I only just got this game (yeah I know, why did it take you so long....well life happened) and I have a few noob questions that have probably already been answered but I don't want to trawl through 800 pages to find the answers.

The "disturbing" level that you can skip......the russian airport, right?

Also, when playing TDM, can someone tell me what the skull and crossbones are (deaths). And whats an easy way to identify opponents? I keep not shooting them thinking they are a team mate and then they kill me. Noob questions I know but, hey sue me.

yep

headshots i think

edit: nope

thinking about the thing on the bottom left

And whats an easy way to identify opponents? I keep not shooting them thinking they are a team mate and then they kill me. Noob questions I know but, hey sue me.

if your playing core (ie not hardcore) team death match, your team mates name should appear in green over their head, also theres no friendly fire, so if you are unsure just shoot anyway

Coxy is n00b, don't listen to him.

No russian level is the russian airport. I didn't find it overly bad, I wouldn't skip it if I were you.

lso, when playing TDM, can someone tell me what the skull and crossbones are (deaths).

The skulls appear where your team mate died.

And whats an easy way to identify opponents? I keep not shooting them thinking they are a team mate and then they kill me. Noob questions I know but, hey sue me.

An easy way to identify opponents is to look for their clothing. Each team has different outfits on. Also your team has their name above their head so that always stands out.

After a while, you'll just know who to shoot without thinking.

I think skull and crossbones are when you die from your own explosions or assisted suicide.

Awesome, thanks mate. No friendly fire should help me lots. I tend to spray a bit.

As for that Russian Airport thing, I can understand why they were made to put the warning in there but I found it fun....maybe too much fun.

Ok. Thanks for the tips. Wouldn't mind joing your next FFA night you have. Might learn a thing or two.

I'm sure we could work something out but I've quit MW2. I haven't played it in a week (I think). The whole package (apart from spec ops) is pretty bad, too many idiots playing multiplayer.

I'll stick to COD4 for the moment.

might not have a mass FFA, but there should be a few on friday and saturday

Nah I doubt I will be coming back actually.

Heavy Rain comes out in 13 days and I don't think that will be leaving my PS3 until March or April when God of War 3 and Just Cause 2 come out.

any average player can luck out in mw2 and have a big round due to the numerous hiding spots, super accurate guns and ridiculously over powered killstreak rewards.

Then surely a good player could have an even bigger round?

 

[weagles]

Nuke is an overpowered killstreak, should be nerfed.

 

[Ochre]

guns are so n00b, so easy to kill people with, should be patched

 

[weagles]

Prestiged players are such n00bs, constantly being matchmaked with good players.

IW PLEASE FIX THIS!!!!!

Then surely a good player could have an even bigger round?

they can very easily with the right killstreak reward setup. (i was speaking purely big kills here....though bigger scores are an end result also)
it works both ways for sure but with so many wonderful hiding spots it's alot easier for a bad/average player to get comfier than if they were more visible in a one on one for example and get a 3 or 4 streak which can turn into something mega without them being seen for the rest of the round.

carepackages are near useless for a very good player in tdm for example because they will get nothing but ammo, uav's and counter uav's....
whereas the players who are getting smashed in a free for all or a tdm or are on the losing team cause they're not going for bases but with huge kills (a very good player) in a gametype like domination will get pavelows and harriers and chopper gunners in their carepackages......a flawed and very much exploited system which has borderline ruined my most enjoyed/played gametype (domination) and is a big reason why i'm not the biggest fan of mw2 around.

don't get me wrong a good player will still top score the majority of the time (and they do) but the game has been designed in a way that it's alot less about skill than basically any first person shooter ever released.


edit: an example of this is a story i said not long ago where i played for kills for like...the only time ever in this game that i can think of and changed my killstreak rewards to harrier (which got shotdown straight away), pavelow and choppergunner....once i got to 11 kills i was hiding and i wasn't seen by an enemy until i was 28-0...and that was literally my first match going for kills....the only skill in that was my knowledge of the maps and flanking to get to 9...after that the game took over and let me cruise to 28 without an enemy seeing me once....
if that isn't flawed or overpowered for what is supposed to be a FIRST PERSON SHOOTER then i don't know what is.

I agree Camo. It's why there simply needs to be a COD4 match type, where you only have the 3, 5 and 7 killstreaks. Would just offer that COD4 type of gameplay again in what is still a good enough game like MW2. And who knows it could turn a lot of the hatred around into a far more positive light.

The way the game is right now it is simply too n00b friendly. Yes the good players will and do dominate, but the difference between poor and good becomes less because of those unbalanced killstreaks (as Camo said).

I've said this out of this forum too. But not piling the killstreaks up for mine would be a far better system as well because it offers a risk/reward type of system in that you either keep going on a roll to build up your streak or you potentially take a few seconds out to use your killstreak which could stop your momentum. I know that if I'm to get a 7 or so killstreak in a match it will be in quick succession and if I go off somewhere I can just about guarantee that I'll be dead not long after which had broken that streak.

 

[grrofunger]

the only fun i can have with this game at the moment is private FFAs playing things like no scoping snipers only , knives only, shotguns only etc etc

playing with the public is about as fun as shoving a carrot up coxys ass

 

[Richo is God]

Full lobby of aussies except this one american and guess what... the american is host, everyone but him is on red connection for the entire match.. wtf is wrong with this game
