It won't be long now. I got the text from Gamestop today for the midnight release on Tuesday.

Dumb question: How do you join the SimHQ clan? I looked around on XBL, but didn't find anything.

I work tonight, was going to go to the midnight release, but can't now... so will get it tomorrow, 10 AM but then work tomorrow night too, so won't play till wed and thurs... but thats ok because history usually shows that they can't handle this game the first few days of release, bandwidth wise. wink

Ok I've seen somewhere selling this so cheap that I'll make a profit on trade in, so I'll give it a whirl. I said I wouldn't but would be cool to play with you guys, especially considering it appears more objective based.

I visited Gamestop shortly after 10 this morning to pick up my copy. There were about 15 people in line already and it stayed that way. I asked how the midnight release party went and they said it was a mob. BO2 is definitely selling like hot cakes. HALO4 just set a first day sales record. I'll bet BO2 beats it.

HALO4 makes history

yeah Snake, I didn't dare go last night for the release since I knew I wasn't going to play it anyway. Picking mine up tonight around 8, crowds should be done by then!

I'm relieved that Combat Training is back and that it now has an Objective mode (3 vs 3).

I may end up getting this after all but it won't be for awhile.

Well, I can say this,, On the PS3,, the League match is the WAY to GO !!

1. The Connection Quality when using league match while playing SOLO,, is REALLY GOOD ! I mean I almost though I was Playing on a Dedicated Servers ! LOL
My Public Matches have however Been Standard Crap COD connections.

2. Make sure you set your Preference to "Best Available Connection" This works Way Faster searching in League Match then in Public match.

3. All the Weapons and Perks Are ALL UNLOCKED in League Match ! So Its a Great Way to Jump in and Get a feel for all the Loadouts you can create.

4. When you Use League match,, It Puts you in a division based on YOUR Skill level..
This really makes a HUGE difference, and I was Pleasantly surprised that I found myself Really Playing against people that were my Skill level ! This really let me enjoy the matches a Lot more.

SO I Highly recommend you guys try giving these New match making Options a Go !
It has really Made this Game for me, and I can say that I have been having more Fun with this COD then ANY OTHER COD! (well on Console)

Great Fun ,, Balenced,, a Ton of new ways to do your loadouts, and while Im Surprised im saying this,,,
Great Game Connections with Very Good Hit Detection while using "Best" Option and League Matchs.

Voted undecided yesterday. Went and bought it today for PS3. Part of me was torn because I'm still into GRFS and I bought the map packs, but I know alot of guys from work who are buying it. There is a large group of guys I know who just play COD exclusively, from title to title, like no other games exist. My attention span is not built for that.

I haven't spent a lot of time with it yet. Played some zombie mode just to get used to moving and shooting and started a campaign. So far, I like it. BO2 looks like a very polished product. I didn't try any MP games.

I picked it up tonight. Hope to start the campaign then ease into MP. Anyone playing tonight or tomorrow? Mag you said you had off tomorrow so do I. We could team up but I don't have whatever this Elite stuff is.

Coot, I am going to try to be on later tonight, but it all depends on when my son ends up going to sleep. I will definitely be on this weekend though. Also, they made Elite free so you should have access to it now.

Hey FS, forgive me I forget, are you "Fumducker"?

How do you get Elite?
