OMG, why? That game sucks!

[henk]

huh it looks quite cool to be honest neb,
i see ewil is playing it right nowxd, but i am going to but it to i think,
but still don't have time to play it soxD.....
but the graphs are cool and the engine is quite impressive.

BFBC2 is quite impressive, but it is way too hard for me. I crawled around for half an hour and then all of the sudden a bullet came from nowhere and then I was dead. I used to play Battlefield 2 and BFBC2 is like a modern version of it to me.

Way too much campers in bushes with overpowered snipers. That's my opinion. O yea, and you have to walk 10 minutes before you see an enemy, in Call 'o' Dooty you meet an enemy every... 20-30 seconds?
More speed, more fun!

yeah soem people think the weakness of mw2 is that you have to much rush
and to small maps, but i think thats cool.
ohw thats a bummer, really thought of buying it, but
i prefer the rush over the big maps

BFBC2 is made by a Swedish company so all of you sweds out there better support your companies!!!

BFBC2 isn't all bad, I like that game.

But of course, like the others I prefer Call of Duty:Black Ops over BFBC2. But in my opinion Treyarch need to change their current ranking system for the next Call of Duty game. It's such a grind, like, I've done it so many times. They should use the same ranking system as Halo 3 did, which is TrueSkill ranking system. Bungie made a huge mistake by removing it for Halo: Reach.

TrueSkill explained:

The TrueSkill ranking system is a skill based ranking system for Xbox Live developed at Microsoft Research. The ranking system only uses the final standings of all teams in a game in order to update the skill estimates (ranks) of all gamers playing in this game.

The biggest difference to other ranking systems is that in the TrueSkill ranking system skill is characterised by two numbers:
• The average skill of the gamer (μ in the picture).
• The degree of uncertainty in the gamer's skill (σ in the picture)
http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/pro ... illdia.jpg

The ranking system maintains a belief in every gamer's skill using these two numbers. If the uncertainty is still high, the ranking system does not yet know exactly the skill of the gamer. In contrast, if the uncertainty is small, the ranking system has a strong belief that the skill of the gamer is close to the average skill. The green area is the belief of the TrueSkill ranking system that the gamer has a skill between level 15 and 20.

Maintaining an uncertainty allows the system to make big changes to the skill estimates early on but small changes after a series of consistent games has been played. [that's why you rank up faster at the beginning at slower as you play more games]

If you play a ranked game on Xbox Live, the TrueSkill ranking system will compare your individual skill (the numbers μ and σ) with the skills of all the game hosts for that game mode on Xbox Live and automatically match you with players with skill similar to your own.

So, obviously, the level 50s in Halo 3 were really, really, really good.
In Call of Duty ANYONE can become the highest rank, all you need is time. You can suck how much you want. I'm sick of carrying my team every game. TrueSkill would be so much more fun and competive.

Who bought Modern Warfare 1 during yesterdays Xmas sale on Steam?

[N3bulouz]

I didn't, don't have any money xD

[ewil apple]

On January 1st we are going on euro too. Our beloved currency is going to vanish. I will be just like you guys - paying for stuff with euros. So, I am hoping MW2 or BlackoPS is going for a smaller price... But, hardly this wll happen during next years. Weird how MW2 costs the same...
