Modern Warfare 2..

LOL, this is why I sold the game quickly before it was out for awhile and made most of my money back.

What's the problem with campers? You see them on the killcam and then go shoot them. I can never get more than 2-3 kills in one spot before I get paybacked.

My issue is more with the stupid crap like shooting someone and having cash fly out of them and those dumb wild west guns they put in there. Still fun, but holy gay.

You mean an 1800's double barreled shotgun? And how a guy can shoot me across the screen with akimbo pistols, but I can't hit him even though my acog scope is centered on his chest and I have the trigger held down? Ya, I like that part too..

the 1800s have already been gimped. As for your other issue you know what you see isint what the other guy sees right? If his connection is better than yours or his console is host he has a speed advantage over you regardless of what you see. Watch it in kill cam. You might have fired half a mag but in the final judgment you barely got off a shot

WaW is fun, but it takes even MORE bullets (than either MW) take someone down in normal Core mode.
play hardcore. much more mature players in HC. no little kids playing it like an arcade game. 1-2 bullets is all it takes every time. in all three of these games. no cheating with the minimap, unless UAV is EARNED. camping is realistic and you need to deal with it. i dont often camp myself, but i do have certain areas in most maps i like to hold down. either by myself or with others. but if the action is not there, i leave usually. in HC you have to take it slow. if you are looking for some one man rambo type of game, where you are supposed to go running into the infinite enemy hoards, then COD is not really for you.

Do you respawn in hc? I think they could make FFA much better if they would disable the chat. Then you don't have two guys who line up so you can use the front guy as a shield, and the rear guy just racks up kill streaks. This pisses me off more than camping. In certain maps, camping has it's place.

What really drives me is when you're running around a map for 10 minutes and you "see" two guys. But, when you try to kill them, you're sniped off by the other 6 camping. So, you walk around getting shot until you see another guy hunting and the two of you get sniped.

I'm obviously still playing it, but I've been at 44 for about a week. And it only took me about 3-4 days to get there.

It's becoming continuously harder to find games as well. And the game also jumps around(your guy warps around on his own) or it freezes when you're about to knife a guy, so he has another 5 seconds to be ready to blow you away.

Basically, it's gone downhill very very fast. If I had known it would have been like this, I wouldn't have dropped the 60 bucks to renew live for another year..

I've noticed better response going from a wireless connection (DLink Gaming) to a wired Cat6 cable.

This could be it. I have a pretty long run of cat 5(?). Would wireless be faster??

BTW this game totally caters to campers. You can't run across a map without getting picked off by someone sitting in a window. But I'll deal and still play it.


*Tmall - not to rain on you're parade, but what Free-for-all do you play that allows 25kills and a nuke? The match is won at 25.

The match is won at 30 or a score limit. The ones I play anyway. And with nukes, I've seen 35+ kills. That's why if I see somebody tag teaming, I shut down the console before the nuke hits. It's petty, but I'm fine with that.

I mean, I got better response going to a wired from a wireless (sorry that was clear as mud)
