I don't understand how a game can be so fun and suck so much. The game-play itself, at least in multiplayer, is awesome. However, depending on a group of people on Live to actually go for the objectives and help you win the game is fucking useless. I am 1/18 for wins right now, my buddy and I can only carry the team so far. I usually don't give a shit about ratios at all but getting destroyed over and over is tiring. It seems like every game I join the other team has 3-4 people on mics and I have only had one game where someone on my team was mic'd up.
I think the game is good, a great break from BF3; but praying to every religions God to give me a team is exhausting and stressful. This is why I drink!
A lot of people have been talking about going to all digital game sales, streaming movies, basically doing everything and anything over the internet. Awesome, I can't wait for it. However, I have a huge problem with this. Internet usage caps by ISP's.
Today I tried getting on the pc to check my email as I do every morning when I get a message from Comcast saying that I have breached my contract and my internet has been shut off. WTF. Call them and they tell me that I have gone over the 250 gig usage cap and have therefore breached the contract. Well fuck me, so after an hour of cajoling them that I didn't even know there was a cap on it they turn it back on and say that if I do it again they will turn it off AND I will have to pay for the rest of the contract for internet I cant use.
I went to check for another ISP immediately but nothing but satellite is available. I checked out the stats on Comcast, between my wife and I we have used about 200 gigs of up and download bandwidth every month since we got Comcast.
Is Comcast the only company that does this? How can they get away with it in this day and age? How are we going to d/l 5-6 gig games and not go over this.
I know it has been suggested already, but have you looked into the military at all? I just finished an 8 year enlistment in the Air Force and it was the best thing that could have happened to me. I was in the same boat before I joined, but the military matured me a lot. I figured out what I wanted in life, and the military gave me the discipline and motivation to get it done.
It really isn't that bad either, most people in the Air Force are cushy 9-5 desk jockeys. You'll learn a lot of technical skills along the way as well. Only reason I'm leaving is because I didn't want to miss my daughter growing up, but for single folk its not to bad.
