MW2

i dont know if they are working on it now or its just majorly screwed up more.
But everytime i try to play domination i get thrown into team death match, ground war or whatever isnt domination.
Sometimes i get a domination match, other times its a boosting lobby.
Its gettin old.
 
Got my KD to 1.8, but fuck i lose too much joining random games, need more good dewds to play with.

They just made mention of any intent to deal with this a few hours ago... It has been what, 4 days until they even say anything about it? I can't help but feel Bungie/Capcom/Monolith would have cleared this up day 1. Hell, reversing the Javelin fix would have been better than messing up entire playlists. At least people could play the game then. I haven't played a match in a few days and its startin' to eat at me.

man what i would give if it was bungie handling this shit, they never leave you in the dark because they show how much they care about their games.
IW took what, a year to even give us a small ass map pack? With as much money as we helped them make?
I cant help but feel that MS is probly the reason IW is even doing anything about this, they probly get on their ass about it.

Remember how long it took them to release the ACOG update? Between the time they decided the ACOG wasn't working properly, the time they decided to patch it, and the patch hitting it was over half a year. Then, like they had been supporting the game like some miracle worker and working hard to fix its problems and what not, they announce they are no longer supporting CoD4. Ugh, things just killed over after the ACOG update. Things got so laggy I remember just puttin' the game down and never playin' it again.

Also, incoming on an unlimited ammo/no reload necessary glitch. Who needs to reload noob tubes? I got one tube with unlimited rounds! Works for things like the AC130, all normal guns (FAL will be automatic as will shotguns), etc., etc.

man i remember that acog crap too, fuckin IW.
and please say it aint so on that glitch...it hasnt even been two full months and this game is quickly falling apart.

Edit: Fuck, i just saw a video of that glitch. so far its not wide spread or even known yet on how it happens, ive read it may be a virus going around and if you get it, it causes this for every match you play as the host and spreads it to the other people.
I dont see how thats even likely though.
but dammit, it wont be long till this is what we see every damn day every damn game.

Edit Deuce: I know how its done now, hopefully that means it wont be AS wide spread but you need a Jtagged xbox to do it and the mod for the game and the patch. So if your in a room that has this going on, the host has a jtagged box. that also means, unless they get banned or something i dont see how they are gonna get rid of this...ala halo 2 anyone?

just found this out from IW forums

The infinite ammo "glitch" everybody keeps complaining about has turned out to be a virus, I just got done testing it on more than 10 consoles. It is NOT something people are purposefully doing. Once you play a game with infinite ammo, you become infected and every game YOU host from that point on will be infinite ammo, further infecting every person playing in your game, and so on and so forth.

If you don't believe me and you have experienced one of these infinite ammo games, try hosting a private match by yourself and give it a try. No "glitching" required.

They get the picture and are working on a fix, but unless any of you know how to contain and neutralize a virus that spreads to tens of thousands of new hosts per minute, every minute, round the clock, then chill out, get some fresh air, and try playing a bit later.

I take it by Console, he means PS3 and 360 versions as well as potentially PC?

Edit: In fact, link please?

I joined a game that had already been started. First thing I saw was my teammates launching infinite tubes up at the estate. Left the game immediately. I don't think I got "infected". But maybe I haven't been the host, who knows.

Unfortunately if you joined a game where it happens that is plenty enough. Speculation is though that if you even just dashboard and come back you have "cleansed" the problem on -your- machine (People have posted to have dashboarded after using the glitch and then coming back in MW2 and creating a private match. They found their private match was normal). **So I'd guess** there are actually very few catalyst machines out there, but what is keeping it running and wide spread is the popularity of the game, ironically enough. I doubt there is any given time were no one is online and by this time there are probably so many "infected" that it is plenty enough to keep the current mass "infected" as well.

I'm kind of worried about the measures they are goin' to have to use to fix these recent problems. The infinite ammo thing just doesn't seem like it'll end well. Lucky for me I haven't even booted up the game since the initial day of the PM glitch so I haven't had a single run in with the infinite ammo glitch. Just to be safe, I'm not even goin' to be playin' the game until they fix it sometime in 2011 just before they release MW3 without extensive outside testing and declare IWNet2 the god of MP system processing.

i heard about it being a virus right after i read about it here, but i was in one of those rooms for like an hour and went on to play legit games with no issue or resetting anything.
It seriously is fun to play like that, for about 20 minutes, then its just annoying.
 
Looks like IW is goin' to throw us a bone with the update to address all of this.

Straight from the IW site:

IW said:
Modern Warfare 2 Update in Test now!

Includes: 1887s Balanced. Public "private" Match fix. Infinite Ammo fix. Prestige Hack on PS3 fix. Texture Hack on PC fix (eliminates any edits to IWD files also).

Full patch notes for all previous and current patches will be added shortly. Stay Tuned for link.

Get raped 1887s, get raped.
 
Nice, i hate those and the fuckin rangers. Also I played like 4-5 games earlier today, didnt have any problems.
 
1887's were a lot of fun lol, despite them being a little ridiculous.
 
1887s were honestly the best shotgun representative in any mp game to date. The dmg and range is just more realistic then other games where shotguns have a 5 foot range.

The range of the guns is not the main problem, though that is the problem IW will address.. The issue in this game is the weapon preference system. If you are close range and fire 5 shots into someone with an AR and just before they die the enemy lets off a shotgun round he wins hands down in MW2. Add that system to the 1887s medium range in the game and it causes people to bitch about unbelievable shots and incredible players borderline cheating with the 1887s.

The weapon preference system is just as strong as the host advantage system in this game. None of this stuff was in CoD4;;

EDIT: Btw this game is broken. lol.

EDIT 2: How can you be mad at anyone using dual Rangers lol? That shit takes skills.

Shit, if you really think so I'd blow your fuckin' top with my M1014 and Striker set-ups. I think Akimbo shotguns are stupid, unless you're usin' 1887s. The reason 1887s make it worthwhile is because they can cover the ENTIRE crosshair section when fired together and then pair that with their range... massive ownage. Regardless though, it only takes one shotgun unless your aim is so bad you have to beg the fat woman to sit still for you.

That aside though, I agree with your take on the 1887s. They are the best representation of any shotgun in -this- game. I wont say any game because in Quantum of Solace you could snipe with the damn things, even with a silencer on them. I think that is part of why they are "fixing" them. In QoS there was no reason to use any other gun, ever. It turned from a should be tactical style R6V game to the complete opposite. However, there was only one other fix they could have done to "fix" the 1887s. That would to have been to bring all the other shotguns up to scale. Either one is a valid fix but the latter breaks what little tacitness (I guess that works?) the game has. The argument that the 1887s are fine is based on a game world set to scale with real life, however, the majority of the maps on MW2 are not scaled properly to make them a worthwhile fit as is. Even the Sniper Rifles loose a lot of velocity at -should be- fine distances, same with ARs, every gun, except the 1887 as its scale is off compared to the rest of the games arsenal (grenades excluded I think IW thinks all soldiers are fuckin' Center Fielders).
