What can shoot through a riot shield? Anything? Nothing?

No idea at this point. I know if you have a riot shield, you can't hold a gun, so that's some balance.

Did they learn nothing from Counter Strike ??? Everybody hates the f*cking shield.

i really hate this bit torrent b.s.
people should just pay for their crap.
-
Perks and Kill Streaks have been leaked as well.
All I can say is the 25 kill streak is pretty amazing looking.
-
From what I gather there are also legitimate copies of the game out on the street that litle rat bastards stole from the stores adn sold to their little nerdy friends.

Looks pretty cool though.

Lean is a terrible feature in FPS, might as well just allow wall hacking
speaking of which, what do they use for anti-cheat on the pc? is punkbuster still around?
and that 0 ping advantage for the host? why?

I just made my preorder for the far superior console version.

I doubt I'll pick it up at midnight. I'll probably just pick it up after work. I may get off early, since I have tons of personal time. check inbox on gtag.

I'm picking up at midnight. Have a group of about 8 guys I play wiht about 3 nights a week. We're all going to take Tuesday off and most of Wednesday. Playing from midnight until we die in front of the TV. Even had some MW2 Monster energy drink! lstmnstndng44

Amazon release day shipping for the PS3 version -- should be waiting on the front porch by the time I get home.

Lean has been a part of Call of Duty since its inception, there is absolutely no reason to take it out, just because consoles don't have it. It is a good feature. Punkbuster is still around, but MW2 is using VAC, which lets you play for a week after it catches you cheating before it bans you.
0 ping host advantage should be obvious. Ping your own IP and it will be less than 1ms.
Also, no /record function = :flush: No mod tools = :flush: 9v9 limit = :flush: No ability to kick players from match = :flush:
-
I know what lean is, and it's stupid. It promotes corner camping and lame gameplay. Shouldn't have lasted to CoD4. It gives an unfair and stupid advantage to the camping geeks who live and die by there K/D instead of playing the game for fun.
I understand why a host server has 0 ping, duh. I don't understand why they would allow it. 0 ping/LAN gives an incredible advantage to the host player, they can and should at least give him some artificial lag to level the playing field. That's all I meant.
I remember during Quakecon qualifiers we played 4 Kings on a Chicago server. We had 20-40 ms pings, 4k (from England) were running like 140. They killed us :lol: but it makes it hard for both sides.
Oh well. How well does VAC work and how, screenshots? I might need to research it on the intrawebs. PB sucks.

Friend of mine got it for 360 today through a guy off Amazon. Sent me a pic of the case. Lucky bastard.

You're welcome, son. Would you like some fresh cookies?

yes please, a tall glass of cold healthy milk would do wonders too

Guess which thread I am not reading for another 48 hours? This one.
I am not picking up the game at midnight tonight, like you dorks (READ: I am jealous as &@#%ing hell that I can't do this). I will pick up my copy tomorrow and won't be able to play until about 7pm.
Go &@#% yourselves.

how much does it cost? 60? doesn't seem worth it just yet. wait till it's down to 30.

You can prob pick it up used for $35, if that helps.

Did he send you the PC game or a console game? Plus, reasonably good chance your PC won't be able to handle it.

I just picked up two copies of the PC version for the Mrs. and I. Now gotta wait until 530 to get home and install it. No dedicated servers...no problem. Just lemme shoot someone!
Guess I will just put Eminem's "Until I Collapse" on loop for the rest of the work day to get me by. :banghead:

No sweat dude. Considering half the population of the universe will be getting this game, you might fit in better by taking the day off work and getting it now.

Clams is going to own everyone on this game for a few days/weeks. His early investigation of hidey holes in the maps will pay off.
And, his beard looks GREAT.

i'm terrible, haven't played in forever.
was wondering if you had noticed the beard today 8-)

OK, TONS of maps, played for 2 hours and played the same maps maybe twice. There are tons more places to go within the maps, buildings, roofs etc. And they are really big.
Guns early on a very similar to each other IMO, waiting for one that I LOVE. Tons of kill streak perks, some are interactive that you can control. Haven't gotten one but have gotten very close.
Ground war and TDM is all I played and Ground war can get very hectic. TDM on the big maps is interesting. A really good sniper can completely own the place.
Pretty good.

yeah my birthday is in 7 days. should i ask for this?

Walked out of Gamestop last night around 1 and had mw2 ripped to my xbox and was playing by 1:30am. Played until noon today. Took a few hours to rest the eyes and then played this evening. 14 hours of playing time so far. Will probably be over 1 day play time by Friday night.
Love most of the maps. Lots of aggressive rushing type players on xbox live. Most of the maps seem to favor more patience and posting up with cover (camping). Love Afghan, the chickens, and the dead cows.
I'm not very good but getting better. My K/D is over 1 and that's really all I can hope for.
-
Played a lot of MP tonight. The M4 is greatly improved. The SCAR-H is awesome though. The maps are awesome. Like said before, there are tons of them and they have a ton of detail to them. Welcome back CTF. That game type is FUN on these maps. The riot shield works well, as do the other perks and stuff. Thermal scope is great.
Favorite map? Wasteland.
Favorite kill streak? AC 130 just can't be beat.

how many kills do you need for that?
-
i haven't found a gun i like using yet but the kill streaks are insane. the missle one is sweet.
i played a little - not a lot, right now i'm at like level 20 or so.

I haven't gotten any kill streaks other than the care pack. :(
-
A lot of friends are telling me that it's "sweet" and "awesome" and "best game ever!" but they aren't telling me why.
what is different from Call of Duty 4? Better graphics/gameplay? Or just new maps?
Probably buying it tonight, have tomorrow off.
-
Cire- it's 11, but I got it through the care package. I unlocked the harrier and have been getting it quite regularly. That's 7 I think. Predator Missile is pretty great. I'm also around 20 or so. I got a pretty long kill streak with the AC 130. Switch to the middle sized gun and go to town.
Things different from CoD4- The game play and controls are pretty similar, thank God. But the maps are much more involved. There's always some form of high ground. You can get on roofs, etc. alot more frequently. Also, the environment is destructible. Customization is out of this world. Each gun has 7? attachments and 5-7 paint jobs. Each with tons of challenges. The perks now have a pro version that unlocks a better perk (Get so many kills with Stopping Power to unlock Stopping Power Pro which increases damage on vehicles). The callsigns seemed useless at first, but there are a few hundred Titles to unlock so it's fun to see what everyone has. You get points for everything. Multikills, shooting down helicopters, even stupid stuff like reloading the most times in a game or looking through a scope for the longest time. Graphics have definitely been improved. The blood splatter effect is awesome, and when an explosion occurs near you, you get a mud splatter effect. Nothing really influences gameplay, but it makes it so much more submersive.

sounds great. i like to hide in a corner and shoot people from a distance, i kinda suck at moving around and close-range stuff. did i hear that there are new perks for guys like me that suck and die a lot?
-
the maps seem crowded to me. i keep getting shot in the ear, or the ass. the forward facing one on one's don't happen enough, it's like ants just running around all over the place without much flow to them.
of course part of that is me not caring about k/d and just running around until i see someone to shoot.

I had the same problem, but once I learned some of the maps I got pretty good at knowing what to expect. There are a couple maps that are very Carentan/Chinatown esque. Way too maze like. Love the openness of the snow level with trains and Wasteland though.

yeah I really like the open levels.
lots of the fighting takes place over a distance which is really cool IMO.
overall their is like a million times more to this game in MP than COD 4. There is just a ton going on.

Can you not do private chats in a party anymore?
I was playing last night, and a guy sent me a private chat invite and a party invite (which use to work fine in both COD4 and COD5), but when we tried to enter a standard hardcore deathmatch (NOT mercenary) it gave us a notice that we had to quit our private chat and open up our communications to the group. :yuck:

This is the only thing I dislike about htis game. No private party chats. You have to go into game chat with all the little kids yelling n!gg3r and f@gg0t all the time. I toggle mute the whole room except my friends but it's really ridiculous. It also sucks to think you're getting owned by a 12 year old racist.

Agreed. I'm fine with it in gametypes like Search and Destroy, but TDM? comeon.

I haven't even tried the single player game yet. Spent a few hours last night just trying to get my bearings. I'll be locked and loaded for real action tonight or tomorrow.
-
I also want to add that Host Migration is AWESOME. Yeah, we've all had it with Halo and the like for a while now, but it's so much faster than them. I was back in the game within 1-2 seconds.
I'll probably start campaign tonight or tomorrow.

i'm a total dorkstore and went and bought it over my lunch break and played a while on the campaign. pretty fun. just climbed the ice. :steadymobbin':

Multiplayer has been down all day for me so I've been going through single player. Just took back Whiskey Hotel.

Got about 2/3 through the game. So far it's pretty awesome.

Anyone been in a game yet where a tactical nuke went off? I haven't.
I was in one last night when an electromagnetic pulse went off. Crazy. It makes your entire screen a little hazy, removes your map, and no one can use their red dot sights.

No nuke yet. I wondered what the hell the EMP would do to be worth 20 kills.

I am looking forward to level 19 tonight so I can play hardcore. That's all I really like to play anymore.
I am decent, but am often called a "camper." :rolleyes: I'm a sniper, not a camper. :curse:
-
I'm at level 35 I think. I'm a trainwreck. I couldn't sleep last night because I was dreaming about setting up my killstreak classes and couldn't make up my mind. I kept waking up. Crazy.
I think the maps absolutely promote camping. The guy rushing into the fight is a dead man. You HAVE to be sneaky and find good spots and move around. I went 37-5 yesterday in a game of domination. I had a corner of the map figured out and was running from point to point getting shots off at both ends and avoiding detection. Called in a Pavelow and it wiped out 18. Great fun.
I have some ideas on a new setup tonight that I can wait to try.
-
got some missle strikes today.
was doing pretty well on groundwar.
Have to stay out of the middle of the map unless you have a silencer. Have to keep moving around flanks and head off their guys.
deciding which combos to use is maddening.
-
i just run and gun until i get shot, gets frustrating but i can't just sit there like 95% of the other retards do all round.

I was rocking it out tonight. I adjusted my kill streaks so I have Predator Missile, Harrier Airstrike (basically an airstrike, then the harrier will float in a spot and take people out like a helicopter), and an AC130. I called in 2 AC 130s in no time. Had a few games in a row where I went like 25-4. I've been using the SCAR with the thermal scope. That thing is pretty cool. Run out of ammo too fast though. I also killed a guy with a riot shield, picked it up, then got 3 kills with it. My friend I was playing with got up on the roof in Highrise and went 27-4 and called in a nuke. First one I've experienced. Pretty cool. In another game, he called in a helicopter gunner and he went 41-0. wtf.

SCAR with ACOG and silencer right here, bitches. Totally agree that it runs out. May have to switch to scavenger just to get the extra magazines bonus perk.
Going to suck when I get cold blooded...won't want to give up the magazines.

Just beat this bad boy on on Hardened. The story wasn't really strong, but it was one of the better gaming experiences I've had. Can't wait for the next one that is setup by this one.
-
I've been using the TAR 21 silenced. Better than SCAR IMO, more ammo, way better close up.
-
I haven't used the TAR too much. just unlocked Thermal for my Barrett though. It's amazing on Highrise.

Finished the single player part last night. Pretty cool but ridiculously short.

What difficulty? I finished on hardened in about 7 hours. Nothing ridiculous about that. It's fairly standard if the game has a good multiplayer option. The only recent game I consider ridiculously short was Halo ODST. I beat that crap in 3 hours.

I never played MW1, and I was slow through the pit, so I started on Regular. I think it took me maybe 4-5 hours total. I'm going to go back through on Hardened though -- I only found 2 of the intel items on the first run through.

I just got the achievement for running the pit in under 30 seconds. Took about 10-15 run-throughs. Only got 3-4 intel items my first time through. way too much stuff is going on for me to look for them.

I once went on a "running riot" with nothing but a "needler". :users:

Bah, I had been holding off on purchasing this game but I'm going to be stuck in Central Illinois all week for work. I've decided to bring my 360 and buy the game before I leave tomorrow. This should make the nights in Decatur IL go by quicker....

Hey guys! Is this the Assassin's Creed II launch thread?
Just get Batman.
Batman won't give me the satisfaction of medieval assassinry, so, no.
And how much will MW2 blow my mind if I never played the original MW? I imagine a lot. I'll be running around looking for WWII weapons and getting shredded in the process, lol.

There is nothing satisfying about chainmail.
There's alot of stuff going on in MW2, so mind will be blown. I mean, you can either go with your class with the .50 caliber Barrett sniper rifle with a thermal scope or you can go assault with your SCAR-H with ACOG Scope and heart beat sensor. Maybe your side arm should be a fully automatic AA12 shotgun? Not to mention killstreak, perks, pro perks, deathstreaks, titles, emblems, challenges, etc. LOTS of stuff going on.

Loving this game. Went 51-5 Friday on a game of domination. One of my buddies in our party used a nuke last night on a domination game in quarry. We were down in the game too. Hilarious.

just called in back to back tactical nukes :runaway: multiplayer is much more addicting than cod4, anyone know what you get for prestige?

back to back nukes? the game ends when you call one, let alone two.
and you don't get anything for prestige other than a different medal next to your name and the loss of all your guns/weapons/perks/attachments.

so, just saw this game is on steam for download. love steam because it's really easy to buy a game. but, is it worth 50 bucks? i want to have some pc fun over winter break. bioshock was really good entertaino.
i mean, bioshock was kind of unique. i laughed during alot of the cut-scene's n stuff. not sure an "army" type game would be fun.

the single player is pretty short from what i've read, if that's what you're looking for. heard is great but short.
what about L4D2?

what about L4D2?
i dunno...i get frustrated w/regular old 1st person shooters quick.
they need an adorable story (like bioshock) or i will just go back to bbs posting, you know? :steadymobbin':

Don't buy this game. Doing so will let other developers think PC gamers will accept inferior products.
Ok, back to CS 1.6

The nuke is a great tool. My group plays Domination. If we're down it has come in handy when our guy sets off the nuke when victory is out of reach. Really pisses the other team off. Screams of "Camper!" are heard throughout the lobby. I have heard prestige will give you an extra slot for custom classes but I hardly think it's worth it. I will probably not prestige for a year or so.

that's not true, my friend went prestige on tuesday and it just started him over

Found this on a forum. Everything I've heard from people, you unlock the extra create a class at lvl 4 after you prestige, along with some extra stuff-
Hello! I registered for this post, after seeing a couple of threads about what happens when you prestige. Most of them were correct, but also missing some vital information. The callsign/emblem thread was so helpful, so I thought I'd be a little helpful too.
I prestiged yesterday and am at level 34 now, and just want to confirm everything here is correct, except there are parts that no one has mentioned. Here's the exact run down:
What you keep:
Titles unlocked
Emblems unlocked
Accolades count
Leaderboard standings
What you do NOT keep:
Any guns, attachments and equipment unlocked
Any Perks unlocked
Any challenges unlocked
Killstreaks unlocked
What you get in addition:
An extra class (unlocked at level 4 with the other classes)
A new Title and Emblem for the prestige (NOT unlocked at level 1, they're at level 2 or 3 or something)
NEW Prestige challenges in addition to the standard list of challenges (unlocked when you first unlock the other challenges)
NEW Gun challenges (in addition to the standard challenges)
I want to give a bit more info on the new challenges. I'm at work now, so I don't have the list with me, but it's pretty standard stuff, kill 20 people that are flashed by stun grenades, 20 people that are killed with flash grenades, get X amount of semtex kills, etc. The Gun challenges appear under the Gun Mastery challenge, and are also standard fare, but with much larger numbers. There's two extra challenges for each weapon, the Veteran (Kills), and Master (Headshot) challenges. The only difference between these and the regular challenges is the amount of kills/headshots is much, much larger. Like the Veteran I challenge starts at 500 kills for 10,000XP. I can only imagine how far up it goes, maybe there's a Veteran V for 10,000 kills or something. Also, the reward for all of these challenges is a Title or Emblem, I'm betting these are where the really rare Titles and Emblems will be.
I don't really remember if there's additional challenges for things like claymores or launchers, but I kind of think there are. Again, I'm at work so I can't check.
The real skinny on the prestige challenges is that you get around double the XP for using a gun. You still get the regular "Get 750 kills with this gun" challenge XP, but you also get the Prestige challenge XP as well. It should make leveling through the prestige levels a bit faster.
So far, I've also seen a few other sort of standard titles and emblems get unlocked as you proceed through the ranks. For instance, I got a "Sarge" with a beret on it, which I'm guessing I got when I hit the Sergeant ranks. Nothing really nutty though.
One final note, you still keep the default classes when you prestige, the new custom class doesn't replace one when you prestige. If you are a a first prestige you'll have all 5 default classes, and 6 custom classes for 11 classes in total.
Edit: I have to stress that all this is just based on the first prestige. I can't tell you if you get 10 extra custom slots for a total of 15 (assuming there's 10 prestige levels) or that there won't be additional challenge categories unlocked by later prestiges. But if you have any questions I'll try my best to answer them.

maybe 4th prestige? my friend is almost 2nd prestige and hasn't mentioned anything different. maybe i'll ask this afternoon.

I'll never prestige in a COD game again. learned that lesson.

Agreed. "working back up through the ranks" is not worth the loss of "ass kicking abilities"

Yeah, I mean I think it can make you a better player starting over sometimes but I've played enough COD games I don't think it could help much.

Yep, this game is amazing. Kind of obsessed with it.

I played 3rd person for the first time last night. Not sure what to think about it. Feels really weird.

MGS is the only 3rd person shooter I've ever played that felt "right." Then again, I can't remember any other 3rd person shooters I've played.
But damn, MGS was great (for the PSX).

Agreed. Gears of War had pretty good controls as well. Can't think of much else. Maybe SOCOM on the PSX as well, but it's been a while.

I've killed so many people that were using that. One time I just side stepped and knifed the guy. Picked up his sheild and killed 4 of his teammates with it.

Man, IW sure knew what they were doing taking out dedicated server support for PCs.
Check out those connections! (Not my pic, didn't buy this game)

34-2 today. Groundwar Afghanistan. Care package pave low-Harrier-Chopper Gunner.

Its hilarious. They knew pings would be terrible, so they replace the actual ping with bars :lol:

that's pretty good. Chopper gunner FTW in Groundwar. The AC 130 isn't good enough IMO.

QFT, I was one kill away from getting my first nuke the other night. My 24th kill of the streak ended the game :curse:

Why so obsessed over a game you don't even own? Counter Strike finally boring you?
-
I had 3 games in a row where I got killstreaks of over 25. I had just prestiged, so no nukes.
-
I just got this game like a week ago. The other day I got a killstreak of like 8 and my hands started shaking I was so nervous.
-
This game is pretty good. I played with a dude with a "EMAW" clan tag the other night and he was terrible. I think his username was lawnguy or something. Pretty awful. I went 70-10 on Afghan last night. Ended the game on a 33 kill streak and my chopper gunner was still in the air. I'm probably so good at this game because my penis is so huge and manly.
-
also playing with the EMAW tag. decent player, I flip flop between games of 20-5 and 11-7.

Ditto on the EMAW tag

I constantly get the "most time near enemies" accolade. I am fracking fearless.
Also, I am not good at this game so I probably walk near enemies without seeing them right before they knife me and/or double-shotgun me at close range.
-
double shotgun pisses me off. most unrealistic p.o.s. on the game.
-
I love having the double shotguns.
-
Earned my first nuke.
The 25th kill that earned me the nuke ended the game.
FML.

I'm done with the &@#%ing game until the care package glitchers are patched out. &@#%ing bullcrap. Played last night 3 games, 3 different lobbies and all 3 had care package glitchers.
"Barfy Bad Farts" is my gamertag. I think.

What were you playing? Play some objective based game types. People rarely glitch on them.

We play domination typically. We've decided out little group of 5 or 6 is going to set up a glitch killing class and go after them and make their lives hell. maybe split up and follow them from lobby to lobby until they quit.

We play Domination as well. Good mix of killing and objective.
