Am seriously thinking about trading blops and mw2 in for the xbox versions, it pains me to have to start from scratch perk and emblem wise on xbox again but hell, it could be fun

Guess you never heard of Jtags then?

J-tagged consoles can be detected and banned though.

PS3 is permanently hacked now.

Is that not a PS3 issue as much as an IW issue?

+1 for the Xbox. :cool:

Not really, the Xbox has always been open for hackers, the difference now is not that the Xbox users can be banned, but that IW had security measures in place for the xbox because they were expecting it to be hacked, they would release updates and patch out any holes taht hackers were exploiting.. They never had those security measures in place for the PS3 because it was at the time a secure console.. now they're basically saying... **** it we cant be arsed and are using this PS3 Jailbreak as an excuse so they dont have to spend money on it. That is why black ops is not over run with hackers on the PS3 because treyarch built in their own security and are actively updating the game.

Its not really a problem for me because i had no intention of playing MW2 again anyway but im sure there are still alot of people buying the actual game... with there being no disclaimer on the games being sold i'd be suprised if they wont get into some sort of legal trouble over this.

So yeah... its not really +1 for the xbox since the xbox has always been a shambles when it came to security. More like -1 for PS3.

Yes, really.
Permanent hack v a couple of knob-jockeys who get banned. Hmm.

You missed my point(About it being sonys fault), the only reason that the xbox isnt overrun with hackers is because IW patched the xbox numerious times and built in security features on the XBOX version of the game which they couldnt be arsed doing on the PS3 (ie... cutting corners)..... All it means is that future PS3 games will require the same amount of security as the Xbox ones. And unfortunately IW dont care enough about the PS3 versions of the games to pay for patches on older games.

You could look at it another way... +1 for ps3 owners who are not only getting far more superior exclusives in 2011.. but if they want they can get them for free !Woooo !

Delayed post. **** off Firing Range.

That is all.

krudler · 21-01-2011 10:47PM

ugh, just got a chopper gunner on that Hanoi domination towards the end and couldnt call it in cos the attack helicopter was up , ffs

O-Deazy · 21-01-2011 10:52PM

was playing domination on the worst team I was ever and a terrible host so i rage quit of course! After going back into domination 2 mins later I was put back in the same game just in time to see my team loose again! 2 defeats from 1 game! :mad:

Nuri Sahin · 23-01-2011 12:43AM

Me as host lasts 0.232 of a second.

Leeg17 · 23-01-2011 12:59AM

You think you have it bad, I last the full game usually :pac:

Nuri Sahin · 23-01-2011 01:01AM

0 kills with a rolling thunder on Ground War, playing on Villa.

edit - next game B52 called in and game ends immediately ugh.

If anyone doesn't get why I don't use high killstreaks anymore unlike in the beginning well that above is a huge reason. 0 luck and usually shot down within seconds. Everyone I play with meanwhile...

Very annoying.

You haven't played with me as host so..

hypermuse · 23-01-2011 03:31PM

GRRRR

PLayed for 1st time all weekend today and game has frozen twice mid-game!!

Both on domination, 1 when I was planting a bomb and the 2nd time happened just after I had planted a bomb and we were defending easily!!

FML!!!!

tonsiltickler · 23-01-2011 03:57PM

Traded in black ops for MW2 yesterday, soooo glad I did. Don't get me wrong FFA is completely broken with quikscopers, theres still noobtubers etc...

Its much more fast paced, twitchy and fun. The maps and guns are much better. The whole COD series has gone downhill though. Its only gonna get worse imo. Unfortunately i dont think i'll ever buy another COD game.

The initial high that was COD4 will never be matched. Hope people are still playing it 5 years from now.

hypermuse · 23-01-2011 04:27PM

3rd time its frozen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.....

Shy_Dave! · 23-01-2011 04:31PM

I never usually complain about overpowered setups etc... but the ak74 is getting ridiculous now.

Hurricane-Dean · 23-01-2011 04:48PM

Haven't played online in a couple of weeks, just been playing nazi zombies with friends in split screen or LAN, way better than MP online and more fun!

so people now think that quickscoping is the main thing wrong with MW2 :eek: not one person complained about it until Treyarch had their say. It's the only thing that requires any real skill in that game and while it was easier than the 2 preceding games to do it was still much harder than rushing with an AR or the UMP (the actually biggest thing wrong with that game, along with hacked lobbies, explosives and commando) God I despise that game now :mad:

krudler · 23-01-2011 05:47PM

christ the hit detection in this game is appalling, I'm uploading a clip of me sniping now, its in my fileshare if anyone wants a look, domination on WMD, 26 sec clip, i'm getting one hit kills shooting nowhere near guys and not getting anything aiming square at them

Nuri Sahin · 23-01-2011 06:29PM

In theater you have to factor in the brief lag.

Personally, I'm finding the snipers fine now. It's in between COD4 and MW2 in difficulty. Had a 30-3 game with 20 odd sniper kills on Hanoi a few days ago. Pretty much every single shot was on the button at where I aimed and a 1 shot kill too.

Once I hit that final prestige I'll be back sniping more regularly:)

Everyone I knew complained non-stop about quickscopers, and all are delighted it was removed from BO.

As you eluded to, any numpty could quickscope on MW2. That little bit of skill it took in COD4 was gone with the class set up - Sleight of Hand, Stopping Power and Steady Aim(?). That's not to say it got to me or anything like some of the people here.

I liked the fact I was one of few who could quickscope or more so drag scope successfully and more importantly consistently in COD4.

Dues Bellator · 23-01-2011 07:46PM

Quick scoping put me off using sniper rifles full stop:mad:

Im sorry ade.. but theres a difference between being able to quickscope (And miss 90% of the time, which most people did) and being good at it, really bugs me when people say **** like "Quickscoping was sooo easy in MW2" as if to say any random noob could pick up a sniper and within a day they'd be dominating lobbies like they're zirgrizz or that they themselves could pick up a sniper, run around quickscoping and do better than they'd normally do with a UMP or AR.

Its obviously not something that could be considered overpowered, since snipers in blops are just as good as they were in MW2 imo.

how? It doesn't make a difference to the other guy what gun you're using

I wouldn't have gotten half the playtime in MW2 if it wasn't for snipers tbh, they were much more challenging than any other type of guns by far and it would be just rubbish running around with ARs and SMGs every game, even though they were ridiculously overpowered in that game.

GEasy · 23-01-2011 08:57PM

I remember a certain private SnD game in mw2 where it was quickscopes only . Needless to say not everyone was on the same level . :pac:

Going up against an ACR or SCAR with an intervention was anything but unskillfull imo. Disregarding maps like wasteland that is
