Treyarch, the game occasionally running at 5 fps in high action sequences on XBL really needs to stop when you're the host.

The netcode for this game is fucking atrocious. I've played 5 games this morning, and 4 of them have quit due to being unable to migrate hosts and 1 due to a transmission error. I'm nearing prestige 2 now, and it feels like the number of these errors is getting worse, not better. My connection is rock solid 10meg fibre-optic, so this isn't the cause of it.

He has the stats for them on his page. It's the same damage radius as COD4 and WaW (they never got the stats for the MW2 version apparently) and the kill radius is a couple more feet than the WaW version (he says in a post on his forums that the kill radius is 5m) and that the semtex explosion is the same as the WaW frag explosion.

Kinda ironic considering how identical the two are. Shit, unless you're playing Hardcore, the Enfield should be better in a few ways that probably don't really matter.

ooo, so console version has no server browsing eh? Another reason to pick up PC version guys!
I have no idea how i survived that :lol
Also, akimbo handguns with steady aim are so much better than shotguns, they've got a pretty good range (last kill)

What a fucking douche, you know footage like this would happen if i could finally convince my girlfriend to try play some Call of Duty online with me. Ofc you have your occasional douche that likes to bash on random people.
About a week ago my brother in law gave the Xbox a shot at my place, i told him how to reload and move and i swear to god he could not move and aim at the same time, for a PC user only controllers are a nightmare, im pretty sure he forgot how it was like to play with a controller in the beginning.

I never play Demolition, but I started tonight to unlock my Ninja and Flak Jacket pro perks-and I did awesome!! I was basically the only person planting/defusing the bombs for whatever reason-but in the end I planted the bomb and had to defend it BY MYSELF-I got 7 kills in under 30 seconds trying to defend that fucker!

Guy was what, level 30-40? Hardly someone I'd call new to the game. If it wasn't for how carefully he was sneaking around corners and shit I would've thought he was lagging bad. I'm not a good player by a long shot (a very long shot), but I'd have been embarrassed to have done so badly at level 5 while lagging my ass off. It's not like tools to play any of the maps with bots isn't in the game, you could easily get familiar with how things work and the map layouts without making others have to suffer through carrying you through match after match. Going into a team mode when you're that unprepared is what's douchey, IMO.
While people complaing about knife lunge etc in general, i have been more annoyed with how explosions work in this game :lol

It's funny that didn't kill him. If you look at the clip I posted earlier, the Semtex I threw landed between and killed two people who were way farther away from it than that one guy is from yours.

According to DenKirson, the Galil technically does more damage and has larger clip. But we know it's all about weapon feel, and something about the Enfield has just never felt right to me.
Oh, and can we discuss how pointless the weapon damage differences are in this game? If DenKirson is right, and the fully-auto ARs either go 40-30 or 35-25, those differences don't matter in a 1-on-1 situation - it's still 3-4 bullets. In fact, on paper most of the fully-auto ARs are pretty much exactly the same; the same damage drop-off, similar recoils, etc. Either Treyarch is really lazy, or they're doing something inside the game code that DenKirson's numbers can't catch.

I can't tell from the player model, but is it possible he has Flak Jacket?

Have you been living under a rock? I bet you could count the number of console games with server browsers on your hands.
I've been messing around with the Scavenger/Warlord/TacMask kit with a FAMAS reflex+silencer today and, man, it's really nice! Been getting very high KD's defending our bombs in Demo, while raining explosives towards their spawn. I feel like a total bastard when I toss grenades everywhere, but fuck it, it's what everybody else does anyway. :lol
Weird how it resupplies the crossbow though. I thought the rule was no explosives but nades? I think they could let us resupply the LAW and claymores anyway, it really wouldn't break the game now that Hacker is so useful.
Tossing nades everywhere led to me blowing up a valkyrie mid-air -- apparently there's a medal for destroying a valkyrie :lol -- but I forgot to save it. :/

Indeed, and also you're playing normal TDM as well, my game was in hardcore lol.
divisionbyzorro said:
No idea i should check that out, but even so it is in hardcore mode you get kileld by nades from a mile away, no way in hell he should be able to survive that right? Im guessing it was just a weird clipping glitch.
Been having too much fun playing around in the theater mode. Here's a few good ones.

I was using that combo too, but with an SMG-it totally dominates on Demolition. Oh-and bring Nova Gas-with Warlord Pro, you get an extra one-toss two of those at the bomb site, and whoever is planting/defusing will almost instantly die.

What's the fastest killing assault rifle?
Not necessarily the best, just the one with the fastest killing speed?
I would have guessed Galil or Commando, but everyone on Gamebattles is using the FAMAS or M16 :/

Im tempted to do a wings of redemption style video for a guy I just played with now. This guy killed me when I was on a pretty good spree by literally camping in the weirdest corner of Hanoi ever. I watched the video back and out of an 11 minuite video he killed me twice, once when I wasnt expecting it and once when I went back for revenge. Apart from that he only got 3 more kills, and I killed him like 3 times. HE did die a fourth time to a random teammate :lol
Really, in an 11 minuite match you find it fun to sit there and only play out 9 encounters, half of those being deaths! :lol
The first time I killed him was with a Napalm strike to his weird little camping spot, after that he tried getting back to his spot and I killed him again. He then kept trying weird camping spots around the map, but he didnt seem content until he got back to the furthest corner of the map again. How this is fun for him I dont know, he literally kept looking back and forth while sitting there, but had HUGE periods of not seeing anyone, literally 5 minuites+ at one point, it was quite frankly boring enough to watch. It sucked dieing to him.

I would say the Galil. It's powerful. The Famas only kills quickly because of it's high rate of fire.OMGLOL A LLAMA said:

the real irony is that the guy getting his ass kicked in the game is probably less of a loser in life than some guy who makes CoD training videos on the internet, memorizes the names of all the weapons and uses terms like "rage quit".
Some people just play shit like CoD for fun, and yes it can be fun even if you are getting your ass killed over and over again, I can attest to that.

*sigh* playing on 360, saw a glitcher. Told him not to glitch or he's gonna get banned. He told me "Grow a pair, man! It's just a game. They only ban you for hacking, not glitching."
After the game, him and his friend joined me in my lobby and they started to act all tough to which I said not to threaten me or they'll be crying this Christmas that their 360 doesn't work anymore.
Oh well, I'll make sure they're gone! :lol

I have the game for both 360 and PS3-add me MDavis360 is my name on both. I am a team player.
I just finished the campaign and I have a couple questions:
What is the significance of what he sees in the film strip at the end? What is the meaning that Mason was in the frame with Kennedy and his wife? Why does Dragovich respond "tried?" when Mason says "you made me try to kill my president"

Also according to DenKirson, the Enfield has less recoil with the ACOG and Infrared Scopes, a faster reload time except with Dual Mags (which is the same unless reload canceled which the Galil does a tenth of a second faster), a faster ADS speed, and switches from a secondary weapon faster. It feels the same to me; heck it feels like I can switch between the Enfield, Galil, AK47, and Commando without noticing much difference.
divisionbyzorro said:
Well, the difference between 30 and 25 damage in Hardcore determines whether or not a gun kills in one bullet or two; it also impacts bullet penetration and stuff like three long range shots only needing one pistol round to finish them off if the gun's doing 30 damage and two if it does 25.
But yeah, pretty pointless under most circumstances.
OMGLOL A LLAMA said:
Fastest: G11, M14, and FAL though you'd have to be shooting the semi-auto ones at their RoF cap.
Second Fastest: M16, Famas, and AUG (same number of bullets to kill + higher rate of fire = faster kill time)
Slowest: Enfield, Galil, AK47, and Commando.
That's all within range.
If you're curious, ignoring one-hit kills, Skorpion Rapid Fire's the fastest gun overall when you're within range and the MP5k and AK74u are the slowest out of their range.

They have seriously got to fix the matchmaking. I can't stand playing games with my party where just about the entire other team quits out and the game doesn't fill up, staying 6v2 or 6v1.

i'm getting really tired of being the highest scoring person in the game and on the losing team. Seriously getting tired of it.
