Again, this game is going to consume me for the rest of the weekend. Glad I got to pick it up early, and I am now happy that my hook-up didn't have "MLB '10" as well. LOL.

PM, where did you get in in Toledo? I am in Detroit and may make a trip to get it.

Bowling Green, bro. PM me if you don't know which spot I'm talking about.

From the same mom-and-pop store I always get my games early at, bro.

I haven't noticed any bots, bro.

As for hosting, as far as I can tell there are no hosts. You pick which game you want to play, and it connects you right away. The only say you have is if you want to pick a squad right off the bat, or wait to.

I'll get back with you guys in a little bit as the wifey has to use the computer real quick!

EDIT: Sorry for the trible-post, BTW.

please post a few of the upgrade points needed to upgrade weapons. I have heard they are less difficult to get than the PS3 beta which was ridiculously high.


edit:
I found them if these are correct

I believe those are correct. I'll have to double check, though.

As for upgrading and ranking up, it seems to me like it could take some time to do both, unless you are truly skilled and get the hang of the mechanics right away. I think this is a good thing, as it will give this game lasting appeal and whatnot. It should take a good chunk of time to truly start ranking up and/or upgrading weapons in this game.

Now, back to getting my early practice and heads up on people before Tuesday. LOL.

Yeah, that's what I figured. No biggie, was just wishin'.

Man I really miss the demo. MAG just doesn't do it any more for me after spending days playing the demo. 1943 is gonna have to do until Tuesday I guess.
