We are continuing our improvements to the e-mail notifications users receive for activity related to them on your community. Users can now receive notifications to their email for updates to conversations they are a part of, when others comment on content they have added (photos, videos, etc), forum threads they have started, when their content is featured, friend requests and much more. Users can now manage what they receive notifications for from their account settings.

Forums

We added the option to edit signatures directly on forum posts. Now users do not need to go to a forum settings page to edit their signature, they can access the feature directly on any of their forum posts. By doing this we have also been able to make it easy for forum moderators to edit an offensive user signature as well.

We have removed the forum avatar option. The user pic shown in the forums is now the same as everywhere else on the site; the user’s profile picture.

Under the forums search box we have replaced the forum settings link with a “My Subscriptions” link. This shows all the current threads the user is subscribed to, gives them quick access to see updates and gives them an easy way to unsubscribe if they desire.

Groups

We have improved the way you approve members that are waiting to join your groups. Now the Approve/Decline option is directly on the page and easily accessible, instead of having to hover over the user pic to see the option. We have also improved group creation to give better feedback for errors when creating a group, such as already having a group by the same name.

Dialog and Settings Windows

In this update we have also worked to standardize all the dialog and settings pop-up windows to work the same way as the site management windows. This improves user experience for things such as the Rich Text Editor element, allowing you to resize and move the editing window to give you a more flexible work environment.

As with any major update there is a chance for problems and issues. If you encounter issues please let us know about them by using the Contact Us link.  DO NOT post issues in comments. We welcome your feedback

It's official people. Gears of War 3 is slated for April 2011.  This will be the final installment in the epic story of Delta Squad. Personally, I am anxious to find out how the story will end. The dramatic tone of the "Ashes to Ashes" trailer sets the stage for a brutal storyline that is sure to please. With Jacinto in ruins, Delta Squad and the remaining survivors make their last stand to save the human race from extinction.

Releases

• North America - April 5, 2011
• Japan - April 7, 2011
• Europe and the rest of the world - April 8, 2011

Who will be buying this game? Tell us if you will be waiting in line at midnight release. Or will you be laughing at the fanboys for playing after the Gears of War 2 installment?

The footer app bar has been in beta testing for the last few weeks. Thanks to our members we have been able to work out known bugs and improve the overall experience. Let us know what you think.

Thanks,

Daddy

EA ANNOUNCES BATTLEFIELD: BAD COMPANY 2 LIMITED EDITION

Stockholm, Sweden – October 23, 2009 – DICE, an Electronic Arts Inc. studio (NASDAQ: ERTS), today announced a Limited Edition* release of Battlefield: Bad Company™ 2, the premier first-person shooter of 2010. The Limited Edition game features six special gameplay unlocks that give players a tactical advantage on the battlefield from the minute they fire up the game. Battlefield: Bad Company 2 has been recognized by critics worldwide for its uncompromising action gameplay, unprecedented level of destruction, vehicular warfare, squad play and open sandbox environments in a modern warfare game. Available while supplies last, the Limited Edition version of the game will be sold at the same price as the standard version of the game with participating retailers in North America on March 2, 2010 and in Europe on March 5, 2010.

The Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Limited Edition delivers six special customizations early to give players a day one advantage in multiplayer matches. Four vehicle warfare unlocks will immediately enhance the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 best-in-class online vehicle warfare experience, delivering extra firepower, radar, and armor for the vehicles. Additionally, the tracer dart attaches to any enemy vehicle and allows RPG-toting teammates to track, lock on, and destroy their adversary. Seasoned veterans of Battlefield 1943™ will be able to immediately re-acquaint themselves with two classic and highly powerful weapons, the M1A1 submachine gun and the M1911 pistol.

The full list of six unlocks are as follows:

Four vehicle warfare unlocks

 Improved Vehicle Armor – An up-armor package is mounted on all vehicle types, decreasing the effect of both explosive and penetrating warheads, significantly improving vehicle survivability.

 Supreme Vehicle Firepower – Additional weapon packages are mounted for the driver of all armored vehicles, greatly expanding the range of targets the vehicle can successfully engage and destroy.

 Vehicle Motion Sensor – Use this electronics warfare package to locate enemy units in direct proximity to the vehicle.

 Tracer Dart Pistol – This magnetic dart attaches to any vehicle surface, allowing squad members to track, lock on, and fire rockets onto moving targets even beyond line of sight.

Two classic Battlefield 1943™weapons

 M1A1 Submachine Gun – Reliable but heavy this classic weapon is a powerful force in the hands of any Battlefield veteran.

 M1911 Pistol – Highly customized M1911 are favored for its dependability and the power of its large .45 caliber round.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will be available on March 2, 2010 in North America for the Xbox 360® videogame and entertainment system, the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and the PC. The game will be available on March 5, 2010 in Europe.

This is the infamous unlimited care package glitch on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Most of us have already had the opportunity to experience this feat of noobage. If you have yet to see this online feel free to view the video above. As  you can see, the glitch is fairly easy to pull off. The cost of such douche baggery may be more than you're willing to pay if you are one of the many players using this glitch.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 for the PS3 has been patched. The following fixes were applied.

- Care Package, Emergency Airdrop, and Sentry Gun marker grenades sprint speed normalized.
- Fix for "infinite care package" exploit.
- Sentry Guns: Improved placement detection, preventing cases of Sentry Guns inside geometry.
- Model 1887: Bling using Akimbo and FMJ combination now has same range and damage as non-Bling Model 1887s.
- Fixes to prevent various XP hacks.

The patch for the Xbox 360 version of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was pulled from Microsoft certification. There were additional fixes that needed to be applied. Guess us hardcore Xbox 360 gamers will have to wait just a little longer.

Let us know what you think. How will this glitch affect your gaming strategy? How many have already moved on to other games because of the current glitching issues?
