I have decided that as long as my gameplay consists of roughly one hour every other day, I'm not going to play online. Tired of getting my butt kicked by teenagers on spring break who are playing it ten times as much as I am X(
12GB isn't that uncommon these days. Mass Effect 2, GTA IV, they've all been 12 gigs. But I have a feeling they've also been a lot more massive games.Someone returned the collector's edition at Gamestop today. Guess who picked it up?
BTW, 12 GIGS for an install? WTF?!

this is by far the biggest problem i've had with the mp, the amount of people who go for rush tactics rather than actual strategic tactics. i've always believed that those who use rush tactics are merely unable to think tactically and just go for the cheap kill so they can go one place higher in the leaderboards. only the other day i won a 3v3 match and the other player promptly declared us and his own team a "bunch of starcraft nerd fags" since i am already a sci-fi nerd i can take it on the chin and smile, but it does speak a lot about his state of mind.
give the co-operative mode a go, so far i've found it fun. although on the medium mode, a sizeable enemy assault begins early so you need a proper defence straight away. given up counting the amount of times i've had to come to the rescue of other players who have gone for setting up a second resource base instead of building a army.

I wouldn't disparage rushing. It's a legitimate tactic as turtling at first while you tech, just like how going for a takedown is as legitimate as standing toe-to-toe in MMA. Back at the last RTS I didn't suck at (C&C Generals), I'd routinely rush (technicals and suicide bombers into their economy). I wouldn't do this because I didn't know how to tech and build a large army, but because it game me an economic advantage while we both teched up. I could have my sophisticated army ready before they did if they spent the first five minutes of the game defending their economy instead of preparing to fight me. And if they caved completely from an early rush, that works too.
It's just good sense to put pressure on an opponent early and often. Rushing is one part of that.

Just brings me back to the whole "why do I have to install my games and console guys don't" question. Anyway, it's installed but I haven't been able to touch it yet.
