I wonder if the servers will handle the sudden rush?

 

I very much doubt it. The release was ment to be america first and then europe a week later but we are all getting them at once.

 

Knackers I was hoping it would be early evening, before the yanks either get home from school/work - At that time, the servers are going to be absoltuely hammered.

 

might leave it until the weekend, dont want the hassle I had with GT5P all over again

 

Maps downloading now

 

Done!!! Now installing!!!

 

First job for me tonight!

 

Excellent!! I shall be downloading these tonight when I get home, and then I'll be on tonight for a few games from about 7:30 onwards

 

downloaded the maps, what does everyone else think of them? strange not knowing where everythin is.

 

Only seem to play three out of the four maps. Good to get some fresh maps, like creek the best so far. China town is mental, too many windows to get shot from. Broadcast is alright.

Sir foz i tried to get you into a few games but they either filled up before you excepted or you were playing a game when i sent the invite.

 

downloaded the maps but not had a chance to try them yet thanks to the wife hogging the tv

 

I have yet to download the maps. I had a job downloading the update today, let alone anything else. I've got a 20mtr ethernet cable coming any day now, so I can have it wired to the router, which will hoefully stop my connection dropping. The headset is fun! I was talking to some 13 year old brat earlier who took great pleasure in telling me how useless I was when he kicked my ****!

 

Lol i thought you were having problems as i kept seeing you sign out then back in again.

 

Anyone playing now?

 

I'm fast running out of excuses regarding my lack of combat skills. Once I have the thing up and running properly you will all see why I never got snapped up by the SAS (or the army cadets for that matter).

Paintballing anyone?

 

I enjoyed the new scenarios. Took ages to download for me and had a bit of trouble getting them to work at first but now they are fine.

I tried to accept your invites but got booted out a few times, I invited you but I guess it was the same, the games filled up or your were in a game.

Very hard to start off on the new levels as they seem huge! But getting the hang of them now and I think they're great! As above, only seemed to play 3out of the 4 levels though

It's nice having the double XP points though, flying up through the ranks!

 

OOH OOH OOH !!! is that just on the new scenarios?

looks like I need to kick the wife away from the TV and get my rank up for our next online game

 

Yup and only for this weekend.

The new levels ge tintegrated into the normal rotation next week. At the moment the variety maps are a seperate option.

 

Lets hope it rains all weekend then so I cant work on the XR2

will get a few hours in over the weekend

 

anyone managed to get on the 4th level? the training place one, played the others,

 

Nope, not yet

 

I heard that you can only play that on a private match but not sure why!

 

Just downloaded them, but the G Friend's decided it's Eastenders time, try to get on later and have a butchers

 

Right this is getting silly

Paid my money, downloaded the new maps (3 times now) they download fine, get to 100%. Then installs, again fine acording to the PS3.

Go to the game and attempt to select the Variety map deathmatch (or any of the new map games) and it says i do not have the maps and they can be downloaded from the Playstation store

Any ideas what i'm doing wrong

 

no idea mate, I didnt have any bother downloading or installing which was surprising given the hassle I had with the GT5P updates

got a few games in this morning before the wife got out of bed, got my backside kicked as usual but ploughed on for the points and made it up a few levels

am liking the creek one

have entered the SNET clan tag at last

hope to get some more games in tomorrow morning before my first autotest of the year

 

think they got it just right on the creek level, a proper sniper one, to me cod4 has been lacking a level for them.

 

Got mine up and running properly (no more dropped connections), along with the new maps. Looking forward to getting on there later.

 

Still got no new maps. Downloaded them again this morning. Went all the way through to 100%. Installed to 100% but they still only appear on the game list as light grey and say i need to download them from the Playstation store.

Beginning to really P1ss me off now

 

Probably not relevant, but did you download the update for the game which came out about a day before the maps were released? In the game data utility folder the COD4 file should be 370MB and be version 1.30

 

Yes M8, i did, i also tried deleting it and trying it without the update, but still got the same problem
