HoC Random Picture of the Day – 10312011
It is Zombie related...
A certain number of these (three) may require a significant amount of grovelling.
Maybe begging.
And there is also the possibility of violence...

Zombie Specific Ammo now available
Any Zombie Trick or Treaters at my house may be in for a surprise tonight
We talked about Zombie specific ammo back in 2007. Someone stole our idea and made it real.
This is a real product sold by Midsouth Shooters Supply. Available in multiple calibers. You know... just in case.
I ordered some 12 gauge 00 buckshot so I would be ready. Now if only I had a shotgun. For some reason the government of Ontario and Canada both seem to think giving me a shotgun would be a bad idea.
"Sorry officer, shooting your cruiser was an accident. Honest! I was aiming for Stormblade!"
Anyway, no shotgun but at least they didn't press any charges. They couldn't find a body...
- New From Hornady!!! Zombie Max Ammo! - You knew it was only a matter of time.... Whether you want to talk about them or not - Zombies are coming to a range near you! With the flood of Zombie Targets and shooting events now with Zombie themes, Hornady Manufacturing felt the ONLY ammo worth using was Certified Zombie Ammunition. Hornady has placed it's own special "Z-Max" Glowing Green Tipped Bullet in a variety of zombie shooting calibers. Hornady estimates shipping all calibers minus the 12ga around Oct 31st, 2011. Have no doubt, this is not a toy! This is live ammunition!

stay tuned
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha... phew... sure, I believe them
EA says Battlefield servers should be solid now
Which is apparently different from how they should have been solid on launch day.
From MP1st – BF3 – EA Has “Gotten a Handle On” Server Issues. “Should be Solid” Now.
- This is something many players have obviously has issues with in the first few days after launch. However, it seems EA is getting the hang of things according to Gibeau. “We were very rapid in our response there. We were able to get those back up. We feel like we’ve really gotten a handle on it now, and the service as it scales to the release in Europe this weekend, should be solid.”

Ea wants you to know its your fault
EA's Battlefield 3 servers may be down but it's easier to blame the user.
Better than fixing their servers I guess. Three days after launch...

After following the advice of some of my artist friends and coxxorz here is the painted gun.
Maybe.
Assuming that 1) more than two of us have Battlefield 3 by now, and 2) there is a multiplayer server to connect with.

Sometimes I hate being right
So, as I'm sure many of you are aware by this point, the launch of BF3 is a f*cking gongshow. As I predicted.
Not only are the 360 servers down...so are the PC ones...and...so are their online authentication servers.
Seriously, EA? Seriously?!!
After inputting my code to DL the Online pass...I could not get into any MP games. Coxxorz warned me that the servers for 360 were down...but that was like 4 hours ago. Surely they've got peeps working to fix that, like NOW.
Nope. Read more
Battlefield 3.....my initial thoughts.
So, since EB Games would NOT cancel my pre-order, I picked it up yesterday at lunchtime.
Ok, I have to confess, I was a little confused about what was going on with the "online pass" bullshit. Now that I got the game, I understand and I HATE it.
So basically, you buy a game that does NOT let you play multiplayer without registering an account online. They give you a passcode to redeem in the box, but once that used, the game no longer has multiplayer; if you were to sell it....or wanted to rent it...you'd only get single player. (unless you paid 800 MS points for a new code) Read more
