The patch didn't happen to fix the pavelow not adding onto your killstreak?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the situation with the Pavelow is if you get the Pavelow with another killstreak (Harrier Strike, Chopper, Airstrike), the Pavelow's kills won't accumulate to grant you another killstreak. On the other hand, if you get the Pavelow via regular means without a killstreak, the kills will contribute to your next killstreak.

I don't know. It just needs to work like all other air support that doesn't come from care packages.

From what I heard, pavelow kills only contribute to killstreaks if it's the 1st one called in the game. Never tested it though.

Finished playing 20+ TDM matches, didn't see a single case of infinite CP or even a CP runner. Still see quite a few people using Bling 1887s, something tells me they don't know it's been patched.

Not Cold Blooded Pro. The Pro version makes it so your name doesn't appear to your enemy which I would think would make it so it doesn't aim assist onto him.

just tested it in splitscreen, some aim assist is definately still there. it doesn't drag your aim away when a coldblooded guy runs through your crosshair, but the sensitivity slowdown when he is near your crosshair is still there.

Is it just me or it's as if the game has slowed down quite a bit considering they got rid of those runners? A good thing for sure.

Okay i am sure drunk its 2 am, i just wanna say that anyone wanna play w me and some other EU pros can PM me.

The carepackage/emergency glitch is terrible. Been facing it all yesterday. So annoying since you the carpackage glitch is really hard to nice,

Is there a mod here? I know he's a junior, but can we tag him with "should never post drunk?"

 

[Dresden]

Most drunk posts are fake. This is statically proven.*

*May not be correct.

Sight is only on the shotgun because I didn't unlock grip yet. As for red dot, I just can never seem to master any iron sights, but I may try.

Keep in mind that attachments do stuff to weapons that is not mentioned in the in-game descriptions. I believe sights on shotguns messes with the pellet spread, which is something you don't want. You should only put on attachments you actually use, and that goes for all weapons.

 

[rodvik]

Why the hell do people silence their shotgun? They already have no range why make it worse?

For me in HC, its one shot one kill anyway and most good players are playing with headphones so the silencer has a noticeable effect.

For range the UMP in that build is a beast at long/med/short range so the silenced shotgun is just for turning corners in enclosed spaces or room clearing. Works a treat.

 

[rodvik]

Heh, at the risk of sounding like a noob I'm using.

ACR + Nade Launcher (I prefer the ACR from the SCAR, the latter has such a big recoil I have trouble if I miss the first bullet. Nade launcher for cleaning out the occasional stronghold filled with enemies.)
SPAS + Grip (Great secondary weapon with good damage and long range. Great to switch to when you go inside buildings)

Claymore (Mostly to protect me from being backstabbed)

Marathon Pro (I keep moving constantly so I found it useful)
Hardline Pro (Getting my Predator Missile with the fourth kill instead of fifth makes a world of difference.)
Ninja Pro (I hate people hearing me)

Nice build. Suggest experimenting with other shotguns outside of the SPAS. Its a >great< shotgun to be sure but IMHO its best paired with a long long range only primary AND it has a reload time that is just a hair too short to kill a last stand guy who you drop with it. With your ACR you can probably go for a higher ROF shotgun.

First match as tenth prestige: "I bet you hacked that."
Fff...

So aren't you supposed to get something more than just a title, emblem and icon for going tenth? What the fuck is it? I didn't get squat.

 

[Mileena]

Not to be a dick, but I'd assume the same thing. Props for getting it legit though. I'm 5th prestige on both PS3 and 360 so if you add it up I'm actually 10th prestige too!

 

[Nelo Ice]

id beilieve ur 10th prestige since ur leveling up

the obvious cheaters at least are the ones that are already lvl 70

Nice. I love the 9 lives title.

 

[grap3fruitman]

Nice. I love the 9 lives title.

The tenth prestige emblem and title suck so hard, it's not even funny. I don't know what Infinity Ward was thinking. Of course they don't even care to fix the kerning on the type all over the fucking game either and just said "whatever" to everything. The tenth title is just that gold thing with the two skulls on the sides and it says "Tenth Prestige." Could they have gotten any fucking lazier? Damn it. >=(

 

[Red Blaster]

I think I have to get rid of this or else I'm going to hurt someone. The dumb fucking monkeys at Infinity Ward can't make a decent matchmaking system to save their life anymore. What the fuck happened between CoD4 and MW2?

 

[careful]

Shotgun question:

Is it better not to equip steady aim? I'm thinking the larger the pellet spread, the better the chances of connecting with the target. Grip would only affect recoil, right?

Been playing around with the SPAS and it's been really fun. You feel like such a bad ass running around with that thing. I need to try the M1014. The semi-auto might actually be better for me.

I'm not sure what your circumstances are, but I'm of the opposite opinion. Because I live in a country where the internet is, to put it lightly, fucking abysmal, it was a challenge to find anything that wasn't a 1 bar game. Now I never have to worry about adjusting for lag again. Although I really hope IW patch in a regional search function at some stage, but its unlikely :/

My issue is that he teams are NEVER balanced. I'm the only 1000+ scorer on my team, the other squad has 4 1000+ scorers. At the end of every round, I keep waiting for the teams to be evened up a bit as it's clear based on the scores that things aren't exactly fair. Alas, this never happens as the wonderful Infinity Ward Matchmaking System™ just carries on and continues to put mostly the same players on the same team.

I used to be a strong believer in the AA-12 but ever since I started using the M1014 I can't use anything else. As for using Steady Aim, I find it doesn't have any benefit unless it's for the SPAS where your accuracy matters or using Akimbo Models/Rangers which are shit. Besides, you shouldn't have to use your Secondary that often and use perks solely for your Secondary.

What Level/Prestige are you? Is it just an issue of always being put on teams with underleveled players or people who just plain suck?

The latter. I've had multi-prestiged guys on my team just blow ass.

Have you tried Mercenary TDM? No parties allowed and teams are rebalanced after every game.

 

[Tamanon]

Well, made it to level 42 now, LOVE the M16 and learning the Ranger. I definitely like how much rarer the airborne killstreaks are now that folks can't just spam care packages. Although oddly enough, I've seen 4 legit nukes thus far today. Was a good time earlier on a Team Deathmatch on Highrise, when I jacked an opponent's Pavelow and got 9 kills off of it.

I carry a silenced shotgun when I snipe. Stealthy kill and I can reposition without pinging on the radar.

Chopper Gunner was absolutely owning, so I got lucky! But no camping bullshit involved, so I'm proud

I'm pretty sure the CP glitch has been fixed since the 1.08 patch. (At least the speed boost one, not sure about the infinite airdrop one)

whooo

Was just playing a game of Ground War when the enemy had called in 2 Emergency airdrops on opposite ends of the map. I was like oh shi- but then remembered I'd just racked up 2 of my killstreaks- Predator and Harrier Strike. So I sent 1 to each location and needless to say the board lit up with multi kills. Immediately called in my Pavelow and work was done.

Good stuff.

 

[SumPog]

Discussing Brand New in a Call of Duty thread isn't really ideal, do you have last.fm or something. They are such a awesome band
