Re: Which is the best assault rifle?

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 07 Sep 2011 16:10:50 GMT

I would have to say it's the FAL by far. With Stopping Power and a quick trigger finger I feel like I'm almost unstoppable. The M16 isn't too shabby either.

Re: rate all the cod games you have played on a scale of 1 to 10

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 29 Aug 2011 16:58:26 GMT

MW2 - 8/10 Just like everyone else has said, the noob tubes are beyond frustrating in this game. It's very fun though and I feel like gamemodes like Domination and HQ work better.

Black Ops - 6/10 The game is good, but the MP is basically unplayable. Every match is so inconsistent. I have zero confidence that if I shoot at someone whether or not it might hit them.

Re: Roughly a year and a half later... Where do you stand?

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 29 Aug 2011 16:49:42 GMT

3rd Prestige, level 70.

Just started playing MW2 again this weekend after a long break and finally giving up on Black Ops. I have to say, other than the friggin noob tubes, I'm enjoying playing this much more. It's amazing that when I shoot at someone, the shots actually register!

Re: RCXD =/= 3 killstreak Valkryie Rockets =/= 7 killstreak

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 26 Aug 2011 14:00:25 GMT

Rockets are probably the worst killstreak in the game, IMO

Re: me playing nuketown

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 26 Aug 2011 13:58:12 GMT

I love playing Dom, but I gotta tell you, if I get stuck with Nuketown then it's the one map I ignore the objective. It's just pointless. I can't tell you how many times I've run across the map from A to C to try and cap it only to get ripped by the other team. It's just a ridiculous map for Domination so like it or not, when I'm on that map it's TDM and getting defense medals for me.

Literally Unplayable

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 22:25:50 GMT

I was just online for about an hour and every game I went into was unplayable. No matter what happened, I couldn't kill people and couldn't get shots to land. Guy with his back to me standing still... miss, miss, miss, miss. Guy running in front of me, literally empty and entire clip of a PM63 and not get one hit marker. How the hell am i supposed to play this game if this is what my experience is going to be like? Give me a break man... seriously.

This game is 100% skill, connection doesn't interfere with being good at a game.

To say this is just blatantly ignoring what is essentially a fact. There is an obvious HUGE difference from game to game based on connection, there's no argument to be had.

To say it's not true is like staring at a red wall and insisting that it is blue.

DLC playlists? Ugh.. don't like the sound of that (unless it's free). I think that they should just add a playlist called "DLC" and then have a TDM, Dom, Moshpit mode for each DLC.

Yea that's what I meant. A DLC playlist where all that is in there are the DLC map packs.

Escalation Maps almost never in rotation...

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 16:52:43 GMT

I'll first say that the Escalation maps were by far my favorite as a map pack. It's the only time I ever played strictly in a map pack playlist. I must have played nothing but Escalation Domination while it was available. Now that the playlist is Annihilation, I play in regular Core - Domination. The Escalation maps almost NEVER come up in this list. Instead, I get to play Summit and Jungle 9000 times. I wish there was still an Escalation playlist or maybe just a DLC playlist for guys like me who really liked that and are really sick of the release maps.

Re: What is the most useless perk?

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 16:48:19 GMT

I think the most obvious least useful perk is Scout. The reason for this is because it's limited to only one type of weapon. So if you aren't using a sniper rifle the perk is useless.

To say Second Chance is useless is just an emotional response rather than reasonable. You might hate people who use second chance, but anything that gives you the ability to not die and be revived is obviously useful.

Earned is a word that should be used very loosely here. Sitting on your butt playing games for hours on end isn't really earning them. And seriously... it's a gold colored gun in a game, who the hell cares! When that actually pays for food or my gas, then I'll give it some attention.

Re: Spy Planes

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 03 Aug 2011 19:33:48 GMT

I can understand what you're saying to an extent. For me, it is almost a necessity to have GHOST on as my first tier perk. Very rarely do I not use it and this is because of what you said... theres almost always a spy plane up. To further demonstrate that point, I personally always run a spy plane, counter-spy plane killstreak. I use spyplane because I know that so many people aren't using Ghost. I also use counter-spy plane not because I need it, but because alot of my teammates don't use ghost so it can give me away as well. It's also super handy to have on deck if the enemy rolls out an SR-71

Honestly, I am a Ghost Noob. I was never a Ghost Prod in recent call of duty games though. I hated the people who used ghost, the perk wasn't overpowered, I just hated ghost. But with Black Ops ghost is almost a must in most gme types to be succesful. Even teams getting spawn camped still manage to pull out a spy plane. Everytime I come on the forums people complain how overpowered ghost is in this game. I always thought they were right, but then I finally figured out what was really overpowered. The default 3-killstreak spy planes always in the air 24/7. A 2-kill streak with hardline, put hardline with spyplane and you have a sply plane up the whole game. There should be another 3-killstreak besides spyplanes and rc-cars, and spy planes should NOT be a freaking 3-kill streak. It should be a non-default 4 or maybe even 5 kill streak. If you know where the nememy team is, you will never die. Not even die to ghost people if you have a motion sensor and the ghost people aren't running hacker pro.

People will give me a simple solution, shoot them down. No. I don't have time to shoot down a spy plane and what do you know the enemy has another in the air. Countless of them. And only use sam turrets if you want someone with hacker to either a) Knife it, or b) hack it. And if you are the person always in th action I can not sit in my spawn half of them game shooting things down. Knowing another will be in the air within the next 5 seconds, plus I need a pistol incase I run out of ammo in a gunfight or pick up someone's gun in the middle of te map or action, so I need to pick it up fast. Strela takes forever to pull out.

Counter spy planes are good but still how many counter spy planes do you see in a game (because it's not a defualt killsteak). I would rather run ghost, take off counter uav, and put on blackbird.

All I'm basically saying is that ghost isn't overpowered, it's the default 3-killstreak that is always in the air 24/7, and because of this I can't perform at my best with other perks like flackjacket, scavenger, lightweight, or hardline unless I'm rolling with a party 24/7. And I usually play solo.

This is my first post, but I have been reading threads for quite awhile, almost 5months or so, and I just wanted to make an account to talk about this, what I think is the issue. And I'm now happy I can post on threads

Re: Shuffling Killstreaks

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 03 Aug 2011 19:29:16 GMT

What I've started to do is just start over. For instance, I almost always run 3,4,5 killstreaks. Once I get my Napalm Strike I just wait until I get another spy plane, and then I use it

Re: The Game is 60% Connection 40% Skill

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 19:05:13 GMT

I think that anyone who wouldn't agree that the connection plays a huge role in this game is in pure denial. If you read the forums for 10 minutes you'll see that everyone has the same issues of inconsistency. One match you can kill everything you shoot at. The next match you can be firing off at someone who isn't even moving and not hit them once. It's almost a joke sometimes how terrible it can be. 9 times out of 10 if I'm playing and the game feels ridiculous, where no matter what I'm doing I am getting destroyed, when I quit the host migrates because I was hosting. It's amazing HOW BAD the game is for you when your hosting!
