Conquest is awesome, love Caspian Border!!!!:)

Still have yet to try a Jet though, people have been all over them. I'm also glad that when you drive a vehicle you can actually see your hands this time lol, as opposed to BC2 where magic is apparently steering your vehicle.

Jets are cool but the last time I played the option to invert the default controls was broken. I need to have non-inverted controls to play any air vehicle.

What I can say is that I found the jets roll really well but can't pitch up and down for shit. I just hope I can map jet controls to my x360 controller.

caspian is completely unplayable on eu servers due to the lag. how's US ?

That generally happens when the 12 year old COD crowd bum rush the servers as they get off school. It will die down in the early morning, that is my favorite time to play!

Almost no lag for me after 2 rounds so far. I did get disconnected from the first round though:shadedshu

Edit: The servers I was on were only about 40 miles away though

Edit 2: And I shot a guy in the ass with a handgun and it killed him:rockout:

yeah, lag made me quit. hit registration was good, but you couldn't move, too much rubber banding.

I must say something about COD tho. I do still play COD4 because at its time, it was a great game and still is in some aspects.

I have that for pc but there are no servers and no players

Sure there are; maybe you need a patch?

I only know this because I tried out that Star Wars mod recently. But there were definitely lots of servers (not so many for the mod unfortunately...).

Servers can be viewed here:

I just checked the server lists and there is some squadDM servers up, Can I assume those are hacked servers and I will loose my account?

I have grown very fond of battlelog. Being able to see my unlocks and the ones im closer at getting in real time is very convenient

Yeah I'm thinking about getting a second small LCD for it now. I work IT and can probably just take one an older one home but never bothered before as never really had a real use for one. Nothing else I needed to be able to see on a regular basis while gaming before...

I dont think battlelog is a realtime updating platform.. stats dont update til a few minutes after a round ends.. Which is why some mid game disconnects lead to you not getting any credit for kills that round..

So a monitor dedicated to just that is kinda dumb imo.. seeing how you can open up the chat with a key press ingame

Hmmm the other night when we were playing It was fully updated at the end of the round, even showed in facebook style my unlocks.

IMO I hate Metro, but it could have been a lot better if they made it 64 players. the map can clearly support more. in most of my games. the round ended in the park (stage one) and never even made it close to the final bomb site place. too many people camping and not enough people pushing forward. and those that were pushing forward like me, a mate and a handful of players lacked support and were mowed down by the opposing team with their OP UMP-45's

64 players means another 16 defenders as well. And in the subway, 16 more people spraying bullets towards the attackers, I just don't think it would go that well.

uninstalled and preorder canceled..fu.k this stupid buggy shit

I hate betas, it's like I wanted to try this game out to see if I wanted to buy it, but it's buggy WORST DEMO EVER! :mad:

caspian is completely unplayable on eu servers due to the lag. how's US ?

It was fine for me when they were up before, and seems fine for me now. FPS seems to be a little haywire, but otherwise it's fine.

I bounced through a couple servers earlier and found one that ran perfectly for Caspian. Damn is it fun. They added way more vehicles (in terms of quantity) then they had in BC2 which is nice. I finally had a reason to play Engineer xD. In terms of Lag, the first 2 servers were very laggy, but the 3rd one ran very very well, so I just stuck to it.

Watch him when retail comes out and everything is fully fixed. He will go back and order again.
