Decent amount of experience with the first, but IW can't really make a game based off the belief EVERYONE who'll buy the sequel played the hell out of the first.

Anyway before it looks like I'm angry about this I'm not, I just think it's a little careless and kicks off MW2 as frustrating more than fun for me when I finish with 2 kills, 16 deaths :p Most of that not because I'm REALLY bad, but I have no clue about the maps and I'm playing with rank 30+ players who know them back to front.

For the first couple of ranks at least it should try to keep you with players say 10~13 and under, then after that for the sake of speed open it up to higher ranks. Just IMO anyway. Obviously 9 months after the games released and you're playing it for the first time that might be harder.

I dunno, in COD you cant really tell a persons skill by the level that person is - more like how long they have played.

The game is so straightforward not to mention you level very fast that even lvl1s can own lvl30+ people :p

Ok guys I need help with the Pitt so I can get the achievment! Could someone please tell me the combination of guns to use because I have a feeling it's just a matter of using up one gun and switching guns instead of reloading (be ause it's faster) and the using your knife for the last target before the final run to the finish am I wayy off?

I ran through it once so I could get the USP. Then I used an M9 and that pistol, used the M9 till the stairs or the entrance to the first building. I then swapped to the USP reloading when I jumped down. Ended up with a time of 35 odd seconds then got -5.7 knocked off due to hitting all the targets and not wasting a bullet.

That was to be expected. How many people online do you think actually mean what they say.... Too many hypocrites running around this world. I'm boycotting it. Playing MW1 still :p

I'd be boycotting l4d2 as well, but since my friend knows someone with EA, I'm getting a free copy with luieville bat :)

I played through the singleplayer, and I found it pretty weak as a game. The locations, the characters and the weapons all looked amazing. But for the most part the gameplay was just generic and bloody annoying. I continually found myself lost or cornered with no cover! Most of the levels open with stunning landscapes but before long my screen is red and I am searching for cover as my team wait for me do something. I had these problems with COD4 but they seem alot worse in MW2. The story wasn't bad, but it was continually over the top which gets old fast. The best bits, for me, were non-combat bits.

Man way to get a well spoken member of the gaming community on to take part in the debate. :laugh:

I never heard of this thirsty gamer, but wow he was not eloquent whatsoever, in fact it seemed like he was so damn pleased just to be on camera that he almost forgot how to talk completely. My assumption has to be they contacted a few more reputable gaming news sources and none of them wanted to participate in the discussion since they realized it was just sensationalism, so they wound up with this guy, but seriously while he may have been trying to make a decent point and argument, he really was a poor representation for the gaming community at large.

Is it me or is this one alot harder in MP than CoD4 was? CoD4 was hard enough with all the random things that can happen, stray bullets going through walls and hitting you in the head, random grenades, stray noob toobs etc. but with all the other variables thrown in this one it makes it really REALLY hard to be consistently good.

All these killstreaks we can unlock are hard to get excited about due to them being really f*cking hard to unlock! In CoD4 I could get a helicopter on average once every game, in MW2 I'm lucky to get 1 UAV.

I'm no newbie to shooters, I've played them since I can remember, so I'm not so sure it's my lack of skill as much as it is the unbalance of this game.

    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      Just install Linux Mint that is a real blessing and many times cheaper because you can continue using your old Windows computer/laptop with the latest Linux updates.
    • Why Delta Chat is the best decentralized messenger you have probably never tried

      By Nas · Posted

      Interesting share -- however it does not make sense: Email messages get stored somewhere, so how is Delta Chat "based on email" and decentralized without actually storing anything? By Web3 standard practices, the various Relays would require dedicated storage to make messages available to the recipients (like a large series of message queue channels, akin to racks of traditional post office boxes)... and Contacts must be two-way confirmed in order for encryption keys to be exchanged (ostensibly every key-pair is uniquely bound between sender and recipient) and the Relays would preserve the public keys in order to facilitate message carriage... or every device stores all sorts of keys and contact info. All of this to say, decentralized messaging is like running Bluesky nodes except instead of discovering/browsing public feeds by various posters (at the given node) these Delta Chats would be relaying encrypted messages (via Relays) that only trusted recipients would have the appropriate decryption key (their own private key) to read it. But this doesn't solve the "it's like email" sales pitch. The only way it's like email is that there's encrypted binary stuff being transported from your app into the federated ether of Delta Chat Relays for others to decrypt (hopefully only the intended recipient)... but outside of this federated relays framework, it is absolutely nothing like email.

Viruses, power failure, or other unknown reasons may cause data loss, so it is a good habit to regularly back up the drive that stores important files, you can at least recover lost files from the backup image files in the event of a disaster. System Clone / Disk Clone / Partition Clone Migrate the Windows operating system from one disk to another SSD or larger disk without reinstalling Windows, applications and drivers. Clone entire disk to another disk and ensure that the contents of the source disk and the destination disk are exactly the same.

Incremental/Differential/Full Backup Different backup modes are supported, you can flexibly choose data protection schemes, which can improve backup performance and save storage space while ensuring data security. Delta Restore Delta restore uses advanced delta detection technology to check the changed blocks on the destination drive and restore only the changed blocks, so it has a faster restore speed than the traditional full restore. Universal Restore This feature can help us restore the Windows operating system to computers with different hardware and ensure that Windows can work normally without any hardware compatibility issues. Hasleo Backup Suite 5.8.2.2 changelog: Improved creation of bootable media that supports the UEFI CA 2023 certificate Fixed an issue that caused system restore to fail Fixed an issue where file backup could not list drives under Windows ARM64 Fixed an issue that caused backup of MacOS files/folders shared via Samba to fail Fixed an issue that caused "Smart Backup" to not work properly Fixed other minor bugs Download: Hasleo Backup Suite 5.8.2.2 | 39.7 MB (Freeware) Links: Hasleo Backup Suite Website | Hasleo Backup Suite Guide | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
