[Multiplatform] Modern Warfare 2. 50 THOUSAND RUSSES USED TO CHEAT HERE.

Finally got around to finishing the campaign. Played it on Veteran without turning the difficulty down once. Apparently it took me fifteen hours*. ffffffff rio There weren't really any supremely frustrating moments in the latter half of the game; last few levels were a comparative breeze.

Spoiler:

The finale irritated the hell out of me, though. HURR HURR QUICK TIME EVENTS HURR HURR HURR what a cop-out

Interesting to see that Ben Heck got a shout-out in the credits.

*does the game count time you spend leaving it idle on the pause screen as time played? If so, that's silly.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Got a nuke. Yeehaw:


It felt pretty good. Tearing niggas up on Favella. Also, note the fact that I got it while faced against a clan.

No it doesn't

Holy shit going back to vanilla COD after using the knife shit for so long is fucking tough. I always wanna switch back after getting bullshitted.

I have learned that Sleight of Hand is pretty fucking neat though. Faster reloading AND aiming? Yes please. Never really used it since it shares the same slot as Marathon, but it's came in pretty handy for clearing areas with a silenced weapon.

I miss unlimited run though.

E: Also I learned how to get on the roof on Highrise yesterday! Team South taught me how, and although this other guy and I died about 50 combined times trying to jump properly (it's tough), we still won the match somehow.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Tails dude I'm more than surprised you don't use Bling

btw they fixed the Javelin glitch on PS3, there was a patch yesterday

I've come to the conclusion that the game hates me. I have reached a point where I'm moderate at the game, no longer on the bottom of the list after a match most of the time.
Even then, whoever I get teamed up with kinda suck, or the entire opposing team is already on prestige and more experienced.
There was actually one point where it was a 4 on 4 match, one person on my team left right away so it was 3 on 4. Afterwords, more people started joining but they were put in the other team. By the end of the game it was 3 on 6 and this happened again in a different game. Not sure why the game decided to go retarded on matchmaking. There are even times when I join a game in progress and the team is losing and it's already at the end of the match >_>.
Even when I get lucky and get 29 kills 4 deaths, someone on my team has 0 and 17 and loses the match.
I thought getting better would mean more wins but that doesn't matter when the team is garbage.

Other than that I finally tried spec ops online with my bro. We've been playing veteran without lowering the difficulty and it's incredibly fun. We've got 39 stars so far and it just keeps getting harder but it has some long replay value. We must have tried breach and clear like fifty times until we finally got 26 seconds on it.
Hopefully they decide to release some more spec op missions through dlc.

FELIPE NO

I would, but at this point it's useless to me. All I'd use it for is for dot sight + silencer and at this point I've become accustomed to using the iron sights on most of the Assault Rifles.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I think I've got one bling pro class setup at this point. It was cool at first, back when the heartbeat sensor plus silencer or holo sight was actually useful, during the first week the game was out. Now I just use it to do two weapon attachment challenges at the same time. I'm all about sleight of hand pro in normal situations, or marathon pro for S&D speed class.

I'm getting close to completing all of the spec ops missions on Veteran now. All I have remaining is kill 10 juggernauts with explosives, save two sets of hostages on the oil rig, and clear 40 snipers, mercs, and juggernauts from Estate. Save two sets of hostages on the oil rig isn't that bad, it is just that we screwed up on the final breach a couple of times, but the other two are less easy.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

This is getting somewhat out of hand.

Microsoft: difference between cheat, exploit? None. Banned!

Ok, so glitchers are pretty much fucking terrible people. That's not really an issue.

Banning them, or threatening to do so, is a pretty hard thing to enforce, considering the lack of ability to discern if someone's actually DONE IT.

But why the fuck are solely end users being punished for a developer's mistake? I understand that actually doing it can't be justified, but neither can this reaction.

I was reading a comment somewhere that brought up the point that IW controls their own playlists.

Here's something, BAN THE JAVELIN UNTIL YOU CAN ROLL A PATCH OUT. Bam, problem fucking solved. Users are no longer gigafucked for your inability to playtest.

I mean, it's the fault of the developer to fix the problems, and to test their product. This didn't happen. It's also impossible to justify the cheating. There's blame on both sides, but this doesn't seem like the best fix. I don't even think there is one. Lose-lose all around.

How ya doing, buddy?

Let's be honest here, if they are going to start banning people for exploiting glitches that are developers' mistakes, they might as well ban at least 75% of Xbox Live's users each time they buy a new game.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

The glitch hasn't really ruined the game for me. Every once in a while you'll get one in the game and most people either cuss them out for doing after or just leave. It is few and far between that I even see one (which is surprising b/c I play Hardcore HQ). I know if it were me doing it and seeing the whole team leave it wouldn't be to fun after awhile. Anyways most people don't play as a team, they are primarily focused on their personal scores rather than winning a match.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I have a new found appreciation for the Riot Shield.

Some guy suggested we have a team of people doing it, so we had 3 dudes with Riot Shields on Wasteland, and myself behind all of them with Akimbo 1887s and Stoping Power. We just kept running through the middle trench and around the field, and nobody could stop us.

49 kills 10 deaths.

If only I had the Nuke perk selected.

E: Oh, and I ran into one of the guys sporting an IW clan tag (only authorized folks can use it) so I suppose they really do have people playing the game to check for glitchers. He stuck with us for a few rounds and bounced.

I bet he's busy telling co-workers about these jerks with riot shields and akimbo shotguns gaying up their game.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Dudes wouldn't have this problem if they didn't give the 1887s ungodly range~

Also he joined up after our little Riot Shield rampage. He did start switching to akimbo's once he noticed I was tearing shit up though. Too bad I kicked his ass three ways to Sunday.

How ya doing, buddy?

As far as the javelin thing goes, are most online games unrestricted weapon choice then? I only ask as it's incredibly rare to ever find anyone playing Ghost Recon online with explosives allowed. Having not played MW2 though, I'm not sure whether explosives are an integral part of the game or not.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I don't believe any of the playlists have weapon restrictions.

Been running into fewer javelin fags lately, but I still saw a few on hardcore S&D earlier. Maybe they're actually taking complaints against people into account?

Yeah, Grenade of Grenades: Grenade Grenade 2 has nothing to do with explosives at all.

Also you set up games in Tom Clancysoft Presents Tom Clancy's Tom Clancy simulator, it's not a straight up playlist system.

If you want to not get raped night and day by air support (choppers, harriers, AC130s), you'll pack at least one Custom Class with a Javelin or some other sort of anti-air weapon.

Which gun is the best?

1887 Akimbos.

I don't know what gun that is.

It's the good one.

Dropped my 2nd tac nuke tonight. Ask Mo0, he was there to bask in my awesomeness.
