    I love going 1 on 1 with snipers, weaving up to them as they frantically try to quickscope you then burying a throwing knife in their face as they try to go for their secondary, or even better when someone tries to 360 you. dropshot, take aim, bye bye.

    It is indeed satisfying to get the drop on a sniper, especially a smug one.

    awk... nothing wrong with having a debate, thats what forums are for right ? Made my day in college seem not so long, especially when i know im right ! MUAHAHAAH

    Yeah debating's cool and I've enjoyed what I've read, just a friendly note to remind everyone not to let it get too heated because someone will eventually wind the other person up too much and then I'll have to ban someone :( Hate doing that!

    Or spotting a sniper on the far side of the map and head shotting him with a heavy machine gun!

    It's just a light hearted debate, we're both mostly in agreement in how slight of hand not effecting snipers will remove most of the problem, but I just want to remove it totally were as Magill just it made harder to achieve, plus I'm enjoying the debate!

    Snipers are useless at short range in cs ? in halo ? in unreal ? TF ? in cod4 ? Your having a laugh right ?

    For the above games, CS is how old? Halo is a totally different style of game play, TF is pure Lols and in COD4 I barely saw a fraction of what you get in MW2.

    Though sorry for the confusion but i put quick scoping/no scoping down as the same thing.

    cs is... 11 years old ? ish... doesnt change the fact that it is pretty much the daddy of all online fps games and still has the biggest competitive scene out of pretty much every game played today. Ask yourself this... for a game to last so long, surely it must have done some **** right ? It is almost completely balanced, by far the most balanced shooter out there. Oh and your joking about cod4 right ? :D It was slightly harder to quickscope (sniping was better tho because damage was higher, like it should be in Blops).

    The rest of the games i mentioned are the only other big fps shooters i know, besides bc2, but i dont really know how snipers work in that. I was simply lol'ing at your statement that you cant quickscope in any other shooter, which games were you talking about ?

    Quickscoping and no scoping are not the same thing, noscoping has no accuracy, therefore it is complete luck. Quickscoping is zooming in till your scope is just about to be visible and then shooting, thus making it accurate and therefore requiring skill to pull off consistantly.

    edit. BTW, when you said TF is lol's, im guessing you were refering to its unrealistic style ? and not the actually game ? :D

    Ah, well in COD4 I didn't notice it as much, but that's only my experience.

    I wasn't trying to claim that CS was a bad game sorry, just I thought that comparing a feature in it to a game ten years later isn't the best of examples.

    As for for TF, yup! Again i'm not slating the game, just trying to say the unrealistic style means you can really relate it to MW2.

    I know the difference, but i usually just rate them as the same, but ok, from now on i'll call it quick scoping! :)

    All in all, I really don't care. I'll still have my fun in the game and you have your way of getting yours. It's a feature that doesn't bother me to the extent of considering it a major Game flaw. If it was about Grenade launchers or Rocket launchers, that's a totally different ball game :D

    Now bring on Black Ops!

    Idd, MW2 is boring me now.

    None imo, as long as it's limited to 1 per life, which it is :D

    I dont particularly like them, i think they are a campers dream tbh. I know some some genuine players use them but I dont see the point of them if you can run right through them and not die. I think the cod would be better off without them


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    I love sticking them in the most unobvious places, like out in the open, you'd be amazed how many people run over them where they're in plain sight :D

    The narrow walkway from the gun turret to A flag in Afgan, place it in the bushes pointing away from the flag for a few easy kills. Heck, anywhere in Afghan is good :D

    When Ade joined a match in Trailer Park aages ago, every time I turned a corner, BOOM yet another claymore kill.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,219 ✭✭✭Lab_Mouse


    Love catching people out with them--ha there's always a claymore there so I will go this way instead...click boom..fffffffuuuuu! :)

    cant really give out oif only one a life.

    In fairness I do love spamming them.Sorry:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,127 ✭✭✭✭Leeg17


    Reading about the claymore spamming. Few boardsies and I were playing Sabotage in Karachi yesterday. I think we had harriers out, and the noob enemy team didn't bother shooting it down, and instead opted to stay inside. I had Sitrep on (59/120 at that time). Harrier left and we called another in, and they again stayed inside the house with the stairs, balcony and windows which you can jump down into from above (near B). Must have gotten a good 20 equipment kills when they kept spamming the entrances with claymores. I ran back and forth just popping them off :D

    Wish i had a jtagged xbox now, the beta is playable on them :( id expect plenty of footage to be leaked


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,009 ✭✭✭Shammy


    Would be nice alright. But expect a ban after about 4 hours

    Banning a jtag lol , next keygen....thankyou


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,009 ✭✭✭Shammy


    Would work out pritty expensive tho for KV's

    Depends on who you know really, also there are a couple of people who are unbannable on their jtags , obviously their not talking about how they are avoiding the ban.
