WastedJoker Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Uhh there's pretty damn generous aim assist in MP.You can see your crosshair physically move quite a bit at times. Are you sure? I've never noticed a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad. Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Are you sure? I've never noticed a thing. I've had mine turned off online without realising. But yeah, when it's on you can really tell the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WastedJoker Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 There's an option to turn it off and on in MP? I figured that just applied to SP. Hmmmm. Does it only work for hip-fire or aiming down sights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethos Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 You sure the on / off works for online? It was exactly the same in Call of Duty 4, pretty hefty Aim-assist when aiming down the sights and the toggle option was ONLY for SP - Mega lame.

WastedJoker Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Aim assist in SP only works if you're close to the target and there's a definite "snap" to the target as soon as you aim down the sights. I've just tried it on MP and there's nothing like that. I aimed down my sights using SCAR-H w/ ACOG sights and there was no snapping to target or even dragging when someone passed it by.

Sethos Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Try with another scope, as I believe certain scopes there's no aim-assist but there won't be snap on locking, the MP aim is purely magnetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoL Veteran Posted November 27, 2009 Veteran Share Posted November 27, 2009 Wait there is an aim assist in multiplayer?? :blink: I haven't notice that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoL Veteran Posted November 27, 2009 Veteran Share Posted November 27, 2009 Its probably the reason why you've got so many kills LOL I don't have a lot of kills and my K/D ratio is around 1.29 Same K/D ratio as any of the other FPS I've played. You can notice the aim assist in SP but it doesn't work with MP. At least not here I think. :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyLarry Veteran Posted November 27, 2009 Veteran Share Posted November 27, 2009 As far as I know, it is only a very light aim assist in the MP, and it is nothing like the SP where it snaps right to a person, it just moves every so slightly in the direction the person who is running when you aim at them (if they are moving), It is more like a very small nudge in the correct direction, not a true aim assist by any means.

It's enough to be annoying if you rely on pin-point accuracy - The times my aim has been messed up when trying to kill someone and a second player running in front of my scope, literally dragging it away from my target. Oh and it's not always just "a very small nudge", the effect can be pretty profound in certain situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowl Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 So you prefer to play FPS in real life? :huh: MW2 looks the same was MW, nothing really new of a breakthrough. BF: BC 2 is going to look better than crysis when it comes out. BETTER THAN CRYSIS? ZOMG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WastedJoker Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Sethos is right about the "drag" aim assist but it's actually not that helpful. It's taken me looking for it to notice it - can't be much of an advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoredBozirini Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Is left for dead 2 a better choice over mw2(for the xbox 360)? I would say it is, solely because L4D2 has zombies (A LOT of them), and that alone makes it better than MW2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that MW2 is the only game to do this (Halo 1/2/3, for example, also do it), but it's incredibly annoying to have the game decide to make your crosshairs chase a target who is not nearly as big a threat as the one you are trying to shoot.

OOOOOOOO Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 I love MW2 ... it has the best graphics I've seen in a game ... the subtleties in the detailing etc is just phenomenal ... the scene where you're in the capital building and looking over Washington is IMMENSE! Don't tell me other games look better right now. They don't. MW2 is getting a lot of geek hate. It happens to all high rated games. The geeks come out in full force to slag the game off because they feel 'cool' or 'powerful' for going against the grain. MW2 is probably the best FPS game I have played. And I've played em all now. It may not be long enough, but no other game immerses you as much, no other game has the 'feel' that MW has ... the feel of the character movement, the guns etc ... it's perfect. Other games pale. There. Done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xilo Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 KZ2 and MAG looks a ton better than MW2. If MW2 is the best FPS game you've played, you are definitely missing out. There are ones on the PC that blow MW2 out of the water... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeke009 Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Are knife fights common on the console like they are on PC? Lightweight pro, marathon pro, commando pro for extended reach and throwing knives. I forget the level name, but there is an open area courtyard and a laundry mat next to it. There was 2 guys chasing each other knifing the entire time. Looked like the greaser knife fight dance from the 50's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other games pale.There. Done. MW2 is impressively fluid due to 60FPS and what it does on consoles for being a 60FPS FPS is impressive, but hell no is it the best looking game, not even on the PC maxed out. To be fair it's variable 60FPS on consoles anyway, but aside from some heavy set pieces in SP, I don't think the frame rate dips much. You certainly can't call it locked at 60, only way you're getting it locked at 60 is on a PC. The feel of MW1/2 is the best 'arcadey feel', hence why it's like half price candy to the masses, but if you're talking in how guns really act and what not, no :p Recoil is pretty much non-existent for a start. I think the biggest problem for people isn't they hate the game, it's just I assume it feels like been there done that, with a SP campaign that's getting a lot of flak, I'm presuming a lot of the COD4 vets are getting bored quickly with MW2 MP as it feels very similar. Of course more of the same when something is good usually goes down well, but there's a fair few other titles coming out just now that are almost overhauls, see AC2 for one, that are drawing people away from MW2.
