About the only planning I do with my AI counterparts (in single and multiplayer) is to tell them to "hold position" in key choke points, thereby reducing the chance of terrorists circling around from behind.

I sitll don't fully understand the "go Codes" I have the strategy book and I have had all three teams do exactly as in the book.... I sitll lost half of my teams. I have them cover areas, and I jump from one team to another to get to one main room. then I put them all on code zulu and have them enter the room at one time.

In multiplayer I either leave my team behind or I use them to open and clear rooms (I also use them for this in single palyer)....

Recently I have noticed more terrorists on the server (while playing alone in multiplayer mode) surrendering. I have been using my "lackies" to secure them.

Are these 'terrorists' BOTS? Is multi-player like Co-Op in bf1942 or can you plan against ALL human(oid)s.

Yeah when playing Multiplayer CoOp its against Bots.. but you can play in different Modes i.e Terrorist Hunt, Hostage Rescue, Mission. We can set set the server to play Advisarial or Team Advisarial (Death Matches) once we can get a good number of people to play regularly.

what's cool with the hunter is that you can keep going up in level until you're getting like several hundred thousand bucks per mission. If your wanted level gets too high, just go to sunshine autos real quick and grab a stored vehicle and get it resprayed right there... problem solved!

I tried the RPG strat you're talking about before, but I missed the direct hit... the car rolled a little bit, but the guys managed to get out and gun me down with m60s or whatever they had... not good times...

Oh, I forgot to mention, to get into the army base without getting mowed, just use a cop uniform...

Any game with Lawrence Taylor, Burt Reynolds and Ray Liotta as voice talent is pretty f'n cool in my book

Just to add what Sannop already said, you CAN play COOP vs the bots or go head-to-head AVERSARIAL. We've been playing COOP mostly for a couple reasons. One, we found that we're just not at the level of going head-to-head with any real success (though we do play it when we've got a good number of people online). Two, unlike Battlefield, the BOTS are REALLY good. And they are smart. Plus, they have Hostage Rescue mode with is a great change of pace - and might I add, VERY challenging.

I just experienced some AI craziness on the Prison map.

I immediately went to the sniper nest with an UN-silenced M4. After taking out the usual suspects I noticed that more and more AI reinforcements would come to me. I no time flat (like within 60 seconds of getting there) I have eliminated 24 terrorists. Here are two shots of the carnage....

I PMed you the password again.

Also, make sure you are not already logged on to Ubi.com when you join by IP. It will ask you to join after you enter the IP - and it is OK to do it then, but not before. It's a strange glitch in the browser program.

Yes. There are usually more than that. In fact, right after you and Hightimber left two of the other regulars joined in. We've had 8 on before and it was pretty damn fun. I expect over time we'll get more and more people playing online.

Ey sannop, I just played RS for 1 time but it was incredible, I ´ll have to wait for a few days after playing again cos I´m having some issues with the CD key of the game it seems that the game says my CDkey is already in use, so I emailed Ubisoft to know WTF is going on... still awaiting they respond to me.

Amaryl,

Sometimes that happens when your game boots you to desktop or some other unplanned end of game. The Ubi.com server doesn't see that you've left so it's still holding the CD-key. I've had it happen before. Just keep trying. It should let you in soon.
