[Official] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2


Recommended Posts

wow.. after a long while I played on Xbox tonight.. First hour was absolutely horrific... I totally got owned left and right.. but as I kind of picked up the feel for the pad again it started getting a bit better, until I found a terrific perk.

Well, since i was trying to find a good combo, I will tell you guys that One Man Army Pro is absolutely the best!!!!!

This is Perk 1 and replaces the secondary weapon. I set up my gun to be ACR no sights, FMJ, Stopping Power and Ninja Pro with One Man Army Pro.

Then I set up the same setup with ACR + FMJ + One Man Army + Hardline + Ninja Pro..

3rd class is just like the first one. And lastly I setup SCAR+FMJ+Cold Blooded Pro+Ninja Pro and One Man Army.

What's great about One Man Army is that you change classes on-fly. This by itself doesn't sound too exciting, but when you do switch (it takes about 10-15 secs if you don't have One Man Army pro) and you are fully reloaded with ammo, semtex and flashbangs.

The best part is that you can switch to hardline too.

So let's say you have a scenario where you had 3 kills with ACR+FMJ+Stopping Power Pro.. and you hide for a little bit and you switch class to ACR+FMJ but with hardline.. the next kill you get, will activate the killstreak reward!

Or, one huge benefit is if you hear enemy UAV or their chopper coming in or whatever, you can quickly switch to invisible class where you have Cold Blooded + Ninja so the UAV can't see you.

I'm telling you, when you try this, it's absolutely mind blowing how great it is. Especially if you have one section of the map you protect or a flag in Domination. You will never run out of ammo. :D

The highlight of my evening in MW2 tonight, was that I killed all 6 people on the enemy team with a predator missile :) It was hilarious. The other team was a full blown clan. I absolutely devastated them and most of it was thanks to One Man Army. Terrific perk and my favorite now.

DL we need to make a Official Bad Company 2 thread.

I just saw the Squad Deathmatch videos.

Yeah surprised there is not one done already to be honest.

I think we may still be a little while out to create the Official Thread just yet. Still 3 months away, and truth be told, MW2 was a lot more anticipated then BF: BC2 is (unfortunately I say) so I think an Official thread now will just get lost in the mix. Probably best to wait at least until early January I am thinking. With that said I am not discouraging anyone if they want to put the work into it now, and I am sure no one else would be against it either. Hell, we seem to be talking about it enough so would be the right thing to do just for this thread.

With that said I also did see the Squad Deathmatch videos as well yesterday. :punk: Looks like a really kick ass mode for sure. (Y) I am almost positive I will be buying it for the PC as well even though it's already delayed I think, but especially for Squad Deathmatch I am thinking more people (like 32 players which I believe is the target for PC) would be ideal for that mode.

I think the PC version has finally been updated :) well steam just had to update cod to let me play it, and according to bowlings twitter ps3update was released last nite with the pc due later. Finally we now have fixed 1887's lol, they were really ****ing me off last nite. Though im kinda sad i never got to play on the unlimited ammo servers :( lol

What level do you unlock One Man Army perk? I'm still at a measly level 34.

Does anyone have any suggested loadouts for someone who will be starting out come Christmas? I've tried the M4 (And loved it), same with the SCAR. Intervention <3

While its tempting to use hardline pro (especially for new players), stopping power is more useful. I also find myself using "sleight of hand" because of the pro version which brings your scope up faster (invaluable to winning those random shoot outs).

I've noticed that now SoH is a Slot 1 perk, almost everyone and their grandmother is using it! Invaluable yes, but more often than not people will be using SoH. Whereas before people would sacrifice that extra damage for faster reloading in CoD4. (I would on SMG classes).

SoH and BP are the most popular Perk 1 choices, it seems. I just started to find the value in SoH Pro and it definitely gives you an advantage, though people who rely on sights and heart beat monitors will be out of luck.

I'll have to start watching kill cams more (to check) because that if you're right, that's too bad. I thought I had beat everybody to the punch (or shot :p) on that one.

fourzerotwo: Still waiting for the #MW2 patch to release on Xbox 360. Latest ETA from production was MS hoped to release early "this week". Hope b4 xmas

No need to hurry Microsoft, imagine if you actually had to do anything within a reasonable time period, you might get stressed out.

I'm sick of the glitchers and cheats on this game. There are so many people with modded controllers these days its almost unplayable!

How did you know they were using a modded controller? Anyways, I've really had a rough go of it lately on the game so if anybody wants to team up later today, let me know.

Which is totally unrelated to Microsoft's certification process being slow as hell.

And? I'm making an observation! :D

The price of those pre-build rapid fire controllers is hilarious couldn't imagine while anyone would want to invest so much money for such slight advantage.

Well I finally started playing MW2 on my X360 and it's just eh. I don't see what ANY of the hype is about? MW1 was spectacular with its change from WW2, but this one is just blah. It's the same thing as MW1, but with more perks and frekin overpowered weapons. :(

I was playing Spec Opps though and I think that's the best part of the game. On Veteran it's flippin hard on some of them. :/ Takes me a lot of tries for some missions. :(

    • Microsoft further improving Windows 11 Taskbar with latest builds by Sayan Sen Microsoft has released new Windows 11 builds for users flighting the Experimental channels. The new builds are 26300.8758 for Windows 11 26H2, 28120.2374 for 26H1, and 29617.1000 for future platforms. There are improvements related to the Taskbar, File Explorer and more with the new update. The full changelogs are given below: First we have the build 26300.8758: Changes and improvements gradually being rolled out [Taskbar] Taskbar customization just got easier. As we continue to make improvements to the Taskbar experience mentioned last month, we've introduced a dedicated Taskbar Size setting, making it simpler to find, understand, and personalize your ideal taskbar experience. UI showing the new Taskbar Size setting in Settings. We've also made refinements to the transitions between taskbar sizes for a smoother overall experience. [File Explorer] We've improved the reliability of thumbnail previews for cloud files in the Details pane. The pane has also been reorganized so file properties are easier to find and review at a glance. Fixed an issue where the OneDrive shortcut in File Explorer stops working when File Explorer is run in administrative mode. Fixed an issue where the confirmation dialog might display an internal Recycle Bin file name instead of the original file name when permanently deleting a file. [Sounds] Improved system sounds when using Windows in dark mode. Up next we have build 28120.2374: Changes and improvements gradually being rolled out This update includes a small set of general improvements and fixes [Mobile Device Settings] You can add and manage your mobile devices in Settings under Bluetooth & Devices > Mobile Devices. On this page, you can manage features such as using your device as a connected camera or accessing your device's files in File Explorer. [Remote Recovery Management] Added a recovery remote management plug-in to extend WinRE management capabilities for MDM providers. [Input] The emoji panel (Windows key + period (.)) now uses GIPHY as the GIF provider, delivering a smoother GIF browsing and sharing experience following the deprecation of the Tenor API. Finally we have the changelog for Windows 11 build 29617.1000: Changes and improvements gradually being rolled out [Windows Update] As announced in the Windows Update announce blog, we are now bringing a new unified update experience to reduce the number of reboots you see per month. We are starting by coordinating driver, .NET, and firmware updates to align with the monthly quality update, reducing the update experience to a single monthly restart. See the blog for more information. [Windows Magnifier] Magnifier now gives you more control over how you zoom. You can type an exact zoom percentage directly in the magnifier toolbar to land on precisely the level you need. We've also added preset step increments (5%, 10%, 25%, 50%, 100%, 150%, 200%, and 400%) to the Settings dropdown, so you can jump to common levels in a single click. Whether you need a subtle boost or a dramatic close-up, Magnifier adapts to how you want to zoom. Enter an exact percentage or jump to preset steps —5% up to 400%. Feedback: Share your thoughts in Feedback Hub (WIN + F) under Accessibility > Magnifier. [Accessibility] We're introducing screen tint, a new accessibility setting that applies a color overlay across your entire display, softening its intensity so it's easier on your eyes throughout the day. If bright, saturated screens leave you with tired or sensitive eyes by the end of a long session, screen tint can help. Screenshot showing UI for screen tint in Accessibility, with color presets and a strength slider. To get started, open Settings > Accessibility (or press WIN + U) and look for screen tint under the Vision section. From there, you can: Pick from six preset colors or choose a custom color of your own. Adjust the tint strength slider from a subtle wash to full intensity. Night light warms your display to reduce blue light that can interfere with sleep. Screen tint reduces overall screen intensity to ease eye fatigue and light sensitivity during the day. They tackle different problems and you can use both at the same time, one working on warmth and the other on intensity. Note that turning on screen tint will disable color filters, and vice versa. If you currently rely on color filters, you might need to keep screen tint turned off. Feedback: Share your thoughts in Feedback Hub (WIN + F) under Accessibility > Narrator. [Voice Access] Voice Access now supports Portuguese (Portugal), Portuguese (Brazil), and Korean (South Korea). [Audio] Continuing our work on improving Sound Settings, we've made a few more updates in this build: We've adjusted the description text for the Allow option in properties for audio devices to include the current state of the device, to improve the clarity of the text and the purpose of the button actions. "Listen to this device" is now available in properties for audio devices, so you don't need to enter Control Panel for this functionality. [Multiple Desktops] Improved explorer reliability when switching between multiple desktops. [Storage] We've updated the dialog when creating a Dev Drive to now support specifying the size in GB instead of only MB. This has also been added when changing the size of volumes under Settings > System > Storage. [Personalization] This update improves color selection accuracy when adjusting your accent color to match your wallpaper when automatic accent color selection is enabled in Personalization settings. This update improves wallpaper persistence reliability across restarts and upgrades, including better support for large-resolution wallpapers and other scenarios to prevent solid color wallpaper fallback. [Display and Graphics] Improves the reliability and persistence of applying color profiles. You can view the official blog posts here (link1, link2, link3) on Microsoft's site.
