What exactly is that?
I've only been playing the MP portion of the game for a little over a week now and I too have seen those guys running around like the Flash, knifing everyone in site, I'm like WTF kind of shit is that?
I also want to know how the opposing team gets 2 harriers, an attack chopper and 2 turrets up in the first 1 1/2 min of the game as well.
Yeah, I know I whine and moan about things a lot in this game, but seriously, this "Flash" thing is seriously flawed. Some of the stuff, (like noob tubes) while annoying, at least seems like a reasonable part of the game. Superman with a knife wading through bullets? Not so much.
You know, I hadn't given that much thought before, but now that you mention it, I see what you mean. I remember seeing a predator missle just moments into the match and I was wondering how that could happen so fast.
At the risk of starting a console flame war, I have to say, I don't know if the level of talent is a lot higher on the 360 or what, but I'm getting my ass handed to me. I played the PS3 version for about 2 hours earlier tonight and I held my own with a positive K/D ratio for the night. Came back an hour ago to play the 360 version. Good Lord I got slaughtered.
Folks on 360 play with mics, PS3 folks do not. This allows a far greater degree of coordination. I have no idea if the teams you were coming up against were actively talking to each other, but it seems like a reasonable assumptions.
As to the infinite care package glitch, you get your care package grenade, find a climb-able piece of terrain and hit right on the D-pad as you're climbing it. Throw your grenade, get your package, use it. Bam, you have another grenade ready to throw. This is why in some games you'll see a constant stream of aircraft and predators raining down.
It is also do-able with emergency airdrops.

Climbable as in you have to press the climb button to vault over a crate or a ledge or whatever?
Well here is the funny thing, on xblive i get in a lot more games loaded with American players, and because they mostly end up hosting the game that's it, forget about hitting anything but the floor, your toast, they are not only better but their connections just destroy our poor excuse for a Internet over here i the UK........But on the PSN i seem to get more euro/UK players and i cant believe how many Scottish people seem to end up in the same room....why this is i have no idea, but like you said i am doing a lot better on the PS3 version than the 360 version where my ass gets handed to me constantly.
Was handing out some Booster Justice earlier on. These 3 losers kept meeting up in the same place on Afghan, so I noob tubed them into oblivion. They left the game, so I followed them into a game on Sub Base where they tried to do the same thing, so I noob tubed them all over the map again. I got some not very friendly messages, then they logged off. 
Fuckin losers.
Fuckin losers.That's probably some of it, but I've also noticed some of the weapons behave differently. For example, in the PS3 version, I'm decent with the SPAS shotgun (it's easily my weapon of choice). But I'm discovering in the 360 version, that it's not as powerful. Therefore I'm getting killed more, and getting less kills because the shotgun isn't getting the job done.
Plus I've also noticed the flow of the games just seems different. On the PS3 version, on any given map, you can almost predict with certainity where the majority of the action will take place. They seem to flow differently on the 360 and I guess even though I know the maps, I haven't got the 360 way of doing things down pat yet.
Hmm, everything I've read has all the MW2 weapon mechanics being universal across all platforms. What you might be noticing is the patch delay that Microsoft has imposed on XBL. PC and PS3 will get patches first, sometimes by a week or two, while Microsoft clears the patch to get put on XBL. But I don't think any patch has effected the SPAS.
As to the care package glitch, there are several "How-To" videos on Youtube that you can easily find, which will teach you how to do it. But yes, you hit right on the D-pad twice as you climb a road barrier, car hood, ledge, anything that you have to push A(I think it is A) to climb over.

Well I can tell you there are definitely differences in the two consoles, and it's just not visually. I was playing the 360 version on Quary and there were some nearby barrells exploding around me that I'd NEVER seen happen on the PS3. Same thing on Afghan. I don't know about the weapons for sure, but it sure seem that way to me.
And it occurred to me that in the process of "nerfing" the 1887, maybe they'd changed the SPAS too but when I went back to the PS3 version, I seemed to be more effective with it. So I don't know what the deal is, maybe it's some other inexplicable reason, but it's definitely different between the two consoles.

Man, I've been having so much fun looking for these loser boosting fuckers in games. I'm damn sure I've made a few online enemies in the last 24 hours due to me following them from game to game and ruining their booster fun. I even got a message off one guy offering to get me to 10th Prestige for free if I agreed to stop following him and his pals.
I told him to go fuck himself. He logged off.

Huh, I wonder how bad the booster problem is on PC... if I can find the buggers, I might screw around with them too. I'll just put it on my list of hobbies, right behind camper hunter.

The Pro over at Microsoft went to a major glitchers website, tracked their forum posts and banned(not suspended) about 75% of them. Last night I only had one turd using the CP glitch all night. MS and IW are teaming up and going after Prestige boosters in a big way right now. No suspensions-full on console bans. Here's some cool posts:

^^^The "I was sleeping" one is pure class.
Good lord, the idiocy of some of those guys! "It's not your fault that they can't make a game right and you took advantage of it."....."They're banning people for a silly little care package glitch? Stupid."
Some people's children...

Should have been aborted.
