I don't do well when I join a lobby in the middle of a match.

Almost every time I join a match in the middle (like 4 to 6 minutes left) I don't do very well. It's weird. I'm so disoriented. I guess because I normally spawn hearing gunfire, a care package, or an air strike all going on at once. I also usually die immediately after that first spawn because I ended up right near an enemy. I can never get in a rhythm. I don't go negative, but I always end up with a kdr of 2 or lower (usually lower). Seems like I'm always getting shot in the back. It's like I never know where anyone is. It doesn't always happen, but it does more often than not.
Pop in a match with under 4 minutes left though, and not in the middle of a gunfight, and it's like I'm superman. I might die once or twice but I'll have like 12+ kills in 2 minutes. Can't quite put my finger on it.
Same lobby though, after not doing well, and I start the match in the beginning and I'm back to normal and getting accused of hacking. Don't know what it is about spawning in the middle of a match that throws me off so much. Does that kind of thing happen to anyone else?
Whenever I join a lobby in the middle of a match I usually end up on the losing team. It's especially annoying when there's only one minute left and the team I joined is losing 1600 - 7300. For that reason, I consider mysef lucky when I join a lobby in the middle if a match and end up on the winning team.
I usually take several deaths at first when joining an ongoing match just because the other team has had time to setup and I have no idea how they are playing the map. Once I get a feel for what they are doing, I start finding my rhythm and usually end up with an ok kd. But like you said the next match things are back to normal. So no big deal.
Usually the worst time to join a match is when you're in a party of 3 or 4 team mates. You just know that a match that can take a party that big is due to people leaving because of cheats. Whats that? I hear you say, surely there's no hackers in MW3. ![]()
I love playing games from the start and having an 8 kdr, and then beasting noobs who join halfway through the game, and are all disorientated, and im already set up !
