COD 4 Beta Thread

So, do the points we aquired after we hit level 11 count towards the current cap?

I highly doubt it. If so, most of us would prob automatically jump to 16.

I'll be happy to progressively level up once again.
 
This game is too good, glad it coming out month or two after halo3, or else I wouldn't know what to play.
 
The full version also has a lot more lovin' with additional maps, gametypes, a much higher level cap, and all sorts of other goodies.

* Free-for-All

Does anyone know what the max level on the actual game will be? I'm quite scared at how easy it is to level up.
I don't think any official number has been released yet. There's been rumors of it being around 75, but I have no idea where that comes from - someone probably just made it up on the interwebs. I would guess (and hope) that it's a little more difficult to level up in the full version of the game.

Yeah, I'm hoping at least twice as hard to level up. I wouldn't mind up to 4x longer. Because at the Beta pace some people will max out after a week or two.

At the very least it goes into the 50s, since, in the beta, there is Prestige mode, which is unlocked at 52 or so.

is the game still balanced at the higher levels?
I don't think there are balance problems at higher levels from what I've seen so far. It certainly gives you a bit more flexibility when you unlock weapons and perks as you level up, but they aren't significantly more powerful in most cases. The better players tend to score more kills and win more matches regardless of their current ranks. Just my opinion...

can't believe I'm finding myself using the AK as my main weapon now

I absolutely hated this thing in the beginning but I've really grown to like it :lol
 
Cornballer said:
What attachments/perks are you using with it?

standard ironsights
last stand
stopping power

not very impressive on paper but boy oh boy does it get the job done :lol

Same here. The AK is just so damn powerful. I find myself getting multiple wall kills without deep impact.
 
The AK is fun. I was screwing around with it last night for a while. It's nice having something with a fair amount of power, but I have to get used to the recoil.

Does anyone else think the last stand points are a little screwy? 20 pts for a kill in last stand seems like a lot, and only getting 2pts if you put a guy down but don't finish him (because someone else steals the kill) seems like too little.

As far as I know, the 20pts do not count towards the overal score, right? Also, 2pts for assist sound good enough, but at least 5 would be perfect. Oh well... I just owned a whole clan... i am on a roll now =p. The other team was mad at me, if it wasn't for me the battles would have been leveled out or either won by the "clan" team. I love this game lol

Last Stand pts count towards final score.

Yeah, they need to fix that. I hate getting my kill points stolen when someone else finishes them off when they are in Last Stand.

Uzi has fucking ruined Vacant.

Sniper ruins Overgrown.

Crash is the only semi-playable map now.

Way to fuck up your own game, IW.

Everything has a counter, you just gotta be smart and get around it, like take the long way around, or as I do in overgrown with multiple snipers... I either bring the fight to them or I snipe the bastards from afar. Geesh, so much whining =P

Silenced MP5, or M4 with UAV Jammer and Extreme conditioning, great for overgrown. Just watch your radar, and get behind the snipers, easy kills.

Vacant, I prefer using the Uzi for close quarters, but sometimes I like using the M16 and staying outside, picking off guys.
 
Just played Overgrown. No-one on our team could get out of the spawns.
Constant barrage of explosives, through wall bullets and helicopters / airstrikes.

It's a whole lot easier than fucking up someone else's game. What with all the source code & data being in-house.


:lol Anyways i dont get the overgrown hate personally. Its my favorite map
 
I don't like the Micro Uzi. That being said, I don't think it's overpowered or anything. In fact I'm pretty bad with it. Has a crazy kick. The MP5 is better in my opinion. Anyway, gave myself a GAF clan tag.
 
Hey I just found out that players from France can now get a key for the beta. Just got to http://www.cod4beta.fr/ and you'll get the info. Unfortunatly I don't live in France and I don't have a 360 so I can't participate to the beta.
The game looks great =(

the respawn system is BAH ROKEN. It sounds good in theory, spawn near teammates, but it doesn't work. If you and the other team get into a fire fight near each other, you constantly are respawning within like 5 feet of enemies. It's horrible. And if your team gets holed up, or caught under an airstrike, it's like extra kills for them because (after an airstrike) you get instantly respawn usually right where the strike goes off cause other teammates are there.
 
Right, so I got in through the Eurogamer giveaway. Was all cheery and stuff, until I got the mail saying that the first keys were being sent out on monday.

And I was so anticipating ripping up CoD4 through the weekend. Ugh :(
 
The point system seems to reward suicide runners. I hate that when I have 19 kills and 3 deaths, the guy on top has to boast about being number one when he has 20 kills and 18 deaths. I'm sorry, but if it were not for my "SWAT" tactics we would have easily lost the match thanks to "Mr. 18 deaths."
 
Yeah, that's another minor problem that I have. Maybe they could put in a bonus point system at the end of every round based on your +/- or your KPD ratio.
