I beat this game in about 2 days of moderate playing on the second level of difficulty. I was amazed at how much fun I had. I beat Doom but I almost hated playing it. I really didn't care what happened in Doom either. In CoD 2 I love the WW2 story and action. I picked up an xfi soundcard and some logitech X530 speakers that are 5.1 so it sounds like a warzone here.

I bumped up the difficulty and made it through most of the Brittish campaign so far. I seem to have gotten stuck where the mission starts in the city when you're on the 2nd floor of a house using an Mg42. You get on the halftrack with the captain driving and it's all pie until I turn the corner to find 2 guys with anti-tank weapons on the roof, 2 more on the ground and a tank facing me also where the captain stalls the halftrack. I've ran it about 50 times and I've killed all 4 of the ground troops since they generally shoot first and 1 shot you're dead... I use the german machine gun with 32 rounds here because as you make the turn the turret gets turned and aiming it is near impossible. I can sometimes take out the 4 ground troops but I never get a chance to swing the turret around before the tank fires also. Anyone have any insight into this part of the game on the 3rd highest difficulty level? On the second highest difficulty level I pwnd it pretty easy since the ground troops don't fire near as quickly but this level is much more difficult.
