i'm gonna try for it

I found a good spot in single player to level up on Marksmanship...it's right when you're about to get onto the monorail station. There's a equipment box - grab a sniper, walk out the doors. Someone fires a RPG and there's a huge rush of guys. Every kill is +3. Almost 100 points there. Whenever you're done killing people, reload checkpoint and repeat.

In regards to the timeline - they've specifically stated this is the sequel to the first one...I don't see why you think it's a prequel when it's clearly stated otherwise.

Actually I *think* (not 100% sure) that R6V2 takes place before, during, and after R6:V1.

Heh. And you thought the sequence of events in Pulp Fiction were confusing!

again i wasnt 100% sure, i wasnt even paying attention to the story when i played it (mostly chatting up with my buddy who i played with). i just thought it was weird how they said they needed Jung and Michael to go help Logan when they finished the Theater bomb.

Before, during, and after may actually be the best explanation.

The monorail part was hard. but i can see why you said it is a good sniping spot. i'll try that later tonight too. my Marksman, CQB, and Assault are now 17, 20, 14. Senior Master Sergeant :)

also i just got the 50-gamerscore achievement for beating all the T-hunt on realistic. i beat a few with my friends on coop. the rest i did last night in one playthrough, pretty easy to get if you do not turn on Lone Wolf and send your teammates to die and patch them up and repeat. the hardest one is Murdertown, enemies won't spawn until you - the player - are close to the next room. sending your team into an empty room and then follow in only to have enemies pop up or descend on your location... i hate that.

Ahh. Well at least the 5 years prior thing - I understand that one...so you're right. :) T-hunt is really fun with 4 people co-op, but like you said - it's frustrating to have them spawn out of no where. Although taking the alternative - guys just rushing to the spot where you're at and getting raped isn't much fun either. :)

What's the deal with joining "TEAM LEADER" games on 360 live, and before the screen even loadds, you get "banned from current server" or "kicked from current server"

80% of the games I tried to join last night, for team leader, this happened. People want to have their own little private parties, maybe the game shouldn't be public.

Has anyone messed around with the Voice Command in this game? I saw it mentioned in the manual and tried it out on late Sunday night. I was attempting to keep my voice down as not to wake my wife with loud shouts of "Go! Go! Go!", "On my six!" and "Knot up!", so it didn't work at all. The next day I was able to get it working while speaking at a moderate volume. I think it works well for changing ROE and follow/halt commands, but telling your squad where to stand is just easier tapping "A". Also, it seems the developers left out the entry commands. What good is it to verbal have them stack up when you can't order a frag and clear?
