Its Seacom. Afrihost will also be having issues...

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

Haha, yeah it may not be the 'official' servers but it's sometimes real handy to be able to play local at RIG

LOL... Get yourself a Merc. You will never look back. Everything is at your fingertips...

It's ok BUT!!!!!!!!
I absolutely hate that you have to use numlock each time you have to press delete, then numlock off for 1 and all that, the integration of the home, page up/down, arrows and those keys is a slep if you do than just game

if you really go that way rather a snipa game pad v2 or or thermaltake flare. And you still have a fully functional keyboard





So who is waiting for the new DLC to start downloading???????

 

[Kyubi_ZA]

I almost forgot about the DLC :wtf:

Thanks for the reminder. I was going to download the beta client for Medal of Honor.

 

[fridgevr]

Yep busy downloading. I see a spas war coming on Trailer Park.

 

[fridgevr]

OMG this sucks ass. Mosh pit has been removed. Now i feel violated.

Anyone having a problem with the new maps? When I try load a game with a new map, I get a flash of a chequered purple and green screen, then the game crashes and quits. Any ideas?

It appears as if the main files downloaded into the C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps folder, but were not unpacked into the C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\call of duty modern warfare 2\zone\dlc folder. Anyone?

I'm seacom nerfed so no update or dlc for me. By the time they sort it out you guys should suffer from mapathy again.

The download was dog slow last night, so I left the PC on overnight, and this morning it is finished.
I can only try out these new maps this afternoon

LoL @ Mapathy

I couldn't really try the map pack last night with my 384kbs line When I checked my PC this morning it was done though. I will give it a bash today!

@ Slayer - Feel your pain

 

[Kyubi_ZA]

Not a good time for Seacom to be down...

6-8 days to resolve. I wont be enjoying the map pack with lags

 

[SirFooK'nG]

My Afrihost 1gig account downloaded the new maps & the Updates for 2 Pc's in 30min flat!! But that was at at about 22H00. Was to tired to try them out, will do it today!

 

[Kyubi_ZA]

I changed my content server to Japan. It seem to have downloaded at much better speeds.

Hey there, I just noticed Steam is downloading an 8gig update for MW2. I cant find any links as to what it includes? When I click "view details" on the download it just links me to the MW2 news page and the news there is from a few days back regarding PS3 DLC etc, nothing about a PC update. I didnt buy either of the DLC's. Are we getting new maps(without having purchaced a dlc), or is this just a client update? Or is it just me, and maybe my files where corrupted and its fixing itself...?
