I am sooo terrible at this game.

It just seems that EVERYONE reacts faster or their guns only take 2 shots to kill (I'm looking at you POS m16.)

I just don't understand it. I'm not NEW to FPS or anything like that but holy crap I just can't seem to get a 1:1 KD ratio like ever. Maybe it's knowing the maps or maybe it's just the fact that MW2 is the first COD game i've ever played but yea holy crap do I suck at it.


0_o

I concluded that MW is popular because it's constantly feeding you rewards no matter how terrible you are.

Anyone can have a positive ration on this game. Tell me when try CS.

I've played CS for an absurdly long time and I'm rather decent at it. I generally get 3:1 or 4:1 KD ratios on CS and this in higher level skill servers.

The reward thing is good too in some cases but it also makes it a pain in the ass to get raped by m16's all the time when your poor m4 can barely keep up


MW was a fun game -- but it's clear that there are aiming at the casual FPS player who isn't too skilled and probably plays with a console controller.

The ranks, the weapons, the perks, the regenerating health, the streaks, the constant number "+X" popping up every time you get a kill -- it's all put in there to make everyone feel like they are actually accomplishing something no matter how terrible they are.

It hooked me too for a while... Then I hit 55 and I was really concerned that every pub was just a spray fest that I had already mastered. In CS, I would always come across some really good players who would just stomp me and I'd get really motivated to try to perfect my aim and mechanics in order to defeat them.

But in COD4 it's just stupid how easy it is to kill anyone (not talking number of hits). And the competitive scene is an embarrassment.

That's why I played CS for 6 years, and COD4 for 2 months. Once you get past all the petty rewards, you realize the actual shooting has no depth what so ever.

And then a $10 charge for a couple maps? LOL. Damn Activision is making bank.

You guys are dumb. If your ratio is high then someone else's is low. The game only feels easy because millions of people bought it so there are a lot of casual gamers.

Yes your logic is sound, but it's obvious in playing the game that the developers cater to gamers of lesser skill. Take for example the new addition of the Death Streak. Specifically Pain Killer:

"Hey guys, we know you're mostly all terrible at the game, so here's a bonus for you: When you're getting your ass handed to you by gamers that actually know what they're doing, we're going to give you an extra boost of health that should give you the edge over those pesky 'pro gamers' that are pwning up your casual experience."

Seriously, when I shoot someone and that little pill icon pops up that lets me know that my bullets just got nullified by the opponent's boost in health, I can't help but feel like I'm being punished for being good at the game. It's not MY fault you suck at first person shooters.

Oh, and YOU'RE dumb. lol. Can we argue about a game without having our intelligence insulted?

Exactly.

Having extra health for 10 seconds is nothing compared to sentry guns, airstrikes etc....

Meh, I thought we were talking about the casual player, which is why I brought up the death streaks.

But sure, the new kill streaks are ridiculous. I like the chopper gunner. Although how often is a random kid off the street going to get a 7+ kill streak?

And Jesus YOU'RE whiny. Couldn't help but resort to personal attacks huh? That's ok.

Eh no.

I find portions of the game insanely imbalanced. AC130's/Imba1887's/m16's are all rather on the ridiculous side. AC130's shit flares like candy so you can barely shoot one down unless your ENTIRE TEAM is coldblood anti air. 1887's..nothing needs to be said. Called nub tubes for a reason. M16's you actually have to aim but they only take two shots to kill anyone. Pub wise the game is easily geared toward a casual gamer. The way the point system works attests to this.

I have since moved on to Hardcore where you actually run into people that don't just spray the shit out of anything and I'm actually performing BETTER now that I have a good idea just what the hell the opponents are doing and why.

Pubs are hard because nothing pubs do makes sense.

lol deathstreaks are an absolutely horrible counterpart to killstreaks
in terms of power I mean
copycat is a huge joke (except maybe when you're leveling up, but then again you shouldn't have a 1:4-1:5 KD ratio either)
painkiller is ridiculously situational because anyways if you're getting spawncamped 300% hp for 10 seconds isn't going to give you enough time to get out of fire
martyrdom is...well if you enjoy being a suicide bomber sure go ahead and run in the enemy lines. it's nowhere as imba as CoD4 though
and final stand is rofl.

i find spraying and flying through the air John Woo style works even better in hardcore since everything is a 1-shot kill.

i don't get the point of hardcore, some guy at IW probably said "hey lets give everyone 30 health, remove the HUD, and call it 'realistic' so people will play it."

still, MW2 is a fun pub game/timesink despite all the gayness that goes on.
<Wolfpox> i remember when MVP beat that one guy, and everyone was like 'whoa' except that penguin dude.
