yeah don't do it unless you get bored not ranking up anymore

El Fangel 08-06-2010 10:35 AM

You go back to level 1, lose all weapons, all progress on challenges and all camos and attachments for your weapons.

Its really not worth it.

LoDownM 08-06-2010 10:43 AM

Um, you don't lose emblems FA

El Fangel 08-06-2010 10:46 AM

Re-reading that, there is something I meant to say besides emblems but I cant remember what it was. :(

Actually, think I meant weapons.

Requiem 08-06-2010 04:11 PM

Honestly, I found myself getting better at the game by prestiging. I would start to get stale using the same 'better' weapons/attachments for so long, so I'd prestige and make it all fresh again being forced to use other weapons. Then by the time I got to the better weapons, I'd be just a little bit better at the game.

Got bored of prestiging after a couple though. Dont even remember how many times I did it.. less than 5 I know.

Evil Vito 08-06-2010 04:11 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Woooo, was playing Ground War and got Domination on Derail. Ended up using my class with Cold Blooded and Ninja and just hid in the trees the whole match :o Finally got that Flawless challenge that I'd never get otherwise</font> :shifty:

D Mac 08-07-2010 12:39 AM

I am so fucking awesome at COD: World at War it's insane.

Way to be the best at last years model D-mac :)

Evil Vito 08-07-2010 03:56 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Been playing Demolition a bit because you get really huge point bonuses even if you lose, rank up quicker.

It's the most frustrating game ever though when there is only one spot left to take. The entire enemy team will simply camp around the bomb, usually with noob tubes. Not that I blame them, but it's pretty much insurmountable. Depending on the map.

Just finished a Demolition game on Terminal. Point A never got detonated once during the entire game. Went into overtime and unfortunately I was stuck on offense. I actually managed to plant the bomb like 3 times only for my retarded teammates to give me no support in defending it. And the one time they finally got their shit together near the end, the enemies wiped the floor with them and they all respawned far away from the target. Bomb was reset with like 2 seconds to go. :mad: Wound up with like 10 kills and 40 deaths, but still had the third highest score on the team due to constantly getting to the bomb. The two guys with higher scores than me were trying to rack up kills and nothing more.</font>

alvarado52 08-07-2010 05:29 PM

Thats the problem with the MW2 community, most of those asshole play Deathmatch on every game mode. Its frustrating as shit because, like you said, you end up just throwing your body into bullets in the name of winning, when it could be done SO much easier (and much less dying on your part) if the entire team participated and all tried for the goal.

When you do have a full squad, its crazy fun to smash the other team though. On Domination we held a team to 21 freakin' points one time when i had a full squad of buddies. We killed 'em.

Remember that night?

You, I, Roxer, Kalyx and Req all played against that group with the tag 50k?

Capped B on Favela with 4 seconds left and won by a single point?

Johnny McNasty 08-08-2010 07:29 AM

Hardcore Mosh Pit is my new favorite game mode. Been posting great scores on all game modes. Mostly due to people not knowing how to actually play anything other than team deathmatch, My team went 10-0 playing capture the flag on wasteland. We where basically running circles around the other team.

One thing that does suck is the no ricochet bullshit. I had the most depressing feeling ever while playing HC mosh pit, when I got a chopper gunner on afghan, and proceeded to accidently to kill two of my teammates right off the bat. Was forced to sit out for two or three mins, until my chopper gunner was out of the air.

I hate ricochet when I shoot a barrel and it chills for a little while then explodes when my teammate walks by. Or when a team mate runs into my line of fire.

Johnny McNasty 08-08-2010 04:25 PM

I seem to get team killed a lot more than average I've recently noticed. I'm usually super careful when playing hardcore. Will check with team before throwing grenades into bunkers, never use noob tubes, will wait out a shot if I think a team mate is in my way etc. I just wish I could say the same for my buddies that I play with. Assholes are always OMA spamming tubes carelessly, shooting me in the back, and shooting me when I'm hiding behind cover trying to get some kills, because my name doesn't show up(never mind the fact I'm facing towards where the enemy is flooding out).

Ahh I just wanted to get that rant off my chest. Still is a super fun game mode and I would be lying if I said I didn't kill a team mate every now and then while playing really cautious.

Savio 08-08-2010 08:02 PM

yeah but it sucks when a noob runs right in front you.

Do you play on xbox? On PS3 not many people use OMA.

El Fangel 08-08-2010 09:01 PM

I think I have retired. Xbox Live ran up, so I think I am done.

Played the demo. Not exactly into shooters as most people here are aware, but the demo's nice and intense.

I play on xbox. Yeah the OMA spamming is pretty ridiculous. I've recently upgraded my internet, so I'm now getting 4 bars most of the time, and that helps out a lot against noob tubers.

Evil Vito 08-09-2010 01:08 AM

<font color=goldenrod>You know how depending on the map and players, sometimes it's either wicked easy for both sides to score or nearly impossible for both sides to detonate both bombs? Feel like everytime I'm in a game like that, overtime sticks me on the less desirable side. :( Bastards.

Unlocked the Ranger tho. Fucking love that. Made me ditch the Stinger as my secondary weapon, which I obv only used for one-shot harrier/helicopter kills and the points that come with it</font>

The Mackem 08-09-2010 03:45 AM

I thought being taken out by sentry guns because I had a team mate behind me was bad enough but last night I got took out by a team mate's martyrdom.

El Fangel 08-09-2010 01:11 PM

Protip to everyone here.

In any gametype, do not stand in doorways.

The Mackem 08-09-2010 04:11 PM

Yeah right, you have an Earthquake killstreak, don't you?

Savio 08-10-2010 09:26 AM

I never seem to put sentry guns in good places

bigdaddysuperfreak 08-10-2010 09:32 AM

I havent really played since I started playing Battlefield Bad Company 2

#BROKEN Hasney 08-10-2010 05:11 PM

In a stroke of exceptionally bad luck for SNK, a glitch has been discovered that unlocks free access to the full versions of five of the publisher's XBLA games for users who already have the demos on their hard drives. To make it worse, the glitch occurs within Modern Warfare 2 (a game that bajillons of Xbox 360 owners already have) -- or its recent demo (which is freely available).

Somehow, running Modern Warfare 2 coincidentally fools the system into thinking it's authorized to temporarily unlock full versions of Garou: Mark of the Wolves, The King of Fighters '98 Ultimate Match, Metal Slug 3, Metal Slug XX, and Samurai Shodown II. Joystiq tested the exploit with Garou and KOF '98, and can verify that it works. For now, at least.

We're certain this issue will be patched by one of the three affected parties -- SNK Playmore, Activision, or Microsoft -- in the near future, now that it's known. In the meantime, just because you can get these games for free doesn't mean you aren't a major jerk for doing so.



Lol, go play free SNK games while you can. Means there might be people to play online for the rest of us.

El Fangel 08-10-2010 05:19 PM

I give it 2 months before they get around to patching it.

Any takers?

#BROKEN Hasney 08-10-2010 05:22 PM

Nah, SNK will patch their games before Activision do anything. They won't give a shit, they're not losing anything from it.

El Fangel 08-10-2010 05:24 PM

Doesnt the patch have to be approved by M$?

#BROKEN Hasney 08-10-2010 05:31 PM

Yeah, but MS will approve any SNK patch on this issue because it's losing MS marketplace monies as well.

Can't remember the name of it, but that Epic Games XBLA game had a glitch that let you complete the game in trial mode. Patched in a day.

El Fangel 08-10-2010 06:09 PM

Ah, if only they were that quick when the goddamn care package glitch was out.

Evil Vito 08-11-2010 02:52 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Nothing like entering a game in Terminal where I'm immediately caught in a ridiculous spawn trap :| the entire enemy team used claymores and just kept planting them in the room where everybody respawned. You would spawn, die, spawn, die, spawn, die. MW2 has the worst respawning of any game I've ever played.</font>

El Fangel 08-11-2010 03:22 PM

I whole heartingly agree with what Big Vito said.

Also, my cousin and I are starting up a clan, so looks like im heading back into the fray.

alvarado52 08-11-2010 04:13 PM

another name change?

El Fangel 08-11-2010 04:39 PM

Yeah, the one I am in now, i haven't played with ANY clan members in like a month or so.

Will likely just change it back to Joker582 when I get the M$ Points and use a clan tag.

If any of you guys want in, let me know.

Savio 08-11-2010 11:01 PM

was playing Hardcore HQ today and had 2 kills over deaths (20-18), Got frustrated and went 1-20 from that point on.

You two should go buy Bad Company 2 so I have someone to play that with instead of tards who don't cover people.

Holy shit, I just beat the storyline for this game. Fucking epic. Any idea if MW3 is going to come out

Yeah, they've been doing that since Call of Duty 4/5. Infinity Ward and Treyarch work on their games at almost the same to be able to release games at a consistent pace.

Evil Vito 08-23-2010 12:04 AM

<font color=goldenrod>I will always hate this game for forcing me to choose between Cold Blooded and Hardline</font>

LoDownM 08-23-2010 12:39 AM

Stopping Power and Danger Close are better choices.

alvarado52 08-23-2010 12:57 AM

hardline is lame...i hate relying on a magic number. Stopping power/DC make it easier to hit the streaks. Cold blooded is pretty valuable though, especially if you have a silencer on and ninja.

D Mac 08-23-2010 01:01 AM

Hardline makes it easy to get UAV. :shifty:

Evil Vito 08-23-2010 01:11 AM

<font color=goldenrod>I'm gonna leave Hardline on for now cause I get like a 10,000 point bonus after I get a few more streaks. Then I'll prolly use Stopping Power cause it fucks me off how often I'll be shooting a guy and he'll basically no-sell it and kill me with one shot.

Gotta use Cold Blooded Pro in Demolition tho. Absolutely clutch.</font>

Savio 08-23-2010 01:20 PM

If you play hardcore you do not need stopping power

El Fangel 08-23-2010 08:57 PM

Was Playing today and was kicking ass with the Barrett. We get back to the lobby, guy goes if we are playing against Joker again I'm backing out, fuck that.

Apparently I headshot him something like 15 times in 6 matches

Requiem 08-23-2010 09:04 PM

watched some insane video of this guy who I guess has been 'big' since the days of CoD2. Watched him absolutely raping in that game, followed by raping in MW2 with some absolutely ridiculous and consistent headshots with pretty much anything, but namely the intervention.

El Fangel 08-23-2010 10:12 PM

Yeah, there are some legit beasts out there. One tdm I was in this guy went 49-2. I was amazed as hell.

Requiem 08-24-2010 12:58 PM

Also, he is apparently the guy who 'coined' the 360 shot. Like, it is just his playstyle.. he will jump off ledges and shit, and do a 360 before shooting someone in the head, but he'll do it flawlessly. Fucking ridiculous.

alvarado52 08-24-2010 05:41 PM

wheres the video Req?

Requiem 08-24-2010 06:40 PM

The guy interviewing him practically sucks the guys cock, but he is legit good. The second part of the vid has MW2 gameplay, as he is getting ready to release a MW2 montage I guess. Other vid is MW1.

alvarado52 08-24-2010 08:19 PM

man, seeing that MW1 footage is tearing my eyes

El Fangel 08-25-2010 01:09 AM

I loved how in MW1 it was difficult to get a chopper during matches.

Evil Vito 08-25-2010 09:22 AM

<font color=goldenrod>Don't think I'm gonna dish out another 60 bucks on Black Ops unless they've fixed the spawning. More spawn points are needed, mainly for objective-based games. All too often now the enemy team will not even bother protecting the objectives in favor of trying to spawn trap. The points should be somewhat random too. You know spawning is predictable when the entire enemy team can form a wall around your spawn point and not once will the game spawn you elsewhere.

I don't mind the concept of killstreak rewards, but some of them obviously need to be nerfed. Rarely does anybody get a nuke nowadays without using the chopper gunner or AC130. Make it so that you can't use one of those and still get a nuke or something.</font>

Savio 08-25-2010 09:40 AM

I get nukes on bare bones.

El Fangel 08-25-2010 02:14 PM

The lack of a safe spawn system annoys me to no end.

I will spawn sometimes and I will watch the following killcam of the enemy literally looking right at me as I spawn.

It should spawn you a reasonable distance from all enemys and allies.

Shaggy 08-28-2010 05:57 PM

Has anyone from here been in a hacked game on the 360?

My cousin and I were playing last night when suddenly the phyics in the game were changed and we were glitching all through the level. When the game ended everyone in the games clantags were switched to FAG and everyone lost all their emblems and titles as well as all the challenges being reset. When you look at the guys profile who did it it mentions if you go to a website and fill out five surveys he will return it back to normal.

Anyone know about this? I want my shit back but I dont wanna fill those surveys out thinking that this may be some cheap way for him to get info.

El Fangel 08-28-2010 06:16 PM

That's pretty much right. Only thing they didn't say was you can play DLC you didn't buy with a jtagged 360.

That is all.

Johnny McNasty 08-29-2010 05:58 PM

I've been experimenting with thermals on assault rifles recently, and I've found a M4 with thermal is just lovely. It looks cool, and it is pretty accurate.

El Fangel 08-29-2010 07:45 PM

Its kinda hard to miss a huge glowing white blob in your crosshairs...

ever...

Requiem 08-29-2010 07:48 PM

Didn't realize there was an extra 'mission' so to speak. After you beat campaign, you can go to select mission, and The Museum is unlocked. You can ring the bell on each of the desks, and all the people come to life and start shooting at you. It is fucking insanely hard. Don't think you get anything for beating it (I haven't), but yeah.. was just kinda like "Oh.. hey.. this is cool.. WOAH HOLY @$%#$&%@*(&% *dead*"

El Fangel 08-29-2010 07:55 PM

Yeah, watched a video for that. Looks insane. Guy did it with a riot shield I think lol

Requiem 08-29-2010 07:57 PM

Saw a guy do it with a knife. The guy who did a bunch of other knifing vids in MW2 "OnlyUSEMEblade" or something like that. People asked him to, so he did it with a knife.

El Fangel 08-29-2010 08:25 PM

I think he was the same guy who did the knife only 25 in a row for nuke win.

Requiem 08-29-2010 08:31 PM

Probably.

Nah it can be hard at times. Cold Blooded makes them practically invisible. Plus some maps make it impossible to use the thermal.

Cold Blooded makes them appear normal.

Derail is the ONLY map it doesnt really work on...

alvarado52 08-30-2010 12:58 AM

Which is odd considering that's the one map it should work well on.

Johnny McNasty 08-30-2010 02:00 AM

I find it awkward to use on any of the snowy maps, and any other unusually bright maps(quarry). Plus when aiming at someone using cold blooded they appear more as shadows, due to the thermal making everything seem murky. Personally don't think its too much of an advantage.

Tom Guycott 08-30-2010 04:08 AM

I find thermal to be a challange to use as well.

Then again, I'm an ACOG nut. Which is just as well, 'cause I can't quick scope worth a damn and refuse to use the baby monitor unless I'm grabbing a downed weapon.
