MW2

So two new glitches have made this game annoying as shit to play lately. The javelin shit where if you kill someone the javelin launches no matter what and kills anyone in range of the guy, and its a pretty damn big range.
Then the triple your running speed shit where people use the care package crap to run at 3 times the speed and knife people repeatedly, im so annoyed by this shit already and its only been two days since it started happening to me.

Edit: At least they are doing something about it, use the javelin glitch! Get banned! WOO!!

Any of you guys use the FAL? That gun owns for regular TDM and FFA. FAL/Machine Pistol ftw.

I don't think I'd use it playing hardcore but its my new fav for just about everything else.

I like the FAL about as much as I did the G3 in CoD4. It is a good gun, but only in certain situations. If you get ran up on by any decent player, you're dead, but it is brutal if you can keep your distance and have a quick trigger finger. I have the same issue with it that I do the FAMAS and M16 in MW2, yes, it is extremely accurate, but so is the -fully automatic- ACR. When you need to do drop shots, fully automatic for the win. So in short, it's a beast gun, but the ACR makes is useless in my opinion.

I can't believe they didn't make the FAL 3 burst, like on Uncharted 2, and the FAMAS fully auto. If you're gonna pick only one rate of fire, those would be the most accurate portrayal of those weapons I'd imagine. Then again, I guess they were just fishin' for an upgrade on the G3.

Ah see I'm still a lowbie and haven't unlocked the ACR. I don't even recall using the ACR in the campaign though I'm sure I probably did at some point.

I must be playing against noobs cause I'm only just over a 1 k/d ratio atm and I'm starting to kick ass with the FAL. Anytime I hear somebody close to me I've got my machine pistol cleaning up. No reason to have fully automatic until someone can get close to me without me being aware of it really.

Certain maps aren't good for it though and I find myself using that silenced TAR you were talkin up before. It has served me well.
 
I feel the same way about the FAL as strid. The only problem with it really is when people get up in your face. And no you can't always hear them coming to switch weapons right quick. So using an acr, tap to snipe as if you had a FAL or M16's accuracy, and when them bitches come close, hold the trigger. Oh and you used the ACR a decent amount in campaign lol.

The one thing I like a lot about the M16 is even when people come close, you can hip fire a burst or two and normally hit them. And because it's burst you don't even need steady aim to do it well. It was the same with cod4.

(Of course you're playin nubs, you're on the ps3!!)

Nah you're probably solid, I didn't mean what I said like that. I completely forgot about the machine pistols even though my main squeeze right now is the PP2000... What I meant by a decent player is someone who knows how to drop shot -properly-, but we all have different trigger finger speeds so really, if it works for you it is as simple as that, it works. It's also a pain to use against Lightweight users for me. Overall I just had bad luck with the gun. I couldn't even get 1 shot headshot kills with it so after a few rounds I decided it'll be one of those weapons I wont ever touch again.

I decided, after sittin' at 70 for a while, to Prestige tonight. I miss my RAWKets (RPG-7), Claymores, and Danger Close so bad it hurts. Not havin' those just saps the comedy right out of the game. I wont be doin' that again.

I'm also sick to death of that damn launcher glitch. I got into a few rounds tonight where that was all the other team did. It seems IW or MS is bein' quick on the ball with it though. I reported everyone who did it and at least one of the players, once the entire team, lost connection to the round not even a few min. after. I was thinkin' they might have just quit but checkin' their status revealed them to be offline. That could have also been a coincidence but two of my idiot team mates decided to try it out and they got a nice little ban after usin' it for only most of one match.

As for the Care Package glitch, that has been something used for a long while. They should do somethin' about it as well. Nothin' like playin' CTF and havin' too deal with a scrub or two on the other end usin' it. Personally I think they need to take the damn thing completely out of the game. You shouldn't be rewarded a Pavelow, Chopper Gunner, AC-130, or EMP for a measly streak of 4.

I went 68-13 in a Demolition match on Afghan tonight and I know at least 25-30 of those kills came from an AC-130 and Chopper Gunner I got from Care Packages. That's just a tad bit stupid in my head. I normally do Predator, Harrier, Pavelow but since I prestiged I had to roll with Care Package for a while.

You know anaeran, I gave the FAL a second shot. Unlocked the silencer and holo sight (I've learned to stop judging a gun before unlocking the silencer). Once you get the recoil down on the FAL with the silencer it works wonders. I've been landing first place in all my games since I started using it. Both FFA and team deathmatch. Most the time when I get in close encounters I'll attempt to knife em, and when that doesn't work I'll die.. but it's not common enough to ruin the gun.

Even in close encounters, if you can trigger tap quick enough the FAL is remarkably accurate and pretty devastating dmg wise. In hardcore, the extra damage doesn't really help you but in any other mode the FAL is > a fully automatic weapon even up close if your aim is good imo.

Stick an ACOG scope on it with a silencer, coldblooded perk... in that snowy level you're untouchable.

are you nuts?! it does help, the FAL in hardcore is beast mode incarnate! One shot kills all day, i was just walking around tapping my trigger and firing one bullet per person and dropping them, it almost seemed as if what i was doing wasnt fair lol.

While the Jav glitch is retarded, I don't mind the care package one. Knifers are easy enough to spot comming usually, and while they can pop out of nowhere, using the care package precludes the tac knife, so if you stick together he'll knife you and your buddy should knock him off while he's waiting for animation to be over.

Yeah the G3 was the same way in MW hardcore. Was a nice ass weapon and a lot of people didn't really give it a chance. The FAL is great in both deathmatch and hardcore imo. I've kinda strayed from hardcore in this game though, I play it sometimes, but it lacks action. And the amount of camping that goes on really turns me off to it.
 
yeah camping annoys me, especially when its just so they can rack up kill streaks and try to drop a nuke, then i make it my personal mission to destroy them.
I dropped three nukes last night back to back, and one was on high rise, a very difficult map to go that long without dying.
I got my chopper gunner and got shot down needed about 4 more kills to the nuke.
So i waited a moment and saw no one, two guys on my team kept shouting "camp it out!!"
to which i replied "I cant! i cant just sit here, i get to antsy, i have to run out and kill, camping requires no skill, im gonna earn this!"
so the enemy drops a pavelow and im runnin the bottom of the map tryin to find someone, the pavelow keeps hittin me as i duck into the hall ways.
I get into the building and see two guys, drop em both.
I crouch in the corner to reload, i only have half a clip left.
I see a guy run by and i shoot him, i have one bullet left but dont realize it.
Another guy runs by, i shoot, nothin. He looks at me, i panic, accidentally tap the knife button and bam...nuke!
All i heard after it ended was the other team saying "where the hell did you camp to get a nuke?" and my whole team starts laughin "he didnt camp, we told him to but that guy ran out like rambo and beat a nuke out of your ass"
their whole team left lmao.
Everytime i drop a nuke, my heart is racing in those final few kills!
 
I bought this game a few days ago, and it feels like a waste of 60 bucks. I just can't get into the multiplayer. I guess I'm completely spoiled by battlefield games. Bad Company, a game that is older than this by years, is much better. COD online just feels like an arcade game compared to BC. It's much faster paced, tiny maps, AND campers. Seriously, if you're moving around a lot, you're dead. Majority of the time, I die by someone I never see.

This is less important to me, but the graphics are horrible and muddy looking compared to BC as well. I love BC maps, they're detailed, large, crisp, and beautiful. Oh well. I guess this game would be fun if I had never tried a Battlefield game.

It's because you're no good at the game. And I'm not just hating because you made fun of my game, but it's kinda true. People get frustrated when they suck and say it's a bad game. Instead of trying to get better and realize you CAN kill when sprinting around, that's bullshit. All I do is run around the whole game. But for those slow on reaction time, play BC cause its so big you don't have to worry about reacting fast.

I'm not that bad for my first couple matches that I ever played. Yeah not great, I wasn't great at BC at first either, new games take awhile to get used too. 7 kills-14 deaths, 2 kills, 6 deaths, and 14 kills-5 deaths isn't awful for my first 3 matches. Now if I had been playing a month and still sucked badly, then you calling me bad would make sense. No, I just think the game sucks compared to BC.

And btw, you did say I sucked because I hated on your game, because what you said made no sense without any evidence. Yeah I suck at making myself camp. Guess If i wanted an awesome kill-death ratio, I'll just camp. On the forums, everyone always says they move around and never camp (like you just said), but yet when I join a game, only very few are running around. Also, have you ever played Bad Company? In Gold Rush, when you're attacking the base/crates, then action can be as up close and personal as COD, therefore reaction time is the same. Why do fanboys of certain games get really pissed when someone else doesn't like their game, and them "claim that person just sucks at it" when a lot of the time, in reality that just isn't true. Sometimes, I know this might sound like a big shocker; people might not actually like a game you like, even if it's a very popular game like COD.

This is a forum, so I can state my opinion on the game. Their was no need to call someone out just because I didn't like your game. It's not like I expect you to like the games I like.

Btw, I'm not hating on you.

You come into a mw2 forum and talk bad about it, of course I'm going to defend it. In all the games I've ever played, none have been as good as cod. (specifically cod4 and mw2, 5 sucked). You just straight up say this game is awful. If I were to go on a thread about your game, I would tell you what I like about it, and what I dislike. I wouldn't bash your game.

Up to a 1.10 k/d baby!! TAR > all. final answer.
Click to expand...

I agree, after gettin' my ACR back the other night, I've already decided it was a mistake from not usin' the TAR much in my first run to ever think the ACR was better.

And for fun: BF:BC rapes MW2.
 
ive tried the tar, on my second prestige and i didnt like it compared to the ACR, whenever i see one i pick it up until i unlock it again.
Im currently sitting at a 1.65 ratio, ive moved up to 1.67 here and there, but always fall back to 1.65.
Btw, they patched the javelin and care package glitches today, now i can finally play again.
 
Up to 1.13 and climbing.

What about secondary weapons?

I use the .44 magnum like its my job now. I used to think it'd be slow and inaccurate but now I find myself pulling that bad boy out in some close encounters even with a full clip in my TAR. I'm pretty noobish/casual at fps games but putting 2-3 guys down with a TAR and then pulling out a magnum in a flash and dropping another = absolutely badass :D

What do you guys use?

ps: fuck people who can only get kills with grenade launchers.
 
Secondary weapons, its really up to the task at hand.
I have multiple classes for all different types of occasions.
If im sniping, its the Raffica or the PP2000 machine pistol.
The Raffica is like a hand held M16

anti air? Stinger or Javelin.

If im in for the quick run around and close quarters, its usually akimbo rangers or model 1887's. I suggest the models for maximum range, the rangers require more of a close quarters ordeal.

If your early levels or recently prestiged, just go for the first available shotgun as secondary and then switch to the second when its unlocked, works well.

Havent run the magnum yet tho, ill give it a go.

as for grenade launchers, if thats the ONLY way someone can get a kill, yeah they suck.
personally, i always have a grenade launcher equipped, and i dont run around with it out and wait to see somebody and fire, i use it in extreme conditions.

Say, im shooting at someone and i have to reload, i just switch to the launcher and drop em, or perhaps they ran behind something for cover, tube em.
UAV is up, you see a dot but you cant see exactly where in the grass they are laying down and you dont want to risk running over there and getting dropped, Tube em.
Someone really far away and you just dont think you can get enough bullets in em in time from the distance? tube em.

Playing an objective based game, someone is planting at B or stealing B and its kinda far? tube em.
There are plenty of useful reasons to have a tube. But those who just run around tubing the whole match, piss me off. And thus, they die quickly before they can even touch me.
