Is it really that bad? My 7 month old hasn't been sleeping well so I don't usually wear my headset because of spontaneous cries while I'm putting her back to sleep and I just play TDM so I haven't really listened to much talking. Is it worse than Gears? I always heard Gears wasn't even as bad as Halo 2.

Yea, I will have to do that... I thought of that right after I hit 'Submit'. I was just seeing if maybe someone knew right off the top of their head.

Yeah I usually don't even have my headset plugged in when I play COD4 online, usually no one talks anyway and if they do they are usually douche bags.
Headset gets plugged in when playing with CAGs, however.

The trash talk seems to always come in spurts for me. I'll have a whole night where no one will say anything, but the next night it'll be the singing 12 year old with the stoners yelling at him. The random idiot is tolerable, but as we all know, idiots are pack animals.
Last week I got called a camper because (apparently) I killed the same guy over and over when they kept rushing the spawn point our team was stuck at.

[quote name='xcoax']So, I just got done playing around an hour by myself. I went something like 2-8. My first match was headquarters, and I got dumped into a game in progress, put on a team losing 235-15 with seven minutes still to go. The winning team was just camping the headquarters, not trying to capture it, but just killing the crap out of us.
I quit out of that game to find another that wouldn't be a slaughterfest, and got put back into the same
ing game! I got two losses from one game! I just stayed the remainder and sniped the guys killing the people rushing the headquarters and promptly backed out to never play headquarters alone again.
I was playing with nothing but noobs this entire time. I switched over to domination and actually heard somone say "No dude, don't try to go get C. We just need B." and proceded to rush B for the rest of the game getting massacred for the rest of the game. Fools.[/QUOTE]
the domination thing only makes sense if you already have A and B... if you capture C then, they start randomly spawning and can really screw things up. that being said, if the other team had B and C, i say go for whatever is the easiest to capture (usually C since they rush B). now the great thing about having those idiots on your team that keep rushing B in this situation is that if you can get one other play to go C with you, you usually have a big opening with maybe 1 person defending and you can capture C pretty quick since the other team is so focused with the idiots at B.

I know that im a asshole when it comes to playing with people who dont know how to play the game, its not about skill level its about not playing the gametype your in. I normally offer to help them learn how to play Headquarters then start swearing at them due to me getting frustrated at some guy making me spawn across the map because he is teh sniper.

Headquarters is now my favorite mode. Not because of the real "Headquarters", but because almost 90% of people will run to the new headquarters. I love to just go around on my own and flank people and kill tons. Way more points to be won.

Not true at all, 5 points a kill or 5 points every 5 seconds holding the Headquarters. Need to do both to get maximum points...
Plus half the time flanking is the wrong thing to do when fighting over a headquarters, flanking when a team ahs the dominate spawn can switch spawns on your team and give the other team the advantage needed to capture...

Yeah, we only had A, and the other team had B & C. They were doing the lemming approach of "WE MUST HAS TEH B!" for like four minutes before I finally spoke up and said, dude go try C. Even if you're holding A & C for just a few seconds, thats long enough for the other team to decide 'hey, we need to have two flags to win this game,' meaning they'll send half of their group back to C or A to try and capture it, making B less heavily defended.
The worst thing that could happen would be that they get all three points and then we get random spawns, making flag capture easier as they're not going to know where we're coming from.

I love how they flushed out the map for Broadcast. By expanding the map to include a spacious outside, they basically retarded the plan of those who planned on just sniping. Chinatown looks like it will be a lot of fun. The map is very beautiful. I am really glad Creek isn't another Overgrown. It seems a lot less divided, and the underground cavern is a neat element. Killhouse looks like the new Shipment, but with more places for cover, which is good. This map pack seems like a winner. April 3 cannot come soon enough.

CoD 4: Game Of The Year Edition comes out 4/1...
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Game of the Year Edition gives gamers the chance to experience the intense cinematic action of the original game while expanding the online experience of 2007’s top-selling game by offering gamers a free token for the Variety Map Pack - four new multiplayer maps that will thrust gamers into a hot zone of combat across a variety of intense multiplayer locales. The Game of the Year Edition and Variety Map Pack will be available exclusively for the Xbox 360 for 21 days.
The Variety Map Pack takes players to:
• Creek - a wide-open village ravaged by combat where concealment is the difference between life and death.
• Broadcast - fight throughout an enemy communications building with confined corridors and wide-open parking lots.
• Chinatown - a foggy downtown district, lit only by a full moon and the neon glow of the city.
• Killhouse - featuring a desolate training warehouse filled with a variety of building mock-ups and soft and hard cover points.

Yes. You obviously cannot do both at the same time. However, that is what teammates are for. Almost all teammates will head for headquarters. While you (also getting points), will flank the team and kill the rest. As long as you are not camping, the sides will not swap. So, if you flank and kill, then keep running and killing in a huge circle, tides will not change. Of course, this method depends on your teammates holding the headquarters.
You are not supposed to get the whole team to flank. It's just you, and you alone. Granted, there are some people that do this too, but not enough for the sides to swap. In a map such as Countdown, the enemy spawns in either of the two warehouses and your friendlies spawn at the opposite warehouses. Now, if you flanked, let's hypothetically say the sides switch. You would still be running toward their side (like I said, a circle), and killing more. Moreover, the enemy would not have an advantage anyhow considering the headquarter is almost always being pelted by nades (especially in the middle). Plus, you can always just flank and then capture headquarters. That works too and is what I often do.
I'm pretty sure I speak for everyone when a new headquarter pops up, you do a reflex to click the "RUN" button towards the direction or closest path to the headquarters. Reading the enemy = easy pickings.

Definitely getting the new maps especially since I got some points back when CC did the B1G1 on accessories 20 and under.
I encountered more smack talk last night than usual, mostly cause us CAGs were killing the other guys. Dawned on me that when I play without a group I usually play mercenary TDM to avoid the old mismatched noncommunicating group vs the uberclan scenario and in MTDM hardly anyone uses a mic.

GODDDDDD! I've decided I cannot play this game during the day. I'm only going to play it at night with my fellow CAGs, since I cannot get anything resembling a decent team from matchmaking.
I just played Domination on Overgrown. My team (SAS) captured A and then went over to C and got that. But upon capturing C, they all just stayed there and sniped. The other team quickly got A, and no one other than me even tried to capture another flag. I ended up with like 273 XP and everyone in the lobby was like "How'd you get so many points!?!" Idiots.
