I must apologize to all you guys who kept sending me invites yesterday. I was set up in a LAN party with family, and half the time wasn't even on my own PS3. I wasn't ignoring you, I just couldn't get out a reply message.

Come to think of it maybe it was the guy I got an instant throwing knife payback on (he off'd me just a fraction of a second after the knife left my hand) down the long arched hallway on Skid Row. Even though it was a pretty lucky shot I'd have to agree that guy had a right to be pissed at me :D

I had a good one on Skidrow, too, and it was caught on a game winning replay.

As I turn this one corner, although I'm running like a madman, I had this funny feeling I was being followed. I don't see anybody, but I place a claymore at this corner, start running again. Sure enough, as soon as I start running again, I'm shot in the back, but that's when my claymore gets him for the game winning kill. :lol:
 
Yeah, the banana leaves :p.

The things I found interesting were that when you jump on a car it explodes, you can head shot predator missiles and you can take out ac130's with a predator missile.
 
Just Got this game yesterday and its lots of fun. I'm clueless about the online though. When can you use Predator missiles and how, and also, when can you and how do you call in the fighter jets/helicopter to kill the enemies? I have no experience with a CoD so i'm just clueless.
 
Have you play online at all? If you have you will see different ranks for people, when you are rank 10 you unlock the ability to use custom killstreaks. The default will be 3- UAV, 4- Care Package, 5- Predator Missile. To earn each of them you have to get kills without dying up to their respective numbers, eg. Get 5 kills without dying and you will get a predator missile. As you level up you will have the ability to unlock more and more kill streaks but you will only be able to use 3 of your choice at a time. Fighter Jets or a certain helicopter are called in at a 7 killstreak (7 kills without dying), you should hopefully get the point, do you?
 
Wow I guess the banana leaf thing makes sense now. I literally went BANANAS when someone wouldn't die behind them once. Literally wtf?

Some other good things in that vid!
 
I just had my best game ever. Domination in Afghan.
85 Kills, 8 assists, 5 deaths. :lol:
2 Chopper Gunner and a 43 kill streak. My K/D ratio upped by only 0.01 from 2.82 to 2.83.:ouch:

WOWOWOWOW, you were 60 kills in front of the next highest person.

I had a great S and D match on Afghan. 13 - 1. I got harriers and a predator missile, predator gave one kill and the air strike of the harriers gave me 2 kills.
 
You're annoyed your K/D only went up 0.01 to 2.83? I get annoyed if my K/D doesn't rise by 0.01 to 0.51*.... :lol:





*note that the poor K/D is due to the woeful matchmaker when the game was released, so I was going 1-0-10 with one bar connection; post-matchmaker update my K/D is consistently closer to 0.8-1.0

Not to be a complete turd but it didnt seem to stop most people, my KD was 1.6 when the game came out with crud matchmaking and it has since gone down to 1.27 which is now very slowly rising. I think alot of the reason should be taken off of the matchmaking, you needed that week to learn the maps, the game, the playing style, EVERYTHING, all of those factors count, matchmaking is just one of those factors.

Sorry for the rant Sharky but I think blaming it all on the bad connections is a bit much :sly:.
 
Well yeah, given that this was my first online FPS (but not my first actual FPS) I was always going to struggle at the start, but the matchmaker had a fair bit to do with it ;)
 
I don't think that the guy with 3 kills and 23 deaths really enjoyed when I was spawn killing his whole team with a chopper. :lol:

Get out of here! I still can't believe some of the stuff in that video. Are they for real?

F2000 rifle must be using a fiber-optic/tritium aiming-point illumination scope. They don't use batteries or electronics of any kind.
 
Dude. First of all, 85 kills doesn't even compute with me. On Sharky's connection, if I had 1, 2 bar connection all the time, my k/d should be noticeably worse. When I played with Legend last, I had two bars at times, but they do fluctuate. It was not fun!

I did have enemy EMP go off, and my red dot still worked. I didn't realize it, but maybe it was a pick up F2000.....
 
It might not be fun for you with two bars because you would have always had great connection in CoD 4 and 6, I have learnt how to play on it, it is definately not hard. The only thing is the delay, the delay is everything. If you arent on a one on one you should come out very much alive.
 
Yeah, in that game we played, I think I was killed in every single one-on-one, face-to-face situation, except maybe one.

I think I'm gonna get on now. If I'm getting less than three bars, I'm backing out. :lol:

Haha I reckon you couldn't be more wrong, I played this on my friend's PS3 yesterday and all we ever found were green connections (even in fkin ground war!) It was actually like playing a totally different game, compared to the 95% yellow connection games I get when I play on xbox 360. It was so strange to actually have my bullets hit their target I had to adjust my play style (no more leading, and I could finally sneak around corners!).

I can't believe IW is still ignoring Aussie Xbox 360 users - they fixed matchmaking for PS3 in the second patch ffs!
 
You dont have to lead the bullets when you have lag, they hit regardless, just with a bit of a delay.

In many cases when I watch the killcam in a yellow or red game in close quarters kills I am aiming about 1-2 metres away from the guy if I don't lead slightly. In many cases if the guy has recently moved and is now standing still it'll show me shooting at where he was, making me look like an idiot.
 
That is the delay Vasco. That is what I was saying about one on ones, it hasnt yet processed your games information to the server, if the server is in America the request to the server is going to take longer, that is what your one or two bars is from, that is what the bullet lag is from, that is what the underlying truth. A large number of times you will have the killcam lag happen to you and people want it fixed, they rant about wanting it fixed. The only way it can possibly be fixed is by getting a better connection, eg, green. The only way you can get better connection is by having a host close to you, that is what the match maker does or is supposed to do.
 
I just broke my second pair of headphones. Full green bars, they will not go down. About a half clip of MP5, they just pick up their rifle, and I'm IMMEDIATELY down. IMMEDIATELY.

I take this game way too seriously. :indiff:

Oh ok, well the way I understood is how it worked in other games (e.g. Halo, CS) where if you had a laggy server you pretty much had to anticipate where the guy was going to run to/what he was going to do if you wanted to hit him. It's just so annoying, because don't get me wrong I still have a 1.2 k/d despite all this **** from IW, but it would be nice to play with Aussies more. I have no idea why they fixed it for Playstation only though, has anyone been able to uncover why?

Edit: a6m5, just be thankful that you're not swearing at the TV yet...haha
 
I was playing yesterday with my cousin. Two PS3s, two TVs, same room playing online. I was doing HORRIBLE, with maybe 1 game where I was remotely close to a 1.00 K/D. I was having fits, getting frustrated, swearing at anything and everything. Came home, hooked my stuff back up to my gear, went 17-0 in a half-over Scrapyard TDM I joined then 32-10 in the next match. Tops on my team or overall in like 75% of the matched I played. There must have been something with not being on my usual setup that threw me off earlier in the day.
 
I stayed at my mates house last night and we had a MW2/whiskey jam. He went to bed at about 2 a.m. and well, since I don't have the game excitement took over and I played it until 10:30 this morning straight, stopped at 10:30 because I had o get home :) I had a awesome time with my new favorite set-up. UMP with FMJ, marathon pro, lightweight pro, and ninja pro. I came in first on just about every match and never used my gun once. I would get my care package and then equip it so I could run sonic fast and I ran around like a madman just cutting everyone. It was so much fun, the last match I called in 2 AC130's! There were times I would get behind the other teams spawn at the start and seriously cut 3-6 people in one room without any of them catching on until they were all dead. If you haven't done that perk set-up with the care package glitch, do it cause its so fun. I have MW2 now, just need my 360 back and I'm set!
