did anybody else have some crazy **** happen tonight? one game it was like the speed was doubled..the voices during the match sounded like chipmunks, and when you ran it was faaast, and you went thru a clip of bullets in like 1 second lol...it was hilarious then another team deathmatch game i was playing, every kill counted as 50...you could kill your teammates, and the score was stuck at 0...people had over 100 kills lol..and a lot more players than a normal team deathmatch game weird night lol
If you play mostly Team Deathmatch, you wont see this glitches that often. I'm getting these glitch games far too often trying to play Domination or Search and Destroy.
Usually I play Mercenary Team Deathmatch so I don't see many glitches... however last night I played some Ground War with some friends. Everytime I've played Ground War, I've seen some glitches. That's why I mainly stick to MTD.
Yeah I dont see them much when playing TDM. But I like to play DOmination a lot and see the glitches a lot. Weird.
I played TDM earlier and got sent to a glitched domination game... The game wouldn't end so I quit after an hour... It was so ****ing boring. IW sucks at updates... Get your **** together and fix the ****ing glitching. Is it that hard?
I suggest going back and playing COD4 if you have it... I did, and find I enjoy that game way more than this one.
Infinity Ward is horrible at updating and patching. Say what you will about Treyarch and World At War (which I think is a great game) they were on the ball with updates and they had map packs flying out the window right away. Infinity is like EA. Package it up, no beta and get it out the door. Well, the game is ****ed and we have to patch it again and again and again. If they had done a beta they would have noticed that the maps are ****. They would have noticed that the shotguns are ridiculous. They would have known that the assault rifles can be used as sniper rifles etc. etc. etc.... I love the game but it has some real issues.
Grenade spam. If they got rid of the 3 grenade perk and reduced it to one it would be a great game. Fantastic maps and nicely balanced weapons. Infinity Ward knew from the beginning that the 3 grenade perk was an issue from day one but did nothing about it because it would have taken some work.
The combination of dealing with 3x Grenades along with the constantly Martyrdom deaths....i swear all you would hear in that game was TINK TINK TINK....BOOM
I never played COD4. when I finally got my xbox, I figured I was going to be so far behind the learning curve that I didn't bother. I wish I had played it though. I liked the campaign of W@W, but I hated the multiplayer for the reason I said above. I didn't know the maps and was playing against people who had already put 100+ hours into the game. Not to mention I'm not that familiar with FPS on consoles. That's one of the reasons i got MW2 over L4D2, I didn't want to fall behind. I recently read that IW is going to get map packs out this spring... That's pretty idiotic. why not strike while the iron is hot and get one out early January? The video games coming out from jan-may are going limit sales and the online community, IMO.
Question: What the hell is the deal with throwing knives? I've played the whole game and I'm working on the Special Ops. The only time I've seen throwing knives is at the end of the main campaign. Also, is there a difficulty setting for this game and does it change the main campaign?
Is it true for PSN? I heard they already patched it, but I still feel like I'm getting sniped by the Models.
today i got wtfpwned by a lame *** with dual shotty's. Couldn't stop the guy. Even the final kill in slow motion everyone in the room collectively yelled "How the hell?" as the guy didnt eve have to put the cross hairs on the target from 25+ away and it single shot killed him. SMH
Those would be the akimbo models, the most broken weapon in the game. They are so powerful and can kill you across a room with no accuracy. It's a like like being sniped really.
so apparently if you use bling on the akimbo 1887s with FMJ they still have the same range. kinda lame i played against people post patch and i thought at first i could tell they were fixed, but then i played a guy obviosly doing this as we were getting picked off from deep.

Epic fail, thanks IW. 1887's still have massive range. Just use bling and use FMJ with Akimbo. Maybe if we're lucky, every other COD will be made by Treyarch.
Idk..since that update I've barely seen anyone use shotguns. And my k/d ratio jumped up .10 Posted via Mobile Device
Treyarch hasn't made a good COD yet. On the other hand IW was behind most of the favorites: both MW's, COD 1(my personal favorite) and 2.
Aside from the 3 grenade perk and martyrdom I find that game, as you said, to be more balanced and have fantastic maps. I also prefer the more limited killstreaks. I'm not hating on MW2, it's a fun game... just seems too "noobish" and everything is overpowered, IMO.
Depends on your play style and what guns you like to use... I think you can get a pretty big boost based off your killstreaks. My favorite setup is Predator missle, Harrier, and then AC130 but if you have trouble getting 5 in a row then its not the setup for you. My biggest problems come from when I sprint too much and when I have the heartbeat and start hunting people down. Oh and find a gun you like and stick with it. Also, its been brought up before in this thread but Stopping Power is a must on anything non-hardcore. Finally, learn to strafe and kill. Too many people stand still and shoot.
I have a 1.05 K/D. Sometimes I will light it up, but most of the time I'm going 15-10ish (my K/D is bad because I sucked for a long time and played a lot, but it was the only way to get better). My best advice is to be a hybrid camper... Run and Gun is not a good strategy. There are to many places to camp in every map. What I do most times is laps around the map. The middle of every map is death. Just a fact. So walk around the map, and hang around high frequency areas. When you get a kill or two, move up the map and hold your ground. Take it nice and slow. Watch the kill cams. You'll see what you did wrong, you'll notice hiding places, and eventually you'll become so familiar with how people play, your K/D will be increase. One mistake I consistently making is reloading at idiotic times. I kill someone and my instinct is to reload. This is terrible strategy and I need to break that habit. Sleight of hand pro is a very solid perk (helps ads faster too) for that reason. Use Stopping power pro. It's a must head to head. Hardline pro is cool too. A 2 kill steak isn't that hard, and UAV's are the most underused KS in the game I think... It helps you and your team. No reason not to run it, IMO. Once you get a UAV, a pred. Missile and harrier are not far behind. You'll rack up kills this way, IMO. Although you're going to lose a head to head 9/10 without Stopping Power Pro. Cold Blooded is a good concept, but it fails for two reasons. Most people use Stopping power, and if you're using CB, you need a silencer for it to be effective. A silencer will lessen damage. So you're giving up quite a bit. It's nice for one reason, defense. So many people use the KS setup of Pred, Harrier, and Chopper Gunner and once that happens, you're ****ed without CBP because you're going to die or you'll need to stay indoors and camp. Which means you're not getting kills and essentially going to rack up a negative K/D for as long as the kill streak is doing work. Ninja pro is the best 3rd perk without question. HBS are denied (although that's not a big issue as HBS aren't that common), but the pro portion makes your foot steps silent. That makes the game much easier, IMO. If you don't have an HD TV, get one... MW2 sucks on SDTV because it's so difficult to spot people far away, and they can see you clearly. Terminal is a great example. If I'm standing at burger town, I can't see far enough to notice anyone at the other end of the hall. So I have to avoid those areas often. That's all I can think of at the moment.
Say what you will, WAW was better than this mess of a game. Neither Treyarch nor IW are anything special, but I'll take Treyarch personally. I did love MW1 though. Either way Battlefield is a better series, but MW2 will do for now. Just bought Operation Flashpoint 2 as well. Love realistic games, and loved the 1st 3 in the series.
I do have trouble getting kill streaks. So I use the care package, and hope I get something solid. I'm level 39. Any suggestions on guns. I do like the M4, but it's pretty weak. UMP45 isn't bad either.
I like that idea. I'll camp out in the next few games, and see how I do. I have the same problem, too. ANother problem I have is when I throw a stun or frag grenade, as I'm releasing the opponent comes and kills me. I like that. Stopping Power. But I'm going to replace UAV with the care package as I find that very useful. Predator Missle owns and Harrier Missle sounds dominant, lol. I don't have an HDTV. I have a crappy 27 inch POS. But, I might get an HDTV soon.
Na, I don't think WAW was better than this game. This game is really good. MW1 was crazy good, too. My favorite game.
Can't go wrong with the SCAR. Small clip compared to other AR's, but it's not too bad if you reload after every kill. SCAR with Silencer and Acog owns.
Not at all. MW2 sucks pretty bad. Biggest campfest I've ever seen in a FPS, and FFA is unplayable because every single game has boosters. Worst balance between weapons I've seen in an FPS. No doubt WAW was better than this game, and MW1 blows this game out the water. Only a couple months though for a real FPS to come out so I'll go back to MW1 in the meantime, which seems like everyone else is doing too.
Right now my K/D is 1.15...I'm trying to get most of the challenges done so I use different guns...but if I start to struggle the M16 is always a good option. Assuming that you are decently accurate, the 3 round burst is deadly. I still enjoy using Cold Blooded Pro, along with a silenced weapon most of the time. I found before when I used stopping power pro, the enemy would be right on me after I shot someone. Also, like mentioned above, there is nothing better when the enemy has a KS like Pred. or any other air support. You can just run around getting kills while the rest of your team has to hide or get cut down. I like to stay with Assault Rifles in the game because of their relatively low recoil and high accuracy. hope this helps.
