Nah not playing on Wednesdays. I think we are going to be playing on Tuesdays.

Next Tuesday isn't going to work because it's Christmas.

Does anyone want to try to play some this coming weekend? (Sat/Sun) we can start at 9:00pm EST or later, and play later.

Even though it's the day after new years, we can start trying to play on Tuesdays on January 1. If no one shows up, that's fine. But I'll be on for whoever does.

Keep thinking it's Thurs, ooops. So Thurs are out? I will be online Sat, if anyone would like to play look me up

what game types? How many people max? I might join in for a game or two but I always have a hard time joining a friend's game or invite. By the time I click join session in progress it always says server is full

Any game type that you guys want to try. We can get up to 9 people in our party, we would just have to do ground war. If we get more than 9 we can always just play custom games.

Don't worry about not getting in, we can wait for you to join before we start the game :)

I'd be down for some COD4 this weekend. I've only played FFA games so far, but would really like to try some of the team-based maps.

So, I think I added everybody here, except blurred as I didn't know your gamertag. I should be on later for some COD4 fun. Feel free to look me up (PSA: I've only played FFA at this point, so if you want to play teams, keep that in mind. :))

yeah it was good playing with you. I don't think we even came close to losing. But I've run into so many Live problems today. Disconnections, server timeouts, lag etc. lately I've only been only able to play 1 or 2 games and then I'm disconnected. Well I guess I should be happy I can at least sometimes log into Live now.

yeah man I've been kicked off of live 2-3 times today also. There's definitely something screwed up today.

I don't think we lost at all the few hours we played today. I feel really bad for the teams we are playing against sometimes, but oh well :p

Played a few hours with buc for a few days. Nice playing with you, you're very good. I honestly don't remember us losing a game since we've played. Probably have been 40-0? What's weird is that everytime we are winning and the host ends the game I get 1 win and 1 loss.

Thanks, man. You're not so bad yourself. You usually keep right up in the top 3 every match also. CONT4CT is amazing, though. I usually play with him, and he normally dominates everyone.

I hate it when people quit early and it ends the game, hopefully the patch is going to fix that so that it chooses a new host.

I'm up to rank 13 and starting to get the hang of it relative to PC. I do still have a way to go but I'm definitely enjoying a competitive console FPS more than I ever thought I would. Now, the one thing I miss about PC thus far is the ability to have my own server with my own ruleset. (no snipers, no nade spam, ability to kick idiots, etc.) Perhaps this is in place and I just haven't noticed but I really would like to find some way to go to a server, grab xp, and know that the people I'm playing the game with are also mature and just there for a good time.

Well as of right now no one can play any COD4 due to the live problems... so we may not be able to do it tonight unless they get their act together fast.

Everything is still sort of screwed up. You can sometimes get into games, but other times your party doesn't follow and you get a cannot connect to host message. It might be better to postpone this till next tuesday.

yeah I got into a working game and didn't want to chance it and leave. It's so screwy that when I go to look at my stats it takes about 1 minutes to download. But hey at least you can play, yesterday it was stuck at joining potential matches forever.

I've actually beaten the game on Veteran since live sucks so much. I can't believe I made it through without smashing my controller. I came really close a few times... who is the dumbass who thought the infinite enemies gimmick would add to the fun of the game? It's just stupid. I sat sniping a doorway at one point and picket off 43 guys (yes I counted) on that god damn safehouse level.

I'll be playing if live works, but I just checked the support page and it's now sayign they are having problems with all kinds of stuff, including COD4. So I'll probably wait a bit.
