    Finished updating. The update took about an hour to download. They fixed the awards for all bronze medals for weapons as I finally got the medals. But I didn't get the points for it (10,000) and (5000) which kinda sucks. Haven't played yet to see in game improvements. Must sleep.

    Finished download in less than 30 minutes using University's bandwidth lol. Hmmm haven't noticed anything different other than the Vietnam button. For those that have the PB problem with Nvidia Optimus, it still kicks you out >.>

    Played last night and was using the scopes on the m14 and g3 and so were many others players also. Haven't played any new maps yet, but the scopes are a welcome change.

    If anyone is interested in helping us out, our server is running only the new maps. Last night we were full for about 7 hours.

    what is everyone using for FOV in BC2??
    For some reason after playing Black Ops for 2 weeks now that i came back to BCwW my eyes kind of hurt. The FOV seems to have maybe changed. Im using FOV=74 with my 1920x1200 RGB screen. And the patch is awesome. Tracers are finally back!!! :)

    Anyone else besides me not like the new maps? It seems to have gone from the occasional camper to all campers (On the defenders side). Harvest day is beyond horrible, even with smoke it makes little difference. I know it's players personal preference. StevenX
