now that would be cool!

Another thing that annoys me on mw2....its not a game rant this time,But more of a teammates rant....dont you just hate it when some teammate nub stands right infront of you when your sniping by a window? :D

must have happned at least twice today!

yes, could not agree more. Was on Afghan, HCTDM, had a clear shot with crosshairs over someones head and some twit with an a comes and stands infront of me. I took the shot anyway :P downed both, so got no points, but was worth it :D

What annoys me more than anything though, and it is in this game more than any other game I have ever palyed on, is people moaning. I had someone call me a "knife noob" earlier...wtf is that? It is just crying for the sake of it
 
Yeah its just annoying,I keep slashing them with my knife until they move lol.

Or i love to let out a smoke nade next to them just to pee them off that little bit more :D

Talking about Afghan,That was one of my favourite maps but for some reason ive gone off it now.

lol, I have done the opposite :P Used to hate it but now love it, so many good sniping spots on it.

I hate the one which is just grass with some bunkers in and a couple of buildings on the outskirts, can't remmember the name. It is a sniping map clearly, but there are no elevated positions or hidey holes, so it is boring as hell
 
A sort of sniping map would be cool with loads of buildings,do you remember the map on Modern warfare 1 called "Bloc"?

cod4-map-bloc.php


I always ejnoyed been a sniper on that map.

also it would be great of crossfire come back aswell....only bigger or something,more buildings to snipe from.

What i meant to ask in here was....why is it i cannot hear ppl talking in MW2 on their mics....for example in this vid on the ps3 version you can hear your teammates talking to each other...but when i play,the speaker thing comes up on the side of the sceren with their username and theyre talking but i cant hear anything?

I am happy enough with just crash and overgrown coming back, they were probably the best 2 sniping maps from COD4 imo. I have really got back into sniping on MW2. The barret isn't as clunky as it was in COD4 and it is quality in MW2. I like intervention too now, which a few posts back I said I didn't :P I think the only one I don't like is the W2000 is it? Something like that :P

And the mic thing, idk about PS3, but if you have it on xbox, if you have your headeset plugged in, make sure it is turned up, if you don't have it in, the sound should come through the TV. If you have it on PC, go to options, multiplayer options and make sure mute all is unchecked. Also if you have it on PC depends on their mic settings, it may not be working properly for them, so even though the thing comes up, it doesn't actually put any sound through.

Finally got it a couple weeks ago. Overall I like it, but theres a few things I can't stand.

1. IWNet. Whoever came up with this shit needs to die. I could live without dedicated servers, but connecting to it SUCKS half the time. Open NAT, ports forwarded correctly, firewall isn't an issue, and half the time it takes forever to connect or just downright wont or once I do it takes forever to find a game. Plus, if I wanted to play on xbox live I'd play on xbox live, I don't need a crappy rip off of it. Not having dedicated servers wasn't a huge deal for me, but it kinda is now since what they put in sucks so much.

2. Significantly less maps than CoD4 and half of them kinda suck. I mean at worst they could have thrown some of the old maps in.

3. Grenade launchers. Whoever decided to put these back in needs to die as well. One of the worst features of CoD4, theres a reason most other FPSs don't include the m203.

4. Hardcore TDM sucks without dedicated servers. Retardedly long respawns are lame. I can tolerate 5 seconds or so, but anything over 10 is just stupid, especially the 15 second respawns. Spending half the game in spectator is boring. I dunno what it is about MW2 that EVERYONE in hc tdm feels they have to camp the entire time. Did I miss a sale on camping gear at walmart or something? I dont mind a few people camping, but when EVERYONE is camping the entire time it makes for a very boring game. HC TDM sucking is HUGE for me, I don't think I ever played a regular game in CoD4 or WaW and at least in 2 weapons killed you when someone shot you.

5. Lack of game modes and being able to search. Why aren't things like mercenary available on all the game types? Why no Express versions of the other game types? Sucks not being able to pick one level to play.
 
Knife throwing should not be insta kill if it hits, as if you got hit in the leg it would not kill you, plus I have yet to see someone throw a knife through body armor.

If body armor can with stand even 7.62x39 steel core ammo, then how in the hell could a knife thrown by a man penetrate it?

Unless you hit a vital area, like the neck or head, it should not be insta kill. Know, hand to hand combat with a knife is different as body armor does not cover the sides of a person's body and if you stab someone in their side they are pretty much going to die.

play search and destroy. it's by far the most balanced and competitive game mode. plus you don't have to deal with the shitty re-spawning.

the game is far from realistic, the throwing knife most definitely should be a one hit kill anywhere, considering how hard it is to hit somebody with it.
 
Haha they crated that body armor where i live, that was a pretty big step in body armor design.

But i agree with you on the knife throwing tlarkin, but for me i have yet to have someone hit me with a knife(ive playd for about 3 weeks, every day for about 2 hours); so it don't think it matters much in the game, cause its only once and a blue moon that youll find someone is skilled enough to hit you quite often w/o missing a bunch of times.

Meh, I've never liked the objective games.

edit: And now I remember why I hate S&D. I'd rather wait 15 seconds than not respawn.

new patch:

Some of the changes in this latest patch include normalising the sprint speed for the Care Package, Emergency Airdrop, and Sentry Gun marker grenades. They have also improved the placement of sentry guns and also fixed some player collision issues. The patch has also put in some tweaks to improve the mouse latency in the game. All in all it's a fairly minor update.

Fixed grenade sprint speed :D:D
 
no new maps then? :cool:

not been on MW2 for a few days....gotta re-install due to sound problems too.

Gotta love Windows :eek:
Click to expand...

Yup windows...its....fantastic :eek: :P

Nah Windows 7 has been alot more reliable than Xp or Vista for me,I just think its creatived dodgy drivers tbh....these past two or three updates have been nothing but a nighmare.

Anyway re-installed now,Installed older creative drivers and hopefully il be playing MW2 again tonight.....With full sounds! :D
 
IWNet is completely killing any fun for me. Finding a game or staying connected is retardedly hard. Might be fun on xbox or ps3, but on PC it's ****ing terrible.
 
since the latest patch its been a nighmare most times to get into a game...and when i do it randomly cuts out mid match!

Not all the time though,thankfully but has happned enough times.

Btw...what is is with the prestige....is it like once you reach the standard lvl 70 you can then become pres?.....what happens when your lvl 75 pres?...dont tell me theres another one on top of that?

there are 10 levels of prestige, so you get to 70, then prestige, get to 70, then prestige, get to 70, then prestige etc etc 10 times. You get new titles and (I think?) extra custom slots too, which it is worth doing just for that. You get new little symbol things aswell next to your name, which is pointless, but sets you apart from the noobs that got to 70 by grinding it and cba with prestiging because it is too hard or whatever
