Not if you have it set not to.

The map shaped like a box with a cross running through it, yeah? I knew someone that tried that and only ever got spawn delays for accidental teamkilling.

Yup, that’s the map. I’m amazed the found a server with teamkilling on… or is it on by default in the console version. I honestly can’t remember.

Pokemon pre-orders announced. Yeah, I’m a little late.

I want that steel case SO MUCH! The Charizard plushie is not worth $80

We have seawater! But it’s kind of gross.

Oh the classic tossing and turning and foruming in bed…

Right, I have a query. I moved into my new student house yesterday and discovered there aren’t any ethernet ports in the room. Luckily my room is the closest to the router (which is in the hallway), and my xbox is by the door and no more than 5-6 feet away from the router.

Now, the question: Would an ethernet extension cable severely slow down xbox live, or would it be fine?

Update: No need, with a bit of technical trickery (stretching the bloody cable as far as it’ll go), I’ve managed to get by with just the standard ethernet cable.

On that topic, people have said that ethernet cables can be faster, given the circumstances. Whether that is true or not I don’t know, but there you are. Personally, I’m fine with wireless. Our download speed may not be the best, but I barely suffer any networking problems on Xbox Live, & I have other things to do while things are downloading. That being said, enjoy the new hideout!

So today was the first day back at school. News flash: Wearing black trousers/pants, black sweatshirts & black shoes during THIS weather is a bad idea. But…that’s the school uniform for ya!

Thanks man! Yeah I prefer ethernet cables, it’s always been faster for me.

My mates haven’t moved in yet (It’s a nine bedroom house) so it’s pretty lonely here at the minute. Xbox Live should keep me occupied for a few days at least.

One more week!!! :smiley:

Yup, then lots of looting aliens

I’ve never really had a problem with fridge space, my flatmates last year became my close friends and I’m living with them again plus some other mates this year, that should be fine.

We also have two fridges and two freezers so it isn’t too bad.

Odd. It worked fine on my chromebook using chrome. Maybe it depends on connection?

The emblem looks pretty neat. Plus, exploring all the locations was also fun. (the Cabal tank looks sweet!)
