XBOX live is free after the yearly subscription is paid, so we're not really paying to play online.

I still play on a regular basis. With Summer on it's way that may come to an end, I wouldn't trade camping and wheelin' for anything.

The new maps are out.......you will need to buy one of the map packs or wait until june 28th to get it free. The other is free and both are great plus there is an auto update that eliminates a lot of cheats.

I still play. Doing lots of clan matches now. The new maps and playlists are much better plus the modifications they did to the online play are great.

Its taken me a while to get back, and im only up to a 13. But it is easier to level, and a hell of a lot better with all the patches they introduced. ~5 new maps are coming out soon, as well as more adjustments made to game play...such as taking the banshee out in Acension, during Human BR. (which is total crap, since that will only HELP the snipers dominate now)

IF anyone is actually interested, I'm always looking for higher level (15+) to be on my friends list, as well as in my clan. Right now, i need clan members since all the people in my clan left before we could play any matches.

Rank isn't that improtant to me anymore. I have about 10 guys and a few girls in a e-mail group and we stay intouch that way. We have been playing together since the game came out, well most of us. Since the stats have been reset I haven't been able to play as much, all the of the wheelin and work has been keeping me busy.

Rank is important to me, cause it keeps me playing with guys that are my level. Im not interested in playing with guys who are level 25, cause I know they are mass good and would whoop my ass in an instant. I dont have the time to practice to get as good as them.
