The heartbeat sensor gun was enough to make me at the game

seriously? I thought they were advertising this game as a realistic modern war game? IW have made a prepubescent jerkfest.

FFS that's just utterly retarded! I know it's supposed to be "modern war" but please!

Move here. Bad guy is here. Turn this corner you'll see bad guy at 10 o'clock. Pull trigger. Move on. Next bad guy is straight ahead. Pull trigger now pls.

Scripted? Thats not scripted thats so damn detached you may as well just watch someone else play!! :mad:

Pathetic, truly pathetic.

Yep that's just about everything that went through my head, really cemented my decision not to buy it

Roland0 · 6 Nov 2009 at 16:04

I find it hard to Believe they actually managed to mess up the game that much for PC gamers!

i wish some war games would get back to some proper realism, like the original socom, where if you reloaded with a full mag you didn't just magically refill the next you loaded a fresh one in and after cycling through your mags you'd get back to that one with 14/30 rounds left in it etc.

Why use a custom font? Seriously? Why?

What does a font type have to do with my question or even this thread?

Xiler · 6 Nov 2009 at 16:09

Always thought CoD4 maps were way too small for anything over 20+ players........

This font is actually a little bit high and narrow. ie its less legible than the standard one. One of the best things about OCuk for me is the fact that you can understand what is being written because signatures are controlled, people like to write in sentences most of the time, and the worst acronyms and abbreviations are banned.

You're right though, it doesn't have a lot to do with the thread. However, if you look at the quoted text it is actually not just less legible, it is quite hard to read.

It has also been confirmed by two developers at Infinity Ward that the PC version will share the same player cap that the console versions at 18 players (or up to 9vs. 9 matches)

"sigh"

Fair enough osc89er thanks for making it clear to me I will from now on use the standard font.

Feek has used a different font on the forums for years, it's not something which is banned

It is, however, very annoying.

Problem is everyone just seems to want arcade like frag-fests, like MW2. I would love another Raven Shield.

I would pay anything for a new version of ravenshield, possibly the most tactical team orientated online play ever. Single shot G36 pwnd
