Sorry, what is NFSU2?

Anyways, do you see what I mean, if I am getting this right (not likely :D) you willbe able to invite and toss people to and from the clan. Now you can check your stats to....this means the site has to load almost constantly to keep up with the thousands of names. OR: They could load it once at night, like say 4 Am eastern? To do all of that, you'd basicly have to be linked DIRECTLY to the main server, or am I wrong????

NFSU2=Need For Speed UnderGround 2

A website? That looks cool.....This sounds like a copy of halo 2 though because they have the same kinda thing

this is going to be a great feature as it will allow you to send one message such as "The clan room is up" to all your clan members online. You wont have to do it individually which saves a lot of time.

I'm anxious to see the web interface myself. I'm pretty confident in my thinking that your online stats will be stored in either a SQL or Oracle database. This could explain why there's no alt/special characters allowed in names anymore.

What i think is going to be the case, and I havent really done too much to verify this lately so Im just going off of what I last read, is that the messaging system in game or out of game in the main menu will be much more user friendly. In socom two, we could send messages while in a game if we typed "/w 'NAME' space then message". I think in the third addition to the series, while dead, we can view stats, send/recieve messages and check our mail. In socom 2, we sent a message and if they werent on it said "Message wont be recieved bcause player is not currently logged on" this time we can send messages and the player can check them when he gets on, and they will be waiting for him in his mailbox. If anyone has played Final Fantasy XI I think it will be very similar to the PlayOnline format.

EA games did a good job on the Instant messenger for each EA games. This is a great new feature.
