hopefully it'll get fixed or the upgrades will be re-jigged a bit because the combinations i mentioned make it farcical in game. its not even remotely realistic or reasonable.

What's even more awesome is when they are host they are impervious to bullets. Essentially you turn in to the T1000 from Terminator 2.

Oh then there is the whole warping thing due to dodgy animations but that's another kettle of fish. :D

Hello Guys, just thought i'd show you some more insight into the Modern Warfare 2 Callsign Database which is in current testing and development. Currently we have Equipment, Basic Training, Operations, Finishing Moves, and Intimidation all XML coded and Payback and Elite in development. Really I am asking for some help with the categories, Killstreak, Precision, Humiliation, and Prestige. Each category is XML coded with this template and layout

<root>

<challenge>
	<title>Ghillie in the Mist</title>
	<level></level>
	<condition>
		<text>I: Get 50 one-shot kills with sniper rifles.</text>
		<callsign_img>images/callsigns/Ghillie.png</callsign_img>
		<callsign_text>Grassy Knoll</callsign_text>
		<emblem>none</emblem>
		<confirmed>Yes</confirmed>

Above is what is then displayed from the given XML data. If some kind member of the community could send me a PM giving their choice of one section to do, we could have this site, ready and full working with in a few days. I can tell you how to fill in the XML fields once you pick a section. The website is at this address.

Thanks, and I hope to see some PM's soon and some feedback would be great too.

Browno.

nice site...and a good idea

i'd love someone to do a section just showing the rank names and their associated icons. would be useful for prestiges...as i often see people on prestige levels and how no idea which one they're at because there are so many rank icons

Another cool thing with MW2 is when you shoot someone and get the +100 for it and right after that the host migration kicks in and the player is suddenly alive when we resume play and stabs you in the face!

After I completed single player (not as good as the first imo, but I won't get into that now) I played multiplayer and then didn't come back for it for a fortnight or so. I've had some time over christmas to play it properly and it's one of the best, if not the best, multiplayer experience I've had in an FPS. So if anybody else has a "meh I'm done with this" feeling after the single player work through it :) The multiplayer is just brilliant.

The multiplayer is just brilliant.

The MP has grown stale for me, the game is bogged down by the killstreaks and silly weaponry. I'll admit I was all over it at first but now everyone is calling in nukes, Pave Lows, Chopper gunners & AC-130s. Each map is a camp-a-thon to your next reward or everyone is running about like a down syndrome Carl Lewis stabbing everyone. It's shine erodes quickly.

What mode are you playing?

Play with my friends and I Spookie and you won't have to worry about killstreaks. We focus on winning the game first and foremost and if some gets a kill streak, great but move on and continue pounding the other team. :p Then again, we play strictly Domination so people can't sit back the entire game unless they want to lose badly.

That's great an all but I'm not paying ?5 a month for a game when BF:BC2 is just around the corner! :F

Just sold my copy never going to buy into the hype of a CoD game again.

See you say that now but gamers have memories like a dead goldfish. Mark my words 2 years from now when Modern Warfare 3 comes out you're all creaming your self on how good the SP will be and how amazing the MP will be too. :p

    • Ford execs say they made a mistake when they replaced human engineers with AI

      By TsarNikky · Posted

      How many other companies will follow Ford's lead? Or, have they already gotten lazy and become enslaved to AI--and now can't figure out how to get out of that mess.
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By TsarNikky · Posted

      Why would any self-respecting intelligent person follow any recommendation by Donald's GOP administration? With almost two years of fabrications, deceit, and blatantly illegal behavior, why believe them now? They had best be gone after the November 2026 election, so we'll wait and see.
    • AltSendme 0.4.1

      By Copernic · Posted

      AltSendme 0.4.1 by Razvan Serea AltSendme is a minimal, cross-platform application designed for fast, secure, and private peer-to-peer file transfers. It allows users to send files or entire directories directly between devices without relying on cloud servers, accounts, or any personal information. Everything is encrypted end-to-end using modern protocols like QUIC and TLS 1.3, ensuring both strong security and low-latency performance. Transfers are verified with BLAKE3 for data integrity, and interrupted downloads automatically resume, making the experience reliable even on unstable connections. You can transfer anything—images, videos, documents, and more. Integrity checks are performed on both ends, so your files are automatically verified for correctness during both sending and receiving. AltSendme works seamlessly across local networks or long-distance links, capable of saturating multi-gigabit connections for extremely fast delivery. With built-in NAT traversal and encrypted relay fallback, it connects devices almost anywhere. The app integrates with the Sendme CLI and will soon support mobile and web platforms. Fully free and open-source, AltSendme offers a lightweight, privacy-first alternative to traditional cloud-based services, removing size limits, upload costs, and unnecessary data exposure. AltSendme 0.4.1 changelog: Release Highlights Self-hosted relays: Run your own iroh relay so transfers don't rely on public infrastructure. Includes a full deployment template in deploy/relay/ with Docker Compose for a VPS and configuration examples for production use. Fly.io support: One-click deploy template for Fly.io, including a quick-start config (fly.dev.toml) for testing without a custom domain, plus production setup with Let's Encrypt and your own hostname. Relay settings UI: New Settings → Network panel to choose how AltSendme connects: automatic public relays, custom self-hosted URLs (with optional auth token), or disabled. Test connections, verify latency, and see live relay status in the footer. Disable relays: Turn off relay servers entirely when you only need same-network transfers (e.g. LAN). Direct connections only. No relay hop required when devices can reach each other. Android graduates from beta: Android is now part of the regular release cycle alongside desktop. APKs ship with each version (universal, arm64, and armv7). Other improvements Private relay access control via shared auth token Relay fallback notifications when a custom relay is unreachable Broadcast mode toggle in sharing settings Android release build fixes (split-per-ABI APKs, universal APK preservation) UI polish: mobile safe-area insets, dropzone layout, transfer progress animation Bug fixes for minification-related serialization issues and system tray icon loading What's Changed feat(relay): add relay status functionality and settings UI (a120cdf) feat(relay): implement custom relay server configuration and verification (51276c7) feat(relay): add configuration for private relay access and enhance observability features (48fbabf) feat(relay): enhance relay URL validation, display connection status (d4fffa0) feat(relay): add RelayChangeGuard component and enhance relay-related translations (16ba514) feat(broadcast): add toggle setting for broadcast mode in sharing UI (ca6d977) fix(relay): correct QUIC discovery port, pin image, templatize fly.dev (52a2ba5) fix: More broken serialization due to minification (67491a9) fix(android): preserve true universal APK across per-ABI builds (e9f256f) fix(ui): conditional safe-area insets padding on mobile (1182f0e) refactor(transfer): CircularRing component animation fix (944572b) chore(android): drop x86 and x86_64 release APKs, keep universal+arm64+armv7 (34ada0b) Download: AltSendme 0.4.1 | ARM64 | ~9.0 MB (Open Source) Download: AltSendme for MacOS | Android Links: AltSendme Home Page | GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Why Delta Chat is the best decentralized messenger you have probably never tried

      By zikalify · Posted

      You are mostly right about the ephemeral nature of it. As I mention in the article, if you dont add a second device or take a backup of your account before uninstalling it, then yes you will lose access to your account. That said, in terms of actual user experience when you sync multiple devices your message history carries across and there's also a Saved Messages chat like there is on Telegram to send messages and attachments between your installs. But yh, what you point out are correct and its not trying to emulate Messenger or Telegram.
    • You've tried DuckDuckGo and Brave Search, now get serious with SearXNG

      By zikalify · Posted

      OK so SearXNG is a meta search engine that you can install locally or use via a public instance. It scrapes other search engines which you choose and then sorts the results. Not as complicated as multiple relays
