<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>For obvious reasons, he can't say anything about an

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>the end of February.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>He has said, like others have, it's better to wait
for a good patch than for</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>a patch that is just as shitty.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My opinion. They know they screwed up! They want to
make sure it's</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>going to be a whopper of a patch. PB will also be
included. Punkbuster</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>can be debated for the next 100 years but at the

info, and have<BR>received no info, and some of these sources I know if
they<BR>knew something, they would say so.<BR><BR>They really screwed up this
game. What a real shame.<BR>The Gaming Clan I sponsor is in TWL and CAL. I run
it very<BR>democratically, and sometimes it takes on a life of it
own.<BR><BR>I was somewhat shocked when I saw the poll on our<BR>website where
after much back and forth they have decided<BR>to drop COD2 because the hacks
out there are just too much,<BR>it is ruining the game, and they are tired of
waiting. It is not the<BR>first time a publisher has killed a
game. Look at the entire MOH series.<BR><BR>We have loads of screen caps
during TWL and CAL matches<BR>that clearly show aimbots, wall hacks, exploits
being used,<BR>and there is no way to enforce it. I suspect much longer
and<BR>what you will have left is the die-hards that always follow a
game<BR>but it is too late for {TRv}Team-Ravage. We are checking
out.<BR><BR>However, everyone is excited at this time about MOH
Airborne<BR>because they are optimists, and they hold out hope EA won't
mess<BR>up another one. However, being human, one can only take
so<BR>much cheating before it just isn't fun anymore.<BR><BR>Time to move
on. My humble thanks to Steve, Jay, and others who<BR>continue to help
others while taking on the job of "real beta testers".<BR>Hope to see ya on
the MOH list when the time comes for Airborne release.<BR><BR>Mark<BR><BR>At

(Bryan!) but with a patch due out, I was wondering if there is any more
information available regarding its release date? <BR></FONT><FONT

<DD><FONT face=arial size=2>I dont mean to sound like a whining gamer
begging for it A.S.A.P as I totally understand that you guys are busy and
you have all done an awesome job so far. I am really happy that the patch
will include PB support as thats what the community really needs right
now. I was just wondering if there was a release date 'pencilled
in'.<BR></FONT><FONT size=3><BR></FONT>
