If it's the latter, I'll be passing on this game for sure then. I mainly play terrorist hunt with buddies, but I loved playing OS games, and if we can't, forget it.

And considering the graphics really haven't been improved, I wonder why the framerate is worse than the first game.

Can you host your own private lobby, or is everything setup on a dedicated server?

Man it sounds like this game is going to bomb. Ill be passing unless i hear it isnt all that bad online, or possibly a fix...but it looks like COD4 will be taking my PT still.

I was just doing some searching on other forums, people were talking about setting up games. So it sounds like it's still ok to set up private games. But it sounds like you won't rank up in them.

We may not know until we get it.

I don't think I played a single ranked rainbow match.

[Brandwin]

well damn. I'm on the fence now...

We were able to rank up in private matches in the original Vegas. I'd like to know if that's still the case. What's soured me on CoD4 is constantly playing with randoms.

Agreed, it's one of the things that got old with me on COD4, in order to get the weapons/perks, you had to play ranked games with randoms. I mean, it had a great party system (which R62 doesn't have at all) so that helped, but majority of the time, I played alone with 15 other randoms.

If I can't rank up to get weapons and what not in R62, then it's not worth it for me to play randoms again, I just don't have the time.
