Any of you peeps playing this out there in "real world" land?  I'm almost done the single player (I haven't been playing it much) but the multiplayer is supposed to be epic, and it would be really cool to get a QC unit together.

I got this game two days ago, and I started getting through the single player missions to open up more part (I'm almost finished with the sniper tree and about halfway through the soldier), but I can't get on Live yet because my modem is hella old. I need to get a router or a modem with an ethernet port before I can play online, but I would be totally down with joining a QC group.

Sniper is fun, if easy.  I can pretty much guarantee that you will find long-range gunner or whatever they call that RT quite annoying.  You can only rarely hit a target by actually -- targeting it, so a lot of it is shooting in the air and adjusting aim -- it's basically like trying to play Battleship with a Chromehound mounted rail gun (that's rail gun as in gun on a train in WWII not rail gun as in the movie Eraser).  I'm on the last session now and it's easy but really boring on single player, since all you see is the radar, and you're ordering around robots.  I could see how it could be savagely fun on multi-player though.

Hell yes, let's do this. We should agree on a nation and a squad name.

I actually only got mine a few weeks ago. I never thought I'd buy a 400 dollar console, but I am a sucker for killing zombies and giant robots, so I caved in.

It helps I don't have to pay rent, of course.

And Moiche, I haven't gotten any further into the single player because I start school on Monday, and the time I haven't been at work has spent reading Catch-22 because I let it go too late. If I finish it with some time tomorrow I'll probably start playing again.

OK, I've started a squad for anyone from around these parts to join. Bring your friends. It's a Republic of Morskoj outfit. The name is Rockem Sockem.

You know. Robots.
