I haven't gotten around to getting the Resurgence pack yet, but the game is pissing me off big time lately so I'll give it a miss for awhile and probably get the Alan Wake DLC later in the month so I'll have something else to play.

The match making in this game is ridiculous. The only people I get matched up with are people who have the Stimulus pack and with people who are on a losing team with a minute to go. And what have they done to the map rotation? I'm always playing on Bailout but never Crash, and I hardly ever play on the normal maps. It seems like I'm either playing on Bailout or Estate. I don't think I've played on Scrapyard in about 2 weeks and every second map is Bailout :mad:

goes through periods of this, i'd say a good 90% of the time Bailout is the first map that shows up, I like it though so its not too bad, Terminal rarely ever comes up for me though and thats my favourite map

The map rotation overall doesn't bother me much, as still get to play most of the maps. (There are a lot now, so instances of one map is getting rarer).

But what bugs me is when you vote to skip a map, and it goes back to the map you just played in the last game. I mean, surely they can program that to not happen???:rolleyes:

What should be an option is a map playlist, say you pick that you only want games on Wasteland, Terminal, Crash and a few others, and it only looks for those, theres always some game type on every map so it cant be that hard to throw you into one.

I hate being chucked into a game where its almost over or your team is getting hammered, quitting then being thrown back into the same game. a few times I got thrown into a match where the first thing I heard was "enemy nuke incoming!"

although I did chuckle the time i got lobbed into a TDM game on Terminal, ran about 5 feet, shot a guy and it was the game winning kill

I think I'd prefer the ability to skip maps you don't like. Otherwise people would only pick the maps they love and know the best, more than likely getting more kills and more exp than in other maps. Say you get to pick 2 maps you don't like when you first join, then every prestige (idk up to 3) you can pick 1 extra map you never want to play in. I know mine would be Quarry, Estate and Scrapyard.

Scrapyard I dont mind, except on Domination as taking A is a complete pain in the hole. Quarry I dont like either, camping central and trudging back up that frigging hill when you spawn is a pain. Estate is meh, either everyone camps in the house and you wind up spawning down by the power station, without lightweight its a pain in the arse getting around that map.

My most hated would be Derail (too big!) Estate, Overgrown on Domination,dont mind it on TDM. I used to despise Salvage but its really grown on me recently.

On that A flag in Scrapyard, there's a (kinda secret) spot to cap that flag that doesn't leave you exposed to any fire (including Noob Tubes I think) except from inside the office.

When you're looking at the flag from the office, you can lie down behind the wall with your face right up against the barrell and cap it from there.

Makes it much easier to cap that way. If you didn't know about it, sure now you do! Similar to the spot on Favela B flag.

I actually really like Derail. It's a great map for run&gun as there is so much cover etc. It's the map that always gets me Marathon & Lightweight pro. I've even been known to just go on a jog around the outskirts of the map at times.

krudler

The main gripe I have with Derail is for the size of it, 3/4 of the map is never used, everyone just runs for that main building in the centre and sets claymores, if you're in there you're being tubed out of it or sniped from the rooftops, if you're outside the other team will hole up and you spend all your time lobbing grenades in there or getting into CQC battles on the stairs, I've rarely ever seen a firefight going on in the small town at the back, unless its on domination as A is there.

Leeg17

omg, how come I never have nuke on -.-
Had pred/harrier/chopper in overgrown. M21 ebr silenced. they had a care package and I was picking them off as they ran to it. got pred but killed nobody. kept going and got harriers. then got chopper. 27-0. If I had nuke on I probably woulda got it. seeing as I didn't kill anyone with pred anyways

f*ck :mad:

Yeah, because that building is so popular, I tend to focus on the area around it and pick people off as they go back in there time after time. I would say I've my best k:d ratio on that map in TDM, and I quite like it for Domination as the flags are in decent spots.

I've gotten to Level 70 yesterday on this prestige. I might just try it tonight to see how I get on before I hit that P button again, or else unlock Harrier/AC130/Nuke (then Chopper) as my first killstreaks on the next loop around, and actually really try for it. Never bothered other than in about 10 games.

GavRedKing

I'm not actually sure. It's either P3 or P4, but my gut tells me P3 only. I've only 7 custom classes. I'll go have a look at the prestige icons and figure it out that way...

The bog standard grenadier class is awesome, Famas and silenced SPAS with scavenger and stopping power? can wreck your way around a map with that setup. I've decided depending on what day I prestige again, am at lvl 46 on my 3rd, I'm gonna got for the 1000 SPAS kills in one day, colour me mental :pac:

I figure I manage 15-20 kills per match on a good game and I can do it, some weekend day where theres nothing goin on and I have no reason to leave the house, I might record my progress too

Not pressing the p button any more , ive actually gone round 13 times between the 2 accounts legitamatly.

Yep, it's only 3rd one. :( This is my icon, so I'll be going to 4th soon.



So I'll be P4 by tomorrow, which should be around the 11days of gametime. Is that good bad or indifferent?

Hate the 3rd icon >< Can't wait to hit 4th.

I waited too long to go from lvl 70 to 1st prestige, think I was there about 3-4 weeks before I went round the horn again, didnt want to love my beloved cold blooded pro, luckily coldblooded+2 stingers vs pavelow+ lacing spinning pavelow with RPD rounds = CB pro

Yeah, I busted my balls getting Cold Blooded Pro on my main account, when I was suspended and I made a new temp account I got CB Pro by accident by shooting at spinning chopper, when I saw like 3 of the challenges pop I kept shooting

I got to level 44 in less than a week on my temp account, now I've gotten so fed up with campers, quitters and people drop shotting I've played it so little, I've gone up like 2 levels in the past week and a half.

That's exactly what I'm doing, but I already have CB pro, I think 86/100, but want 250 for the emblem.

(21-0 on Invasion .. Today's off to a good start haha)

Yeah I'm playing on a real old 20" SDTV. It's awful xD

older lads with IRA as their name why???? then they go on the defensive when someone slags them:rolleyes:

... being paired with retards who go to same spot to be killed by the same person over and over and over again as well as never helping me shoot down air support.

Went 34-10 despite being spawn trapped at bomb plant upstairs in Terminal, 2nd on my team was 11-17! :rolleyes:

Leeg17

What's the point in having on Cold Blooded Pro, if when your teamates die they spawn around you, leaving a lovely cluster of red boxes around you to the enemy Predator / Chopper Gunner / Ac130 and you die more than you probably would @:

Finical

Probably has been said before, but playing domination or any objective game by yourself and always being put on a team of tards who generally just go solo or camp or try quick scopes/no scopes. Well anything but go for the flags, ffs my win ratio is so low because of them. :mad: Must play in a party more!!! Just need more friends first.
