[Official] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

That was the problem when I used the Uzi though (fast bullet consumption). I say problem, but I did well with it for a while. I can't decide what to use. :(

Finally got to level 70 and got to try out the AK. While deadly when you actually hit them because it does so much damage, the recoil is horrendous. They have definitely increased the recoil quite a bit from COD4. I ended up going through prestige because with the AK so nerfed, there is really no reason to stay at level 70.

Really? From what I've seen it's pretty much the weakest SMG.

High RoF, very accurate and can empty a clip in under 5 seconds! I'm taking it more often than my ACR now! :(

Edit: The only weapons I use to come top of TDM and 1v1's is the Vector and the ACR. Both lol accurate. :)

Isn't teamwork awesome!

Edit: Admittedly we did try to shoot explosive barrels through cover then got rather annoyed when it wouldn't work. I guess I should have spent more time reading than shooting ;D

Edit 2: Just got 30-8 on FFA using the Vector. Safe to say it's rather a good weapon in the right hands. :D

My personal best in MW2 for PC and no hacks of any kind as I despise the fact they exist killing all the fun. Interestingly enough people didn't accuse me of cheating either. It was a great game. Predator Missile + Harrier + Pave Low.. along with Hardline perk = WIN :) Forget about Nuke... this is where the fun is! :)

[DigitalE]

Is there a place where I can report javelin glitch cheaters? (Xbox 360 version, if that matters)

[John Freeman]

Mkay, so question about prestige thingy that probably has been answered already - when you enter it you loose all your unlocked weapons? Right?

Yep. In my opinion, its not worth it.

[Boz]

Well depends.. each prestige run gives you an additional slot for loadouts.. so I prestiged to get the 5th slot so I can add another loadout when I play so I can switch to quickly. For some people this is not worth it but you can expand up to 3 extra slots and then you have a wider variety of combos for your play.

Had to go to YouTube and look up the Javelin glitch. Wow, that really is stupid and hope they patch it ASAP on the 360, but I have luckily never encountered it.

So we did play a bit before, I had the worse consecutive rounds I think I probably ever had. Just did outright awful. Meh is all I can say at this point. That and I cannot wait for Bad Company 2.

[Berserk87]

i never knew about that javelin glitch but it has been used against me a couple times...

i just played 6 games in a row where half the people on the other team were camping.

Just got the "Get 2 headshots with 1 bullet" Challenge with akimbo rangers :D win

[Richard Hammond]

I hate MW2 players who use akimbo shotguns or 1887s, no skill involved just run round the corner and unload in the enemies general direction, if they have an assault rifle theres jack **** they can do about it, really ****es me off.

:yes:

Right there with you.

MW2 just misses out on a whole different fight when you don't have vehicles. BF FTW

There's many aspects to this game that completely removes the skill aspect and those shotguns are certainly one of them. Oddly enough, I rarely ever get killed by 'em but my team-mates usually does and watching it in kill-cam does make you want to facepalm hard. Honestly though, my biggest 'weapon' gripe is the Riot Shield - That thing is so overpowered it's not even funny, especially when you encounter a person who knows how to use it and you ran out of grenades. A see-through piece of plastic that can take an infinite amount of bullets, cover the entire body when crouching and you can shield-bash causing one-hit kills? G.T.F.O

They should really add a hit limit and then let the shield break or turn it into a massive titanium motherf ... with a tiny window you can see through, limiting your view immensely - At least that would make it a bit more fair. Luckily it's rarely used in the matches I join but when someone finally uses the thing, it can just ruin your day :laugh: I swear, every time someone uses that shield and they kill someone, the person who dies is usually very vocal about the overpowered nature of the shield :p

It takes 2 hits and as you take more damage your view gets more and more obstructed to the point where you can't see. :)

WTB you guys staying on topic.

Let's just add this again, as it was removed; you know I play Hardcore and in Hardcore mode, it only takes one hit plus a slightly obstructed view doesn't kill you - Still lets you run towards your opponent and just give them a quick bash. In hardcore mode on the 360, where you can't just just do a 720 spin in a second and hit a guy in the face 5 miles away with a pistol ( PC version (N) ), it's hard to gain the advantage 1 v 1 versus a shield because when you finally see an exposed area it's not for long and then it shifts to other parts of the body, making it impossible at times to do anything other than running away or hoping a teammate comes to your aid.

Still, glad they are so far and few in between plus my class and playstyle usually means they walk right past me, letting me knife them or shoot 'em in the back.

Modern Warfare 2 - XP boosting Glitch

Looks like this may be why they use riot shields a lot. :p

[GuJu]

next week. My college semester will be over. and I will be playing this 24/7

[Chemaz]

I seriously hope they nerf the riot shield soon, to stop this boosting and make it less annoying. Either make it so FMJ can penetrate it or make it so after so many shots it either breaks or chunks of it break off

Its not nerfed. Try firing a real AK, they kick like crap and are the most inaccurate gun I have fired. COD MW2 finally made it what it is, crap. The only reason it is all over the world is because it is cheap to make.

To use the RS you have already sacrificed mobility and any kind of long range weapon, taking away any further incentive (damage sponge) to use it would render it useless and never used.

[John Freeman]

Aww hell yeah! Finally - Star 69 and Honor Roll! Wetworks was ****ing nightmare with last hostage extraction we always managed to miss few baddies :| But anyway - feels 1337 to be one of the 0.5% :laugh:

I'm well versed in the history, but thanks anyways. If they were going to give it that much recoil, why not have it as a starter weapon then?

[Spookie]

Apparently they improved the matchmaking today. Lost 40 mins struggling to get 4 of us in to a game with endless could not connect to hosts and drops. Then to top it off:

ARGH!

I heard it's due for release on the PS3 soon too. ;D
