    Hang about, how do you change care packages?


    Engineer perk lets you roll CPs like hardline pro in Blops 1

    use engineer and you double tap square (on ps3) to change the package to something else. I love stealing enemy ones, you see someone call one in, hide but so you have a clear sight to the package, use blackhat to hack it, you get the streak and they go kaboom :pac:

    double tap x on xbox when at the care package. I never read the text as I was afraid my cp would get stolen or I would get killed but decided to read it last night and it was a serious face palm moment. the amount of times I got a killer drone or UAV that I could have changed.....oh well!

    Really p*ssing me off lately is finding save place to call in care package, team mate spawns beside it as it drops and steals it on me, and once he tries to take it it won't give me the option to pick it up!! :mad:

    Have to say i do enjoy the game.my one real problem is when im playing kill confirmed and my "team mates" refuse to collect the dog tags after they kill someone.They just run straight past them as if they are bloody booby trapped

    do you think they will cater for people on 56k diall up in the next iteration of CoD?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 799 ✭✭✭Logical_Bear


    also the amount of sh1te game modes in mercernary moshpit(CTF and SnD stand out).
    also less than 2000 online in the league and they were going on about it as if it was the next best thing since they introduced lag comp in blops 1

    retards

    The league doesn't officially start until 1st of December i thought? So maybe no-one's bothering until then. Either way it takes bloody ages to get a match anytime I've tried it, and your whole team rage quits if you're not winning.

    didnt know about the 1st of december thingy but yeah noticed people rage quitting.Always thought either because they were losing or lag comp.

    does take ages alright but having everything unlocked is cool, been playing that more than regular modes

    I am giving up now. I can't play this game anymore. the lag compensation thing is killing me, I try to join already started games instead of starting from the beginning but it doesnt matter.

    I just got bored after a while, it is just too frustrating at the moment and the point system in search is ridiculous.

    Back to mw, not even a month after the game was released... never happened to me with a COD game before... and I have only played a few hours, not like with other CODs when I just wouldnt stop playing the game from the day of the release... and today they have the face to ask me to pay for a season pass... that made me laught alright

    3 bars and your screwed in this game

    And what makes it worse the pc is suppose to have dedicated servers.

    Actually I am always on 5 bars... fibre optic 100 mb link, best connection out there, hence why I am penalize to compensate for other players with a bad connection, so in conclusion, I am always behind anyone. Occassionally I join a lobby where I can actually kill people without needing to empty a full mag on them (sometimes 1 and a half) or 3 or 4 shot with the shotgun at point zero...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,669 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    You mean 4 bars....

    Im not sure what you play on but the 4 bars have the upper hand by far. During the day time when my connection is good (I have 4 bars) I also have the empty a whole mag into them to kill them some times. The servers are crap tbh

    Sorry! yeah 4 bars. From what I ahve noticed if you are on a normal connection you will do okish but in general, in this game, the better you connection the worse. something similar to what happened on mw3.

    Sometimes I feel tempted and want to upload some examples... but is nothing new...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,732 ✭✭✭Magill


    Man... i really wish they just used the old standard ping system... honestly.

    really enjoying it so far..it's a huge change from MW3 which was hugely confusing with the menu system and I've loving the revamped create a class menu.

    I find the menus on this far more confusing than MW3, particularly the challenges where I can never seem to find what I'm looking for. MW3 had a lot of flaws but the class setups for me wasn't one of them. I did hate the lag on the challenge menus though.


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


    I find having something running steadily in the background like netflix or a torrent keeps things more stable, its a joke alright that people that have better net do worse, even though people who pull host have always had the advantage its never been that you're getting creamed by people on 2 bars less than you.

    has anyone tried changing back to a moderate NAT? wonder would that work

    IW are better at menus and design than Treyarch imo, MW2's was nice and simple and bright and easy to find everything.

    Herself was on the net for a while this evening and it def helps. When she went off I went to pot again. Loosing 1v1 the whole time. Hope they fix it. Hate gettin punished just because I have decent net.

    Type 25 seems to be the way to go until the ak

    Mine flipped back to moderate the other day of it's own accord (its' done this before on other COD games) didn't seem to make it any worse or better but I didn't hang around long. My ohfukthislark-a-meter was just about full up at the time!

    I've always been moderate NAT (never ar*ed to figure out how to change to open) and with ping of around 15-20 I'm still losing out most gunfights, watched a few killcams last night to see how the hell I died and seemed I was round the corner sitting there having a cup of tea waiting to die when from my view I've only just soptted the player! :(

    I really hate this lag compensation, like the guys said, getting punished for having a good connection.


    I'm sure you will all agree, the most frustrating thing is you spraying bullets into someone and they just drop you. Watch the killcam and you haven't fired one bullet.

    So annoying!
