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

For those who don't know, it's Summer in NYC. Heatwaves are awn til the break of dawn or until Saturday, whateva. I'm busy but when MW3 comes out, all bets are off, I even told my boss I'll be disappearing for a bit.
 
I got a new ps3, so i put all my games back in one by one to do the updates for them and then ended up playing a lil mw2. First match of FFA went well, i was doing 10-4, then out of nowhere, a bunch of rainbow text popped up on the screen saying there was a lobby starting in 4 seconds. I immediately quit the match, popped out the disc and just felt like wtf is wrong with kids these days.
 
Whats wrong with people is right, how can a 1st person shooter with aim assist as the default setting be the most popular shooter? Quick scoping with aim assisted snipers is so cool. I hardly play this game but i got my best killstreak yesterday, 17. I think i killed the whole other team in about 3 seconds at one point but the game is still garbage. I played 2 other games where a satelite guided missle killed me 3 seconds after joining the games. Whats wrong with developers these days.
 
[quote name='LordKefka06']So far every game that was on my radar has been a let down. I will be picking up MW3 hands down, but BF3 is still a temporary option.[/QUOTE]

I'm not really sure if it was you, but didn't you say you were disappointed in BLOPS? I mean, MW3 isn't "really" being made by IW, so I don't see why people have such high expectations of it. It's gonna be BLOPS2, basically.

I jumped on BLOPS about 2/3 days ago(friend let me borrow it so I could get Platinum, which I didn't do) and I was #1 on TD by just run and gunning, there was no sniping at all on any of the teams or people doing anything but run and gunning. I got bored quick.
 
I finished this game on veteran last night and the last few levels were very bland. When i was in the raft at the very end of the game i couldn't help but think of how EA's first 007 game on the 64 had a superior on rails mission where you were on skiis. That on rails mission in 007 was better than the whole single player and multiplayer portion of MW2 combined.
 
[quote name='willardhaven']Do you guys know why every round of CoD 4 on PSN has speed hacks and other craziness? I wonder if it's still playable on 360...[/QUOTE]

I noticed that as well. It's not every game, possible 1 out of every 10 games there's som spawn hackers or speed runners. Eh.

The game is still fun when playing with friends. By yourself, it gets pretty boring.

I didn't buy BlackOps. Kinda seemed over-the-top, yet the game sold millions of copies.
I'm getting it for the hype and Battlefield 3. They're both just so different yet good in their own ways. Worth buying/trying both.
 
I was curious about MW3 or BF3 at midnight launch, but with BF3 using online codes so you cant take your disc to a friends place and play online there, its going to be MW3 only. EA is too stupid to realize how many missed sales thats going to cause.

The new trailer does look great btw. You can now select your killstreak you want to use, no longer forced to use them in order. This will make UAV 100x more valuable so that you can use it first then use something like a harrier to get a lot more kills.
 
[quote name='langdon_alger']Is there a MW3 thread set up yet? just curious.

That Spec Ops Survival trailer they released today looks pretty neat.[/QUOTE]
I'll let somebody else set up the MW3 thread. I really tried to hop on and move things with the Black Ops thread but it's really clear from my time management and just a general kind of feel that I'd much prefer to have somebody else organize given how quickly I just gave up on the game.

Nubbles was great up until he started up WoW again, maybe he'll take up the reigns again. Hopefully they set up the game to make tournaments easier because I know we can scrap together a solid 4 man team on pretty much any occasion.

If you need a UAV up to know where people were in MW2, it's going to help. I found that knowing how spawning works was easier than having a UAV once you get to a certain skill level that separates you from the rest of the pack. UAVs are always welcome initially, once the maps are learned and common routes are established, a good killer won't need a UAV... it just takes time and dedication to reach that level of play if you aren't there. It's kind of how everybody hates Wasteland initially, then I got really good at it and learned to love it, which in turn makes it playable for us when you have somebody leveling the field and not everybody hating that map on your team.

Stop Right There You Heathen. Wasteland shall never be acknowledged as a map.

I will definitely be around for when MW3 drops. As to the thread; I might just end up reusing this 1, but it might be worth it to create a new 1, for the newcomers.

There are a few requirements though;

  1. No ATV's For The Mad Bomber.
  2. No Exploding Cars For NowLive's Flag Escorts.
  3. Snake To Finish It Up With Locals, And Come Back.
  4. Hito To Take A Break From School.
  5. Kaiser To Fix His Connection / NAT.
  6. Dykenom To Put Down The NubeTube.
  7. iSeuss To Take Therapy For His Predator Addiction.
  8. Nfs3freak To Take A Break From Socom.
  9. Rumaru To Confess & Give Up His Abducted Child.
  10. Syn/Hostile/Langdon/Oscar/: TBD
  11. And Most Importantly; Our Beloved Borris To Come Back.

Naw, I wasn't talking about a multiplayer thread (I already have just about all of the people I'd want to play with on my friends list).

I just meant the basic MW3 thread. Somewhere to post the link to the trailers and watch it fill up with 5,000 messages saying, "that's dope, can't wait for it to come out."
 
Yep definitely going to be around when this game drops. My semester seems light (yay for one class). Can't wait to start mw3 and see the publics go RAGE QUIT!!! (And see Mad run around like well you know Mad..... lol)

P.S. There better be my heart beat sensor for S&D haha
 
Was it the exploding cars or killing everyone on the team who wasn't already dead that was the problem?

We definitely need Borris back. I miss him. Game night was not quite the same without him.

I kinda wish there was Snowmobile fights though, that would have been awesome in MW2 multiplayer.
 
I have been contemplating the future relationship between COD and my money. I guess I will have to wait and see how you all like it before I plunk coinage down on this one. BO was such a crappy multiplayer game: too much hype, not enough substance. I guess I was expecting MW2 with better upgrades. Boy was I disappointed. I have money on BF3 right now, and have been playing BBC2 since I sold MW2.

My main concerns with MW3:
Developer not giving two shits about support/patching the game
Obvious bugs like exploding cars when landing on them...
Local Host or dedicated servers?

+1 on the no cheaters. I cant find much info on what MW3 has in store. My work network blocks anything game related, so I cant research. surprisingly CAG forums makes it through the filter, yay.
 
Nubbles and Snake, please get back to me. Nubbles, I texted but if you need a PM, I have no problem. Snake, sent you a PM.
 
WoW must be getting boring again? Do any of you guys have bad company 2? I know I keep asking but if you guys want to try that its pretty active, and no cheaters/hacks (that I know of).
 
just wanted to say hi and see wht you guys have been up to. i will be on there for sure when mw3 comes out. now if i can just find out which box my ps3 was packed in .

Hey man, how you doing? You still in Australia with the video game related job? Looking forward to seeing you around again.
 
[quote name='teknobeavr']no i am back now .. and i cant believe i got to work on one of the years really good games .[/QUOTE]
Welcome back then, we can start picking on little kids again in MW3 when it releases. Any stories from down under? I'm trying to remember who devs down there.
 
Hey technobeaver/toxic. You left MW2 about the right time (and bypassed the fail that was BLOPS multi). Everything went downhill with all the hackers and crap. Correlation, techno the hacker, lol. Lets get our group back together for MW3 madness.
 
the above poster got it right i did a whole mess of contract work. for la noire and what i did get in return nothing me and bunch of people got screwed out of credits in the game. that really sucked cause without a credit line in the game i really cant use that experience to leap frog into something else.

i have stories they are funny !. DLC Cereal .. (among the funnier ones).

i am on mw3 on nov. 8 . i just got to to round up a mic and im there. ready to harass more 12 yrs .
just trying to decide if i should get the hardened edition or not
 
Why is it that when i run into a trash bastard in mw2 with a modded controller, 100% of the time they have a mexican flag and/or named Mexi-something. WHY. I ran into lobby after lobby of mexican people with modded controllers tonight. I dont know if they think they're badass cheating or what. Cant wait for MW3 to report them and get them banned, you rarely ran into modded controller trash in BLOPS due to the reporting the people cheating. MW3 cannot get here fast enough.

In my experience, Hispanic players are the cheapest of the bunch. If it's not a whole team with Stopping Power it'll be something stupid like that. Puerto Ricans aren't much better, in fact they're a bit more annoying because they prefer to speak/yell in Spanish over open mics.

Yah, its pretty bad. I got my new shiny headphones, turtle beach px21's, and decided to try out mw2 to see how sound whoring is (its quite fun), and again, other then 1-2 matches, nothing but modded controller lobbies. One game, literally, i was the ONLY person playing without a modded controller. It just blows my mind. How do these guys think they are good if they have to cheat to win? Its just absurd. Im ready for Mw3, sound whoring it up for the first time. Im going to report the living crap out of every single person i see cheating.
 
since my socom cag clan is on "extended" hiatus, i'd like to roll with you guys on the cod savior that is mw3.

playerito = playerito
Experience: Advanced
Availablity: sporadic, can make it to clan nights
