Need to go back to office on Sat to do some work. Altough officially we are working a 5 day week sometimes there is simply too much work we have to come back on Saturday :(
Hopefully next Saturday is free.
Tried out DoW online. First battle I managed to play was a 2v2. The problem is, by 3 minutes my enemies has a big army combined together; several choas marine squads and his commander together with several sniper squads fully armed with sniper rifles :P. By 5 minutes by opponent's base is overrun and by 6 minutes we are dead. Woopee... kena rush.
Seconds was a 4v4. Everything looked good at first. But as my ally started engaging the enemy team, things grinded to a halt. Everyone on the battlefield froze. The game was not frozen though, as I can still move around and select units. But the game froze due to extreme lag. Woopee... game aborted due to lag.

Yesterday had 2 very hilarious battles. The first one ended with me winning the game with ZERO loses and wiping out every single unit my opponent has. For some unknown reason my opponent's Inova Wolf, in her Mad Cat can't shoot properly and Shin Wolf performed badly in his charged. My forces meanwhile played a game of staying behind cover and infuriating my opponent.
The 2nd battle was equally hilarious. For fun I made an infantry heavy army with only 1 mech, the Highlander Koshi while up against Geoff Bekker's Kodiak and Kendrick's Mad Cat 3. It was like a scene from the 40,000 universe, where my infantry battalion charged up towards the enemy while some of their brothers are killed in the process. Eventually a group of my infantry managed to make contact with the big bad bear and proceeded to capture it. Geoff the veteren warrior in his kodiak, panic when this group of infantry touched his mech and suffered a critical miss in the process. This later caused himself to be capture for the majaority of the battle. He was later freed after a desperate but eventually successful struggle to elinimate his capturers. At first it looked like the SWs would succeed, but a mistake on Kendrick's part cost him his mech (he thought that infantry standing there was a lousy group of shooters, only to found out they are actually elite snipers). And most of the time the units that actually made victory possible was my opponent's infantry and vehicles (Honorary mention to the SW Maxim). While the mechs....... I dunno what to say.

Had a very hectic week. The usual got to finish up the drawing for contractor or client and meeting with client to discuss what is wanted for the project. But it's still ok and I managed to get some things done before the weekend :)
Nothing much to say except that I did not went to play MW this week because my MW friends had a lot of stuff that needs to be done. So this Saturday I felt it was like Sunday in which I did not go anywhere.
Plugged in my Xbox to play for a while. I noticed that the majority of players in my Xbox Live friend list have already got their Xbox 360 and playing games which are meant for the 360. So I'm the only few who still have the old Xbox and plays Halo 2 online. Mechassualt, Burnout, Crimson Skies all have very little to no players anymore. Which is a pity, since duking it out with 8-10 players in Mechassault is absolutely chaotic and fun. Crimson skies when played with a large amount of players is also very fun. Oh well, some games just grow old with time.
