My copy was posted on Thusday but I don't have it yet

Is it true the the matchmaking servers are locked now to stop people playing MP early? I did read that IW were going to reset all the leaderboards and ranks before the release date on the 10th.

I don't know exactly what you mean but I've been playing Free for All for awhile with no bother, no lag, no problems, been ranking up a little but I've been goofing and not going for good stats...and yes they will be reset on the actual release date.

I got mine from CoolShop.co.uk, they sent it out on the 4th and said to customers that Royal Mail will pick them up pre-emptively for a strike on the 9th, and they would be delivering for the 10th.

Mine came on a Saturday at 9am Awesome as hell...love this game so much.

not everyone has been banned. I'm a little worried about playing this early due to this reason. If I get banned for playing this version early, there's nothing I can say to them since my console is modded also.

But lets move away from the bannings topic

No, they may eventually put on a short campaign chapter on like they did with Waw.

Rumours suggests ASDA will be selling it around £32 until stocks run out. Not sure about Sainsbury's but still lower than £35.

I'm going to ASDA around midnight tonight to have a snoop - if it turns out to be false then I've got an order on which may also come today or arrive tomorrow.

I've heard they are resetting the online part of it on the 10th. So all points and classes will return to new. So do the single player. But I could be wrong
