The Multiplayer lobby side of this game is so shoddy on PS3, myself and my friends have noticed it freezing, on the friends list and invite list.
The game doesnt automatically pick up your friends list either. which is rather crap.
Once all the hassle of actually getting the game started is done, its a very enjoyable game.
They really need to add a join in progress patch though.
Got ARMA 2 on PC and this on PS3, i'm a happy soldier lol.

Yea I think I wasted it by firing it super duper danger close.
Can you howitzer targets using the map?
Do you want to actually elaborate as to why you think the game is shoddy?
Right, I'm not very good at this and still not sure how much I like it, but would like to give Co-op a go in couple of hours.
Unfortunately got to do some grovery shopping first

I think I am just a bit crap at this
I am now on mission 11... Don't really want to do it as that means the campaign is over It is actualy a very short single player, very easy once you get the hang of things and tactics, so for those struggling, just keep at it

The AI is awful in this game - enemies detect you when you're crawling up behind them from 50m away. The guy had his back to me and suddenly spun round to shoot at me- wonder if he was holding a mirror

You did something wrong as I have never had that happen to me unless I moved to fast or was not in crouch.
I snuck up on one right to the point where I could have knifed then one of my team ran to catch up and caught the enemies attention

Yup that was what i said in my initial impressions of the game and i still stand by that. Some decent voice-over work and careful shepherding (not hand-holding mind!) would have worked wonders for first time players.
What baffles me is there is no option to choose your own equipment in singleplayer or multiplayer? Now this is a massive omission that really shouldn't have happened. Some will argue that some people will be stupid enough to try choose an MP5 for missions when clearly it will be useless but so what? It's supposed to be fairly unforgiving and even so a nudge in the general direction of what weaponry would be best suited by a briefing would solve that issue.
