Woah jumped into a ground war domination on rust. Spawn... die... spawn... die. That map is far too small for that many people.
That's a bug, Rust isn't in the normal map rotation for ground war. Should be fixed in the upcoming patch.
So close to selling this on, 90% of my deaths are to dual 1887's, commando knife kills and noob tubes. I used cold-blooded in almost every class just to avoid the kill streak rewards which are IMO v overpowered.
I don't see how some of these balance issues weren't picked up during testing, it's like they asked a bunch of 14-year olds what they'd like and stuffed it all in without thinking about how it would affect the game.
Personally I'd rather have COD4's weapon/perk/streak set, shame they can't have that as an option somewhere.
i wish it would hurry up aswell and stop those noobs running around with dual 1887's
Agreed, its just as annoying having team mates using them as it is having the other team relying on them..
Do you never get the killstreaks yourself? Sure they are annoying but they are pretty easy to take down and are great when you get them yourself.
I don't get why people whinge about them, it not like it's not possible to get them yourself! Nothing better than getting a chopper gunner against a team of sniper then just wasting them. I was 0-3 in a game of mec TDM on Wasteland earlier before digging in. Game finished with us winning and me ending 34-3, chopper gunner is insane on that map and no one even tried shooting it down.

Only way to beat them up close is to use them yourself. I wish they would hurry up and be patched, but as long as they are overpowered I will continue to use them
They don't need balancing that much just cut the range down by 50-65% and leave the damage as it is, but because they were so over powered to begin with they will now probably make them next to useless.
Just because you can get them yourself doesn't mean they're not overpowered... Either way I think maybe what he's getting at is that it can be annoying sometimes, I seem to be the predator whipping boy in most matches and it's annoying when I've got a good streak going and a predator missile gets me.
Just playing devil's advocate... I think the game is pretty great apart from the 1887s, even when I was using them I could see how unfair it was to other people... Either way the only real problem with the game is latency for me.
Does anyone know if the pave low not counting to killstreak is a glitch or intended, or again any list of what counts and what doesn't. Someone said earlier in the thread that it's to do with being automated, but that means the harrier is OP because the second phase of the harrier is automated but still counts to the KS.
And IDK Alrik I have a feeling they'll be better than rangers still.
They will probably have similar range and power, but the 1887's will have more ammo I reckon.
And they are my nephew says they're still powerful after the PS3 patch and what is it with these twitter 'GTA IV internet shops' I keep getting requests to follow me when I only set an account up to keep up to date with patches etc.
Agreed, I don't see why so many people are whinging about the killstreak rewards, They are easy to take down and counter against.
For example if I'm killed by air support I have a separate class for taking these down: i.e. harriers, helis, ac130s, chopper gunners etc.
So in most cases it costs me 1 death and saves the rest of my teammates deaths.
There's no excuse for not fighting back against them tbh and makes me laugh when the opposing team does nothing and takes a hammering.
Except for Afghan against AC130's if you're unfortunate to be spawned outside 3 times in a row with a bunch of non cold blooded team mates around you. I really don't know what you can do there. Maybe a blast & riot shield/Stinger combo

meant to be 200 unless you get caught up in a private match
hmmm, quiet odd. i was in a match just now and i took notice that we got up too 500 and the bar which tells you how close you are to winnning was around 1/5 done. i managed to take pics of the scoreboard
I get plenty of killstreaks (I have a k/d ratio of 2.93) but that doesn't stop them being unbalanced and that wasn't really what I was complaining about.
It was more that there isn't much variety to how I seem to die. In COD4, people were using pretty much every weapon and whilst some were more popular, I died to a pretty good spread of weapons. In MW2 90% of my deaths are from dual 1887s, noob tubes (generally by someone with scavenger equipped) and warping commando knife kills.

The most frustrating thing about trying to copy that method is 9/10 the first juggernaut will spawn between you and that first red and white fuselage you turn right through. I've got to the laptop twice, but a swarm seems to close in on me.
I can't see myself ever managing it on veteran solo, but lower difficulty's with two players, close, following the same route shows it's possible.
Edit: I've been doing it solo on regular to figure it out. I notice that the intel spawn location is vital too, in the video he triggers a bunch of enemies by coming through on the right then crosses over to the left to pick up the intel. I think that just buys enough time.

Is it just me or are more people than usual using the 1887s? Just seems like in the past few days everyone is using them, are they getting the most out of them while they can?
And lol now I've prestiged I keep getting mullered by 1887s NERF NERF NERF
Oh and I'm sick of trying to knife people with commando, I **** you not earlier I was facing directly at an enemy pressed knife and died, on his killcam I did the action of lunging to knife but I lunged away from him... How can the server think that's right?!
