Modern Warfare 2 CAG Clan - Wednesday/Friday @ 7PST/10EST

I'll be on shortly, hopefully you two are on, Sky and Syn. If not I'll PM you with the details.

[quote name='jmbreci']Maybe it was a bit of alcohol, but are the match bonuses a fraction of what they used to be before this patch? While I didn't smoke it in Sabotage (think 6-3), I did get the plant & detonation....yet got < 400 for the match. I've noticed this same trend in domination.[/QUOTE]

When you Prestige and your levels are low, your match bonus is a reflection of your levels. So low level = low match bonus. I tend to play TDM, HC TDM, S&D, Demo or something that gets me a crap load of points early on. S&D will level you like crazy initially if you get a good team and some kills in.
 
sorry dont know if i should post this in this thread. but im offering a 3 month xbl gold card for anyone who will gameshare the new maps with me. if interested hit me up with a pm
 
[quote name='BoneMonkey80']quick question can I install modern warefare 2 to my ps3 hardrive and if so how?[/QUOTE]
I don't think there is a way to install mw2 to the hd. The map packs end up on the hd but nothing else except patches.
 
[quote name='Mad39er']Dude, you need to learn how to make use of the multi quote feature, triple posting like that deserves a prison sentence in Mexico.
[/QUOTE]

Nah, multi-quoting looks kinda weird IMO. I don't criticize anything about you, and its not like one post vs. three posts really makes that big of a difference.:bouncy:
 
I'll be on shortly, I'm just waiting for my puppy to come home from the vet. The combat rottie is getting fixed today, so I'm a lil anxious.
 
No wonder I've been getting a ton of points after each match. :rofl: I wonder if I should Prestige? I'm level 70, but I'm worried about not being able to milk enough points before the Double EX is turned off and being stuck at a low level with terrible equipment...and...*gasp* NO CLAYMORES!
 
[quote name='jmbreci']
One other thought that has me pondering - there was this 10th prestige person, level 5, who just kept cooking himself in a Dom match last night with his riot shield on his back. Any thoughts on that? The guy ended up something like 0-95 or something like that.....yet we still won the match with me playing & that handicap.[/QUOTE]

I just thought of something. Maybe he was trying to kill somebody with him with a cooked grenade. Maybe to get the title?
 
Good games tonight guys. I gotta be to work early tomorrow so sorry I bailed earlier. Not really crazy about ANY of the DLC map packs but oh well.
 
[quote name='Thekrakrabbit']I just thought of something. Maybe he was trying to kill somebody with him with a cooked grenade. Maybe to get the title?[/QUOTE]

Nah....the fact that he spun immediately after spawning with it....even I am not that stupid.

BTW - the connection DID suck last night. There was one game where the entire other team had 4 bar and everyone (but Mad) had 3 bar....that was rough. That last sabotage match was brutal as well. I counted at least 7 times that my screen showed me knifing (well, it showed me with my knife swinging) only to find myself dead from a gun shot. I'll leave out the comment about the guy coming around the corner I had a bead on....my screen showed 4 shots to his head....killcam showed 1 hitting him and him plugging me with about a half dozen. 20/40 looks bad....27/33 looks a bit better...not whining, it is just frustrating that they got a zillion dollars from us on MW2 and we have to put up with this crap.

Going to try one other thing - a new DOSCIS 3.0 cable modem, which is supposed to be here Friday. I've read it has cut down on latency....so I can only hope. Still, I did manage a couple of double & a nice triple....but far to few in between.

I like when I get a hitmarker with a knife. How is that even possible?
 
[quote name='pogipinoy27']screw you kaiser![/QUOTE]

What did I do now? I hope it was from the free for all that we had, that was fun, I actualy got top three for once. I guess having nokill on hiatus is a good thing.

from the FFA. How dare your harrier kill me while I try to steal your pave low. RUDE


you online now? Let's 3 star those last 3 stages you need.
 
Just when i start to have fun with this game some of the guys that play all the time just kill it.
Autoaim sniper quick scope check, knife me from 10 yards away check, have gay ass helicopters getting kills for you check, shotguns check, noobtubes check, homo ass campers check. Was cod 4 this homo?

I hate quick scope bs too, but usually there is another cheese way of payback, so run with commando and knife the cheeser from a mile away, or if you like the distance route, use the explosive grenade launcher. Or just make a running class (marathon, lightweight, commando) and flank the hell out of the other team. Or make a silent class (bling w heartbeat sensor and silencer, stopping power or cold blooded, ninja pro) and just sneak kill everyone on the map.

I agree there are a lot of cheap players out there, but usually you can find a way to out cheap them. Nothing better than to get them all pissed off because you can beat them at their own game.

I just got back into CoD4 last weekend and it is way less frustrating. I think I went positive 9 out of 10 matches, where as I rarely go positive in MW2. I think it's mostly due to the weaker killstreaks. But I don't know, it might just be me.

Quick scopers are kinda rare IMO, I rarely encounter such a breed. Anyway, its not as easy as it looks. To quick scope, the guy has to be like right in the center of the screen, otherwise you just miss. I tried to quickscope a game or two, but I can't do it. I just can't do it. One, I'm bad at it. Two, I can't get myself out of the hardscoping habit. And three, well, again, I'm really bad at it.

P.S. Sneak classes are hard to use sometimes because you are so much weaker then guys with Stopping Power. You really have to get half a clip into the guy before he turns around, and then you have a fighting chance. Otherwise, "flanking" is useless because you get gunned down so much quicker then you can gun them down.

Come on, there's a counter to pretty much everything.

Noobtubes (they aren't that rampant, and anyway most the people who use them suck with them). But if you need to take a good tuber on, a good sniper rifle or ability to Longshot people can be effective. 1 in every 500000 tubers can hit good sniper spots and tube upwards. Most can only tube downwards.

Shotguns, come on everyone knows range is the shotgun killer here. Granted sometimes you just can't avoid being in shotgun range, but the majority of the time you can avoid getting tagged by a shotgun at any reasonable range. Plus, most people don't even use shotguns, and the most popular one I see is the AA-12 or Striker, both of which have terrible range.

Helicopters...just use Cold Blooded or common sense (stay indoors!?). Not that bad really.

And campers...just blow their entire spot up. Campers only camp in one spot until they die, and they rarely move from there. Use a Marathon/Lightweight/Commando (or Ninja if they have HBS) combination to avoid the claymores they probably don't even have and stab them, or flash them and take them out. BTW, why do people complain about campers when they're so easy to take out most of the time, barring a couple select spots on a couple select maps.

P.S. Also, does the military run and gun? Nope...they camp. They sit in a bush for three days without moving waiting for something :rofl: You think military deaths are high now, imagine if they were running around into buildings with Akimbo Magnums. :twoguns:

I felt that CoD4 was easier for some reason then MW2. You could be right about the killstreaks, because most people didn't get the 7-kill helicopter and if they did it wasn't that strong.

I need the guy with the funny ears to be on again so I can record him bitching about others killing too much and him not getting a nuke.

Side note - going to try one thing tonight IF I get online...depends on the storms rolling through.
 
[quote name='nakanenui']Ground wars was great tonight, came up against some really good competition (to power level against cause they were sooooooo terrible).[/QUOTE]
Yeah but I guess we failed since we "couldn't hold 3 flags". (I don't know if you were there for that, but I was laughing my ass off.)
 
I can't remember who it was, I want to say iSeuss, but my god was that octuple (8) multi-kill with the predator missile was beyond awesome :D
 
What are your guys' thoughts on Carnival? I don't like it too much for CTF or Domination, I think the map has way too many spots where you can get caught from. Not enough eyes and claymores to cover yourself anywhere really.

BTW, I have another question. I wonder if FMJs on the ACR work? I had a silenced ACR on Trailer Park, and it was tearing people up in the trailers but when I had FMJ (non silenced) ACR, I never even hit anyone?

Click to expand...

Thanks for the shout out SynGamer! It was me iSeuss and it was pretty lucky but awesome none the less. Hopefully we can all get together and play again sometime!
 
hmmmm...simple cable modem swap improved DL speed by 6.5mb/sec and upload by almost 1.....waiting for new router as well.....stupid host advantage commando biotches...

I take that back....almost quadrupled download speed and almost doubled upload .....ping is the fun one...but must be tested later

Let me know, since we're at opposite ends we can tinker around with private matches to see how you ping up/respond.

I know going 1 vs 1 against me isn't fair but it's a pretty accurate gauge in reaction time for both of us if we switch between who is hosting.
 
I was thinking of joining up with you guys (is that OK? Is this an open clan, or invite only lol), but I have a question:

What do you guys do about playing with each other even though you're in different timezones? As in, Mad39er is in New York, but I'm in the southwest...how would that work out? Do guys on Pacific Time just play earlier if they want to play with guys on the other side of the country?

Just friend request mad39er and me, and we will invite you to the game/party. Most game nights are mon/wed/fri 6pm Pacific so adjust accordingly. Or just send a request any time you see one of the people in the thread is on or if you get an invite just accept it.
 
Have to test further.....seemed to be a bit better tonight.....OMG before I joined for the two matches with everyone....no pauses/lag/glitches with the online game tonight..just my tired eyes not focusing....got thrown into a match with a bunch of 13 year old boosters....I SO wanted to do a multi-toob kill and leave....I couldn't stand the voices enough to even get into the match.

Will try to get on tomorrow during the regular time and see if anything is improved.

Ever heard of mute? That thing is a Godsend to me, I rarely ever play with anyone without having the entire room muted.:applause:

Cool, sounds good. If I'm on around that time I'll be sure to send you guys an invite or accept yours'.

My hours vary depending on the season, Spring/Fall I'm around more often since I'm usually not working as much but Summer/Winter I'm usually out later. Either way we start later at night to reasonably accommodate the west coasters and it seems to coincide with my schedule for the most part. If random people are around earlier, we'll often just throw out invites and get the party started rather than wait around, game night or not.

We had a horrible set of hosts for most of our matches. I'm not really too sure why I started to lag during that one game of Demo unless I wasn't the host. Either way it was a bad network night for me.

Sometimes it is impossible to mute everybody before they send you into a murderous child-killing rage. You can't mute anybody extra after the sides are determined. 9 times out of 10 we mute the opposite team but 6 out of those 9 times, we're not able to mute them all in time because of the match making.
 
[quote name='Thekrakrabbit']Ever heard of mute? That thing is a Godsend to me, I rarely ever play with anyone without having the entire room muted.:applause:[/QUOTE]

Same here dude. I hate it when I'm playing an FFA on my own, with everyone muted, and some dick just comes in with a shitty-ass mic that sounds like he's freaking eating it. I wish people would get better mics, or at least turn their volume lower than 5. :bomb:

On that topic, I'm planning on picking a Logitech USB headset. My friend picked one up for like $20, and the quality is definitely a lot better than Bluetooth. Bluetooth is just pissing me off so much, I'm attempting to stay away from it now.

Also, I need to play with you guys tonight. I haven't been on in a while, because my TV broke, and my parents always hog the other TVs. But I'm picking up a free 32 inch TV in about a half hour thanks to Craigslist, so I'll be on tonight.

I almost had to pull out a Happy Gilmore quote about getting a glass of shut the h3ll up, but any time you can paraphrase George Costanza you should go for it.

The jerk store must have been calling when you wrote that OR you've not played too much multiplayer. As Mad alluded to, you cannot mute (a) after the sides are pick and (b) if you are blindly thrown into a match in progress. Hence I was stuck listening to a bunch of 13 year olds wanting me to boost. Actually, I probably should've played but I was really tired and their voices were irritating. If I would have been lv 45 with OMA, I probably would have had some fun scoring a bunch of multi's....though I could've played with scavenger...ah, hindsight.

I agree about the hosts last night, I just wasn't getting the "normal" 3-bar lag like I have been. It was 3 bar, but the game was a lot smoother most of the time....need to play more....hopefully tonight.
