How the hell did the heartbeat sensor make it into the game when IW themselves said campers ruin the game...

I've made a habit of going back and killing campers that kill me. Got to love that Revenge kill XP bonus.

Heartbeat sensor doesn't give 360 coverage, so it's not like it makes you all seeing.

I messed with the heartbeat sensor for kicks and found it detracts from battle more often than help.

Using riot shield a lot. I don't get a ton of kills with it, but it's a bunch of fun. Also getting pretty handy with the throwing knife because of it...

Ya got like 11 kills with the Riot Shield one time. Had a 5 kill streak lol

Whoa something weird is going on with the match making right now. Just finished playing a free for all with 18 people in it on terminal. To say it was chaotic would be putting it lightly. Also played a 9 on 9 search and destroy after that, and then a hardcore ground war. Kinda of liked the massive free for all and the hardcore ground war.

Never use it for camping just run around masacaring everyone with it.

I use for sneaking around and getting people in FFA. Doesn't help much when they re-spawn right behind you. It helps to weed out campers.

Played Domination on Rust last night. Game never ended. Had about 300 kills before I had to leave. I guess someone modded the map or whatever. It was fun as hell for the first 2 1/2 hours.

Was it Ranked?

Found myself in a 9v9 Hardcore TD this weekend.

Must be something added with the patch.

Something I find kinda hateful is when you put a silencer on a sniper, it takes two long headshots with stopping power to bring someone down.

This sort of counteracts the stealth you want as you give up cold-blooded to use stopping power...

So shoot them twice. Not condoning two headshots to kill but at least your stealth isn't compromised.

That must look and feel badass.

Akimbo shotguns need to be taken out in the next patch, stupidly powerful.

My bro runs around with akimbo Rangers. I told him that was overkill. He didn't care.

Akimbo's pretty fun though. I use akimbo P90s for my War Machine class (with Rapid Fire and hip fire accuracy perks on top of that).

Ready for the new maps. still

Spring, maybe.

Kinda hoping they'll have one based on the Gulag. Prison level, with outside as well as inside.

I like that residential neighborhood from that Spec-Op mission.

Some cunt on Rust had like a 45-4 record, prick was running around with Scavenger, Dual 1887's and a Riot Shield on his back :mad:

From what I've experienced the Riot Shield on the back does absolutely nothing

It works, just not on the level it does when in use.

Yeah, it basically helps a little, not a lot.

On Wasteland, I was like 4-19-7 with it.

The fucking truth. Shit is ridiculous. It's insanely accurate from even 40 feet away.

They also need to fix that one perk (Commando?) that lets you stab farther. I can deal with suddenly being closed in on from 6 feet away, but if you're gonna do it then show it or give them the sword it seems like. When someone has it and uses it they never really close in, they're kinda just there and then you're dead.

They definitely did a terrible job balancing this game.

I know when I create games, the first thing I do is give the people double shotguns that are incredibly accurate and kill in one hit.

Think someone has been naughty and figured out a way to really fuck with this, keep getting put into games with unlimited ammo and no reload times. Everyone just holding shoot and sending a stream of grenade launchers across the map. All kills on it worth 500 XP aswell instead of 50 or whatever.

December 15, 2009 - The latest 1.06 update for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has fixed some of the title's major glitches while creating several new ones. Are they worse than the dreaded 'javelin' glitch?

A new private match glitch allows players to join matches they're not supposed to. Community man Robert Bowling said Infinity Ward is aware of this problem and plans to offer a fix soon.

"Update on the matchmaking glitch that has players joining hacked Private Matches with custom rule sets when attempting to search for Public games; we're aware and currently working on a fix. I'll keep you posted on it's progress," Bowling wrote on the official forums.

Another new glitch that crept up is a new server exploit, allowing matches to be played with unlimited ammo with no weapon reload.

What do you want Infinity Ward to fix?

Man, mostn epic match I have ever had last night

Teammate 1 - 27-1-1
Teammate 2 - 25-0-0
Joker 582 - 14-3-1
Teammate 3 - 5-0-4
Teammare 4 - 3-1-1
Teammate 5 - 2-0-0

Thats right, final score was 7500-1100, I got a harrier strike, top guy had an AC130 and second had a Pavelow :)

Crazy good memory

I looked at that score just now, scrolled down, and I can't remember one number.

Very impressive Fallen Angel.

Was driving home from school 20 min ago, and I looked in the sky and saw a plane turning. I immediately thought of a UAV. It was like the perfect distance away and looked just like on the game. :(

when u done w/ school?

Confirmed they'll be fixing the akimbo 1887s in a patch

We were getting raped by that today.

I saw a bird flying today when I was driving and I wanted to take out the stinger and shoot it down.

Also how can you tell the difference between your UAV and the enemy UAV

I shoot them down everytime a enemy UAV is announced. I've never shot down one of my own, I don't think you can shoot down your own, just like 'Copters and such.

This is going to sound so noobish, but how do you even tell what they look like?

UAVs are high up in the air. Very high. Like... in space.

How to shoot them down then? Normally my gun is pointed at head level.

Gonna tell you a trade secret only the COD pros know, Icebox. By using the right analog stick, you can actually change where you're looking in the game.

Use it while you can. This game breaker is sure to be gone in the next patch.

Generally, you'll hear the announcement, then you just take out your stinger and shoot them down.

My god, I know how to look up, just when I hear the annoucement, I do look up and dont see anything so I keep shooting.

You've gotta look a bit, sometimes. They fly around in a big circle, so sometimes you'll have to wait a bit before shooting them down.

They fly like the AC130's only alot closer.

Ah, I doubt they move that fast though, thanks dudes.

I went for a little without using launchers when I was busy trying machine pistols and the shottys and the like, but I always pack the Stinger in my bread and butter class. Gets you lots of points, and really helps out your team.

I'm not complaining, I'm just stating the truth.

It's a little of both. :shifty:

It is both. Faggot.

Don't think the range is that ridiculous on the 1887's. I say take about ten feet away from it and it is about equal to the spas and the masterkey shottys. I just hope they don't make them completely useless when they fix them, as I love running around with those things feeling like a badass cowboy.

Also loving the glitched ground war free for all on rust. It is like double exp with the amount of kills and challenges you get done. Wanna see something crazy try to find one where they have got it set up for unlimited ammo as well and wait for someone to get the AC130. It is insane.

Hit level 65 and still have never flown an AC130 in an online match. :(

Had my first AC130 and chopper gunner last night, both from my first emergency airdrop, and I'm a Level 62. Pretty awesome. Why am I so terrible at killstreaks? :'(

I get kills no problem, I'm just so impatient that I run around constantly. So even if I get 20 or 30 kills, my deaths are usually not far off

My K/D ratio lately has been pretty good but I don't really get killstreaks over 5-6 either. I win alot of FFA games just by getting to 30 kills with maybe 10-20 deaths, but never with a massive killstreak. Highest ever is 12 and I got that ages ago.

I have got AC130s and chopper gunners from care packages. Got a chopper gunner on Terminal once in TD, it was great. All these people were running around trying to hide inside but I was shooting them through the ceiling. I could see some trying to get to me just outside the entrance but I was just picking them off.

Highest killstreak was 11. It was zen.

I get the occasional 7 and then get a Harrier call. Unfortunately I always seem to die before I get the Harriers in or some cunt will shoot my Harrier down. If I could time that right I could probably get a high killstreak and maybe get a Pave Low then to bring it up really high.

FFA is too haphazard I think to get big streaks. Someone re-spawning right behind me is one of the most annoying things in the world.

I find that you have to be a little selfish to get decent killstreaks, IMO.

I got 16 in COD4 once. Don't understand how people get 25. Can you get a nuke from an airdrop

Nah has to come from a killsteak.

I can't even get an AC in a care package.

I seem to predominantly get either ammo, UAV, or a precision airstrike from care packages. Never got an EMP, though I've seen them in there. Never seem to get the Stealth :-\

I got an EMP from a package 1 time I think.

I hate getting ammo, since I almost always use scavenger.

Yeah I usually just leave it and wait for the enemy to try to come hijack it.

In all I have everything unlocked but the EMP and nuke.

My 3 I usually just pick UAV, Care Package and Predator Missile. Sometimes a Chopper once in a while. Something manageable.

Was playing earlier and, either the harrier can shoot down the helicopter for the chopper gunner, or my harrier and the helicopter crashed into each other. Was killing someone and was like wtf, how'd I kill the chopper.

Was playing yesterday and some guy got a chopper gunner. Moments later I picked up an AC130 from a care package. Better believe my first order of business was using the AC130's cannon to take out that gunner. So satisfying. Chopper gunner is the only thing in the game I'd say is in need of nerfing.

Totally knifed RoXer by mistake. He scared me.

When I was playing Hardcore TDM with Roxer and G the other day I shield bashed G by mistake :$

There's no mistaking killing G ever.

Man, I got cussed out at the end of a match one time for dropping my Predator Missle on the the top of the enemies Pavelow, he was steaming mad.

Also, best setup I have so far is

Care Package, Sentry Gun, Harrier Strike

That is something at 4-5-7 which is reasonable as thats what the rewards were similar to in COD4.

Also, hardline makes it 3-4-6 and I once got an AC130 from my care package, a sentry gun in a window along the main stretch and a harrier strike, man that was amazing, finished the match like 35-?-7

Also, the Akimbo shotguns never seem to be as accurate for me.

On a sidenote, there is a sort of glitch on derail, in the back of the warehouse/office there is stairs that go down, if you stand on the rails and drop a claymore, it falls into the corner but as soon as someone runs into the room the claymores range extends out to them, fucking died so many times from it.

Ran into a glitch, I guess, in the matchmaking. Was doing a Merc TDM, host left, new host wasn't found. So I go to find another game in Merc TDM, and it pops up 18/18 for the player count. At first I was like, oh please let this be true. But when that lobby closed after about an hour of playing, next one was back to 12 players :( Was loads of fun. Best games, k/d wise, i've had in weeks.

Yeah, had that the other night.

Rust was beyond insanity...

Prestiged last night, basically on a whim. Miss my ACR :(

And you call me an idiot.

Finally got an AC in a care package. Got shot down after about 4 kills tho.

I got an AC130 on Highrise, I got killed while waiting for it and died like 5 times making sure the enemie didnt get it.

Loving the care package right now, got 2 chopper gunners and an AC130 today from it.

Thinking about maybe adding the emergency air drop. Kinda miss UAVs though.

I've finally been nuked - twice. Two guys working together in an FFA managed to get in 2 out of the 4 games I was in with them. Kept using tactical insertions to get back to their camping spots, which was bloody annoying.

Yeah. Frequently.

The FAL is a badass gun. Don't know where all the hate came from.

I'll probably do it when the new maps come out.

Probably due to the lack of rapid fire. It can be quite effective once you get used to it though.

1887's are getting nerfed. Thank the lord almighty.
