I need to knock out those zombie achievements before this release, and we still need to get past level 19!

Thursday Map Pack 3 Zombie Spree? I'm game.

Looking forward to this purchase as long as everyone plays it.

Looks like it'll be good to hold me over until ODST.

Sounds pretty fun. Each map seems to be an entirely different experience. Looking forward to this one, but I'll be traveling next week, so I'll have to get my fill this weekend.

I got a little preview of the map this morning before I left. First room is pretty open with 4 windows and only one exit to purchase. This room leads into a small room with 2 more windows, M1A1 rifle, and another door with a trap attached to it.

I'll be gaming it a lot of the day for sure. I'm still trying to get the last two achievements on MP2, need to get the trap one and 75k (Might try to knock these out before others get on for MP3 so we can all be fresh to the map). I got to level 21 solo last night but made a stupid mistake. I now know two good strats for the dogs, not sure if the one I use solo would work with 4 players... basically just run big circles out at the comm station with shottie.

I will be on around 9 pm tonight.

I will be on around 9 as well.

Sorry Midnight, same thing happened to me. I got disconnected from live and couldn't reconnect.

I've never been kicked off of XBL like that. Pretty hard core beat down they laid on me.

Just checked and I can sign on this morning. Sucks that we just downloaded the maps and were getting into the action...

Major Nelson confirms the LIVE crash: http://twitter.com/majornelson/status/3173874897

LIve is currently having issues....it's not at your end. The LIVE Engineers are working on it.about 9 hours ago from web

Yeah that was the first time I've been kicked off live like that. We started a new game after you got booted, got to about round 7 when I got smacked by live.

Super hard to manage the game with 4 people. The map is huge, the zombies are smarter, and they can attack from above and below.

And why haven't we activated an electric barrier yet?

Bowie knife didn't seem to do one-hit-kills after level 12.

An upgraded Colt pistol (the one you spawn with) shoots rockets when you spend the 5000 points to upgrade it at the Pack a Punch machine.

Zombies seem to be even more "magnetic" so they are often in a stream. Lightning gun can take many out at once, as can various grenades.

Celery has the leet strat. He goes down in Round 1/2, but we all die every round until Round 17.

A nice post! Worth reading it.
