I was just remembering the days when we had to use our password access to get on our servers because they'd be jammin' all the time. Makes me miss the good 'ole days!

I'm know many of the TWL UO folks are signed up on the COD2 teams as well. But if COD2 is "all that" then UO would have perished by now. That speaks volumes.

Completely agree with everyone. I too was very disappointed in the gameplay of COD2. No BA, auto-health, and no sprint feature just sucks all the fun out of the game. I'm all for graphics, but if the gameplay is not there, then who cares about grahics. Once again, if graphics were "all that" then UO would be dead.

The reason the European Theatre is more prevelant is because of the dominating personality of Hitler and the German war machine. The Japanese and the Pacific were too unknown and to far removed for many to identify with. And so it goes just 50 some years later.

Pleeeeeease get it right COD4! Or do we have to wait for COD4.5 in '08. Ugh!

There is much to be accomplished with tank warfare yet.
Imagine a dark and stormy afternoon when Cory and David are both desperately trying to climb the south hill at opposite ends on Kursk. The rain is pouring and thick mud is causing their tracks to slip. Despite the delay, Cory finally reaches "88 position" near the top but can't make out if any panzers are incoming. Suddenly a lighting bolt cracks through the sky and illuminates 2 panzers hiding behind the hail bail. Cory desperately swings his death machine to the left while he watches 2 75mm shells come ripping through hay straight at him. One shell bounces harmlessly off his thick front armor and careems into the windmill causing it to collapse and crush Cowdoc inside. But the other shell violently explodes and shatters his left side track severly impeeding his turning speed. He fires, cuasing one tank to explode and flip on it's side. Cory immediately bails and crawls into the remaining hay pile.
Meanwhile Cross has finished the plant at R2. As he stares at the rainwater pouring down the strairs he desperalty tries to listen through the rain and thunder for an unwelcomed visitor. Scene fades...
Will Cory, tarred and feathered, with mud and hay make it to R2 in time to defuse?
As David crunches through the South Ruins will he notice the Russian motorcyle coming through the pass, with a Sticky Bomb with his name on it?
Stay tuned....
