MW2

Im up to 37 i think in MP. The MP is smooth as butter and by far the best MP experience i have tried. The maps are very very impressive compared to the terrible maps in CoD4..

Now with that said... The MP is completely broken as far as kill streaks go. I can not bitch because i happen to be on the winning side most times.

The pave low many times will get you over 10 calls for calling it out.
The chopper gunner is the stupidest thing IW has done so far.. It just about guarantees 7-10 kills when called in so far when i use it. I had a run with 16 kills just off one chopper gunner... Thats dumb. I will continue to use it though until they change it.
 
This is absolutely not COD4 1.5 as has been suggested before. The AI are much smarter and the gameplay is really much smoother. The graphics maybe feel like a half jump, but it's a half jump up from amazing. It's really comparable to Uncharted 2 vs Uncharted kind of a jump, where you keep the style and refine what's good instead of fucking everything up. I am happy this game was NOT all hype.

Multiplayer not really my thing. I will get a lot of it in I'm sure regardless, but it's really more a twitch game than strategy.
 
I wasn't diggin' this game until I hit 19. The 3rd person playlist is friggin' uber. I was all ready to take this back after I beat the SP this weekend but it's a keeper now. I don't know that I'll be playin' much first person, it is the same old camp fest the first game turned into. Doesn't do anything but frustrate me. Seems like it takes a little more to get a kill in 3rd person as well. I really like that zooming only applies a scope effect to snipers. It really is what Socom: Confrontations should have been.

I really don't care for the maps though (except Rust, it's awesome), or maybe I just need to get use to them. It seems like Treyarch made them as they feel more designed like the maps in WaW. However, I was fond of the -original- maps in MW. There are just to damn many places to hide for my liking. Kind of disappointing that a game of this caliber doesn't have destructible buildings as well.
 
Im pretty far in the story and having a blast, but wtf?! this is the EASIEST Veteran mode EVER!!! Im moving through it super fast with little to none on dying. Im not complaining much since im not getting stuck on one spot for hours on end and cursing and yelling at the TV.
But, Im used to Veteran move just being an all out slaughter fest and your the prey.
Not Mw2 though, thats for sure.

I feel like you die faster in MP than the first one, and there really are far too many places to hide. But the maps so far have been great, i have yet to have a map come up where i just groan and want to skip it, but then again, i just want to learn all the maps really well.
 
haha nice! i hope 3 isnt like that tho!!

Just finished campaign, Completed it on Veteran with a total clock in of just over 8 hours. Thats pretty short for Veteran mode!!!!!

But i gotta say, the story was EPIC! I dont think i have ever been into a story that deep, the other CoD stories confused me and didnt make me care much.
all that bouncin around between soldiers in different parts of the world, i never knew who i was playing as or who was who or what the hell i was doing anything for.
I knew the basics of the story but didnt care much to follow, just liked playing.

This one made me feel like i couldnt put it down, I mean i probly didnt care before because it was another country where the wars were taking place, nothing familiar to me. Once they put it on our home turf, It kept making me think "what if this did happen?", Then the controversial scene, i agreed not to be offended, But i certainly couldnt help but feel bad for playing that part.
Just because you have to do it as a covert american, thats what made it emotional.
The game was NON STOP ACTION!

I loved every single moment of it and i will be playing through it again, Unlike the other CoD installments where it was play once, sweep up achievements, multi player from then on.
I have yet to really get into spec ops but im looking forward to it.

and dammit, how long will we have to wait for MW3, i wanna continue this shit!!

I have no idea what that had to do with my post but you should go rip that controller out of his hands and play it if you went and got it.

Lol if you ever played with a female friend online you would know what I was saying when I said it was bad for women. I can't count the number of times the lobby has been a very uncomfortable place because I'm female, and I'm not the only one. I've gone to the defense of other females when I happened to be in a lobby with one.

** sorry, about not being able to mute players

Why do you say that? I played through all the Alpha ones on veteran and at most it took 2 maybe 3 tries to beat em but I wouldn't say they were hard by any means. Like I said tho I only played through the alpha ones, so maybe bravo, charlie etc get quite a bit harder? They are fun as hell tho, liked the sniper evade one.
 
Patch today fixed the trophies..now i gotta do the whole damn campaign over again lol, might as well toss it on veteran, especially since it's not lettin me log into online play ;/

I think that's why most girls who play don't care to talk :P heh at least all my friends when they play don't use their mics cause they don't like being bothered.

I've kinda gotten used to laying into fags online. I have tooo many friends online at any given time, often more than a lobby will support to mute myself, or not use my mic.

BUT, to clarify, you most certainly can mute players in game. I must have misunderstood what he wrote >_>
 
Is anyone else getting cock-blocked by that "Connecting to Matchmaking Server" message? I haven't been able to connect for almost 2 hours.

What was broken about them, I got some trophies just fine last night before today's patch.
 
If anyones up for some games add me up on I Sick One I. Dont have too many on my friend list since my old halo2 days
 
I couldn't wait so I sat down and played through the single player tonight. Awesome is not even a good enough word to describe it. From the second level and on it's non-stop go mode.

Spoiler:
I'm a huge fan of Cpt. Pierce so to find him as the prisoner I was goin' to nab was a huge, huge rush. Also, I dunno why, but seein' my capital city in ruins had a big impact on me. I was mesmerized the -entire- time and that moment just hit like a brick. The ending, can't say enough about how IW has a knack for perfecting an end. That was cool as hell. I didn't expect that fucker to turn on me so I was steamed up and ready to kill all of his men and him. They did a really good job of makin' this game personal.

I am loving it!

I'm not going into details about gameplay because I need to play more.

I have played a bit of the campaign as some multiplayer.

I will say one thing, the graphics and over-all-look of this game is CRAZY! I likes
 
I really want to sit down and play through the campaign, but any time I log in I get multiple invites to play online and its really hard to pass it up lol. The online is ridiculously fun.

The multiplayer seems to be a little more in your face then the last one. Maybe I havent gotten the hang of it yet but sniping on most levels doesn't seem to do it for me. The ACOG seems better this go around though, I popped it on the SCAR and was doin pretty good with it. Bling is pretty sick too, M4 with a holographic scope and silencer is pretty sweet along with cold blooded. Do that with some tactical insertion as well and you got yourself some rape. Was playin on the level with the two buildings, (highrise?) and got into their base playin sabotage. Put my tactical insertion down and was just pickin them apart. From behind.

Also I was super psyched the first time I played Brecourt or w/e the new map is called, brought me back to my CoD1 days on the PC. Such a sweet map to through some major flanks down. Overall I'm having a blast so far, and still have yet to go through single player, and the rest of spec ops. Maybe I'll be able to get around to em when the initial hype around the game wares off a bit.

I don't know for some reason they weren't registering on campaign, I looked it up it wasn't just me so maybe you got lucky lol, working fine now tho 60% through on hardened all trophies poppin up just fine.

Even with the patch tho other people's trophies still wont load for me gets to 42% and just locks up which is weird.

Aye, I hear that. I love doin' that, especially on the big maps. I use The SCAR with a silencer and FMJ though. The M4 doesn't pack enough punch, for me, to be suppressed and leave off Stopping Power. One thing though, what is the point of usin' Holographic scopes over Red Dots? Seems like all it does is take up more sight room. People say the Holographic is better for close range, but they are just giving an opinion, no claims or anything.
