC) and we were playing Sabotage on Downpour.

    The entire SAS team (7 of them) were from this NST clan, the rest of us were just random pubbies.

    The first game went back and forth and ran out of time. The second game I wiped out the ak and pushed it through a group of them myself to plant and explode

    I made a comment, "You guys must not be very good if a bunch of pubbies beat you : / "

    One by one they started leaving after that as we won more and more rounds. It was hilarious, but the end I had 1014 points while the top guy on SAS had 200

    To put it into context, these guys had been on the server the last hour stacking teams and talking shit as they won HQ games.

    That is indeed a dope combination.

    I've been switching over to the AK-47 from the M4A1, and man does that gun tear ass. I've been underestimating it way too much. M16 and RPD for large maps with clear, unobstructed view, AK for close street-fighting maps.

    I just had the best match ever. It was TDM, 2 (my team) vs. 3. I ended the match with a k/d of about 60/30. I got a little worse at the end which got my deaths up but I was dominating the entire match. I am kicking myself for not getting a screenshot.

    I ended up unlocking the G36C, completing 4 challenges and being promoted twice. I used what I now call The Steed which is my blue tiger M4 w/ ACOG, silenced M1911, RPGs, Stopping Power and Last Stand. I just switched Last Stand to Extreme Conditioning because I didn't get a ton of kills with Last Stand and I completed all of those challenges in that match.

    My god it was glorious.

    I have both. With both you can see who's playing what.
    But with steam I gotta message you in game, hope you hear me, ask for IP, wait for you to copy, etc
    Pretty much, not too hard but a pain in the ass enough that no one will want to do it.
    Xfires nice for the single fact that you can see what server other users are in. Right Click, Join. Easy as that.
