CoD: Modern Warfare 2 - Gen. Discussion & Info-New Map Pack out June 3 (1200MSP)

[quote name='intoxicated662']but you have nothing to discuss?[/QUOTE]You have a problem with me posting here? It's not like im spamming fanboy comments.

Also, do you want me to discuss about how the PS3 version got patched before the X360?

-----

You guys think IW will be doing any double XP week/ends?
 
Earlier this week I read on 402's twitter that they will do some, but they are completely spontaneous. I would imagine they will do one after all of the glitches are patched.
 
[quote name='intoxicated662']other than that this is for people who have the 360 version to discuss. ps3 users had the javelin glitch patched earlier than 360 users, lucky you. but you have nothing to discuss? hmm okay..hope they patch this quick and everything else or else it'll end up like gears of war 2 where alot of people quit playing it for awhile until after 5 updates..lol. it took 5 updates and triple xp to get people to play it again and it's still not completely fixed too.[/QUOTE]

What's wrong with posting in any thread you want to? So if I don't have the game on that version you're "not allowed" to post in that thread?
What are you the thread police? :p. But in all seriousness I check in both threads because sometimes you'll hear about something in 1 but
not the other that may be useful. Just sayin.........
 
Holy shit! I just played a FFA where 3 different people had back to back "Emergency Airdrops". There was so much stuff up in the air the whole time. You couldn't even hear anything.

Also, here's a few cool videos:

I have no problem with you posting here. I enjoy your comments ect. Just curious.
 
Patch live for the X360? I just downloaded it on the PS3.

I haven't unlocked the 1887's yet, so I can't check out the nerf yet.
 
[quote name='DarkNessBear']Yea... I've been clanless this entire time. Where the hell is the CAG clan?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I'd really like to join up too. I need some buddies to play with.

Wow! I just found my new favorite thing in MW2: 'Emergency Airdrop'.

That thing is a beast. 1 time I got 2 AC-130s, a harrier, & an UAV.
 
Its great if you have the space to get the crates dropped and retrieved before an enemy attacks you.

It sucks when you die waiting for it to come and it sucks when the one good crate lands on a building.
 
Why does it seem like I am the only one that will shoot down the fucking air support?

I am really sick of this game (mostly pub matches) because everyone who plays seems to be a hair shy of retarded. If I dare to not have a anti air class or the balls to actually fucking survive more than 3 seconds I have to watch my entire team get raped over and over by the same Harrier.

It seems that every time I play I am pigeon held into doing the exact same thing over and over. Its always the same people camping the same spots on every map, even on objective based games its the same thing.

The game is too predicable.
 
^
I dont get why people are afraid to switch classes or do they not know that or not have a class w/ a f'n AA secondary.

Yesterday i had 1 really exceptional game where i went 30-2, mainly because I got a carepackage that was a pavelow. Then my harrier massacred the other team. Think it was on Afghan...but like half the team was laughing because it was like 3minutes of a pavelow then harrier doing some work. doesn't make sense why someone doesn't think switch to cold blood or switch classes to a launcher.

To be honest if there is shit in the air...and i die, im switching. Hell its 200-400xp and I need all the xp i can get slowly grinding to 10th. Dunno why people find it so difficult to switch. Maybe they get soooo angry and mash x to respawn. I dunno people are stupid I guess.

My AA class
m4a1 red dot
stinger
marathon/coldblood/ninja
 
It's even worse before you get a stinger, that first launcher takes 2 shots to take down anything and you only get 1 to start with.
 
So I'm curious, what are everyone's 5 slot classes(or 6, 7, 8)? Plus might be helpful/informative for other CAG players.

SLOT 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...

Primary(& attachments):
Secondary(& attachments):
Equipment:
Special Grenade:
PERK 1:
PERK 2:
PERK 3:
Death Streak:

or to save space:

SLOT 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...

Primary(& attachments): Secondary(& attachments): Equipment: Special Grenade: PERK 1: PERK 2: PERK 3: Death Streak:

What do you mean they've had these spontaneous 3M XP matches for the fans ;)

You just have to play it smart, I see people all the time throwing out their care package right after they get 4 and die when their buddy come. I hold onto mine until I know its safe.

Things getting stuck though, sometimes unpredictable. You throw it in an area with some overhang because you dont want to get in the open, and then it just hangs off of a building. Largest thing I lost was the only EMP I've ever gotten from a care package.
 
Never thought I'd enjoy an online game as much as SF but I found one.. I just wish I could level up faster. I only have time to play like one hour per day. :(

Also.. what happens when you get the 25 kill nuke thing? Do you get any rewards?

Title, and if you work on it enough on your challenges, you get more stuff like XP. You might need to unlock it first though, forget how high it is before you can get it.

okay got some multiplayer (MTDM) in earlier. I went from lv 5 to lv18 and last time I played was the week of release.

some questions.

What did the update uh update? I did play some Spec Ops several weeks and there was an update (I guess it prompts it if you're signed on to LIVE)

I never realized how laggy games can get (and most of the time the lag is unnoticeable until you realize from the killcam:cry:). I even lag out of a game just to reconnect as if I had just joined. It seems a loss is given if you quit or lag out. Do other stats count such as kills, deaths, scores, challenges?

How are the maps picked? Is it a cycle or something? I usually play one match then leave the lobby and join a new one. Since I'm playing MTDM atm, it doesn't really matter (and I rather play different people each time to see how gamepay varies).

How the hell do you take down vehicles? I tried using the defualt launcher (I wait until I hear that beep) to shoot down a heli and some plane but it misses :headache:. And it seems some of the aircrafts kill me before I even fire the rocket (and the aircraft isn't really near me and is facing away according to the map).

I'm not that good score wise since I range from 600-1400 points a match (though MTDM only lasts 10min unless one team is stacked). What would be considered a failry average amount of points (depending on mae type I guess)?

I really want to improve my K/D (well up my score per match but kills gives the most). I had a k/d around 30% with maybe 10 games played. After I started playing agin today, my k/d is a bit under 50%. Atm I feel I do best with the "knifing" play style. I use the Scar and have the marthon, lightweight, and commando perks. I perfer the semtex frag. I use the flash bangs but might switch to the stuns. I don't really use a secondary (need to learn how to use rockets right). I usually have that default machine gun. I can't use that defualt shotty for anything. Im waiting to get a tac knife though. I need more perks until I branch off and use other classes (basically use SP, SoH, Steady Aim, plus the three I mentioned earlier for other "classes")


some tips would be great!
 
Holy shit! Where's my trophy for getting 3 AC-130s back-to-back-to-back from care packages (4 killstreak), in 1 game!

Does anyone know a faster way to unlock Cold-Blooded Pro? No matter how quick I change classes, someone usually shoots down air-support before I can, or the shot misses. Seems to be taking forever to make any progress.

There is a glitch were you can fire at crashing helicopter with an lmg (or any gun) and each bullet counts towards the challenge. Tough part is catching a helicopter spiraling down rather than exploding in mid-air though.

You can shoot down UAVs with Stingers, etc.
 
You can also shoot down a UAV or Counter UAV with a gun such as AR. Rarely anyone ever shoots UAV downs from what I can see. Air support varies, some will shoot down while others teams leave a chopper running around. I believe sentry guns go towards it too, you can knife them to disable or shoot from afar

Seriously wish I could be in your games. Nobody in any of my games bothers to shoot down air support AND they don't even equip cold blooded.
 
Hadn't ever been nuked (I have almost 30 hours into the game), then I had two straight games where it ended with a nuke from the same dude. Don't remember his name, but the clan was '2pro' or something. He went like 80-2 combined in the two games. Ricockulous. At least he was on my team.

Yeah, most of the time my team is on top of it, only occasionally are people careless.

Thanks for the replies, made a lot of progress. I prestiged once just since I never have before, but I'll definitely be happy when all my favorite weapons/perks are back how I like.

Came across a few bugs awhile ago:

  1. You become invulnerable for a .5 seconds after last/final stand is triggered.
  2. Claymores don't trigger on you when you're in last/final stand.
  3. You can't shoot through the plants ontop of that building on Favela.
  4. Semtex grenades will randomly not beep when thrown.
 
I have so many people pulling me in so many directions to play this game with them. I'm sorry I've been ignoring a lot of CAG invites because I'm already in groups with people from college, my brother, or random friends. I do love playing with you guys though. There's nothing worse than getting put in Team Deathmatch with people who are just horrible.
 
Rather play TDM with horrible players then any objective with them. It is frustrating being dominated while people hide and snipe. At least horrible TDM teams normally have a few people who just hide.
 
My favorite is when I get put into objective games with random people speaking foreign languages and don't realize it until the game has started, so I have no earthly idea why they are yelling sdawg at the top of their lungs and they have no idea what I'm saying (or at least act like they don't). The only time this actually works is when they speak Spanish and I can catch phrases and talk to them in the equivalent of kindergarten Spanish :)

Don't switch classes, roll with a launcher on your main class (at least until Cold Blooded Pro is unlocked).

If you remember to shoot at enemy UAV's, you should be shooting down 2-3 killstreaks per game minimum.

and like mentioned before you can shoot down uavs with rifles.
for the first time i was in a game yesterday and actually had people shooting down rewards before me sometimes. it was great.
 
Proof that Infinity Ward is garbage and microsoft allows crap on their systems. I personally know the author of this video and just got off the phone with him. He said he took the video with his iphone so that's why the shaking exists and he was just sitting there doing some work when he heard the game's "chipmunk" sounds and he looked over and saw this happening. He said that game never ended so his son just backed out.
