Even playing HC the laggy <word> using knife and running perks are hard to hit with dead on shots before they knife you...

If you play with serveral friends at once, IW Net will 9/10 use one of your team to host. Also with Hardcore you can cut the runners down pretty quick. The 1887's are not used that much TBH.

Its not the host thats the problem - but the compound problem of the P2P style "netcode" which delays everything, people realising you can warp short distances almost unhittable before the netcode catches up if you lag out and exploiting it to close the distance on you and knife you before that burst of fire that was 100% on target on them registers as having hit them.
 
The bullet registery is actually very good... the problem is its delayed quite badly to the client due to the nature of the P2P system and warping players can get an advantage... which I notice a good few people exploiting to get knife kills that would otherwise be impossible... on LAN or even a good dedicated server you'd have cut them down before they got within 6 feet of you.
 
Gotta love joining an getting the last spot outside of the 2 clans an just mashing everyone :)

I am however seriously annoyed at how many people use m203, whats the point :/ most peoples KD ratios reflect the 2 m203's they carry, then die. sadface.
 
Fact is you are dead most of the time before you even fire - unless its the host thats doign the knifing then its so messed up its comical. commando face stabs anyone??

How many Kill cams have you watched where your not even firing back - but on your screen it seems liek you exchanged a couple of bursts of fire at each other..

TBH i dont play now unless either I or a mate(s) im playing with are hosting. At least im sure of a decent game this way.

And when i host its like stealing candy from a baby.
 
i doubt it - who cares tbh its so easy to get to 70 - its not like rank hacking even makes you good . i just won 30-4 at lvl 4 - didnt have anything but a famas...

I understand the disadvantages of the P2P system. All i'm saying is that playing hardcore with a UK host makes the game allot better.

Like the lag? The bullet reg? etc :p

Agreed, but playing in parties helps when the host has a solid UK connection. If i'm playing by myself and I join a laggy game I just leave.
 
another glitch is doing the rounds. They equip Care package and use marathon along with lightweight. They then run mega fast (atleast double normal lightweight speed) and just knife everyone. Its next to impossible to stop them due to the crappy lag compensation/p2p servers.
 
superb setup! cheers, very good on some maps!

I've found it especially good on rundown. Half the walls are corrugated iron and the other half are thin brick, you can shoot through them like they aren't there. You only thing you can't shoot through on that map are the sandbags and there's hardly any!

but you shouldnt have to do any of that

what a joke IWnet is lmao

Thats pretty much always been a problem with cod games, even in cod1 theres occasions ive fired the panzerfaust and died yet on the killcam ive not fired anything. Totally retarded.

Yeh ive noticed this and its frustrating as hell.

i carry a thumper on the smaller maps, i use it to clear rooms and snipers, i have my rifle in my hands 90% of the time but the thumper is a god send. I get a lot of flack for using it but when im on the top of the server with a k/d of something like 39-8 it just flys over my head. i do know what you mean though someone running around tubing every one and hes on 12-10 lol you have to laugh.

The thing i find funny about the thumper is it seems fewer people regard it as a "noob" weapon despite it being the same thing as the 203 albeit a standalone weapon, not an underslung weapon.
