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

[quote name='BackInBlack']Anyone can jump in and have fun.[/QUOTE]
Pick a game and ask for help, if a jerk responds mute them. Most of the people I know prefer that over just stinking the game up and having no idea what your trying to do. I help people who ask questions, and get mad at people who just play clueless.
 
This double XP for the new maps is making me wish I still had some prestige levels to do lol. Got like 2000 with no challenges on a S&D yesterday
 
[quote name='RudyPants']It seems that the maps are hit and miss so far. Team deathmatch on Broadcast and Chinatown is pretty fun, but objective-based games are tough since I'm not familiar with the layout.

I'm sure that once we've played them to death this will change.

Creek is not fun, period. I really don't like like snipers in this game, so it's probably my problem, but it's not fun having everybody know where you are and you can't find anybody.[/QUOTE]

I basically agree with this, except for Chinatown. I had that map figured out the second time I played it and the S&D map I played with random people went excellent. However the HQ game on broadcast was absolute garbage as apparently everyone but me knew were they were.

I'm sure with experience everything will get better.

Also, I'm pretty torn with this whole double XP thing. I said I wasn't going to do another prestiege, but when I'm averaging 2000xp a game, I could get halfway through the next one by Sunday night...
 
So far I like Creek the best. It's awesome. But my fav map before the pack was overgrown, so I think I have a thing for woodsy outdoor maps.

Chinatown is awesome too, but I think it's gonna take awhile to figure out all the angles. It seems that no matter where you are, theres 5 different angles you can get shot from.

The TV station map is kinda meh, but it does have an awesome sniper house. I don't snipe, but I like sneaking over to that house for some easy knife kills.

I havent seen the Killhouse map at all yet.

I kinda wish I was still doing prestige, cos with the double XP, I could probably go up another whole level this weekend. But I'm not giving up all the work I've put in to getting a gold AK. =)
 
Stopping Prestige before 10th level = Weak. Man up and hit it.

Killhouse isn't in the playlist of the Variety Pack, only in Iron Cage or Tactical. It sucks cycling through the old maps in Tactical to get Killhouse. I believe iWard did a great job with the double xp playlists this weekend. Everyone is playing them, getting used to the maps and when next week comes around and they're implemented into the regular playlists everyone will have played them enough. Otherwise like with Killhouse, everyone keeps dropping Tactical trying to find it.
 
My biggest beef with Creek is like a few other maps 1 team spawns with dominate position. Sure it can be overcame but 2 teams with equal skill the team that gets the luck of the draw on spawns wins...

I actually had to do a Private Match to experience Killhouse. While it is reminiscent, as thor said, of a player-designed, basic Halo map, the design itself is good for small games. However, like Shipment, this is a map where grenades need to be disabled. I, unbeknownst to my pal, tested out throwing grenades at every angle, while stationary, and out of four tests, managed to kill him on three different occasions. Of course, he started doing the same, and I died twice out of his four hail storms.

You always pack 3x Grenades on Shipment. I always just chuck 3 grenades in the area where the enemies, equals bank.

So you're that guy on shipment? That's so irritating! :)

I wish that you couldn't chuck grenades 500 feet in the game (at least in the bigger maps). That's the game's biggest drawback IMO.

Yeah, ph33r, so you're that guy on Shipment? For shame!

Yes, screwkick. Thanks!

Winner Formula:
Search & Destroy

Plant bomb at least twice, at least one kill each round
= 1000points

If he's 'that guy' on shipment he must play 24hr a day with a controller in each hand. ;)



The reason I stopped doing prestige is because I went from being unmeployed and playing all I want, to working over 70 hours a week, and only really being able to play on weekends. Not only does playing less lead to slower progression, but I've lost alot of my mojo by not playing as much. I'm just not as good as when I was playing 6+ hours a day.

Plus I like the Umbrella Corp logo. ;)
 
soooooooooooooooooo not sure if anyone has noticed or mentioned it. but the layout of Chinatown is EXACTLY from a multiplayer map from COD2, one of the best maps too. I jsut realized this watching my roommate play. Brought back so many memories. I forgot the name of it though. lazy bastards ahaha, same map, different skin :rofl:

Uhh...it's Carentan. And Chinatown was always meant to be a remake of the map....
 
oh well, didnt know that. havent been giving a shit about duty for a while now since i got no time to playz, oh well. still find it funny though haha.
 
[quote name='RudyPants']And modest, too ;).[/quote]

It's a lot like asking Kobe Bryant "So, Kobe you just dropped 40+ points again, you're basically out-of-this-world, how do you do it?" "I'm just really fuckin' good".
 
[quote name='A Happy Panda']Uhh...it's Carentan. And Chinatown was always meant to be a remake of the map....[/quote]

Are you serious? That was like my favorite map in CoD2. I just sold CoD4 because it got boring and now we get an awesome map like Chinatown. I guess I'll get over it though. Even though it's a remake, it's not Carentan without my Kar-98k.
 
Man, I'm going to miss double XP weekend. I went from 54 to 27 next prestiege in a matter of like four hours of play. I'm hoping to make it to level 40 by the end of tomorrow night.
 
This is really getting me mad, i keep trying to download for the past 2 days not constantly but once in a while, and it keeps giving me the "Try again later Status Code:" error thing. ERR!!

I'm up from a 19 to 47 in a couple of days. Not too shabby.

If you guys don't know I would just like to let ya know how disruptive UAV Jammer can be. If yer losin', switch classes and mess them up. If a team is just getting good spawns on ya and not very organized it can change it all. Like in Creek. If you sneak through the caves and get the snipers on the other side it can change alot. I really like it a fair amount.

Thats exactly what i've done before.
My custom class slot 3 which i dubbed "Silent Death" is an M4 with silencer, UAV jammer, and dead silence. I love using that in certain maps like Backlot.:bouncy:

I just went into another prestige tho so i lost it :cry: ... for now at least.

my ghost class is called SNAKE. but Silent death is good too xD.

i use the exact same settings as you too :p
 
Well since we are comparing names.

Stealth Class "Silent Death"
M4 With silencer, uav jammer, and dead silence

Light Machine Gun Class "Heavy Rain"
M60 with grip and sleight of hand

Sniper class "Deadly Thunder"
50 cal and stopping power

Med to Long range class "M16 Legend"
M16 with ACOG and Stopping power
note: Reminds me of will smith's M4 ACOG in I am Legend, hence the name.

CQB sub class "Mini Me"
Uzi with red dot and stopping power


CQB Shotty class "BoomStick"
M1014 with red dot and juggernaut

Overkill class "Versatile"
50cal and M4

S&D Attacking "Detective"
M4 with silencer + Bomb Squad, Conditioning, stopping power
For use when i'm on Search and Destroy Attacking... Sneak in and pass those damn claymores

Too bad COD4 only has 5 at a time classes .. I think i had some more but i can't remember.
Some of my names are pretty lame but i like them.

i'll give this one to you, those a sweet names, mostly my classes are named after the gun. i have aa USB keyboard, so it takes 2 seconds to type in a name.

only, snake is the only one that has a "name" so to say.
 
The names I use are Assault, SMG, Shotgun, Assault2, and Custom Slot 5 (Which is where the sniper is but I dont feel like changin gthe name lol)

Very creative, I know

And as far as perks go I don't really care...as long as I have stopping power(or juggy) I own. But I usually take last stand also cause it gives me like 5 kills a game and often a free UAV.
 
I prefer extreme conditioning to Dead Silence, depends on the gametype I guess but in Headquarters rarely will someone hear you and turn around due to there team normally respawning around them making them think its there team

man, i am so envious, all my CAG friends on my list are amost all west Coasters, so none of them are on right now, and i always play better games when i'm with the CAG's.

if anyone wants to play some tactical or death match with me. just send me a friend request, stating that you are a CAG, otherwise i never know whats going on >.<

gamer tag is just Blood Covenent

Juggernaut!

As for class names, I used a mixture of references from George R.R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire and other bits of literature. :twoguns:

Jesus Christ. I have gone from a first prestige 45 on Friday to a second prestige 23 now, but a lot of the time I got stuck in random games with shitty teams. I thought I was making decent progress.
 
I was finally able to download the maps today. It seems that the problem may have been my switch in conjunction with the download. Because I took the switch out of the loop and just plugged my 360 directly into my DSL router and the download was able to complete. It took forever, but at least it didn't time out on me.

I just hope that I will be able to get some games in tonight.

lol don't worry I ONLY use it for shotgun (because its already pretty much a ohko) and I rarely use the shotty (mainly to get the challenge bonuses since they're easy). I use stopping power on everything else (Unless I play hardcore...then I just change it to w/e)
 
This double points, new maps, COD greatness has taken over my life this weekend. I've learned I still suck at the game, I've only been able to level up about 20 levels in 15 or so hours. But for those who have played with me (and this is the most important develop for me over this weekend) COD4 addiction has become more important than my addiction to whiping my own ass after I use the bathroom.
 
Man, I've had one red bar for a connection in every game I've played today. Its weird that It doesn't really look like I'm lagging, but my bullets weren't hitting anyone. I mean, I put a full M16 clip into a dudes chest and he laughed it off and killed me.

I still managed to have top score in most of the games I was playing oddly enough. Except for one game that I kept getting spawn killed due to lag and this 13 year old kid had to go on a rant about how much I sucked and that I was lagging too much. It was the first time I've ever recieved a post match "you suck/end your life" message. He also pronounced my name "heave heart". haha

You too!?!?!!

Is the double XP ending at 12PST tonight?? That way I can get 3 hours of gaming goodness in after work.
 
Loving the new maps so far...the double xp weekend and the maps have brought me back to the game.
I've just been leaning on cod4 and rockband and have no time for anything else.

Oddly, I haven't played a round with the new Kill House map as its not a part of the variety team deathmatch.
 
Yeah, picked the perfect weekend to go out of town and I really need the leveling up... How long is this double-points in effect again??? If it's done at midnight tonight then I'm royally screwed b/c I'm planning to get on around 10:30pm CST.
 
Agreed, I had a lot of trouble this morning with games losing connection, servers, etc. I hope its back to normal tonight.

The new maps are definitely worth it IMO. Of course, I would probably buy anything right now COD related. Just picked up COD 2 at a local store after I was so impressed with COD 4.

So wait, the double XP tonight is for everything, or the new maps only? Cuz I was under the impression it was only the new maps, and I played quite a bit of FFA this morning but maybe I didnt notice.

[quote name='greyzieoriental']what are some of CAGs opinions on the maps? worth the $10?[/quote]

I say yes.

THEREISNOBIASINMYOPINION

... ;)

In review, I think most of the maps feature little spawn bias, other than Creek. All maps, other than Killhouse, are beautiful. Creek and Broadcast are exceptionally huge maps. Chinatown is slightly smaller, but has a lot of places to go within the map. Killhouse, for its size, is well-designed and fun to play. So, again, totally worth the purchase. :D

It's only for the new maps. Can't let people who didn't buy the maps also get the reward. :lol:
