Yeah, but if you installed patch 1.01 you probably didn't notice many trophies popping up...? And if you installed 1.02, you'll not be able to get online (so I hear - I'm not installing any of the patches until forums indicate they don't break something).

And just to reinforce my point that everything needs testing whether it was related to the fix or not:

MW2 v1.01 was to add the option to skip the Airport Massacre, and broke trophy support...

MW2 v1.02 was to fix the trophy support, and broke online connectivity...

MW2 v1.03 will be to fix connectivity. Wonder what it will break...?

I like the single player in this game, but the multiplayer is the worst. I think since I got this game at launch, I probably have had the chance to play it in MP 10 times. Since then I get the usual BOP error finding the servers.

It seems as if they only have one server, and it is probably an old Pentium II. I bet their server is in Chernobyl. I had a friend ask if he should buy it and I told him no. I explained to him that the MP is broken and that I have not felt like even finishing the SP, because there was no reason to. Maybe this patch will make the game enjoyable one day. Until then, I will stick to MW2 and GOW2(which also had a problem initially with MP). Maybe I will buy a better gfx card for my core I7 pc and play some flight sims instead, possibly Storm of War: Battle of Britain.

On sequels, I will wait months after it comes out if I even decide to chance buying from these guys again.

Hmm, seems like the server message is more of a problem than I thought. BoP actually works with players as hosts, using only a server to help others find those hosts. If you get that message, it means no one is hosting a joinable game at that moment.

I did both patches, trophies work but I haven't played MP yet. I only play SP but I made and exception for BOP.
