"^which map?"

I forget the name. very small and square. It has a big industrial complex in the center with a very tall tower that you take a 3 story ladder to get to the top of. Once you get to the top, you pretty much win the game as long as you have the ammo clip sufficient to get kills. The M16 has plenty since it is a one shot kill (in 3 round burst). place the flare at the top of the ladder. if by chance you do get killed, you'll be respawned to the best place in the map.

BTW: How awesome is this. My wife was off the two days I took off work to play this game. During those two days, no bitching, no complaining, and she was bringing me food and drink all day

11/12/2009 4:24:27 PM

So let me get this straight, you and your wife were off work for two days at the same time.

And you played video games the whole time.


but on another note, I, too, have dropped a supply crate right on my head.

11/12/2009 4:27:30 PM

^^ yikes man put down the controller and turn off the xbox. How long have you played already?

I have not dropped a supply crate on my head but I did kill someone by hitting them with the smoke canister that calls for packages.

11/12/2009 4:33:16 PM

She has an odd schedule. She just happened to be off these two days. I had these two days off for 3 months in advance, and she knew well ahead of time that those two days were dedicated to the game. I am flying her on a mini vacation this weekend, and Im not taking the xbox, so she has her quality time with me for the week planned.

I think I have about 16 hours in on 'maticwin'. I have probably 5 hours on 'CarZin' but I dumped that account due to poor initial performance.

OK so I have been playing multiplayer since I got the game, however today I called in sick and played the actual game. The game itself is awesome but does anyone else feel like the ending was a bit blah? What I mean is obviously it's leaving off for a 7th installment to the series but I feel like there should be at least one more mission?

Maybe I missed something or I forgot but can someone please tell me why Cpt. Price was in "prison"?

Nope all good...story behind that is you know with multiplayer it always says your were killed by [insert name]. Well a drunkin night of CoD4 with the guys inspired the gamer tag, we found it funny as hell when it popped up and said you were killed by herpgonasflaids

my buddy and i were playing evasion (the snow level with sniper rifles)...
we both have bluetooths so we were coordinationg. We would both target our scopes on 2 different guys, count to 3, and shoot. pretty awesome

Well, just ponied up the extra cash and grabbed the prestige edition so I could get cheap NVGs.

what do you not like about it? on the famas in particular??

11/12/2009 11:44:35 PM

i think the famas is the only one i have with 3 shot burst i'm still using the M4 till i unlock the rest of the attachments. anyways it seems like one of my bullets always seems to go like 40 feet away from the rest of them or some shit, and it handles a lot more like single shot, then again i've never handled a real gun with 3 shot burst so every game i've ever played before could just be wrong.

11/12/2009 11:46:32 PM

i feel like the famas has more recoil with red dot than with iron sights or acog. ive been using it all night

11/12/2009 11:54:15 PM

Irritating day, but I finished with 96 win streak. I unlocked the chopper gunner position and on the very first game got an 11 kill streak. Pretty awesome.

11/12/2009 11:59:53 PM

I'm currently going with 4 package, 5 sentry gun and 8 packages.

next unlock i'm probably going to get chopper gunner. I suck ass at this game and its very frustrating i haven't played MW in a while but last time i remember playing i was typically going like 9:1 on average. this fucking 1:1 bullshit is really really getting to me.

^^He's just a camping whore like anyone else that brags about their awesome K/D.

11/13/2009 2:56:58 AM

the thermal scope is pretty cool, but is useless on smaller maps. I guess i'm just not a scoper in general. I never snipe and rarely use the ACOG.

and with sniping, i've never really been able to get the hang of it. I always look at the kill cam when i die from a sniper and it always seems like they are shooting 2 feet from above me or behind me and still hit me, but when i try to fire around that range i miss. I guess i'm just too slow with the rifle

11/13/2009 8:13:16 AM

I to am not big on sniping. I've done it more in MW2 but still not my thing. As for the ACOG goes it blows. I hate the damn things.

11/13/2009 9:17:49 AM

I finally got re-acclimated with the flow of the game after several hours last night. My first few games I was doing terrible and feared I had "lost it", but thankfully it turned out I was just a little rusty. And it reminded me that board knowledge is paramount. Your first few games on each map and you're running around out of control. Its chaos, and you have no idea where your enemies are coming from. But after 4-5 games on a particular level, you start to find all the hot spots and start to perform much better. I'm not going to swing my dick around like some people on here and claim 9-1 ratios or 96 win streaks, but I'm probably a 1.5 player in my prime, and I'm approaching that ratio after my fecal start.

I've been doing mainly free for all so far and you only really play about 7 boards. Rust, Afghan, Terminal, Estate, Favela, Highrise, and Scrapyard. I've gotten a good feel for all those, and the tower Carzin mentioned in Rust is crucial. If you can get up there and plant your tactical insertion, you can consistently go 20-6, 22-8, 19-5, etc.

And Hardline is by far the best perk I've come across thus far...2 kills for UAV ? Thank you sir

11/13/2009 9:26:10 AM

I'm not really a camper. If you dont believe me, add me as a friend and join game in progress. Dont really care either way.

"i get the feeling you could possibly be on that A&E TV show 'Intervention'"

Possibly. Everytime I get a new game, I play the hell out of it, then I can go months without playing anything. Everytime I stop playing the game, it costs me money. Last year, when I stopped playing call of duty 4, it was a big remodel where I spent close to 20k on projects on the house. When I got sick of WAW, I remodeled the upstairs guest bathroom. So, basically, playing the xbox saves me a lot of money

[Edited on November 13, 2009 at 9:38 AM. Reason : .]

11/13/2009 9:36:09 AM

In defense of CarZin it's pretty tough to camp in Free-for-all and consistently win games..like 96 in a row. You have to run around and find people to be able to win the game.

Ive been playing MTD because free-for-all gives so few experience points per game compared to the other game types, and Im doing well in it. Managed to go ~ 29-6 for about 5 games last night (after a slow start) with most of the kills coming from the AC-130 gun. Almost finished with the M4A1 challenges and started messing with the SCAR some.

We need to get a bunch of TWWers in a team deathmatch game at some point.

11/13/2009 10:07:52 AM

After X-mas, then after I play through the Single Player I'll be happy to oblige. That is if I'm not practicing for Tekken 6 at PAX East.

11/13/2009 10:12:38 AM

ok i dont know too much about assault rifles but is there any reason why the AK47 is the last one you unlock all the way at level 70? I know they are solid weapons known for their build and craftsmanship. But on COD4 i thought it was one of the hardest guns to use and seemed to have a lot of recoil which made it tough. Doesn't seem like a gun i'll really be thrilled to use at level 70.

Then again i guess that was the same with the M14 on COD4. It had a lot of recoil and i rarely used it.

11/13/2009 10:30:41 AM

I average about 4700 points every FFA game. And thanks for the defense. It is very true, that if you solely camp in FFA, you will not win most games. You can on a few, but not most. It requires you to go hunting.

11/13/2009 10:31:11 AM

I don't get any of the unlocks

AA12 comes before old ass shot guns? yeah they're cooler but in actuality you'll fuck way more people up with an AA12 than a sawed off if you're running through rooms in a building

I'd rather the developers not give a huge tactical advantage to the people who played the game for 48 hours straight this week. Give everyone something decent to start with and reward them for playing smarter, not for being leveled up.

11/13/2009 10:50:40 AM

i would agree with you if there weren't 4.7 million people with this game.

I don't even pick UAV because its almost ALWAYS up since everyone else thinks hardline+uav is the shit. I used it to get hardline pro because i could just get 2 kills easily with a grenade everytime i spawned.

I still use the UMP almost exclusively. You get that right of the gate. I have played around with some other weapons, and as players get better, I'll have to adjust, but for now its the best gun in the game for me.

The M16 is great, but if you miss, you're fucked.

11/13/2009 11:03:17 AM

don't miss. I can shoot the wings off a fly with the M16 in cod4

i'm about 20 kills away from full mastery of the FAMAS, the other burst fire gun. I hated it at first, but after sticking with it i really enjoy it. I'll revert back to the M4 and UMP and master those next. I never touch light machine guns. not my play style.

dude...the AK47 was the best gun in cod4.

11/13/2009 12:12:50 PM

Yeah, that and the M16 were the weapons to use. Both are unlocked a lot higher in this game. Personally, I didnt care for the AK, but I probably will try and use it.

BTW: Got my ass handed to me twice in Rust last night. My strategy didnt work with the tower. People are finally catching on

You should never be posting 'I'm 20 kills away...' from anything because you should still be playing if you are that close This is why I stay up until 3 or 4 because I'm always like 'oh shit i'm 1000xp away from lvling...one more round!' haha
