COD 4 Beta Thread

Smidget said:
Read on charlieoscardelta.com forums this pic has been floating around for over a week for someone who streamed the COD4 beta online and then got banned.

Does it mean that if you got the beta in the wrong way (streamed from a user to another), you are riskin the ban?
 
This game will absolutely separate the teams from the lone wolf salads. I tried to play last night in random team deathmatches and was treated to some pretty stout beatdowns by teams who were feeding off the cannon fodder running out into open spaces. It seemed like one continuous airstrike, helicopter run, and UAV exposure. I hope we can get some GAF teams together soon because I won't jump on for that again anytime soon.

.... that doesn't even make sense. Streaming = displaying the beta online for people to watch him play.
 
You right.
I mean if one got the beta following the trick shown here in GAF (using the account of a friend that owns the beta, blablabla), he should be banned soon, right?

If they are indeed checking gamertags like Majik said yes. But that image is from someone getting banned before the glitch was found.
 
Thanks.

Just let me know.
Getting the game, is it possible to load it just to check how it works without join the online comunity (i.e. creating a server and going around with no people in) or you're obliged to go online to play (test) it?

AFAIK, there's nothing like that you can do, always have to be on Live.
 
The same process has been used to obtain XBLA titles and get into the Halo 3 beta. It's nothing new and i guess we'll find out for sure eventually.

Moving on, the beta hits the UK this Friday so they'll be plenty of nubs to pwn. Now all we need is more maps and a level cap raise :)

But have any of you tried with success the trick explained here?
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=184895&highlight=glitch

I have a friend that is trying to do it but no luck at all.

First have two controllers. Use one of them to sign into the gamertag that needs the beta, and then recover the one that has the beta on the other controller. Then go into download history, highlight the COD4 beta, sign out of the controller with the recovered gamertag and then download with the controller that has the gamertag that needs the beta. That simple.
 
The shotgun sucks but I love it.
I have 2 shotgun classes; one with the grip, flash 'nades, stopping power and steady aim the other with 3 x stun 'nades, juggernaut and extreme conditioning. I seem to get way more kills and larger sprees with the second. The stun 'nades help me get the kills and the extreme conditioning allows me to to get away from cluster fucks occuring across the map.

This game rocks, I'm distributing the beta to some of the guys at my office so I'll be able to play more sociable hours with a party.

I sent you a private message.

Yeah. This has happened to me a couple of times. It sucks.

I would like to play with some more GAF users. I'm getting kind of tired, playing with unfamiliar folk.

Staying inside with the Shotgun FTW!




With the rumored level cap increase on the way does that mean we will see clans in teh beta?

According to the barracks screen your able to get into clans at lvl 12.

Anyone know what the hell the Lvl 55 Prestige mode is?

Even for range, I find the red-dot site more efficient than the ACOG scope. The scope itself obscures too much field of view.
With +bullet damage and deep impact, it's a nasty weapon.
I do think the SAW is too accurate though. In BF2 you need to be prone to accurately aim that thing. In COD 4, you can shoot from the hip and nail it every time.

I really can't play with the red dot..I dont know why .. :|
 
What's up with the M4 and red dot? All I do is shotgun or snipe and it seems like 99% of the time I die and watch the killcam it's someone using that weapon setup and it seems like the gun has like zero recoil, is it that good? Seems kind of pointless to snipe with weapons like that in the game.

The gun does have very little recoil. It does take some skill to aim with it though. It doesn't have nearly as much range as the sniper weapons. M4 also has a smaller clip than the the other assault rifles ( i think). I burn through all my ammo quite frequently.

36 is scrub level. Go 50+ or don't bother. :p

Sorry about the declines btw, was in a party with some others and didn't want to run out. I'm guessing you were in the same boat, since you declined mine as well. :lol

I actually tried to join your party and take my party with me, but the server was full..so :(

By the way you still haven't defeated my 27 kill streak ;).

We should play some games soon though, maybe tonight?

Pfft.. I read the circumstances about your kill streak. Server advantage ftw! :lol I'll take my legit 20 run & gun streak anyday. :p If there was ever a game that needed saved films, it's this one. :/ So much awesomeness going unshared.

Yeah, I'll be online later, but I can't give you a timeframe. Got stuff to do before I head back home, so I'll see what I can do. If not, I'll be on fairly regularly starting Thurs.

Hehe I know, it is pretty unfair but it was still fun haha. I've had some pretty good killstreaks though..

I'll send you an invite when I see you online...

And yes this game does very much need replay saving & sharing..I've had so much awesome kills!!!

Played a TDM with some randoms on Crash. The other team decides to hold up on the roof tower (3rd story building) and pick us off with sniper fire. I flashbang two on the ground floor, kill them with the MP5 and hide in the dead bodies. Someone comes downstairs to investigate and I pop out and stab him in the throat. Afterwards I run outside and kill the first two again while they're trying to run back to the tower. Killed the first with 1/4 clip to the chest, send the second into "last stand" with some leg shots. Then threw a frag into his lap.

Got my kill streak and called in an air strike on the tower, killing 3 people in the process.

Campers owned.

International members, please stay tuned, as news on how you can get a Beta token for your country will be coming next week.

Next week has arrived. How the fuck do I get my TOKEN!
 
Take out Overgrown and replace it with a map people actually want to play :)

I'd love to see the stats on what maps are vetoed the most - I bet Overgrown is #1 by a huge margin.

Overgrown is a really intense map. It has more of a Call of Duty feel than that god awful Vacant map. I swear I hate vacant. Always some asshole running around with nothing but a grenade launcher and others just throwing grenades.

I've never seen anything get vetoed but Overgrown. :lol

If "intense" means snipers hiding in the bushes/barn/on top of the roof across from the broken shed (the new hotness) or people camping the 2nd floor of the building near the wooden bridge (with conveniently only one way to get up there).

And if there's a team game with 3-4 snipers on one team staking out the barn + roof + sniper ridge across from the gas station, you're pretty much fucked.

Then I agree.

Why does everyone hate Overgrown? I think it's fun :x Vacancy is the one I kinda moan at when I get it (but I do play team/deathmatch mostly)...

I've hardly run into any campers on there except one game I played Sunday where there were two snipers hiding near the hay rolls. Otherwise, everyone is usually moving from house to house stalking each other.

I agree, I don't like Overgrown for some reason.
Most people I've encountered online seem to agree. Strangely, I've also encountered people who refer to it as the "Nazi Death Camp" map.
 
In my experience, Overgrown has the most problems with campers in both single and team deathmatch (see other posts on that). It's also very spread out and ... well crap, it just plays like ass in my opinion. Last night it was vetoed EVERY SINGLE TIME it came up in my party :) It was the best night of gaming ever.

Now, lets not say that the other maps have problems as well - Vacant has some ridiculous spawnrape locations you can exploit if you are not in team deathmatch and is a grenade fest, and Crash also has some building camps people like too much. But neither of those have the systemic, almost exploitive, problems of Overgrown with people who don't want to play fair.
