    How many cockeyed cunts have picked this up on 360 then? Swirl, Wookie and Frantic are in but what about the rest?

    I'm very tempted. If it turns out to be a lag fest, it's over between us Frantic.

    Lag was fine yesterday. Must be your Ethernet cable.

    Ha the cable is of the highest quality, crafted by the hands of a god. 

    The lag was fine for me yesterday, but I'm worried it was in my advantage and I've got a world of pain coming once I hand over my points.

    Honestly seemed spot on last night. Must be 10 years since I last played cs and I remembered some of the maps and my old tricks. Managed to defend a bomb I planted by spraying my AK 47 at 3 SAS guys, killing them all. 

    Only really took me a few games to forget that aim down sights even exists.

    Yeah I had no problem without aiming down the sights, I think the video I saw had the crosshairs taken off for some reason.

  • How many maps on this bad boy ?

    I bet they update the ps3 version regularly and have free maps ? Unlike the 360 version ( probably )

    I've got this now. Nexx and myself had a torrid time trying to play together (not helped by me getting distracted, picking the wrong team, then failing to get back in game) but I guess that'll sort itself out.

    No Party Chat is a bit of an arse, but you can see why. Once we work out how the lobbies and such work the game itself is pretty cool.
  • just had a quick blast on the trial. All the memories came flooding back. If you're all still playing this when back off hols I may purchase.

    Yeh, attempted a game while the little un slept. I managed about 2 mins before he woke up.

    Yeah, the lobby system is a tad counter-intuitive. (No pun intended.) I think it'd be cool if they allowed party chat, but if anyone on your team was using it, you couldn't watch the other team while in death-cam mode. But I suppose that only takes one guy using it to chat to his mate playing something else about how high he is right now (duuuude) to stop everyone watching the other team whilst dead.

    Ah,  I did wonder. "Oh hey, Frantic is playing. Wait, no, Frantic isn't playing." Thought maybe your 'net connection had shat itself.

    Anywho, Minkymu and I have been talking on Twitter, there should be a few of us around to play this at around 8:30 tonight. Get involved.

    I can hopefully get on between 9 and 10.
  • I played a few games earlier and the aiming is starting to click for me.  Need to play around with the weapons a bit more though as I just press auto-buy atm...

    I should be around this evening for some games.

    Auto-buy- n00b!

    I think that stopped me from getting a console version- I'd have everything bought in less time than it made to make the keystrokes. Be interesting how that translates.

  • Have any of you chaps have problems with the controls not working when they bought the game after playing the trial ? The menu would be ok but as soon as you'd start playing the buttons on the pad wouldn't work !

    After a quick google the answer is to reset the buttons on the the controls menu 

    Hope this helps someone , as I flummoxed for a while

    I can tell. Even in the games we were losing, you didn't go negative.

    Happened to me, too. I bought the full game, and my first match I could only run and look as the buttons had all been unassigned. I just restored the defaults and that seemed to fix things (though I did have to put look back onto invert).

    Cheers for the games there lads, my trial expired so I'm calling it a night.

    I'm also calling horse shit on the net code. HORSE SHIT. Guys teleporting around corners getting instant headshots is exactly the kind of thing I was worried about. It reminds me of the original Rainbow Six: Vegas, but only the bad bits.

    I'm glad I still had some of my trial left as I'd have regretted buying this.

    Didn't you see the amazing teleporting death machine when i was the last man? I wasn't doing bad myself after a while, but again I don't know how much of that is down to the lag. 

    Well I'm glad you like it, poor Swirl couldn't het a kill so he couldn't have been enjoying it.
