Added myself to the bone list. Also you can add me to the list of people who play the campaigns, though I do it with a guide for the "collect every one of these stupid items" achievements so I only have to do it once.

When I finally bought an xbox 360, it was the MW2 version, and it's help up without red rings or anything this long. I'm hoping the AW Bone will be similarly long-lived.

The worst part is I'll have to get a new headset for the bone because they changed up their audio plug, didn't they? Maybe I'll actually buy a wireless one this time.

Looks like I could either get the chat adapter and hope it works (mixed messages online), Plug the headset into the TV for game audio and use the Kinect for a mic, or opt for a new headset.

I might actually just go for the headset because of how I have my computer set up, I'm using it for PC stuff right now. Switching the plugs back and forth constantly would be a pain in the rear end.

I have an old set of Turtle Beach X11s, btw.

It's not going to have a framerate. In the ultimate troll, the disk you're shipped just displays a static image advertisement for the bone version.

Spoon said there's no clan management available yet, so I assume those of us not currently in the clan are stuck until they implement that.

Which, knowing how CoD clan poo poo has worked in the past, probably means March.

2014 with new consoles that have cloud services and they still can't put dedi in the biggest multiplayer FPS release.

I don't really have the money for the PS4 but I liked the slower aim speeds way back in the day when I tried MW2 on the 360 for a bit. It made flanking a lot better.

Changing how the netcode works would require they change anything at all about the codebase, rather than slapping new skins and models on players and weapons, changing numbers on perks, and spending 11 months making lovely maps.

I just wish that video had more footage of the game actually being played instead of a parade of people talking about playing it.

Most if not all of the gameplay in that video came from the multiplayer release trailer too. So it was double worthless.

Hope the actual Assault streaks are fun this time.

Is that EMP at 6 with UAV at 4? Or are kills only worth 50 and the UAV is 8 kills? Either way those two are way too close together.

Am I a bad person for actually liking the game fuel lemonade flavor? When I get the 88-cent 44-ounce fountain drink from the party store near the college I usually do 50/50 dew and lemonade anyway, so it's like little cans of what I'm used to.

Uplink looks like it could be fun to run a train on bad players, but it'd end up a lot like CTF where everyone just camps their bases and it's impossible to do anything.

Why the gently caress do Optic kids get to do all this poo poo though, they're so bad.

Also I just realized Binding of Issac rebirth and this come out same week.

Welcome to my world. Preordered both, plus my job of writing roughly 3,000-4,000 words a day in articles + whatever I end up doing for NaNoWriMo, I'm basically going to have to stock up on Mountain Dew Game Fuel because I don't have time for sleep.

Soul Glo, I couldn't hear a word anyone was saying in those games, sorry. My headset didn't play voice at all and apparently requires a kinect to use as a mic, so it's worthless.

Also my internet went to poo poo for a minute so I dropped out.

Yeah, something's up with voice chat not working. I have two mics and Esk can't hear me on either. I couldn't hear dudes earlier, but I think they could hear me then?

My problem is I'm trying to get 360 mics working with the chat adapter and it's a piece of poo poo, but if the game's voice chat is hosed up too that would be icing on the goddamn cake.

I tried out those akimbo LMGs for about... 12 seconds, but I'm pretty sure you could aim at the ground and still miss 3/4ths of the time with the shot spread on those things. I'm pretty confused about why they exist when they can't actually hit enemies.

I did, but then I'm just a sentry gun with no accuracy that can be killed in two bullets because this is CoD. I dunno, maybe I'll play around with it in dom with a group another time. Solo it's just not worth the effort to try to set up.

Awesome, I'll give that a try tonight. Thanks!

Which headset are you trying to get to work? I'm gonna try those steps too and see if I can finagle something.

I snagged X42s used hoping I could get them to work, but neglected to notice the tiny fine print hidden in a compatibility page that says you need to use the kinect as a mic and the mic doesn't work with the chat adapter, which makes no sense to me because what's the goddamn point of the chat adapter then?

I also tried to hook up my old X11s but I couldn't hear or broadcast chat at all, but I also don't know if that was a problem with AW or with the chat adapter. I also use that set for my PC and switching back and forth constantly would be a pain in the rear end.
