I finally get the code.. and my ethernet cable breaks!! It won't lock in. I have to hold it in place. I'll replace it tomorrow, i'm too tired to find another cord right now.

Dont have the one that came with your system? Or was that the one that broke?
 
Just got finished playing a few rounds, I have some bright spots, but overall it was easy to tell that I was the new one in the matches. :lol:

EDIT: Just got your FR Maynard, I should be on sometime tomorrow, so maybe we can get a game going or something.
 
hmm, got my code today, played for about an hour or so, and got to rank 11, was it this easy for everyone else, or am i just a beast?

seemed like i gained a level or 2 every match D:
 
The beta is starting to get old. Some people are also starting to see what looks to be people moding. Some are seeing people run faster then they should. I saw that but thought nothing of it. I also ended up seeing a guy that was doing some Quake 3 stuff. He was jumping all over the place and running around in circules and shooting and stabing like nothing. In the time it took me to just get 3 rounds he was able to circule me twice shoot at me with 6 rounds then stab me. I also ened up haveing someone on the crash site snipe me with a pistol from the tallest building that you can get on. I was at the other end of the map from them. Some one on another forum said they were trying to kill some one and the person just vanished. They ran them into a dead end. They had no place to go yet when they went back from where they came from the person came out of a door and killed them. I had something like that happen to me only the person was dead. I ended up killing some one got the +10 walked up to where they should have fell and nothing. Their was not enough time for the body to go away so I have no clue where it went. Also it looked odd in the scope when I kiled them. Like they pixelated(SP?). They just became small dots. I don't know if people are moding it or not. Don't see why they would the beta and I don't even know how they would mod it on the 360. PC I could see how they would do it. I would think they would have to have a moded 360 to do it and I always heard that Microsoft was able to detect the chip if you got on live and your account was banned. Oh well if you see some odd stuff then chances are some one could be using a mod. Still don't see how but others online have said people are doing it.

I'm not using that damn communist rifle, I'll stick to the M4 or M16. No one designed a better rifle that Eugene Stoner and Mikhail Kalashnikov can kiss my ass!
 
Damn. I just put in about 2 hours and 45 min into this without even noticing. This game is loads of fun. It's too bad I won't ever play it again come September 25th.

It angers up the blood.

Also sorry I didn't join your game, I didn't see the invite until much later. I pretty much zoned out the entire 2 hrs+ I'll probably be on this a lot until H3...and after Bioshock.

EDIT: Anyone know when this ends?

I did that to someone. As far as everything else it can probably be summed up in 3 words. LAG, Glitches, & Modders.

[quote name='Maynard']wish I could catch halo fever[/QUOTE]

In the past I've claimed to be a "HALO hater" having played Halo 1 & 2 singleplayer & online being more into games like BF2 or Far CRy. Then I played the Halo 3 beta and I couldn't get enough, I loved it.
 
[quote name='mr ryles']just emailed them saying, "I may have deleted my code, can i have another."

see if I get a response.[/QUOTE]

I did the same. Still no code, yet it seems almost everyone has gotten it by now.

Bummer.. I wanted to play this weekend.

anyone have any thoughts on the acog scope? i really want to use it for the higher zoom, but it ends up blocking so much of your field of vision you can't use it in close quarters.
 
Just received my code late last night. Now I'm going to give a try today. Any cag rooms going on today or want to play?
 
After two weeks I finally get a confirmation email to activate my charlieoscardelta.com account... jesus cunting christ.

Now I can finally sign up for a beta token... if I had a time machine. (yes, I know I can't get in the beta due to my location, but I'm still pissed at their crappy email verification system)
 
Think I'm missing something. I got the red dot scope, but it never gets into my inventory. I created a custom class and selected my M16 and its red dot attachment as well as its 3 perks, but when the match starts, the assault class isn't the one that I made. It doesn't have the red dot attachment or the perks that I chose. Really weird.

It saves it as whatever custom class slot you used to make it. I suggest renaming it something that you'll recognize and then you need to choose that one.
Don't choose assault class because you will get the defualt load out for assault. The custom classes are listed below the default classes.
 
[quote name='ZerotypeX']Yea, got my beta code. Now to either use it or trade/sell it[/quote]
If you get more than one sell sell sell! Pay for half or the full game with the prices these idiots are paying on Ebay!:drool: I wish I had know EVERY account that signed up would get a code..... I'd have made accounts till my fingers bled!

When i got my code last night i was like, hmm let me see how much they are going for on ebay. And sure enough people are paying $40+ for a stupid beta key! Holy crap is that retarded or what. I guess its just people are so damn impatient and need to play this game before it officially comes out. Needless to say i kept my key because i earned it.
 
Still haven't got a token from IW. It looks like the weekend will be over before some of us might even get a chance to play. By the time we get codes; they will announce the beta is nearly over.
 
I've been using the Grenade Launcher lately and the more i do, the less i want this game. When you fire off a round, the often bounce off of the fucking ground...way to go IW.
 
[quote name='triforcer']the grenade launcher isn't worth having to use the iron sight for the guns.[/quote]
It's just the small things that are ruining this game for me;
  • Grenade Launcher rounds bouncing off the ground
  • Grenade Launcer rounds hitting a crate or something similar yet the person behind the it doesn't die
  • The range that people can see with guns when sniping without scopes = way too long
  • character collision detection often results in the screen spazing out when a character is right beside you
  • Spawn points often put you within 10 feet of the enemy
  • Perks are unbalance; Last Stand can last up to 10 or 15 seconds after you've gone down, Juggernaut isn't effective enough when compared to the number of bullets it takes to kill someone without Juggernaut
I know this is just the beta, but with less than two months left, some of the issues i mentioned above can't really be fixed without delaying the game...

Good point.... 100% agreed. I've decided to pass.
 
I gotta admit, I'm loving the CoD4 Multiplayer....and the newbs running around with assault rifles while I pick them off with a default sniper rifle. :)

My 3rd round playing the game was 17 Kills, 2 Deaths. I love it :)

I don't like the ACOG in the game when attached to the M16. It does block to much of your field of vision, it takes too long to zoom in versus a holographic red dot, and while the M16 is accurate at a decent distance, it's not accurate enough to warrant ACOG distances.
 
[quote name='CaseyRyback']They did that with the grenade launcher because of battlefield 2 on the PC. If it explodes anywhere it can be abused.[/quote] Yup. People were running around soleley with the 203. Also, The assault class, which had the 203, also had extra armor. Pair that with little splash damage, and people were killing other people almost point blank, but not injuring themselves.


Anyone interested in getting a maassive party going later tonite?

I know and you can tell when some one is running like that. Its like that but about twice as fast.

Lag was brutal this morning. Several games were entirely unplayable. I would just move and sometimes fire almost at random when I wasn't even touching any controls.

I have to agree. That is why if I get the game I will end up just playing single player. I don't expect to be online much. Also makes me wonder what the point of this beta is for. Someof the stuff that should be fixed their isn't enough time with out delaying it. If it is to test servers then why not test them on the PC and PS3. I'm thinking most the issues that are going to be fixed are fixed and this is just something Microsoft wanted to build up hype for the game on the 360. If it is to test the server then they don't think the servers for live can handle it or are fixing the PS3 and PC servers to handle as much as the 360 servers.

Don't think it was lag. I have seen lag a lot in this game and this didn't look the same as when someone is running with lag. Also at the time every one had full green bars. I spend more time checking that then I play the game.

Speaking of lag this game has way to much of it. I know its a beta but they knew the number of tokens going to be handed out. This lag should not be happening. At least not how it is.
 
I thought they fixed the downloading game settings glitch.

I just got it 3 times in a row, I expect it get it more as I keep trying to log in.
