i recently bought modern warfare 2 after being constantly nagged by my friends to do so. It was the first COD game i played and to be honest i just never got into it. I mean the story mode is decent but imo the game is just so repetitive not to mention overrated. I mean whats all the fuss about, the game is far from anything special, am i missing something here? I think il just stick to Fifa and fight night in future

Are you talking about the online play ? Or single player only ?

The campaign has some great highlight levels, No Russian, The Gulag, Contingency, none of them come close to Ghillies in the Mist from COD4 though. As for being repetitive, well its a game where you shoot people, hopefully before they shoot you, what were you expecting? a dance mat minigame?:pac:

3 of us came into a Domination game in Skidrow late on, 5 on our team and 3 on theirs. They were losing badly and it was laggy and just as it was ending some ****er on the opposition side calls in a nuke. The host, who was on the nuke dude's team, flicked his XBox off so we lagged out.
Elkatso suggested boosting may have been involved and sure enough within a few minutes of the next round on Rundown, there was one of our guys hiding out near the petrol station and an opposition guy coming along with a tac insertion. Killed the boostee and followed my guy around for a bit where he lost interest and went on to play the game as normal.
Only the second time I've seen/heard of boosting occurring in Domination.

His mate on the other team was so bad though that he actually ended up with a score like he was boosting. Think he was 5-28 or something. You may remember Cereals "I think [Gamertag] is actually just really bad". Lol

Seen that before on tdm...one lad had 19-1 and another lad had 1-15 and I thought these feckers are boosting.The other lad just kept going back for revenge kills and ended up having his arse hansded to him...Must of been drunk or something.He was just a sh1te player:)

Played for the firs ttime in about a week last night. Dear God I was awful, think the best I did in about 6 games was 14-11.

Not a good night.

WTF is going on with MW2 nowadays, I can't find a game without some scumbag using aimbot or wallhack, I love the game but these scumbags ruin it for everyone. :mad::mad::mad:

+1, was playing against two guys yesterday who could knife across the map! Needless to say I hammered them and then I got an invite from them to boost :rolleyes:

FYP
I'd imagine I'd spend a good 90% of my spare time on BO when it comes out.

Playing Ground war and two people were boosting. Same Clan tags and 'synchronised' names. What pissed me off is that not only did nobody else on my team try to stop them (it's fairly simple, all you have to do is look at the map and see which one of your teammates is disappearing) but no one tried to shoot down air support.

Then they left and in the next game, some idiot boxed me into a corner so I couldn't move resulting in both of us getting killed.

And now for the next part. I hope that there aren't any death streaks in Black Ops and if there are that they're not as powerful. I mean who thought it was a good idea to give someone something that lets them take three sniper bullets with stopping power?

Anyway, I've gotten bored of MW2 lately but this has kind of pushed me over the edge. I'll probably just end up waiting for New Vegas and then Black Ops.

played MW2 for 1st time in months there over the weekend..

I know I would be bad at it but my god... I really suck!!

This was mainly due to the fact that I had spent all the months previous playing battlefield BC2.. Man trying to shift back was really tough! took me hours to get back into it!



But playing MW2 has made me remember how angry it makes me!! Fecking cheating boosters really bugs me.. Make it my mission to follow them and destroy their little party!

Is there anyway of reporting them or some ****??? I'm pretty sure its useless but I'd like to know if there is a place you can name and shame them!!

Yeah. So much. I like it for TDM sometimes, but it's a pain for Dom. Just too big.

Also, I was playing Search the other day. A team of 4 of us were in a party. We ran up against another lobby with 8 guys in it. But from the talk of them before the game, it sounded like two of them got stuck on our team instead of with their mates. So anyway, first game I took the bomb, and planted successfully on B. Second game, they spawned closest to the bomb and picked it up. But they had on riot shields. Not expecting anything at this stage, I decided to follow the bomb carrier to support him. Anyway, long story short, they were carrying riotshields and trapped me in a room with two doors. I just stood there not able to get out. Eventually one of them moved by accident and I escaped but there was about 15 seconds left of the round so we lost it due to not planting. 3rd round started and again they were closest to the bomb. They picked it up and went off to hide in a corner with it again.

I jumped out of the lobby with the other guys. What's the point. If you don't want to play against your mates, simply leave the game. :rolleyes:

hypermuse

I just dont get the logic of some of these people!!

I mean whats the harm!! its a game!! your supposed to have fun shooting ppl!!

I can live with noobtubes, I can live with supersonic "stab from half way across the map Bolx" I can live with people running around with interventions just quick scoping all the time..

But the boosting and autoaim ****e really bugs me!!

Playing Favela, run into the barber-shop, kill a dude and 2 seconds later I'm tubed. Watched the kill cam, cue me appearing, shotgunning the guy in the barber shop, him respawning just below the banana-plant roof, putting his launcher on and firing across and killing me. :mad:

Has the SPAS been nerfed recently? rarely ever get one hit kills with it anymore, and not just at a distance, I'm talking 5 feet away, I ran past a guy sniping the other night and blasted him, was already running away when I only noticed i got a hit marker, he didnt have last stand on just shot me as I was running. its happened a few times too and I havent been on yellow bars or anything

I wouldnt trust the connection bar icon as far as you could throw it tbh, if you notice at the very start of a match the host has "full" signal as opposed to most others then it jumps up for the rest? Thats the hosts protocol artificially leveling out pings and it does a piss poor job most nights. You might seem like you have "full" bars but in actuall fact you might only have 2 per say.

Its really noticable on some weapons, mostly ones that arent full auto cause you can see the effect per bullet as it were. The spas has been very hit and miss for me power and range wise, same with the fal. Can dominate with it one night where one burst kills every time but the next it takes two even three! Way to check is to enter a split screen match and test. You'll see its the same. If the values of a weapon change .ie. nerferd its changed accross online and offline modes, testing in offline MP highlights the only variable left which is connection.

Same with the sniper rifles, i prefer having cold blooded pro instead of stopping power on my sniper class as I only ever really use it on fuel, derail and rundown and its handy not having the name appear, but christ unless you aim for headshots constantly its never a one hit one kill, but then some fcuker quickscopes me, hits nowhere near me and puts me down, its infuriating how inaccurate the hit boxes are at times.

It's infuriating. Yesterday I fired three shots from the Intervention. Perfectly aimed in each case, yet no hits recorded. Ran into a building with the Spas, shot opponent at close range, once again no damage done, but I was knifed.

I'm a casual player with about an hour to play MW2 per day. It's bad enough being up against people who spend far more time on the game than I ever could, but to go without being rewarded for well-aimed shots is ridiculous.

I am not very familiar with the match-making system, but would it be too much to ask to be pitted against people of similar playing experience?

And it would have been so easy do seeing as it loggs your amount of time, rank and kills but the have it set to prefer connection over experience. It finds the best mean average game to put you into so sometimes your damage / range is the best mean average in the lobby and you can dominate completely cause your reaction is a fraction quicker and weapons are more powerful (in reality they register hits quicker but it gives the effect of being more powerful) where as sometimes you can be the lower average connection in which case it seems like you have to paint them with rounds to get a kill.

If it preferred experience over connection though the effect would be a lot worse. I hate halo with a passion, imo its a 3rd rate game for a 1st rate IP but one thing i will say after buying reach to play online is their matchmaking system is top notch. Its skill vs skill not connection vs connection.

Halo gets matchmaking so right when MW2 gets it so wrong, on Halo 3 you're playing against people a few levels above or below you, whereas the very first game I ever played online on MW2 I was in against prestige players and guys in the 50s and 60s level wise, ludicrous learning curve for new players.

Very very true, if they had it set ranks wise also it would stop a lot of the kids boosting and buying their way to rank 70 10th pres simply cause for the few that get there legit would be their main stable of opponents and wipe the floor with them consistently.

The games been out long enough now where theres plenty of legit 10th prestige players but you rarely ever see someone with a 10th prestige symbol getting massive scores, I've played against plenty and annihilated them as they boosted their way there so have the actual playing skill of a newbie.
I prestiged last night and the first few games i was the highest ranked person in them, how is someone in lvl15 or so meant to compete against someone who knows nade spots, sniping postions and the most well used routes on all the maps? i feel sorry for people only getting into the game now, although i got into it months after it came out so was kinda in the same position, least with Black Ops i'll be in on the ground level
