MW2 is still better.

MW2 is so far the best game in the franchise, even though it had the flawed OMA-perk everybody knows it. BLOPS is just a nerfed version of MW2 with a lot less variation to the weapons and poor diversity to the gameplay in comparison.

Even in the already nerfed game called Black Ops, you can choose even more nerfed gameplay where they have taken out elements that are too hard to handle for the not so experienced player and calls it "Competative playlist" to elude from the fact it is Black ops for those less skilled.

It is also true more players are utilizing Cold Blooded+Ninja in MW2. I have gone with a few stealth classes ever since CoD4 (or MW1 if you like). Suddenly someone decides that this is to hard to handle in the latest MW-franchise that is Black Ops and creates yet more playlists where you can not go stealth, taking away diversity from the game.

Luckily from the looks of it MW3 have kept explosives intact even though you can no longer buff them with a perk. Changed the streak system and even introduced some new elements.

Now, if you find it too hard to play the game because of say the "Bouncing Bettys", just please do not buy MW3 and come on to the boards to whine. Battlefield 3 is a strong contender and may be for you instead.

Re: I use SC to piss people off

It was a long time since sombody even cared about who has SC or not. I always revive but I do not take any detours to do it.

Actually there are so many people caught that console banning has been a huge problem wordwide for retailers of used games&consoles, I think they also have trouble keeping up with the reports vs bans. Some get heir ban weeks later when their "crime" is often forgotten to the persons confusion. There were lots of threds in here from ppl beeing banned until the moderators stopped them.

My favouite episode is "The Marine Biologist".
The creator and writer of most episodes of Seinfeld "Larry David" is now in on his 8:th seson now of Curb your Enthusiasm on HBO. Since I live in Sweden I have to download the new episode every week, but I can at least do so legally in my country as long as it is for personal use.

Re: Could not steer my gunship ???

Yeah well, IÂ´ll go back to Dogs, Choppergunner and Blackbird (one plane in the KS is enough). I would not give it away if it was given to me in a carepackage though. I had CP on yesterday and got two Choppergunners in a row without re-rolling them and they at least work as they should. I miss having to combat the dangers of the sky though like you sometimes had to in MW2. More players would equip anti-air support if this was the case instead of dual Pythons.

Re: Map Pack 4 details - Retaliation

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 01 Aug 2011 08:03:18 GMT

A fourth map pack was in the making for World @ War but ended up cancelled since it beeing so close to the rls of MW2, if the rls is October for PS3 and PC my guess is they will not sell remotley as well as the first 3 packs no matter how good the maps are. There is no way they can get players to hang onto BLOPS with both BF3 and MW3 out in november. Those displeased with MW3 will go back to CoD4 and MW2 as usual.

Could not steer my gunship ???

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 01 Aug 2011 07:49:18 GMT

I got a Gunship and since I knew non of the players on the other team was carrying either a Strela or a LAW I was thinking IÂ´d really go to town with this one starting out with launcing two missiles at their spawn, then I notice I have no control of the Gunship whatsoever. I have read that this had happened to other players but not seen any more threads on the subject since I know this actually was a problem that was patched. I just flew around and could not do anything but shoot into the air.
A few games later I got another and it worked as it should but then I got shot down which was to be expected.

Anyone else got this bug latley though?

You know there is a mute button right? A few of the funniest moments during online play I have heard from the mics of strangers though, kids who gets an earful from parents becuase of their languge etc have made lobbies burst out in laughter.

While playing the new map-pack a female player let out a 20 second non stop cursing after beeing shot just before getting dogs.
Mom in background: -" If you are on the phone with that horrible Eric fellow, you just keep going love!"
Girl: "No, I am playing a game mom."

:P

Re: Help with G11

It is one of the few I use Hardened on, with the G11 the bullets slams through most surfaces when I slap it on.

Why do you end each one of your condescending posts with a "~RUGGED SAVIOR"? You never used to do that.

For one you are way waaay off topic, and second he is one of the few on this forum who actually have some common sense imo.

IW gave the classic maps graphical updates and fixed bugs which were present in COD4. They didn't just copy and paste.

Very true, plus they opened up all the spots previously used by campers, I liked the job they did and would gladly have bought say a "classic map pack" for Modern Warfare 2. I was surprised at all the complaints since it originally was the community asking for old maps.

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 29 Jul 2011 18:15:20 GMT

About 2 minutes wired on a 200 MB/s connection my friend who has a 100 MB/s connection also clocked it to about 2 minutes... many downloaders I guess...

Re: Feelin' sorry for the "Boycotter's"

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 29 Jul 2011 00:04:47 GMT

I think the new map pack is the best one, just like in W@W they saved the best maps for last. Also I have not experienced lag ever, that is one of the benefits of a 200MB/s internet .

Also I think we are better off without these so called "boycotters" anyway since I can imagine what kind of age and maturitylevel they constitute.

I think perhaps you are stupid, but I couldnÂ´t really say since I do not really know you.

Re: What if you hated MW3, would you come back to Black Ops?

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 26 Jul 2011 22:52:58 GMT

If for some reson MW3 would not be satisfactory IÂ´d go back to MW2, it is the best game in the CoD franchise. I had lunch with some of my friends who works at DICE earlier this week and they say that MW2 is they game they were looking too as well when working with the BF3 project.

Re: Don't lie.. You use second chance

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 26 Jul 2011 22:26:40 GMT

I recently started to use it on Team Deathmatch, but I loose it as soon as I get TacMask PRO.
In TDM I try to revive as it is better to get 50XP for myself then letting the enemy score. In other gamemodes I donÂ´t really see the use for it. But I have all my 10 custom slots. If I had say only 6 or 7 slots I would probably feel SC wasted.

Re: Mac 11 for the win!

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 26 Jul 2011 10:15:56 GMT

Actually if the gave Mac11 +100 centerspeed they "buffed" it since the higher the value the faster it centers. If you slap on the grip it gives you another +100 and totals a centerspeed of 1800 compared to say Ak74u that has 1600 and a slower firerate.

Re: If you could....

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 09:22:59 GMT

Danger Close (as it is now the 3000c for the grenadelauncher isnÂ´t worth it and there is no real fear of the frags/semtex) probably tier 2, but maybe tier 3 to make the perk more desireable than SC.

Overkill (Tier 3)

Re: Call of Duty Franchise: "Sexist"?

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 09:05:48 GMT

Here in Sweden all males are required by law to serve a year in the army at the age of 18-20 (depending on work studies etc) with a weekly pay just enough to buy a pack of smokes, coffe and a porno mag (yup, that was the critera they used for calculating the pay in the 60Â´s and it still lives on). Girls can join but it is volontary and they get more money so they can afford "female products" during their service.

The only reason so few complains is that you can get your drivers licens lessons and such paid for, rent and other bills are taken care of during service and other perks.
I got shipped of to the grim north with minus - 30 degrees Celsius in the winter to learn how to handle weapons and to get hardened by the cold using it to our advantage on possible enemies.

We have not been in a war for more than hundred years and were supposed to be neutral and we marched for hours on end with heavy backpacks in freezing cold, some guys fainted and if you complained you were in for harsh punishments. Our crazy platoon doc would inject the tired and fatigued with amphetamines and had half the troops depending on Sleeping pills to get the much needed rest at nights. We did not get food sometimes and had to learn how to survive hunting and what few berries, roots and such were eidable.

It was the worst year of my life and the only thing that could make me do it again ever would be in the unlikley fact some terrorists were to target Sweden in some way. The only fond memory I have of it was venturing down to the town of Kiruna and the festivities during the midnight sun, the girls in that remote town above the polar circle were lining up waiting for us to come in and the sun were up for three whole days.

Re: Is it me or is there alot more camping now

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 08:37:53 GMT

I have gone back to my old CoD4 strategy when I quckly learnt all the popular spots and ran laps around the maps to take the campers out, and on some of the tricker maps used "fragsx3" if needed. The radius of exploson on an ordinary grenade back then was like a "Danger Close n00btube" on MW2
