Looked great - first video was awesome, but I do hope those tracers are not in the final product. It looked more like shots from Tie Fighters! See BoBWoV for nice looking bullet trajectory graphics.

Did anyone else notice every house had a light blaring in the London 1940 clip. Don't they know there is a war on... put that bloody light out!

there is an option to set % of lights. From 0 to 100

blah, blah, blah, blah

From Oleg's comments in the YouTube link:

Sorry don't mean to be insulting but this is just too funny

It was a joke... I can see why you have one of these beside your name

That was a joke too

Typical response from the "crowd". Seems there are 3 factions in this forum...some who are waiting to see patiently (a very small group apparently that includes me...I'll wait for reviews and hearsay about performance being as there is no information on perofrmance and hardware requirements), others who will slag it off at every opportunity and the sycophants that dig their head in the sand. And by the way, both of those latter groups are as ridiculous as each other!

Regardless of the petty responses - two things are clear to me regarding this game
1. I will get it when I hear positive feedback from the community (not this community as it has already decided to NOT be impartial - on both sides) and when there is a dynamic campaign
2. When I do get it, I'll be steering clear of any online gaming after seeing the posts in this forum

To both sides, you both ought to be ashamed of yourselves. Childish doesn't cover it.

What really, really makes me laugh is you lot are so locked up in your battle of words that you don't realise there is someone sitting on the fence who has a genuine thought about the game (my tracer issue). Whilst I did post that, I also said it was a great video. I thought it promoted the game well and even got me a little stoked about it. But your so hard of hearing now, you just jump on the "get the #%&*$#" band wagon!

You know there is an emoticon for that

OK Ghost, sorry. I think our lines were crossed (or cake mix was wrong).
I've never expected top performance out of a budget system and have always had to compromise on settings as does everyone else (apart from those that can afford the best of everything). I have had better than average results though in getting the right mix of components by shopping around for bargains. Cheaper than your average high-street PC but with above average performance.

The worry for me with CoD is having to compromise on settings more than I normally would. Possibly having to disable features completely. The fact that self-shadowing is disabled in the video indicates to me that I may have to disable that feature to keep it playable. I worry about other features too that may have to be disabled (not just turned down). It all depends on how good the code is at the end of the day.

Again I fall into the speculation trap. It aint out yet!

I will calm down now because Ming is getting overexcited.
