Well if your thinking of buying COD5 I say wait till the 5th patch is out. The first clue was the fact that Activision/Treyarch had to release a patch the same day that the game was put on the shelves.
I have a fairly fast up to date PC running Vista these are the Problems I have run into.
1. After installing the game would not run at all.
Fix. changed sound driver.
2. Sometimes starting the game it crashes before it starts.
Fix. Just restart the game again and it will tell you the game
failed to shut down properly do you want to start in safe mode.
just press no and the game starts and runs fine.
3. Game may or may not just freeze and then your fucked, this
has happened to me three times.
The above was all "solo player".
Now for multilayer the forums are already telling Treyarch to go fuck themselves, due to the fact that a lot of players are getting the same problem. You join a server and you get 'Server Authentication failure", and you can't join any server.
If i get on a server I get booted from PnkBst due to a failure of it's exe file not executing.
Gasp,,,Gasp,,,Gasp...
Hopefully we will see a new patch , the second, real soon.
If you have bought the game already or getting it from Santa,
Good luck
LoxxX you seem to have no problems with this, or am I wrong.

I haven't really had a lot of multiplayer problems at all. The only things I've seen are not being able to join a COOP server. You click on the join server button and it won't even attempt to join.
The only other thing I've seen is a failure to show the video between mission in singleplayer.

How many _Few members have COD5?
Also, how many -UFE- members have COD5 Loxxx?
Still debating with myself wether to buy COD5 or Left 4 Dead.

I'm planning on buying it but I've heard the same about many people having problems with it. So I'll hold off for a bit and wait for the price to drop alittle.
Hell I just picked up Farcry 2 for $18 new on Amazon last night $18 !!!! Free shipping because I bought two.

I'll probably pick it up once I hear it's running right. I'll be thrilled to be playing FOUR again! It's actually kind of cool that this movie is delaying me. It's making me super anxious to play. I'll be so impatient you guys will be getting easy kills for weeks. No, wait a second. I was always an easy kill... shit. Whatever. I'll see you guys when we're done shooting.
peace. bubs

Well even after dumping my Punkbuster as per instr. from the above mentioned site, and reinstalling it, I still can't play for more than a minute in multi-player. $70.00 bucks is a bit much for a sort single player game, Activision really fucked up this time.....

Maybe turn off your hacks then PunkBuster will work ? I would totally uninstall , run some "cleaners", manually check for left over PB files , then install the PB version supllied on the COD5 disk  |

I'm about ready to give this game up. Kaz and DW and Loxxx have had no problems with this game, I've had nothing but one fuck up after another. Anyone else get this game yet?
I've been talking to Punkbuster but so far after trying several of there "ideas" I still cannot play multi-player. I tried your idea of reinstalling Kaz but no go.
If anyone wants this game I can save you $20 buck and you can buy this one.

I GIVE UP. My advice is to stay as far away from this game as you can. I have been in contact with Punkbuster for over six week to fix all the problems with this game and still multiplayer does not work due to Punkbuster.I give this game 5 middle fingers up.
