Has anyone seen what the install size on the 360 is? If its any bigger than 5.7GB I've got a fridge to clean.
I just started the game and I already dislike the pacing. You go from the tutorial/training part right into a firefight with lots of screaming and yelling and shit. There's like no buildup or anything.
And that blood spatter effect is fucking annoying. It covers the whole screen and looks like someone smeared a bunch of jam/jelly all over my TV.

I do remember that, that is usually why I will play through the campaign first, gives IW a few days to iron out the wrinkles
Only thing I don't like is the mobs melee so fast, it's like within 2 seconds he has already hit you twice, so there is really no chance of getting away and when you turn your back to see where your squad is, it could be deadly.
Well, theres also the issue of co-op spec ops, where you both have to separately turn on veteran or it won't count. Found that out the hard way, why wouldn't they just make it 1 option for both players?

Is anyone having trouble connecting to a match on Xbox Live?

I dont understand some of these decisions to make gameplay "more immersive"
how the fuck is obscuring my vision with Heinz 57 more immersive? If that happens IRL, I wipe the shit away and continue 'nade spamming

great game so far, I haven't watched the video of the *controversial* scene/s but I know it has to do with an airport and other stuff (intentionally omitted so as not to spoil).
Jumped right into MP last night after playing around with NVG's....nvg's do feel a little cheap, very plastic-y but over i like the game. My one and only gripe. too many friggin attachments perks killstreaks (customizable sh*t in general). otherwise, it's a decent and solid game (aka effin awesome)

god damn blood spatter.
one shot(playing on Veteran) and all of a sudden I cant see shit. And the flashing indicator that shows where the shot is coming from is also red so you cant tell sometimes what the fuck is going on. Died so many fucking time on the first level manning the turret.

I was up until 6 this morning playing online, and every map I played was amazingly well put together. Can't wait to put more time into it, but I can safely say it's one of the best multiplayer games I've ever played.

Yeah, I had a similar problem (first non-tutorial level spoiler)
after you get blown off the jeep. You're supposed to run inside the house, but I couldn't see the fucking "Follow" indicator because my screen was instantly covered in ooze. So I died about five times getting shot from 27 directions on that street until I figured it out.
I did enjoy the level after that though, even though it was nothing spectacular.
Edge gave it a high mark. They tend to be very critical and will dock points if a game is same old - same old. This bodes well, I think.

360 users where do you find the settings to hear friends only for the no party chat work around?

Reading review, I don't really see anything that points the game out as really doing anything new or big leap from the last game, and even kinda say it's samey in aspects, yet they shit over other game sequels for not doing anything new.

I'm going to wander out to Best Buy when they open in an hour to see if they have any copies left after last night's midnight madness...

the campaign in this game has been the opposite of enjoyable for me, i can't stand how the levels are designed. for the record ive played around 20 minutes of cod4 and none of WAW. glad i only rented it.
Hey,
Did anyone else get a bum manual in the MW2 pack? Mine is 9 plain white pages - 3 pages that have a few blurbs of generic text about the game, and everything else is the table of contents, blank notes page, and 3 more pages detailing xbox live and software agreement. The thing is, it's more like a mock up. There's no screenshots, no formatting, no art. No description about who you play, who you're fighting, vehicle controls, turret deployments, alternate fire - there is literally nothing in the manual.
No description of the online game modes, no mention of perks (not even what they are, let alone any hint the game contains them). Multiplayer aside, with all the additions to single player alone there's enough to write a book on. Very weird.

Don't know if this has been mentioned yet but there is a way around them disabling Party Chat in games. Just go to your Privacy settings and turn your voice communications to "Friends Only" that way you auto mute everyone and you can stay in your party chat during games.

No, only people on your friends list can hear you. This is what we used to do before Party Chat came out and it works out great except for when someone's random buddy joins that isn't on your list... then you can't hear them but oh well. We did it before, we'll do it again.

I'm pretty sure that's the actual manual. When I was driving back from getting the game last night my friend who came with me opened the game to look at the manual. I estimated a 10 page manual on the spot. Turns out I guessed one page too many.
Activision has never been one to have extensive manuals in their games, but you'd think with a game that is going to sell however many million copies they could at least do something with it besides the absolute basics. I guess it was too much to wish that they could pick up some of Blizzard's manual awesomeness.
Also, screw these new 360 DvD cases with holes cut out of them under the disc. So flimsy feeling.
