    Fair enough. The way I saw it was that although it's great to hear things are moving, we should get more updates from GL themselves. Ryan is doing a great job and I understand making promises could actually backfire, but I feel sort of left in the dark regarding what's going on. It's bad PR because it reinforces the fact that what you're doing, i.e. at least give us hints of what we could expect, they should be doing. But I understand I can't blame them directly for this.

    They can't get it to run properly on something as powerful as a 360: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mu0PfsOMnk0

    Slow clap for GL.Goes to show you can give them the strongest chipset in the world and they still can't do anything worthwhile with it,Whereas there's(sorry rip) Kz running and looking better on 1/6th of it's power.

    Anyone else tired of talking/hearing about GL's suckiness/non-suckiness, or how MC5 compared to a toaster oven?

    What are your top 5 for an update? Mine in no particular order:

    1. Better anti-hacking
    2. More maps
    3. Big fix for getting killed through walls (not the lag-related type)
    4. Bug fix for stupid grenade suicides
    5. More weapon variety

    While the things you mentioned are.important they aren't as important as having fun with the game which is impossible in it's current state,Give me 'locked' 30fps and then those other things.I'm not trying to put anyone down but merely state that it's not the hardware that's the problem it's the devs who don't care to fix it months later,I almost feel 'ripped' off.:cool:

    1 maps
    2 modes
    3 anti hacking/cheats
    4 random kill through walls
    5 maps

    Maps are twice as important as everything else ;)

    Here's my list in order of priority(descending) :
    1. Locked 30 fps in both sp and mp.
    2.Better anti hacking.
    3.More maps(if possible maps with 20 player support and vehicles and destruction and jet,Ships and tanks).;)
    4.Cooler guns(like really cool)
    5.better server support.

    Sorry to hear that. Fortunately, I don't have the same problem as you. The game could run a bit better on my 5S, but it runs well enough for me.

    I totally forgot about better spawns and new modes. I knew I was missing something. Both of those definitely trump the grenade suicides for me, since they rarely happen. I'd have to give some thought to my new top 5.

    Triscuitable, what do you mean by toggled sprint?

    I keep dying in mp because of the lag,It's like watching a movie with on eye closed or something similar whatever it is it's certainly not fun anymore.Try playing something at 30+fps and then at 20-25 you'll know what I'm talking about specially a first person shooter.

    The priority IMO is getting rid of bugs affecting gameplay: lag (whether it's on the graphic or server side), getting shot through walls, grenade suicide, hacking, weapons / classes balancing.

    Well you would say that as a self confessed noob ;) really the update should all be about customising our avatar. I want mine to be wearing snow cammo. Just coz :p

    Seriously though, the through walls shooting, nade suicides (doesn't affect me but I know it's an issue) need to be sorted.
    As for the guns, it's difficult. I think they need to have guns that are better than others, but there needs to be trade offs. For example; the red maybe the most accurate but maybe reduce its fire rate so it's slower. Making a less powerful gun fire fast to give it that edge.
    also would like to see more impact on personalising your gun - or at least it being indicated. Like when you add the extended mag you run slower etc.

    Also I would like the steady sprint for Recon to be slightly more that just no animation when sprinting. It looks weird :)

    On another note is MC3 worth getting as part of the bundle?

    MC3 is a great game, probably one of the best in the series, but not many people play it any more, there was a few times where I got into full matches when I reinstalled the game a few months ago, I recommend getting it if it's only a few dollars.

    MC3 could have been great, but they went the paidmium route. The campaign was meh, but the online would have been really good were it not for the stupid coin system.

    MC2 is still my favorite

    MC3 is great and worth getting, but the graphical step down is a little jarring for a bit after playing MC5 for so long.

    Now that tail would be awesome!

    Hoover boots... GL has invented hoover boots ;)

    Thanks all for the rec's about MC3, I think I can get it for a couple of dollars... its a shame that MC4 was bought from a different account, I would probably get it for free :(

    I'm happy to mention this to the Game CM, but at the end of the day it's up to the team if they are willing to address this. I have to wait to get information from them so I do the best I can. I definitely understand where you're coming from though, so we'll see!

    I wanted to address this because when I initially posted about the bundle we weren't fully aware how the bundles worked, so here we go:

    If you bought MC3 and MC4 at the regular, full price then you can get MC5 for free.

    If you got either MC3, MC4, or both at a discounted price ($0.99 promo/free promo) then you'll need to pay the difference from those promos based on the list price on the App Store currently.

    This system is really weird because in the second scenario, it's more than likely cheaper to buy the game individually than to buy the bundle. However, if you fit the conditions for the first scenario, paying full price for both games, then you're good to go for free stuff!

    Sorry for any confusion and thanks for bearing with me as I learn about the bundles >.<

    I understand that. I just think getting us more involved would make the wait for either bug fixing or new content less frustrating.

    Are you saying you're left in the dark as well? I'm starting to see a pattern here. ;)

    Thanks Ryan, very much appreciated as always.
