[Official] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2


Recommended Posts

Pretty far through the Veteran campaign... may be on the last chapter; don't recall... I'm enjoying it far more than the other COD veteran campaigns. It feels more realistic, and no grenade spamming. I've actually died less than I did on the casual setting because I'm more careful.

Because I have never seen it In-game, neither have you or probably anyone else here.

It's so pathetic, so you just want to flail your arms in the air because of some text? The GAME works, the CONTROLS works and the GAMEPLAY is there - If that hasn't failed in the port, how the hell can it feel anything but a great port?

So all the ****ty ports back in the first days of PS3 were actually great ports because the GAME worked, the CONTROLS worked and the GAMEPLAY was the same and is there?

lol wtf

I find that SO annoying as well. I work hard to get care packages and sometimes they drop really good things. So if I die right after dropping a flare for the package and come back to find my package being stolen, I really let that guy hear it. For things like a UAV/Counter UAV, no big deal. I saw one guy stealing my AC-130 though and just lost it.

I just wish they would have upped the timer for taking others packages a little bit more.

Do care packages have an expiration on them or can they just sit there until they are used?

I see guys call them in and just never even use them, most of the time it is the UAV or Counter UAV ones, but still a UAV is a UAV so I am curious.

They were ****ty because they were INFERIOR to the main product, the PC version is oddly enough superior and thus I would never call it a bad port. So get over yourself and this unfounded hatred.

I think they just sit around.

I never experience that though, every time I've called one half the map enemies included charge towards it. Also yeah whoever said earlier it's annoying when your team mates use yours, +1.

There's times I call it in near team mates to help, or understand if I'm pinned down and someone else uses it (you get exp for sharing). However when I'm right next to it and someone comes along and nabs it it's annoying.

Speaking of care packages, who's had one fall on their head and kill them? Hahaha...it happened to my buddy when we were playing yesterday lol. That, and today I saw one land on the roof of a building, totally inaccessible to anyone lol.

Derail? The camping map. :(

As someone mentioned, pretty much every single map is a camping map but Derail is so much bigger and the atmosphere is awesome. I love laying in the shrubbery, hearing the wind and seeing the snow whirling around. I love sneaking around in it, I love camping out in it, I love firing a well placed WA2000 shot right in someone's face.

I'm one of those guys who just loves a great atmosphere :p

As for care-packages, yes, I've hand them land on roofs, highways running above and have them getting stuck in trees ... After that I decided to skip them - Now they are perfect bait for the chump who called them in, they rush to get them and ... boof, dead.

i had a uav one land outside the map on scrapyard :laugh: imo stealing a teammates is fair game but i wouldnt team kill for one even if it had a nuke in it

I don't think they do although like AB said, I've never seen one sit on a map longer than 2-3 minutes (they are quickly taken).

So far I have had that happen twice. The first one was due to sheer ignorance but the other one killed me after some wicked bounces off a tall building. :p

Tonight very well may have sealed the deal for me. I am now in the state of mind that I pretty much hate this game (all over) again.

I never wound up playing long enough to prestige in MW1, and I can almost without a doubt guarantee I will not for this either. It just gets to a point where enough is enough and it is no longer fun, and that was my whole night tonight.

Just not feeling the people who insist on talking smack and the people who play objective based modes without doing the objective and the overall mindset of most of the people playing. What is ironic is I suppose most of them would be considered really good players, but if being really good means your overall goal is to ruin everyone's time, count me out on that.

I just wish I was able to not let it get to me and still find enjoyment in spawning and being killed instantly, and I very well may have a night soon that makes me completely change my mind and love the game all over again. However tonight was literally perhaps one of the worst overall experiences I have ever had playing a MP FPS. What really sucks is I only feel this way when I party up with a group of people. It is absolutely a truly different game and experience when I play Team Death-match Mercenary (no parties of any kind are allowed) but that goes against the whole premise behind this MP, it is supposed to be about getting together with friends and playing with them, but whenever I have done that as of late, we go against another group of people who's sole purpose is about destroying any fun we are supposed to have.

Oh well, luckily I have Assassins Creed 2, Left 4 Dead 2 and the God Of War Collection to keep me occupied. I am now almost wishing I only rented this game.

And yes, I am fully aware I am whining and / or sound like a grumpy old man who just sucks and cannot stand the fact that I do suck. Thing is on my own I more can handle my own, so that is where the utter frustration stems from. It would be one thing if I felt I just completely sucked and did not handle my own when I play the Mercenary Mode, I could accept that and just write it off as I truly do suck. However I can and do play good at times, just for whatever reason in matches that I am in a party against other parties it just becomes absolutely hellish.

With that said, if anyone is ever up for Special Ops and you see me online, feel free to send me an invite to join you. I am only like 50% through that if that far and I enjoy that.

It's. Just. A. Game.

The reason you die vs parties is because they've found a tactic which works instead of just running and gunning. I'd see it as a challenge to find a counter-tactic which disrupts their style. A good example of this is in Karachi where I've seen a few teams who stick to the buildings and next to never come out into the open. I never party up (mostly because none of my or my friends' invites work regularly enough).

Mind you, I also prefer Mercenary Team Deathmatch too :p It does seem to be a better game and it's LOVELY when you find a game with a group of people who are all of a similar level (not talking ranks).

I like following the guy at level 50 and seeing where he goes - far too often he's a camping sniper though :( but I tend to hang around behind him to protect his ass :cool:

That annoys the hell out of me and I absolutely hate that map :p

The only thing I've found with MW2 is I just cannot play it for a long period of time without getting bored. Usually 1~2 hours is the max I can do. Which may seem pretty normal but I've played other MP games for hours before :p I didn't even play much MW so it's not as if I'm burnt out on the formula.

    • 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.

    • I looked into a few echo devices to find they were riddled with adverts over time. No thanks ill stick to my homeassistant, smart plugs, smart bulbs and cameras that don't cost me a monthly fee and are cheaper to buy. No adverts also.
