The truest statement in this whole thread probably. The 1887s primarily bother me because of the title of the game. The knife because I like to play a mid-long range game.
why all the hate for derail? i like that map. i'm so f'ing tired of scrapyard and afgan, i hope i never play them again.
for my 3rd prestige, i'm trying to leave myself really close to some of the 10,000 xp prestige awards (kills with the m4, for example) so i can get them quickly and level up in a hurry when i start out again. it should work, right?

No doubt there's some truth to this, but sometimes maps are just disliked because they genuinely aren't fun to play on, simple as that.
I mean, look, I'm pretty average at the game, nothing special. I'll man up and admit that. Even on maps I like and get waxed on though, I still have a good time - because they were fun to play on. When I lose, I don't get mad, I just realize I need to play more and step up my game. But Derail, for example, wasn't fun for me even when I would be doing alright. All of my friends back out of the game whenever it comes up now too, we all hate it. It's just a shit map, dude.

I also hate Derail, it feels poorly designed. We really need a map pack already, for people that have sunk days into this game these maps are getting somewhat stale. I hate that the 360 has a 30 day exclusivity, what does that accomplish exactly? Does microsoft think that all of my friends are going to buy a copy on the 360 so they can get the DLC early?

Link to where they said it was 30 days?

Derail is a strange map. I commonly get my ass handed to me for most of the match and randomly pull out a 10+ killstreak in the last couple of minutes.

I don't think I've EVER hated a map as much as I hate Estate. Who's fucking bright idea was it for one team to spawn at the top of a fucking HILL? I got a six kill streak on ground war picking off all the others trying to hightail it up to the cabin.

I have two brothers who are way better than me also playing the game.TacticalFox88 said:
We've actually been playing a lot less. We've dropped over 1000 spots on the leaderboards since my last screen shot, and that screen shot was after we had dropped 500 spots. We'll never get up to 1883 again. =(
Oh well.

I would have probably bought the 360 one but I hate wires and using the battery pack causes my palms to cramp pretty bad. More importantly my friends on 360 only play a handful of games and for some reason the majority of them like Gears 2 over CoD. I have a much closer knit group of friends on PS3 that I play very frequently with, so unless I could convince all 3 of them to buy 360's and the game, and live, and the map pack, then its pretty much a no go for me. I have a couple friends that double dipped on CoD, incedientally both of them hardly play the game on either console, I just can't see how this is an advantage for microsoft. It really boils down to who you play the game with and if those people aren't on 360 why wouldn't I wait 30 days for it?
@prestige 10 talk above; I think you are refering to a quote from Bowling, where he said prestiging in general "changes" the game. It does with the challenges, that and exclusive emblems/titles to prestige, I am pretty sure this is what he meant, you could always tweet at him to find out exactly what he was referring to. AFAIK prestige 10 nets you a fancy ass'd emblem that is the rotating skull and is very shiny.
CSB you are a sick motherfucker, I showed one of my friends your stats last night and actually got into an argument because he thought they were hacked, despite me telling him I've seen your stats grow from 0 and monitored them on a regular basis. He replied with "there are ways" I just facepalmed and shut up about it.

I got a similar message on PS3 after I went 53-2 in domination on Estate one time. I was going in and out of the cabin and going through the greenhouse making rounds guarding A.
Anyways, the message said I must be a girl because "no guy can't hide that good." :lol

WoW was a bad example and i did not mean that we would get patching at the same scale as WoW but at-least in the same manner. Many many other games this generation has way better updating than MW2. I am not demanding 3 pages long patch notes, but at-least some small tweak that does not have to do with glitches. Just to show that they can actually do it and cares.
With the amount of time i put in this game i would not be disgusted by the idea of paying a small monthly fee to indeed get the exact same treatment as WoW. But then i am one of those that play this game very much, having 25 days at COD4.
I like the idea of the game evolving post-release.

A word on the single player campaign!
I've only gotten up to the 3rd level or so of the single player mode of this - just got past the bit where you're running through
. That bit at the end where your team mate dives through the window to catch the guy running away was awesome. The way the radio chatter makes it seem as if you ran round the corner at exactly the right moment to see that was excellently done. Call of duty games have always offered the best on-rails experience and this (so far) seems no different.

Any reason I can find green Australian games 90% of the time when searching Mosh Pit but less than 1% of the time searching anything else?

One hit kill anywhere apart from hands and feet with stopping power, the extra bit of accuracy also means that you will get alot more kills and less hitmarkers than the barrett.
I personally use the barrett for thermal sniping duties and the intervention with FMJs for normal play

Decided to hold off on getting all of the silver titles; the Vector and the FAL are guns I don't seem to do well with.
Also, my play style seems to have switched on me again; bad at SMG running but not too terrible at sniping now. Could be the guns, even though I'm getting used to the P90 over the MP5k. The Barrett, though, just seems better than the Intervention since I'm almost 100% hard scoping with random bursts of speed randomly.
Close to getting the FAMAS emblem now. After that, I'll just to the M16A4 until I get to 60 and go for my second emblem.
I don't even use these titles but I still want them. :/

I'm closing fast on my first level 70 now and am curious about how the whole thing works.
I'm close to clearing all challenges for the M16A4 and was wondering if I should try to clear them before prestiging, considering I'm so close - or is it pointless to complete all challenges before prestiging once?

I'm still having enough random spurts of inspired gameplay to keep me coming back to MW2 from time to time, but the rampant glitch exploitations and gimmicky tactics only seem to be getting worse as time goes on.

That's a really really good idea. Right now stuns and flashes are just going to get you killed 90% of the time. Might as well put up a giant "look over here, I'm coming" sign up instead of using them. Couple that with the uselessness of frags in terms of damage and quantity and you got yourself a recipe for an obsolete tactic. I should have just noob tubed the wall that you threw the flash at, because if an enemy isn't 4 feet from where the flash explodes then it's not going to do the trick, anyway.
I found flashes are even more useless against enemies that are peaking behind cover (ala camping in good spots). I've had flashes pop right in front of me and it barely does anything. The guy comes out thinking he got me cause he knows exactly where I am....nope. Pew Pew. Try again. Next time try a braindead no-skill tactic that works in this game.
