[Official] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

[DirtyLarry Veteran]

Have you been following the thread? Some are a little more than annoyed, in fact I can imagine sleepless nights spent tossing and turning. :laugh:

It's just humorous and I don't really care either way.

Yeah. Okay then.

[Razorwing]

Where you with us by any chance? I swear so stupid, and that was the first time I have played the game in like a week, and sure enough first match free for all on rust. In fairness though it was fine after that, but still just so stupid to deal with.

All I know is I finally tried the Battlefield Bad Company 2 MP Beta on the PS3 last night. It is no secret on here I am a fan of Battlefied, so as soon as it hits retail bye bye forever Modern Warfare 2, and I really may just trade it in soon so I get some credit.

I'm not sure Larry.. lol. I just was joining a Ground War match and then that happend. I left the match after thinking it was glitched.

I can't believe I am getting this frustrated with an IW game right now. I haven't been able to play Domination for over a week now. Yea a similar thing happened back when MW came out when Live went down. The difference is the leader boards weren't permanently screwed up because of this unlimited ammo matches.

What a joke.

We were able to play Ground War Domination for a good amount of time last night after getting stuck in that one match on Rust (which was setup as Domination) No hacks/glitches/unlimited ammo, nothing. It was actually pretty decent. Yeah, I know it rotates with TDM, but at least you can get some Domination games in. There is one plus. More people to kill :laugh:

Have you tried checking that out?

Hadn't thought of that yet. I just assumed Ground War was just as bad as Domination with every match going to one of those hacked ones.

Unlike most people who seem to be appreciating BC2's upcoming release, I just can't get into that series. While I did play a decent amount of BF:1943 during the summer, I just hate vehicles in multiplayer. Everybody rushes for them and you always have a dumb person (to put it kindly) get destroyed in one in seconds. Hence why I like the COD series so much and why its so frustrating to see it struggling right now.

For those arguing for the multiplayer beta, how would that have helped in the case of the infinite ammo problem?

Well first off, you havent played with me. :laugh: With a good engineer I can stay in the same tank an entire round. Second off it really is not like that with the vehicles in Battlefield. Sure you have some like me, who like the tank and will try to get it first, but if not, you can jump in a jeep (which seats 4 i think?), an ATV now (which has a backseat we found out last night), hell in Battlefield 2 on the PC there was the APC that sat 6, and honestly for the most part people are actually cool with the vehicles and will drive people to the destination, etc. Then honestly, there are people who could care less about the vehicles and you can wind up in a match like I did last night, were there was always at least one to two vehicles just sitting there waiting to be used.

So just wanted to share that. Sounds like you have been in some bad matches with some bad people. Finally I would like to make the point, you can never touch a vehicle in an entire Battlefield round and still have an absolute blast. Sincerely and truly the vehicles are there for those that like them, but not needed, and people on foot are pretty damn well equipped to handle the vehicles (C4, Rocket Launchers, Etc.)

I feel an MP beta wouldn't have. From what i've read, the game was hacked. Hacked to the point where a beta would have made no difference.

I have and I've seen the destruction first hand that Larry dishes out. :laugh:

As for the Battlefield games on the 360 that I've played (BC1 & 1943), with DL, Munky, Sethos, .Kick, Massiveterra etc, we've always had just a good fun time. The games just seem to be "lighter" and as Larry said, just an absolute blast to play. Whereas with COD, its just too easy (in my eyes anyway) to get frustrated, annoyed and really aggravated really fast.

It was a rhetorical question. :p

I guess I hope an MP demo comes out so I could at least try BC2 before committing to anything. After loading up MW2 again tonight, only two of my friends have cheated kill streaks due to the infinite ammo rooms but the leaderboards still seem to be off by quite a bit.

I'll be on Domination this weekend if it is back to normal if anybody wants to him me.

I hope that comment wasn't in regard to my comment about the Microsoft certification process as those are not related, as soon as a patch hits certification it's not being tested for game purposes, it's just being screened and tested that it won't break anything related to the live network, break rules, contain anything illegal etc.

For releasing a simple patch to fix major issues with a game you play? Yes it is.

Not directed at you - was just a general comment.

Man.. I miss those days of BF2 on Karkand where we had the 2 tanks.. both engineers.. both repairing the tanks as we dominated the round.. I really think there will never be a game as good as BF2 was... (IMO).

Yep very well said. It is lighter from that aspect. I never once in my life playing BF felt that person was a cheat or that person is to good or that person sucks and is only good because of thermal scope, whatever the situation may be that frustrates me, I never fealt it.

Bro those definitely were the days (I can hear the archie bunker music in my head LOL) but seriously what a great game and I do agree, not sure there will ever be another game that wraps me up into it like that did. If a game could make me wake up early on Saturday to play it like we used to do every weekend we could, it is a game that is amazing for sure :laugh: . And Karkand, possibly the best map ever, just was a great game.

With that said, Bad Company 2 is the closest we are ever going to get to that PC experience. This is one you have to get. Skip MW2, get this in March when it comes out.

"fourzerotwo: #MW2 Update in Test now: 1887s Balanced. Public "private" Match fix. Infinite Ammo fix. Prestige Hack on PS3 fix."

ABOUT MOTHER****ING TIME!

Ha Ha, I hated them things until I got them. They are so unbalanced but they are so fun to use, once I tried them I couldnt help it ;)

i must get 2000 kills with the 1887's before they get nerfed lol

if u cant beat em, join em

Amen. I got really good with them. 2-3 kills a pop. Left trigger, right trigger repeat ;)

Good god you people act like no game ever has had bugs before. The problems are getting patched, what is the problem exactly?

I feel the issues is that it is so rampant. I have never played a game where so many people participate in so many hacks and glitches. Sure, here and there you get some but this is over the top.

Ahhhh, those were the days except my two sons and I would play AT and have a field day destroying tanks. 2 to three (front track) placed shots kill quickly. We also loved boobie trapping the tanks. You could crawl under the tank and place C4 on the belly. Then when I see the tank going down the road, boom ;)

[Razorwing]

can't wait till they fix the 1887s. They were getting annoying.

[WastedJoker]

which one are the 1887's again?

Yeah I remember your kind of people

Its partly why I stopped playing BF2

You spawn-camping raping ***

Try something that actually requires skill

(Akimbo) sawn-off shotguns I believe

Thats the Rangers.

[Browno]

Just been playing, every game I get into at the moment is a private match glitch, it's putting my ratio up for kills to deaths, and i'm getting **** loads of kills, but I have to say, i'm gonna forget about all these maps, and sometimes I wouldn't mind playing other maps rather than being dumped into Rust with Free for All with teams where you can kill your team mates, get XP or Domination, which is like hell. Hope this patch gets in quick.

Prestige 1 - 52 :)

Someone was complaining a lot over mic in that video :p

[MillionVoltss]

Aww BF2, Spawn killing pilots in the plane from on buildings, Placing C4 n your own jeep and going kamikaze, A great machine gunner spotter / pilot combo in the helicopter was more powerful than the tank combo. One level where a medic could get a ridiculous amount of points in an alley way by dropping health packs and zapping people back.

They should of included more features in the new battlefield games.

Actually we had plenty of skill, and We never ONCED spawn camped. No need. We would dominate just simply driving around. So nice try, but that was not our thing, and we never needed to do it. We would just drive around the town and take all our spots for the team and then move around accordingly and defend each position and / or take them back. Never ONCED spawn camped, and if someone was spawn camping our team, we would take them out accordingly. So way to assume just because we used tanks we would spawn camp. Besides, spawn camping tanks are the easiest to take out. You spawn with some C4 and go behind them and they are done, was not really hard to take care of at all.

EDIT - And actually we were on foot plenty of times.

Note the medic kit Stats. I was on foot plenty of times as a Medic.

There are my Armor stats. So I was in a Tank approximately 33% of the time I played, as my total playing time is 147 hours. And in all kinds of Vehicles over 50% of the time.

But enough talk about Battlefield. This is the MW2 thread and we have derailed it enough I believe.

Seeing as your killstreak is only 32 I will take my words back, but Karkand was usually a mix of tank rape, dolphin diving, nadespam noobtubing :/

Fair enough. (Y)

Yeah honestly I never really experienced it either, but I definitely never, ever did it, and neither did jerzdawg. Honestly in Karkand depending on what side I was on, we usually never went past the bridge and or past the ridge (the one buy the gas station side) as it was just not fun and it was stupid. We always played as fair as possible. In all fairness we did bookmark most of our favorite servers and would usually after awhile just tend to join them as we knew it was people out to play and not grief. Also the servers we played on were also pretty tightly monitored, and if people spawn camped, they got kicked pretty damn quick.

I actually wish games on the console could implement a team vote kick option, but I just know people would abuse the hell out of it.

I honestly know Karkand like it was somewhere I grew up, I pretty much would be willing to bet I could draw it on a piece of paper and be at least 75% accurate. I just loved the game, and was lucky enough to not encounter idiots I guess. Again though there were definitely servers if you camped, you got kicked, really was that straight forward.

[PixilEyes]

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

I just saw the Squad Deathmatch videos.

[Massiveterra]

Isn't it ironic that in a Modern Warfare 2 thread that all people are talking about now is Battlefield?
