No there were 6 of us on for a while and we played ranked HQ's. Won most of them too! Started losing at the end but I think that's cos we were all tired

It was great fun and we did really well working as a team on it. It's the first time I've enjoyed HQ's in a while.

In the end we ended up on Ground Wars because there was so many online at the same time. We won that too

Its a good job i didn't play last night,i usually end up running around like a headless chicken with no purpose on HQ's

Last night, i thought was a f######g brilliant night. Didnt even matter if you were any good or not cos we worked so well as a team for 90% of the matches that it didnt matter how good you were or how lame you were, we all seemed to play a role.

Several brilliant HQ matches and then a kick-ass 8 man Ground War team playing Domination and we rocked.

And the reason Minnimo IS our leader is because i have never known someone bark so many orders at people like "Spread out guys" and "Someone stay on B and the rest on A" etc.
I have to say that she will be all blushing now about it but the end of the day she was a bloody good commander giving orders mixed with a few of us giving her info such as who was capturing, who was defending where, where the enemy were etc.

Like i said, it didnt even matter if you werent that good a player, cos with Minnimo telling you where to be you could still get involved and cover each others backs.... "Monkey, get on that bloody machine gun and give them some revenge!!!"

If we have too many people wanting to play again I think a good idea is that the Host (Minnimo probably) sets up a 9 man party for Ground War, enters a Ground war game and hopes that the room is empty.... then she and her team can quickly invite the people NOT in a party into the game and hope that we get as many people in as possible all playing together against each other before some USA noobs enter the room to play.... Last night we had our 8 man team sitting in the game lobby waiting on new players to join and could have easily invited another 10 people in who would have been on the otherside but would have made it an 18 man DS RANKED match then, which would have been awsome!

If that doesnt work we can always Private Match

I was owning the other night with the g3!

G3 is awsome on Hardcore matches like S&D....literally 1 shot 1 kill and you just have to flick the trigger 2 or 3 times when u fire to make sure if u miss on the first you hit on the second.

On normal game modes its a bit too weak and awkward but it really comes into its own on Hardcore games

That's the only problem with the game,the party sizes are too small, DS Ground wars may be the way forward due to the popularity of our Group,i sent Minnimo a VM and waited a while but after an hour JtheAngel sent me a invite so i had a few games then watched Die Hard on Blu-ray

Yeah she said you had but we had six in our team, so we suggested after a couple of games doing a Ground War and inviting you and another couple of people wanting to join as well. Thats when we had the idea that if a party of 9 entered a ground war, we could invite other people to the game if it was empty and end up with a ranked game of 9 vs 9 made up mostly of DS people on both sides all being well.

Just have to test that theory next time we have a lot of people wanting to play.

... and it's easier to hear a female voice on the mush of xbox live headsets. It's lucky that she knows exactly what she is doing and is really good at COD4.

Last night was awesome


Great games, great teamwork, lots of orders from Minimo, & some excellent victories (I think we got a few 250-0 wins on HQ too, during our winning streak).

And then finished up with a nice big GW Domination victory.


Brilliant night.

matt, whats your gamertag? I keep forgetting who everyone is from here to the xbox

But i agree.... last night was the best night i have had yet for some really good teamplay and Minnimo seemed to strike a good balance between having a laugh and a joke..... and kicking our arses for trying to destroy a HQ with 5 seconds remaining

feed the reaper scared the shit out of me in the last level. All you saw was a skinny character in that black clothing run around the corner chasing someone. Then all of a sudden he'd run at and knife you

There were about 7 the whole night long. We ended up going into groundwars for a while and trying to get domination. I think everyone realised the futility of a team dm. Although to our credit we did give it a bloody good try!!

Then we got a team of 9 I think, we had the full team and kicked a$$ everytime we played a domination game!!

Good games last night. I really had a lot of fun!

And loved the end private match. Poor fox hehehehe
