I just bought it.

Took awhile to get it going with Vista, but I got it done.

Its pretty amazing. The vehicles drive great. The guns kick quite abit but I don't mind.

Looks like there are quite a few servers too.

I noticed a lot of the servers are empty.
Makes me wonder how many companies offered specials like Gameservers.com did for .99cents/slot .
I would love to see how crazy the action gets on the huge Ronin server.
Has anyone tried the server when it had a lot of people on it?
If they can run a 100+ player server without it causing the server to be a laggy P.O.S. I would be very impressed.

I've played on some of the big servers. I wasn't thrilled with the gameplay, and lag issues were very apparent when shooting over long distances.

The game is an awful lot of fun, and getting the single player is certainly worth what the game costs alone.

I wish I had more time to be playing. It seems to be a no-brainer that this is a game we could all enjoy together.

A word of catuion for Vista users.

The game uses Disc 2 instead of Disc 1 and starts through Windows Media Center rather than Programs.

Also, when downloading the patch, dont choose "save" choose "run" or it doesn't work. Don't use the first couple download links they are much slower than the last few. (4 hours vs. 15 minutes)

Just my observations.

Jim, you have to be in heaven bombing around on those humvees. The moment I climbed into one, I thought of you and how incredibly deadly you'd be in it. The guttural sound of the engine is outstanding. I loved the introduction to the vehicle in the single player, how you could race it up those big flights of stairs. What a hoot.

I've always liked the way you think, mate!

We need access to vent. I haven't had a chance to explore our options. Anyone have some suggestions?

[MOH}Dedicated



Look for me in those if you want a piece of Shred biggrin.gif

And as always, everyone is welcome in BLAM! vent. We have COD4, UO and Frontlines channels.

That is outstanding! Thank you, sir!

I just PM'd a good friend from up north to let him know I'm a bit tied up at the moment, but after May 2 I hope to be able to get into Frontlines on a more regular basis.

Thanks for the offer as well, Shred. Sounds like we can get things wired up.

Now, we need to get Bargod, Hellfighter, James, Robert and others hooked up with copies of Frontlines.
