    I think I speak for Shammy when I say "Sarcasm is lost on you boy".
    I knew he was being sarcastic, hence the smilie.

    El Loco asked me a question and I duly answered.

    Kd is 1.48 and I don't really pay attention to my w/l, think it's around 1.

    I pretty much double your stats and I try to shoot down anything that moves so long as I have the class set up and will take my life in objective gameplay if necessary in most circumstances.

    Oh and the only real exception is when the Tuam Vanilla Pod Tramp is about. In that case, hide yo UAV's and hide yo air support!

    Something similar happened to me there last nite.. dunno how to describe it at all thou..

    Was playin on WMD, Some lad fired at me and killed me.

    I respawned very fast and as I respawned I got a hit which came from the same direction that the guy had just previously killed me..

    He was still firing his gun because after he killed me he was obviously firing at some1 else. but even thou I had respawned on the other side of the map he was still hitting me!!

    only happened once and for a split second and thought nothing of it. Funny at the time but if people get wind of this then we are ****ed for a few weeks!!

    I reckon Treyarch will be onto it fairly quick. They're quite good at this sort of patching.

    Not the big BROKEN PS3 VERSION patching. :rolleyes:

    Horses for courses mate. I'm just not a fan of how easy it is to shoot down air support in this game.

    I was watching one of wingsofredemption's videos the other night saying that treyarc threatened to pull the plug on the free psn before the patch came out..

    Wouldnt it have been easier in saying that rather than , people who shoot down air are bad players ?
    Its not hard to get any of the killstreaks , if your opposition are shooting down air then switch your killstreaks.

    Ya heard that too. It was just some quote taken out of context saying that it was always a possiblity , which it is. They haven't a notion of doing it though.

    The guy who said it was just getting peed off with people saying the ps3 version was broke (which it is imo) and he then came out with that. IT was an Admin or Mod on the COD forums afaik .

    No need to worry about them pulling the plug...........I think :D

    I'm not saying that shooting down air support makes you a bad player, it's just that bad players tend to shoot down air support.

    Shooting down air support is a great tactical ploy, but let's face it, a lot of n00bs just do it for the cheap xp and don't relly care about the win or the objective.

    How many times have you gotten a CG, and you look at the kd of the person who shot it down, and it's something like 5-19 etc.?


    Edit: Great, host left and the game froze, nice job Treyarch.

    That's got to be some sort of a joke right?? A good team will have a player or 2 nominated to take out air support. We always had X. I've since taken it upon myself to shoot everything down and my stats are just fine.

    Well of course he's 5-19, you've got your Chopper Gunner. You're not going to get one if he's running a game with a 19-0 K/D

    When we run a team 2 or 3 of us always have an anti air support. How do u expect people to play the objective if they are gettin spawn killed by a chopper in somethin like demolition? Me personally I'd rather have a negative kd than to lose a match. My win loss is better than my kill death an that's what matters, so if it means shooting your chopper down so that my team can get out of being spawn raped by a chopper then I'm going to do it.. An if you are that worried about air support use a blackbird and dogs. If your playing an objective game its more important to get the win than kills.

    I never contradicted your first point.

    Your 2nd point is fair enough, just frustrating when you barely get rewarded for your killstreak. This is more of a problem on tdm, I don't mind that much in objective based games.

    .

    I'll shoot down a spy plane , not because of xp but because i dont want the opposition to know where i am , i'll shoot down a chopper , again not because of xp but because i dont want it to kill me or anyone on my team.

    If the opposition shoot down our choppers i dont think of them as noobs , i say fair play to them and i'll change my killstreaks to something that cant be shot down.

    Yup I've noticed every now and again. It happened a good few times to me on that seriously crappy Dom game on WMD last night.

    I really need to start equiping the strela on all my classes, i very rarely use my pistol anyway, usually swap it for someones primary.

    Do the rpgs/strela's etc slow you down anymore if you're using an AR ?

    On my main class I run Famas and Strella, only get slowed down when I switch to the Strella. It's a bit slow but sure you're hardly going to be running around the map with it equipped :).

    theres no such thing as cheap xp , if you have not unlocked your strela , its not easy to take out a chopper with other launchers , rpgs are a waste of time , for me any way , i find them far too wayward.i love taking down enemy air support , not for the xp could not give a dam about xp , just for the sheer fun and enjoyment of knowing the enemy worked his little cotton socks off for 5 secs of nothingness :D

    Stupid thing as well is a direct impact would have killed him.

    I know CoD isn't realistic, but IRL I'd be much more scared about a flashbang going off inches beside me than a flashbang hitting me.

    On the xbox version why the **** when I spawn I still get targeted by a chopper gunner, I though the reduce that option giving the spawney at least 20 seconds or somthing before they show up on the chopper gunner radar ?

    your teammates are spawning around you. I would imagine the lad in the chopper gunner is probably just shooting in your area. As soon as he sees a hit marker he's obviously going to keep shooting.
