I have to forward my ports to host Crackdown games for some reason. For every other game UPNP works fine, but for Crackdown it complains. Annoying but solvable!

I found the same with gears and cod4. As we moved bb providers I just forgot to open the ports but the wireless box actually has an xbox live setting which has the ports in it just set it up for the iBook mac address and the xbox sprang to life.

Yeah was good fun except the annoying French and those Gold crosses using Jugger.

I won't be playing next week as it's the week I'm working nights

Have fun peeps

And hopefully find someone that can manage to host the game without people dropping out at the start of each match

Well just tried my first hardcore game this morning and OMG it is different. I never knew how reliant I was on the hud, the lack of the map isn't too much of a loss but not knowing the score or my ammo amount is a big change. Still managed to top my team with a 25-11 k/d score though we lost useless team members

My stealth class is rather useless in hardcore mode as the map is only visible when the UAV is up. One good thing though is I've rediscovered the the G36C and it rocks

When I am round at my mates playing CoD4 we *only* play in Hardcore, I don't think I have ever played the game in anything but hardcore.

I might see about getting CoD4 if I am to have this xbox for a while, will ofc join you lot online sometime

to be honest hardcore makes a lot of the perks redundant but softcore is always good for a laugh.

I might suggest some TDM hardcore on Thursday. Get yourself a copy Drz and join in, Thursdays is where it's at!!!

I'm just loathed to buy a game for a console thats not "mine", but I might as well join in with you guys. I would need to get a headset too... hmm.

Game might have a copy preowned and I do need to pop to the shops anyway. Might have a look and see whats what.
