Very interesting read on the in game ads

[[MyIS]Steve]

these might actually be beneficial

a long-time beta-tester, has grown accustomed to the pop-ups. He claims that they have improved his game: “I was playing for a couple of hours when I noticed a pair of Maytag washer and dryers. You know, the stackable kind. I ran up to, and used it to hide behind. I eventually found I could walk through this ad, so I disguised myself in the Maytags. I sat there and sniped myself to a 20-kill streak.

So does that mean ad's will just pop up any where near you :confused:

I thought they would have designated places like on the side of building/cabins and such:confused:

Hey...I didn't post it ;)

I was terrified that it would cause a huge stir with people thinking it was real and I wouldn't have let that happen..so I figured I'd step in early and give people the hint.

That's a good find. :)

Defense Industry spokesman, Gerald Snow, stated in a press conference that General Dynamics, TRW, and Northrop Grumman are all interested to put their future designs into Battlefield 2142. “We need more kids excited about the Military-Industrial Complex. We need beta-testers as much as anyone.”

That one really cracked me up. :D
