admittedly i stole that from someone on the xbox forums
Mhmm, the AI are a lot meaner and aggressive in this game. I find that amour lock is totally useless against them as they wait and stand right next to you till you release from it.
Suppose that is the same as what real people would do? I think armour lock is mainly used for teammates to save you or run away then armour lock in a seasonable good hiding spot and continue battle!
Well by hiding spot I mean generally a slightly different spot where your not out in the open.
Thanks for the videos
Was the framerate that bad at the start or is it encoding/recording lag etc? Looked to be doing like 15fps for 1-2mins (2-3rd drop ships).

I would say its the video itself. The game/frames does however lag at bits for a split second. I've also noticed that you can only have a maximum of 10(ish) enemies on the screen or around you, all other enemies will stay in the location they dropped off and either wait for you to come to them or come in numbers by the the amount of enemies you kill on your end.

If you order from a decent retailer by Monday afternoon and choose a next day courier delivery then I'm sure you will get it on release day.
I wouldn't expect to get it though if you use a standard Royal Mail service or a company that doesn't dispatch quickly unless you take an expedited service.
What are everyones plans for playing this? Will be getting it after work tuesday as will a mate, back to mine to start on the campaign then have wednesday off to finish it. Sad at 25 but meh, fun will ensue

No job or anything, so hopefully receive it in the post on Tuesday and play it to my hearts content
Hopefully do campaign with friends or i'll just do it alone
Not odd at all.
