That plus the game itself being retardedly laggy/bad host migration/etc. has led to some frustration. Earlier today I picked up the "have the highest score in 2 games of CTF" and I was on track to meet the contract in my first game. Partway through round 2... host migration... fail. Played the next game, doing good again and on track to have the highest score. Host migration... success? Immediate second host migration.... fail. Tried a third time, started doing decently and then the game decides to lag to all hell and my latency shoots up back 1k (and waiting it out seems to just make it get worse, so I have to quit the match). Then I picked up the "highest score in domination two times" a bit ago and played Ground War and got Hanoi. Doing good, doing good, team is raping them, I'm top of the scoreboard.... connection interrupted... kicked. Go back into Ground War, get the same map, team still rapes the shit out of them, start out 11-0 aaaand... connection interrupted, internet out for five minutes. Fuuuuuuuu.... Also, I have determined that Summit is a retarded map. Launch is also retarded as the game loves to have both teams share the same spawn area on both of those. At least you know to expect idiotic spawns on Nuketown. I hope Treyarch and IW don't have some ongoing bet on who can get away with the worst spawning system or something. In other news, Tactical Mask Pro is taking annoyingly long to unlock. Doubt I'll be able to finish before I prestige as the Flash kills are taking rather long. The nova gas tally didn't get very high pre-prestige, when I was just using it to protect against my own gas. Kinda want to see how it works, though. Both how well it protects against stun/flash and how exactly it 'pings' people hit by your stuns/flashes. Doubt I'll unlock Marathon pro each prestige, either. 26 miles is a lot of running, flag caps can take some time, and Hacker is just so good. | ||

Actually in MW1 it was different than it was in MW2 and now. The way it works now is that any spawn spot is eligible as long as an enemy isn't looking at it. Previously you always spawned with teammates on the other side of the map. Their rationale was to promote more action -_- However, on someone's Twitter they said they were looking into the spawn point complaints. | ||

Go figure... he can have his hand in front of his body or whatever too at the time of shooting, when you shoot and human beings are far from being "perfect" enough to say with certainty exactly where they hit and such especially in the current stutterfest of cod:bo. + ping and such, there are 9million reasons. | ||

Its really annoying when you spawn right in the middle of a bunch of enemies. But besides that enjoying the game the recent patch actually did alot to improve the lag issues (PC version) | ||

I just fucking love it, I managed to do 3500 pts last night, it's my best so far on DOM. I went prestige and I'm already lvl 20 on the next one, I figured I'll go pro marathon and lightweight but some of the achievement are too long to unlock until you hit next prestige again. I also might go for the pro perks that gives you 2 lethal, it's ez to unlock if I remember well and it's so OP on Nuketown. | ||

You have a more general idea of where your team is and where the enemies' team is and there is usually a clear delineation/border between the two. Like on Bloc, Crossfire, Bog, Shipment etc. I don't really mind having to run a little to get to my enemies.. its at least a lot better than spawning where they are. | ||

I don't think it's as bad as some people make it out, you can generally stay completely safe as long as you know the levels, but in some situations it's just BS... like if someone has a chopper gunner on the smaller maps. Have you noticed a glitch on 360 where after you regenerate your health, your screen stays red? That happens to me in almost every game. | ||
