folks wanna see new images/videos, not some tiny text line.
what you really should do (i told you that several times ages ago) is randomly/daily/... change the video. checking on the main page and seeing the kismet vid every time is frustrating and boring.
overall, you're page design is very professional as it focuses on the content. but this also means it sucks ass without the proper content...

can you stop posting forever please

This was the most dumbest post ever.

@Ninja, how do you know "in retrospect" how much the auto-headshots helped?  The assist is only something you can judge while playing, and even then you might just think you are that good that you can pull off headshots so easy.  I wonder how much of the game was played for me, by the game.

And what is this that I've heard about no voice chat on coop for the PC version?  What the fucking fuck?  lmao

Simple. I've noticed some pretty amazing one hit kills going on by me, seemingly by luck, that happen a lot. Once I noticed that auto assist, though, I determined that they were the reason for my 'luck'.

But you said in retrospect that the assist wasn't a big help.  I'm confused.

Agreed, but we lack good videos. :(
You could just make it random as to which video appears on the home page.  That way, it doesn't look the same all the time.  Of course when you get a new and important one you could have that be the focus for a few weeks and then switch back to random.

Then I misspoke the first time.

Ooh, someone's angry, isn't he?

Anyway, even looking past the auto headshots(which actually don't help that much, in retrospect), I found the campaign pretty enjoyable, although the co-op campaign was a bit lackluster and easy, even on realistic.

Lol Ninja you 180'd on me.   :P

Is there seriously no voice communication on COOP?  Isn't that just complete and total proof that Ubi is about as lazy as it gets nowadays?  It makes it hard for me to enjoy their games when they pull this crap.  Knowing that the devs didn't care about their product makes me care less about it.  You know what I mean?

VenomousNinja

I know there's voice COOP in the 360 version, I've tested this. Dunno about PC.

Farley4Fan

Ya apparently they didn't implement voice communication into a cooperational game mode for PC.  Don't know how that makes sense.  But whatever.

i just finished the sp portion of the game in about 8 hours (fooling around a lot), i'm really happy i didn't spend any money on this. i have to admit it was pretty good, but seriously, come on ubisoft!
making games shorter and disregarding the mp part is something i'm not willing to support. especially not for 50+ bucks...

don't bullshit me, just put it on ramdom. the lakehouse vid is way more impressive than the kismet stuff anyways...

Interesting idea!
Will hopefully be implemented during the weekend, after I re-render the files first.

Maybe do a vid doc on the devs.  Just to show that they are alive and not fishing on the moon or something.

Am I asking too much to say...

I demand HD (or Near HD) Quality Videos!

Make it an option to watch it in HD, of course, for those with lesser internet connections. Or just make it possible to download them in HD, but you can only stream them in whatever you have now.

Now if by Re-Render you mean this exact thing, then Carry On.

Edit: On futher inspection I see SOME videos are a good size, and some show signs that they were going to have a higher Res version (Lakehouse). Make those available.

Edit2: Seems that all the ones that are .wmv are the crappy culprits! Plus those ones (and I'm not sure if I'm the only one) never gives a real time for downloading. Just keeps downloading saying, "Unknown Time Remaining" till it's done.
If you haven't noticed, I'm REALLY good at making a simple response into a wall of text.
