*** Official Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Thread ***

No idea whats going on atm, I was the host and it lagged to hell for me, stuttering back and forth, putting whole clips into people for nothing.... but its not lagging for them, only me.

I've noticed quite a few times that whenever I am host I am disadvantaged, if I join another game and not host I will kill people within a few bullets but soon as I'm host I takes half a clip. I have a good internet connection (Virgin 20mbit, always <15ms ping on PC games)

It drives me insane when bullets dont register!
 
I've been playing again tonight with the ACR in various formats and it's the best weapon by far I've used in these games. Even better than the P90 from the last one. I've not come out of the top 2 all night.

Having decent connections helped but 1v1's I was winning 95% of the time.

yeah in BF Bad Companys they left out prone, dead annoying. you can crouch but thats it.

IMO lack of prone in bad company is great, prone is annoying as hell in MW2 and adds nothing to the gameplay except better camping and people going prone in the middle of a firefight.

It's great in bad company trying to find some good cover and using it, rather than just going prone.

In other news: I'm enjoying search and destroy at the moment, like good old CS. If anyone fancies playing some S&D in a team add me up.

They best fix this damn game pretty soon, starting to hate it.

Try and play any of the game types and more than half the other team won't be trying to play it properly, just going for the cheap kills/kill streaks. Boring as hell.

All they need to do to fix it is BETTER reward the people playing the game type properly - 1000 points for flag/hq capture whatever. Undermine those that aren't playing the game type as it is intended. Or disable killstreaks in gametypes or limit them them in some way. When a game type ISN'T about winning via number of kills then then they shouldn't be rewarded as such.

Didn't get bored of CoD 4 as quickly as I am this one.

Might have to stick to DM/TDM/FFA for any kind of fun/fair experience.

Just stopping k/d counting towards your overall k/d in non-deathmatch games would stop a lot of that.

One of my friends said the other day that she had only one bar for connection yet she ended the game at the top of board with 28 kills.Very strange that you can get more kills from having a rubbish connection to a game:confused:
 
K/D actually ruins the game for me :p I have above 2.0 KD and I feel like I can never try any fun or quirky tactics incase it lowers my KD. I also feel so angry when I die because of it.

Fair enough you can just say "ignore it then" but then you look like a noob if someone looks at your scores :p
 
caring about K/D ratio turns people into campers,makes people less bothered about the objectives and care more about hiding and killing people.This is when your team looses the game but your ok because you got loads of kills,and your team got slaughtered

This. I couldn't give two hoots what my K/D ratio is as long as I'm having fun (which generally involves not playing like some sort of gun-wielding hermit crab).
 
Thoes Ranger dual guns are mental! The ammount of times i've been owned just with one kills is nuts :P saying that i just faf about on FFA :) trying to get all unlocks for every gun.. sad :D

Agree totally, I said excatly the same stuff earlier. When I played as I did in Cod 4 I was 0.5 k/d ratio. I captured a lot of flags and points. I ended up getting hammered by kill streaks. Yet members of my team where 30-5 yet hadn't gone near a capture point.

Its changed my game. I camp the arse out of it. I have spots I goto every time. Find my spot, claymore, 4 kills, Predator, 6 kills harrier, 8 kills pav low. Run out of ammo. Get killed eventually by the nobbler that keeps coming back to find me. Rinse and repeat. 30-5, next game. Now recovered my kill deaths to 1.08 and rising.

I've had no choice or just spend the game getting rinsed by air units.

As you say 2000 points per capture point and 2000 xp per air unit rocketed.

Its so OTT but your only choice is to join them :(

It needs removing agreed, wins should be all that counts, they won't remove it though.


That said I really enjoy FFA. Its my fav game type now along with team death camp. 174 accolades for spending the most time in one spot says it all :)

Saw quite a lot of the Javelin glitch tonight, drove me ****ing mad. Hope it doesn't get to the point where joining a new game won't get you away from it before they fix it.

Someone on our team was doing this last night on HC search. He found it hilarous despite having to die to only take one person out.

While IW works on getting the MW2 glitch fixed, people we catch using it will recieve suspensions from LIVE. Play fair everyone. :>

Is this threat of XBL suspension for javelin glitching an empty threat? How exactly are they going to catch people doing it? Would love to see that though :D

The range is short, but they make for some memorable last stand kills when your down behind a concrete barrier and someone runs up for an easy kill. :p
