Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare - Gen. Discussion & Info

Not to make this thread turn to a different direction but if anyone wants to play, send an invite to me (the preaux).

I need more chumps to ruin. I've got 3rd prestige, a 1.37 kill ratio, and recently went 27-0 in a game. :lol:

I don't see this game dying anytime soon. COD5 will roll around (with a diff. dev) and COD4 will still be spinning in my 360.
 
[quote name='mike.m']I just did my first prestige and finally decided to finish up all the achievements. Yes, I even beat Mile High Club on vet. :drool:[/quote]Congrats, I just finshed getting all 1,000 points as well. Although I don't even think Mile High Club was the hardest level on vet. At least that one was fun and short (time wise). There were some sections on Vet that were much more difficult, Safehouse for one and a few other sections.

I have now got 1,000/1,000 on CoD 2 and CoD4, whew it can be frustrating but worth it for the pride alone.

I don't think any of the levels before Mile High Club were nearly as hard on veteran. I used the video walkthroughs from these guys on youtube and even with the walkthrough, getting through Mile High Club is just infuriatingly frustrating and a lot of time dependent on luck.
 
I want 1000/1000 on CoD4 like I have on CoD2 but I am against treasure hunt type achievements. Why couldnt it be just beat the game on the hardest setting like 2 was
 
hey -bigc-, which ones are you missing? is it the intel? i had this same problem at first, but all i did was use a youtube video to help me find them after i beat the game on vet.

I like sniping!
 
[quote name='Flyersfan']Can't believe it hasn't been posted yet, but the patch is out.



Go get it now![/quote]I KNOW! They fixed all of my main isues with the game, so good work IF. I really like that they added 8 new spawn points to every map.

Now how long till we get some new maps?
 
[quote name='moojuice']Host Migration isn't exactly what we thought it would be. It still kicks you out of the game, but lobby stays intact.[/quote]Yeah, that's a bit lame.
 
[quote name='Mrbaseball2710']I played last night and it didn't tell me to download anything, do I have to manually dl the patch?[/QUOTE]



They just put it up this morning, it's the same as all other patches, if you're conntected to Xbox live it'll prompt you to DL it.
 
Thats so weird. I actually dreamed about playing COD4 last night and a patch being out that changed up a bunch of crap.

What's scary is I'm dreaming about playing COD4. haha

[quote name='GuilewasNK']Weapon sprint bug.

I thought there were a few times it seemed like I could sprint further than usual but I wasn't sure why.[/QUOTE]

It was only with the P90
 
Haha, autoaim. I always forget about that, didn't realize you could use it in MP till like a week ago. Too bad I can' t play it right now, RROD on my H3 xbox 360 just last week, sent it in yesterday.
 
Patch seems alright....but not great. I dont know I guess I was just expecting a little more.

I cant believe that didnt put in an option for turning off auto aim...which gets me killed 4 or 5 times a match.

I havent played COD4 in a little while but it seems like I had more problems than what they fixed. Will have to check though.
 
I have a question. Can people LAG on purpose? When I'm playing some people the move in a very jerky manner making them hard to hit. Sometimes I think it is on purpose because several people will be doing it and the have the same clan tag.

Autoaim?
 
actually, they can. I was in a 3v3 match where one guy would lag everyone and when everyone was "frozen" he would just shoot us since it showed us standing still on his screen.

So blatant, i wonder if the patch fixed that bug.

Aim-Assist, it's lame, you'll notice when you have 2 guys close together and you try to aim next to one and aim assist tries to pick the other one.

Yeah. There is nothing worse...nothing worse then lining up headshot but having another guy just run past.

The aim assist will always ALWAYS pick up the guy who is running by that will almost always get you killed.

That wasn't auto-aim, that was standby.
 
[quote name='zewone']That wasn't auto-aim, that was standby.[/QUOTE]

the first half of his post referred to standby, the last auto-aim.
 
Badly needs an option to turn off host migrating landing on you, as I've ended up the host in every game I've played today because my tubes are huge and when I decided to leave a game to be with a friend, everyone was sad.
 
New Kill Cams are cool. Can't really tell much about the ACOG, but I've seen other people doing really well with sniple rifles alone. Feels the same to me. =p

Now all we need are maps. =[
 
[quote name='GuilewasNK']Weapon sprint bug.

I noticed it when I used the P90. But I liked that glitch though, so I didnt have to choose Extreme Conditioning :p
 
I can't wait to try out the new features later today. It's about freaking time they released this patch. I feel like I want to blame Microsoft for their often-slow certification process, but at this point I'm just glad to have it.
 
[quote name='help1']Apparently they just got the thing back recently because it had major net code issues.,, so they might have to go through the certification again. If so, then your 360 WILL come back first![/QUOTE]

Holy hell, it's a tie! I got my XBOX back today and downloaded the update when I logged in.
 
the patch has some good features, quick muting is great, but i didnt really notice a difference with sniper rifles or the ACOG scope...lets hope for new maps soon
 
Everybody was running ACOGs on all the guns I picked up this afternoon. But I came in first on every one of the FFA maps I played (about 10 rounds) running a silenced MP5. So, the ACOG scope is better than it was, especially on the assault rifles, but people are becoming dependent on it from what I can tell.
 
I really like when the killcam follows now (especially grenades). It would be a lot cooler if Killcam showed the bullet coming out of a Sniper Rifle and hitting your head in close-up mode.
 
Lame, the host migration is garbage and the mute doesn't stick in the lobby(?), which is when I'd really have a use for it.

New kill cams are cool though.
 
Still can't use the R700 to save my life. The grenade killcam is absolutely awesome though. I didn't notice a difference in the ACOG, but I never used them before anyway.

I agree that the sniper bullet cam like in Stranglehold would be indeed awesome.
 
[quote name='Nealocus123']And the awful spawn points continue...

Maybe if they spent time updating these useless new kill cams =/[/quote]

The very first game that I played since downloading the update I go into a game that is almost over and spawn right in front of a guy who knifes me in the back.

Meh...getting really bored with this game.
 
I'm very disappointed.

Quick mute takes you to the dashboard? Why not make it as easy as Halo 3

Spawn points still awful

Still joining games on the losing team

Killcam is neat but useless. Hopeful the map pack will be better.
 
For me the quick mute silenced them for just the game, but didn't do it permanently. ACOG Scope seems 100% better, and sniper's better also.

If anyone hasn't got the FNG single-player test run below 20 seconds yet, there's an Inside XBox video that just dropped that shows you how to do it. 20 achievement points for that.
 
sniping is extremely easy now, i was a great sniper before, but now it feels ALMOST impossible to miss pretty much.

the host thing is still kind of crap, it seems like it is taking 10x longer just to get enough players in the room.

spawn system is still crap, it sucks being on 10-15 kill streaks just to have someone spawn right behind you and kill you.
 
Yeah spawning is still a problem, I spawned and 4 straight times I took a bullet to the head right away. I do feel the sniper is a whole lot better, I used to use the M21 due to the rapid fire and shoddy hit detection but I've been going like 15-2 with the R700 now so I feel the improvement.

[/QUOTE]

There's just no quick mute in the lobby, just in game.

In game all you have to do is press A on their name and it mutes them. But only for that match.

last night i was on an 11 kill streak and somebody spawned in the same room i was in, it was kinda funny though i killed him then a few seconds later he spawned right behind me...im a good sniper but i still cant do as good with the R700 as i can with the M40A3/Dragunov
