Can't wait to get shot by G.T. :scared:

👍 :lol:

G.T
Looking at the top players on that kills leaderboard I can definitely say the K/D ratios are much better overall on the 360 one. Top player (genuine, that dude I was playing with the other day) has a K/D ratio of 4.59, and the next 10 has ~3.0, and a couple of ~1.5s.

There's one guy who has a ratio of just over 7. Imagine, a chopper more often than not!! :crazy:
 
I am not sure I am up to the standard however I shall give it my best shot, litterally of course.

My run and gun tactics ussually allow me to rack up a big score, but against extremely skilled players I get the feeling this tactic can only end up with a negative Kill : Death.

Still small free-for-all sounds like the perfect test.

I think G.T should be on that list given his extreme talent.
 
Wow! I just saw a thread on IW where a genuine player was on a protest regarding the cheaters getting to level 10 prestige withinin a couple of days using a sad tactic ...

It linked to this video of the sad gits getting 3000 xp points per match

All created and organized by this cheating bastard at this forum here ...

In the same post the genuine player showed a link to a new cheat for the pc version :crazy: I mean! ... how sad are these tossers? 👎
This is way too much and as soon as it hits the PS3 I will quit playing this game in public matches full stop! ...

What a total waste of time these guys have with online gaming :grumpy: someone always has to disect these great games just to see whats inside and overglorify the crap skills they have ... arseholes 👎

Yeah actually a bunch of these people are pretty organized and like to call themselves "griefers" (gotta give'em props for choosing an apt term). Read all about it here:
Mutilated Furries, Flying Phalluses: Put the Blame on Griefers, the Sociopaths of the Virtual World

Some telling quotes from the article:
"We do it for the lulz," ^ban^ says — for laughs. Asked how some people can find their greatest amusement in pissing off others, ^ban^ gives the question a moment's thought: "Most of us," he says finally, with a wry chuckle, "are psychotic."

If there's one thing, though, that all these factions seem to agree on, it's the philosophy summed up in a regularly invoked catchphrase: "The Internet is serious business."

Look it up in the Encyclopedia Dramatica (a wikified lexicon of all things /b/) and you'll find it defined as: "a phrase used to remind [the reader] that being mocked on the Internets is, in fact, the end of the world." In short, "the Internet is serious business" means exactly the opposite of what it says. It encodes two truths held as self-evident by Goons and /b/tards alike — that nothing on the Internet is so serious it can't be laughed at, and that nothing is so laughable as people who think otherwise.

To see the philosophy in action, skim the pages of Something Awful or Encyclopedia Dramatica, where it seems every pocket of the Web harbors objects of ridicule. Vampire goths with MySpace pages, white supremacist bloggers, self-diagnosed Asperger's sufferers coming out to share their struggles with the online world — all these and many others have been found guilty of taking themselves seriously and condemned to crude but hilarious derision.

You might think that the realm of online games would be exempt from the scorn of Goons and /b/tards. How seriously can anyone take a game, after all? And yet, if you've ever felt your cheeks flush with anger and humiliation when some 14-year-old Night Elf in virtual leather tights kicks your ass, then you know that games are the place where online seriousness and online ridiculousness converge most intensely. And it's this fact that truly sets the griefer apart from the mere spoilsport. Amid the complex alchemy of seriousness and play that makes online games so uniquely compelling, the griefer is the one player whose fun depends on finding that elusive edge where online levity starts to take on real-life weight — and the fight against serious business has finally made it seem as though griefers' fun might have something like a point.

Moving, and maybe even illuminating. In the end, no matter what they say, life on the Internet really is a serious business. It matters. But the tricky thing is that it matters above all because it mostly doesn't — because it conjures bits of serious human connection from an oceanic flow of words, pictures, videoclips, and other weightless shadows of what's real. The challenge is sorting out the consequential from the not-so-much. And, if Rich Kyanka's steely equanimity is any example, the antics of the Goons and /b/tards might actually sharpen our ability to make that distinction. To those who think the griefers' handiwork is simply inexcusable: Well, being inexcusable is, after all, the griefers' job. Ours is to figure out that caring too much only gives them more of the one thing they crave: the lulz.




Pick a time, I'd say around 8pm 9pm GMT. Although as you all have seen in the past i'm not particularly punctual!

Put me down as a definite maybe, I mean c'mon it is Friday afterall ;) However the prospect of watching GT work against F1D, Stevis and the rest of us really makes me want to commit. And I'm guessing a "suitable unlocked weapon" for GT is a knife :D
 
Great idea!

New rule: James (aka G.T) can only use the knife throughout the matches, no shooting whatsoever (nades are ok). That'll make things slightly more balanced.
 
Any one interested in setting up a big private game between us this friday. I'm giving myself aload of time to set this up, otherwise as usual it'll be me and just one or two others. Hopefully Beerz you'll have your PS3 back, but thats probably wishful thinking.

I'll try to make it, but i might be going out that night.
 
I dont know guys, that Friday night is the last Friday of my March Break, but because a lot of you guys are in Europe that makes it alot easier for me. I am not all about CoD, I like to party!

Should be alot of fun, and imagine a 18 player FFA at Shipment? talk about complete insanity. Should be sweet to see GT on PS3 and play with the other guys who I haven't yet. So put me down as a probable for Friday night.
 
I'll try, but if it's 8PM GMT, wouldn't it be like 3PM Eastern? if so, I'll be at the park (hopefully), and couldn't make it, especially if my dad takes the controller until my chores are done...

From,
Chris.
 
I've just got a knife fight that last almost 20 seconds with a guy, it was fun at hell. I finally got him by pulling out my best martial art move (putting my finger on the R3 button and then apply pressure to it)
 
I have been in a few knife fights, me and this other guy tried to knife each other for a while but then I was like "WTF?" and pulled out my pistol and shot him.
 
GT will you have the PS3 version by Friday? You did say your getting it, didnt you?
It's ordered! :)

Again, I don't have a headset... I will buy one at a later date, but I don't want to push my budget too far. I'll wear headphones instead though since my speakers are crap.

Well, I suppose I could take them off so you all have a better advantage. I'll be happy to do so. :)

BTW - I'm USELESS at knifing. Unless the person is standing still I don't have a chance. :lol:
 
I'm actually really good at knifing. I only fail when I try to knifecharge. :lol: I have gotten 5 kill streaks with melee's before (indoor Bog FTW) including a 4 kill streak that was the same guy. :lol:
 
No cage matches with me and Steve.........OK :nervous:.... its too freaky! haven't recovered from the last one!

Oh and on another note, don't you just hate it when you're doing HTD you start and one stupid guy holds back to mow all of you down then leaves the server...
 
I was playing GW the other day, and a guy walked into me, and we started circling eachother shooting at the other's foot, then I finally took out my knife :p

From,
Chris.
 
You'll go bezerk with switching your mind and fingers to PS3's controller. It took me like 2 weeks to stop bitchin about it after moving from X360 :D

Its not that hard, the only real difference is switching from using the right triggers to shoot, to R1
 
I'll try to make it, but i might be going out that night.


I was thinking a few of you might, but it'll be pretty early when we start for you since you are, I'm guessing, GMT -5. And I'm not going out this weekend because Monday is St.Patrick's Day (Irish Patron Staint) you all know what that means, you've all seen that famous Irish Simpsons episode with the prohibition.

@ Icelt I was going to give out to you for your favourite quote "American sober or Irish sober" but I see were your coming from now, but we're not always drunk just on the 17th of March!!
 
I suck at knifing. I think I've gotten at most ten kills with a knife. :lol:
Anyways, I returned CoD to Blockbuster a few days ago, so I haven't been playing. My question is, did they finally release the new kill cams for the PS3 version?

Cheers,

-TT-
 
I had some good rounds tonight (not with any of you guys...) I managed to win a Free For All and came 1st position in 3 Dominations....I was quite pleased.
 
I'll have to see about Friday, i've got little cousins coming to visit so i have to hide the PS3. :rolleyes:
 
Bad news guys...my brothers Guitar Hero 3 has turned up, I'm probably not going to get a chance to hop onto the PS3 for awhile unless I do it this afternoon before my brother gets home from school.

BTW I'm off sick at the moment...
 
Man i love this game, i just bought a PS3 on saturday (80GB with Motorstorm included) also bought COD4, got home first thing i did was get the wireless working, then updated everything, got the GT theme and off to play COD4 ive played it on 360 before but not PS3. These graphics are amazing, and online play is even better, today I dominated everyone in a Team Deathmatch, i ended up getting 18-7 wich is my best record so far, and i have knifed about 20 people online so far :D.
 
Great to see another Canadian from GTP joining the battle! We have a meet set up for 8-9 PM GST (3-4 EST) hopefully you can make it out, be sure to send out friend invites.
 
:lol: I was playing last night and me and this other guy both had P90's, trying to capture "C" on District in a Domination match, we circled each other, both ran out of ammo, kept circling eachother until we reloaded, and then I shot him in the foot :p

Moral of this story kids? Pull out your DE when circling an enemy and your main gun needs to reload.

From,
Chris.
