Played a game this morning, in towards the end of a round it's just me and two blue guys left. Got my grenade ready because I had a good idea they were in the garage. Head down the stairs, saw slight movement, threw the grenade and it hit something, meaning it wasn't too far away from me. It goes off, I get knocked to the ground, and see that one of the guys is right in front of me, unload the shotgun on him, he drops, to reveal his teammate right behind him. Another two blasts and he's dead. That won the round and, indeed, the whole match.
If there's anyone from Ubisoft there, tell them they need to use dedicated servers, draw them a picture if you think it will help. No servers, no takeh ma monies.

i've got a beta key for this, waiting for activation key for download. i then look foward to impressing the 'pros' with my gung ho ways....my FPS skills haven't moved forward since playing Doom!
If this gets servers I'm day one, I can even work around the OP shields. P2P just won't cut it in this game, ridiculous to think they are even considering it, cheap bastards.

Managed a bit of Terrorist Hunt just now. Too easy on Normal, even for me, although some people really struggled. Could be lag on their end, fine for me though. Ended when one guy left, who of course was the host.
Tried it on Hard, spent five minutes watching other people play, dropped from the game when I tried to look at my friends list. Got into a fresh game, loud yank was trying to be in charge, telling everyone what to do, causing the host to leave again, game over. Back to watching other people play, gave up.
I enjoyed what I played and I liked the chunky art style, but I am wondering if it's best left until it's reduced. P2P makes me think Terrorist hunt will be the draw.
Frantic and I are playing TH now. Three minutes into a game, host leaves, game ends, brilliant. Other than that, TH is great.

But not drop your knickers, day one forty pound great.

No private lobbies in the beta either, hopefully in full game. Too many John Rambos playing it like CoD.
