Hmmh cant play CoD4 anymore, i get kicked because punkbuster sais unknown windows api process, error bla bla, but i havent installed or uninstalled anything, nor does any scan pick up any "shady" process.
I bought my CoD4 on Steam coz it was 250 EEK cheaper than here in the shops.

Its almost funny, if not pathetic. I managed to put in a few hours of gameplay today. But then i wanted to change my custom build and had disconnect from server, when i reconnected (while having not quit the game, just went to the main menu) again got the unknown windows API process. I have serious doubts that this unknown API process is actually steam.exe itself.

Lol, I just got past the assassination level. Just on the bit where you've got to hold until your chopper comes (Chernobyl)
Awesome.
Veteran mode sucks.

That level is hard as hell. Holding out for the chopper rescue is insanely difficult. Laying in the field with guys walking by you was insane as well. I actually dislike most of that level. It's just way off. I don't know how many dogs' necks I had to snap in that level.

I was right, turned out steam ingame friend manager was the cause for punkbuster kicks. If you have steam running, disable the bastard.

DO NOT READ BELOW IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW ANYTHING. No major spoilers though. However, I'm now stuck on

I got stuck there for a bit as well. I ended up tossing a lot of grenades. One forward to clear the forward passage, then down the side passages to try and keep from being shot in the back while you charge down one or the other. I think I used the shottie here... once you get into the sides it's not THAT bad. The problem is getting in one without getting shot from the other.

Well, I've just finished the game.
How the heck do you do the mission after the credits?! Zomg! 60 seconds? A joke!
EDIT: YES! YES! GOD YES! I DID IT!
Completed everything on veteran including the secret level

The secret level wasn't all that hard. The hardest part was shooting that guy in the face. :p Good stuff though. It was really fun and the Airplane (movie) reference was great.

Don't call me Shirley?
And not that hard?! It took me four hours to complete it on Veteran! FOUR FRIGGIN' HOURS! It only took 7-8 to finish the game! But still, it would have been easy with more time. I had no problem shooting the guy in the head though.

lol, crazy bastard. It's not bad, I'll admit. Just too short. Did you unlock all the cheats? I only got probably half of them and they weren't worth more than maybe 5 minutes of entertainment.

Yeah, I got them all.
"Really bad year" is fun, but the best ones are cluster bomb (each grenade splits in to 6 or so other grenades after exploding) and the Rag something war something. The game is sped up dramatically, and funny old timey film music plays with old timey film effects, but no other sound.
It's the multiplayer that's really got me hooked, I got from level 1 to level 26 in pretty much one session, and this is the 3rd time through the levels for me. It's mental.

IMO the multiplayer was even weaker than the SP.
I mean the maps play out pretty much the same. 0 variety aside of 1 or 2 maps.
