Scavenger probably

It's not, in the video they were using Blind eye and Extreme conditioning.

They've either changed it so now you spawn with more ammo when using extended mags 54 bullets in the gun with 2 clips in reserve (54 + 54 = 108), instead of 36 bullets in the gun with 2 normal clips (36 + 36 = 72). Or he picked up extra ammo from his own dead body, but there's not enough footage to tell.

The unlock gear can be used to say unlock the Claymore with 1 token and then you have that unlock at the beginning of every single prestige from then on.

Oh right, that's pretty cool!

The Spaz video worried me a little, but I'm sure any imbalances/issues will be ironed out.

There's nothing wrong with that Spas 12.

The only time he got 1 hit kills were in close quarters and the long distance kills took 2 shots or more. The video was taken from CoD XP which was a LAN event so there was no lag either so don't expect it to be as effective online.

As long as guns are better than knives in this game i'll be getting it, i hate hitting people with atleast 20 bullets and then they knife me.

whats with the 108 clip size at 00:20 ?

Thats not the clip, thats amount of ammo.

You never noticed it go up when you walk over guns?

Yes PC has dedicated servers, but PC gamers aren't happy about it for various reasons.

One of them being this:

So yes there will be dedicated servers, but they're going to be gimped in some way or another.

Controlling, I haven't ordered from Game.

Rather than get an NTSC version Im getting a mate to bring it over, so I pre-ordered from Tesco. I'm gonna have to wait a few days anyway

An expansion pack that will be far better than most other brand new generic titles. It's worth my £40. (Well, £27 discounted on PC)

I really hope players who don't have a positive KDR have the good sense to use the support package in this at least if they're on my team. I've been playing Cod 4 "tokemon gotta catch em all" although I draw the line a WaW

. I must say I'm not seeing this balance people talk about it just seems the same as every other COD. The killstreaks roll one into the other it's a race to get your UAV up first then get your airstrike to roll into helicopter. Once it's up dying only helps you on the next streak. You can practically respawn with a UAV in hand, on the other hand your hands are a bit tied on a team of lemmings.

Zavvi still have it at £74.95 they keep sending me £5 off codes on top of the 10% code I used. I've yet to cancel this I'm still waiting for my cashback on Tescos recent code.

looks like there was a lot of demand for it then, i hope their servers are up to the job come launch day.
