Camping for Killstreaks - The death of Warfare

WARNING! excessive truth ahead

So unless you have been living under a rock for the past forever you will probably played a match or two of Modern Warfare 2.


Sure its the biggest and best game ever released (or so I have been told) I still feel there is a lot wrong with it.

From the second this game was released I would guess that over 90% of the FPS market shifted from COD4 and WaW (try playing them now, there are never more than a few hundred people per playlist) This creates quite a problem for us gamers.



I'm sure that most of you will agree that you have played atleast one match and at some point said 'THAT'S BULLSH*T" at something that has happened to you, you got knifed by the guy you were shooting, you were clearly around the corner when you died and that grenade DEFINITELY followed you... don't get me started on predator missiles (they always aim for me you know)




The hardcore players will easily shrug off these problems - Its just the way the games made - Probably some lag, ah never mind. but to me and you I hope - that just can't be true.

When you look at it, its customizable kill streaks and the option to stack them. every game you get the kid who sits by the bomb with his ACR constantly aimed down sights or the guy in the corner of the room with the silenced UMP.

YES I understand that you don't want to die when you are 1 kill off of your Chopper Gunner but MAN doesn't having to traipse back to kill the same person over and over get a bit boring? that's what this post is getting at - Have any of you tried going back to WaW or 4? the games are just so much more fast paced, you get more kills and more deaths and the game is over before you know it - you don't get people camping because they know once they pass 7 kills that chopper or those dogs are the last thing coming!


now im not saying the way to fix this is to just run and gun in MW2, that would just get you killed by all of the campers! haha just try to have a bit more fun, its a game - not the end of the world

Have fun everybody!

COD: WAW MAP PACK 3

TONY.

well i know this is a little late but... who cares :p. first of all if you hav'nt got this map by now you should because it's awesome 10x better then the others.

To tell the truth in my opinion the thing that makes this worth the money is the the new zombie map DER RIESE which means (The Giant) even though some people thought it meant zombie factory. Anyway this map is very difficult due to the fact it shows COD:WAW & NAZI ZOMBIES in a new way for example you get to upgrade weapons in the PACK-A-PUNCH machine, this increases your guns fire power and speed also DER RIESE has a new way to get around the map with the help of teleporters ( which involves you having to link them to a mainframe) but thats not hard and can be done in earlier rounds.



Apart from that there's a new weapon you can wield, called the MONKEY BOMB ( if you've played left 4 dead and you have seen the pipe bomb it works in the same way). The bomb basically distracts the zombies and lures them to it with it's song and after about 5 seconds it blows up, taking all the zombies with it :P Think pipe bomb from left 4 dead, just happier.


me and the other inbetweengamers say thing same about this map. It's the best outta the 3 and the zombie map is proof of that.

I'll do a review on the online maps since i get a proper chance to play them been spending most of my time on DER RIESE lool.

Modern Warfare 2 becomes Call of Duty again!

JJ

So it's been a while but everyone heard that Modern Warfare 2 had dropped the Call of Duty prefix. Well guess what... It's back!

That's right everyone, Activision confirmed that Call of Duty had been added back to the title, along with what looks like a new box art (which is rubbish by the way ;) )


I much prefer the older Promo case (Which I posted some shots of in an earlier post)

Infinity Ward's Modern Warfare 2 is the direct sequel to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. We have focused our attention on Modern Warfare in order to most effectively communicate the fact that this is the first true sequel in the Call of Duty series. Infinity Ward, the original creators of the Call of Duty franchise, has said from the beginning Modern Warfare 2 resides in the Call of Duty universe. This is reflected in the title's package.

Modern Warfare 2 launch will be massive, expect lots of DLC

http://www.thatvideogameblog.com/2009/05/31/modern-warfare-2-launch-will-be-massive-expect-lots-of-dlc/

During an E3 remarks event moments ago, Activision Blizzard said the November
launch of Infinity Ward’s Modern Warfare
2 will be the largest entertainment launch of any kind when it launches this
November. Prior to that remark, the company also made clear it will be more
aggressive on downloadable content in the future. No details were given but it’s
safe to say with the massive
success the recent World at War DLC, we can expect those maps to keep
rolling in.

That's right everyone. Massive Launch and much more DLC. We will keep you updated on this as it comes.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 NEW Extended trailer

Well here it is, the latest trailer for Infinity Wards highly anticipated Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

The video seems to be mostly if not all in-game footage - If you watch at 1:28 it says "Checkpoint Reached"

The video makes this game look even more great - who can say no to snow-mobile gun fights?
