COD - BO

[Cully]

Tis contention I'm afraid Syco from what I remember.  Yeah Cully no probs, will make sure ping kick is off, but only if you are on TS drinking beer with us!

Deal!!!
I forget what its like to play fps in the evening and not get kicked.

Syco m in Monasterevin Co Kildare , its 100% a congestion issue.
Pings are 20-30 to european servers in all my games during the day which is fcuk all good to me tbh, its the evenings i want to game.
No plans of anything from UPC etc coming, my only choice is go with Magnet swift which is basically resold eircom bb but with lower contention of 12:1 instead of eircoms 48:1
Im tempted to get this but could be stuck with a 12 month contract with no improvement @ peak times.
I was thinking of waiting for NGB but boards is full of reports of it being worst than you bog stabndard eircom bb.

I could be wrong, but I read that as 12:1 Magnet users on a 48:1 Eircom line...

Bleh. Eircom have f**k all cash since the Aussies raped them for all they were worth, so I can't see an upgrade happening anytime soon

Question: are you plugged into the router via cable, or are you connecting via wireless? If the latter, have you tried switching channels? Just on the off chance that your neighbour next door could be using the same channel, and thus causing some added connection problem.

[Cully]

Connected via ethernet cable, its the only way to go tbh,ive disabled wireless in the router too, it was one of the first things i done when this crap started again.
Like i said mate its 100% congestion issue , its only at peak times, eircom have admitted to it, anyone i spoke to in the town has the same isue at the same hours etc.

Been looking at so many gameplay videos of BO recently and all im seeing is sprinting around mindlessly,jumpy shooty,dolphin diving,akimbo BS and annoying perks.
Im seeing nothing different between it and mw2 apart from the addition of diving.
Maybe im unfair to judge a game based on videos but it seems like more arcade rubbish to me, ill get it on 360 for the young lad first before ill bother with it for pc.
Time i faced up to the fact im getting old lol.

Yer just getting Old Cully!  Trust me you can still run and jump, sure I can still do it!

We'll stick to Sab and CTF, the best game modes bar none.  CTF suits all game play types, the campers, the runners and the mad ejits in the middle.  I predict the game will be massive.

[Cully]

the runners and the mad ejits in the middle.

LOL love that ,think i fit into the mad ejits group
Im looking forward to it nonetheless.

More than likely get it on G2Play.net for 44.99

It's now ?44, and "out of stock". Boo urns. Fucking registration wasn't working for me until after midnight, by which time all keys were gone

Well it looks like they fucked the pc version right up, totally unplayable with stutters every few seconds.
Steam forums are swamped with angry gamers lol.
