Something I noticed last night, and it is the first time it has happened to me was that I hosted EVERY single game I played in! Even when I dropped back to the lobby to reform a party, I still ended up hosting the game. I've never known this to happen, and it makes me wonder if the problems with the guns are in fact connections issues. One thing I cannot understand though, is why I hosted every game. A clan mate has the same service provider, and like me he had full four bars, but he was never chosen, but I was. I noticed occasionally the other players on mine, and the opposing team in some games though, had yellow bars and orange blobs. Sometimes their connection status would vary wildly, and I don't think it had anything to do with the new maps, because we played entirely on the old map pack last night. Maybe the update did something to the way the game selects hosts?

RPD is my anti-noob + anti-run 'n' gunner gun. Great for when you just don't have the time to reload.

I agree that grip is a must for RPD. I do also have one class with grip + FMJ, also. RPD is so great with FMJ.

I mainly like the RPD because of the size of the magazine, and when coupled with the grip (and stopping power) makes for a pretty stable firing platform. I am beginning to wonder about the RPDs capabilities against runners though. The problem I think the RPD has against them is that it is too slow at firing, when it is important to get the first bullet on the target in CQC. I actually shy away from those situations with the RPD and use it strengths in accuracy and damage to get the kills I seek. 👍
 
Sharky.
Because Rafficas aren't SMGs ;) Akimbo SMGs are pretty fail - I would (and do) only use akimbo on the Glocks (they have the smallest crosshairs of any akimbo weapon), Rafficas or the pistols.

I think I got some 1500 kills on Akimbo MP5s. Would use a Machine Pistol like the Raffica or PP2000 to pick of further away targets, while using the MP5s in close quarters areas. I know I've called in several chopper gunners off the setup, just a matter of using the map and terrain effectively, and getting the feel for when to start firing.

Yeah, I do have to pick them off before they get too close. When RPD become useless for me is when I get on the move. Takes too long pick up & aim, plus like you said, slow fire rate.

Maybe tonight if you are on we should try me starting the party and me inviting you? I have a fast connection and maybe if I start the party I will get host and it might make it a little better in most of our games. Your connection isn't great and I'm sure we never get host. Try it out and see the outcome tonight? I am cleaning house all freaking day and I will have dinner cooked and on the table at 6 and be playing by 7 or 8 most likely. I finished ultimate alliance 2 last night and sent it back today so I only have MW2 to play today, unless Skate 3 comes in the mail today. Even if it does I still want to jam MW2 a bit tonight and give me hosting the party a shot. Also, headset or no headset?



Or if you have nothing to do during the day today I can play now, today, whatever. I always find better games during the day because all the douche bag kids are in school for the most part :)

Why does it appear that you are lying down when you get shot a certain way?

Pure lie? I don't get it. I do find better games during the day time compared to the night, didn't know you where hiding in my room watching my matches when I play in the day to say its a pure lie....lol. And what are you talking about getting shot laying down?

I always get the bad people that tend to say stupid stuff; if not, its the hardcore gangsters.. I was just looking at the game while my nephew is playing and when he got killed. It looked like the character model was laying down. An automatic drop shot other than Final Stand and Last Stand?
 
Not sure about the laying down thing, so can't say anything on that. I skip around in lobbies allot to find one I do ok in etc. I mute everyone if people start arguing and all that bs. I always have way better KD during the day than compared to at night. Most of the time allot of the better players are on at night so that has allot to do with it I believe.

Silenced MP5, Marathon, Stopping Power, Commando/Ninja/Steady Aim will just rock people. I've been using it a lot, and as long as you engage moderately close, you will just drop people so fast. I've been pairing it up with a Tact Knife pistol just in case I need to melee some people fast in a clutch situation. And that works too haha.

Yep, I used to have that MP5 setup but I believe I used a Spas as my backup. Not much point when the MP5 kills nearly as quick, but I felt safer. :lol:
 
First time playing in a bit, went 42-9, I love the daytime much more than the nighttime players. The daytime is for "Teh N00bz" as the kids say it? Man, my new strategy is to throw on my TAR silenced class with SP and get my predator and just hold it, if I get my other 1 or 2 killstreaks then ok, if not then ok. After I die I will change to my danger close class and then use my predator which I hardly ever don't get 2-5 kills with, most of the time I get at least 3 when using it with DC, then 2 more kills and predator again, stay alive and once you get to CG with danger close on it is pure overpower delight :)

truth! i also find i do better in the day and enjoy it more while the kids are at school.

i wish i could jump around in lobbies, but, it takes so long now to find games i just suck it up and see what i can make happen. :ouch:
 
I screwed my foot yesterday and so now I am at home during school time. I cannot find ANY aussie games. Instead, I have to put up with Americans asking each other if they are black, if they are, they need to leave because apparently white Americans are mostly fags. I dont understand this, every American server on MW2 is so racist, and apparently Australia is the most racist country. We dont go around paying out blacks online all the time :/

Apparently, because I defend them and ask why they are so discriminative, it makes me a '****** lover'...

I get someone using the N word maybe once or twice a week. I think they just put you non north american players into lobbies with our worst citizens in order to keep you away from our country. I wouldn't put it past activision.

XBL or PSN?
 
So there is a mexican and an American kid. The mexican asks if he is black, the kid says 'huh? The mexican goes, you dont got dirty crap on your skin? Kid says no, Mexican: Good, I hate ******s :lol:.

Yeah, count me in broseph. I'm all for you hosting. I'm somewhat skeptical, but it really couldn't hurt anything. I just shot some hoops, I should be on after shower(2 hours!). j/k Half an hour.

This is exactly what me & breakpoint have discussed before in this forum. Sure there are plenty of racists left in the country, but what most of them are guilty of, talking general nonsense, pointless crap. I also encounter so many racist commenting idiots on XBL, and I guarantee you, 95% of them act like a model citizen in front of the Mexicans, and 99.9% in front of the blacks. Mexicans, around this area, they can be a little more racist to your face, but they are smart enough to do it in Spanish. Many black dudes I know, they just don't give. :lol:

Wow, that was pointless. :lol: The point is, at least in the NorthWest part of the States, racism that goes in MW2 lobby is almost non-existent. I don't think they don't mean it, and even if they did, almost none of them would have the guts to say racist stuff to your face. Maybe after you walked away. To his also-ignorant boyfriend. :lol:
 
I was playing domination earlier and it seemed like I was always getting the dom glitch every time I was capping a flag. Especially if I was trying to cap B. It happened twice in the same game on favela. Lucky for me no one seems to know the secret B cap spot on that map. How is this game still this broken?

That happens when an enemy is on his flag, defending it. When the enemy standing there dies, the flag resumes.

No no. The dom glitch is when the bar goes all the way to the very end and just sits there without getting the cap. This is documented and happens when opposite team isn't anywhere near.
 
*sigh* A night filled with noob tube and explosive spam. Still had a bit of fun with my riot shield + USP class. Tonight was terrible though. The only sounds being heard in the game was the sound of M203s firing. I'm not even over exaggerating, it was literally that bad. :crazy:

I know about the cap spot on B on Favela. Anyone who has watched Sasbenjr's Domination videos on Favela knows about it, as he regularly exploited it in his videos.

I have never seen this happen either, but I also do not play a lot of Domination either.

I had a game on Wasteland last night that was that way with the M203s. It definitely annoyed me, but I was playing badly at the time, so that lessened the annoyance. For whatever reason, I continued to put myself in bad situations that did not give good field awareness. :lol:
 
Again, the dom glitch is something I've NEVER came across and I play alot of domo. I must have really good luck with these bugs and such.
