Morning,

Staying in and staying dry is all that is on my agenda atm.

Head on desk sounds like a nice plan as well though :)

Morning all...*yawns*...may take a nap on my desk. Wake me when the boss comes...

Had a few games on MW2 last night, but got in with match full of modders/hackers. Either that or the new "teleport" perk has been invented and released. That and the "invincibility helmet". One guy was there got 83 kills for 3 deaths - it did inspire great teamwork to bring him down, but unfortunately 4 players simultaneously firing at him with the floor around him littered with cooked grenades wasn't quite adequate enough. Especially as the next shot he took the kill cam from him came from the top of a nearby building...WHAT???

Last day at work for a few days today. Only 10 days left working for the NHS... then it's the student life for me (before anyone says it...I will get a job...when I've trained for it!)

Any big plans for anyone today?

I thought The Expendables was a movie along similar lines to The Dogs of War (don't quote me - I've heard very little about it!) but you guys are making it sound more like a wish list for The Hasbeens ><

I spent a nostalgic fun afternoon here at Freeola. Went to the story forum but no stickys? *Shock* *Horror* Still I made good use of the 'Search' feature for that forum to find a thread of links (I knew what I was looking for) and then found a different old thread linking to even older ones...

The most nostalgic bit though was the fact I totally ignored my work to browse around. Now that does bring back memories :)

SCAR-H is the only gun I use. Managed to recently complete the mastery for it (after a long break from MW2), and just got to unlock all the camos.

Morning all!

The classes here aren't too different to mine.

I use the SCAR-H with blue tiger
Spas Shotgun (or just moved onto the AA-12)
Commando Pro
Lightweight Pro
Marathon Pro
Semtex & Flash

But I find this really is mainly effective in the Domination game mode - literally with the semtex and the speed, usually running towards the opponents base from the off and lobbing a semtex gets you first blood and usually a double-triple kill. May need a back-up class as I am running out of challenges to do with them now (and SCAR-H Veteran III requires 2500 kills with the weapon!!! :o)

Two days of work and then a few days off. Pain as I have to work Saturday this week. Grrr. Still, a 60+ patient non-stop clinic means I'll be done in about 5 hours, so the faster I work the quicker I can go home!

Morning all.

Really should try and get some reviews up on Freeola today. Got a fair few games I've played over the last few months.

May be able to do an iPhone roundup as well, maybe a themed one would be better.

Haha thought it might ruffle a few feathers. The AA-12 is a fantastic secondary weapon for any class combination really. You run out of ammo extremely quick, but you're pretty much guaranteed a 1:1 KD ratio using it.

And I would second that pete! :¬) ..... however, the following isn't too bad as a counter-measure:

P90 Blue Tiger
M1014 Shotgun
Stun Grenades
Marathon Pro
Lightweight Pro
Ninja Pro

Certainly sorts out 'olympic snipers/shotgun carriers' ... ha ha
