Well, there is the care package glitch. You hold the care package grenade and your movement speed becomes even faster.

Interesting. Explains a comment I heard going into a game yesterday.

Knife 'tards suck. Not a glitch, but man, having decent range no aim instakills suck.

Clunky COD1 melee is where it's at.

 

[Tomato]

Ughh.. Seriously a silencer on a .50 cal?? Whomever though MW2, was a "realistic" game needs to get their head reexamined.

 

[Captain Pike]

umm

 

[Sephiroth]

it's the silenced shotguns that bother me :S

Same here

 

[Sephiroth]

and they need to fix that invincibility while knifing, got a guy 20 feet from me i'm dumping an entire TAR-21 mag into him while he slides up to me with that knife

 

[Yoda]

The simplest fix I can think of for knife 'tards is just make a bullet hit interrupt their animation. The instakill while you are shooting them is the most infuriating part.

Agreed.

umm

From the website they look they are only for the TAC 50s. But my beef with them is that you need to use them to unlock the heartbeat sensor. But it reduces the freaking damage, and you can't one shot kill people.

You can, usually with the headshots, though I remember getting one shot kills on torsos too, and that was on normalcore.

I just wanted to address the stupid arguments that javelin 'tards are not cheating. First of all, if you go to the File Complaint screen it very clearly lists exploiting known or unknown glitches as being a cheat. Coming down hard on cheaters is part of what we're paying for when we shell out money on XBL Gold... You can't even argue that it was by design because they're preparing a patch to remove it, and of course it took millions of people playing for weeks before it was even discovered.

Anyone can do the Afghan rock glitch thing too. That doesn't mean it's fair and not cheating... Your argument is appalling in its stupidity.

Climbing under the map on Roundhouse in WAW was a glitch but it is very clearly cheating to do so.

Lol, you're arguing about the realism of 50Cal and shotgun silencers, but you're fine with the totally unrealistic heartbeat sensor?

I can't believe they're arguing about realism in a video game at all. if I wanted reality I wouldn't escape into games.

 

[Yoda]

Well, some degree of realism in a game can be important. I mean, I don't want a level 70 D&D Magic Missile weapon unlock in MW2 for instance... though maybe that's a bad example and the SF&F crowd would love the idea....

Anyway, I think most of the MW2 questions boil down to balance more than realism.

yes...unrealistic >.>

That would be awesome.

Balance? Did you play WAW? Ever hear of the MP40?

I know, I want balance too. Problem is, with a game as complicated as MW2, finding the balancing effect for certain weapon/perk combos can take time. Still haven't figured out the anti-knife/commando thing.

Indeed. Finger of Death From Hell! Screw their silenced Barret!

Not me in general, but it is funny when people call CoD games are suppose to be realistic.
