Modern Warfare2 General Thread

*sigh*, longest kill streak is still 24. One day Nuke, I will explode you. This I swear.
Yeah I haven't been able to replicate my nuke either :(

I think for me it needs to be a combination of gun (Famas or SCAR silenced), map (airport) and team (ie noobies for me to shoot) :rommie:

try Harrier and Chopper Gunner to get the nuke

I know that's the kill streak but I haven't been able to get six kills. LOL
 
Finally got it somewhere around prestige 1, level 44... been trying Harrier -> Chopper gunner forever. Tonight I was playing Domination (Ground War) with the full 18 players on Rundown. I think I actually started the round off with 5 straight deaths. When I got to my Harrier it killed exactly one person with the bombs, and then got immediately shot down. So I wasn't exactly feeling like this life was going to be the one. I ran out of M16 ammo and had to a death defying sprint across open space with my crappy shotgun (AA-12 or something?) at a guy with some kind of assault rifle from well beyond shotgun range, hell, well beyond even akimbo 1887 range :guffaw:. Anyway, got kill 11 and haphazardly hid right next to the middle bridge behind that one concrete barrier and busted out the chopper gunner, thinking that whoever put a stinger on my Harrier would do the same to my chopper in short order. Inexplicably nobody fired stingers, and few if any of them had cold-blooded. They were mostly clustered and spawning in the area west of that really thin bridge, and I gunned them down all the way to a 28 kill streak. I figured odds weren't great of getting much more than that with my almost out of ammo shotgun, and we were at 180/200 on our domination score so I nuked it right then and there. I also didn't know if the nuke added to the streak, which apparently it doesn't. Finished the round with 46 kills and 10 deaths.

I feel your pain. My longest streak was 8 and I haven't come close to that in awhile now. 5 is usually my limit and even that's rare.

Last night I got 5 for a predator drone strike and there wasn't one single red box on the whole freakin' map when I launched it even though my radar was full of enemies.

Talk about getting ripped off.

Paint me impressed. I played Mosh Pit, Demolition and went 28-2. I thought that was pretty bad-ass. :techman:
 
I've been messing around some, trying to unlock random weapon attachments... hosing my kill/death ratio and trying not to care... let me just say this. The P90 completely blows. It's just really really horrible. I was horrified how ineffective I was with it. I thought it would be fun to mess unlock and mess around with bling akimbo/silenced p90, cold blooded, and ninja... but no.... even steady aim didn't really help. My god was it awful. No wonder people use mostly stuff like UMP and Vector in that class of guns. Ugh. Wow P90. I hate you. Also, you're ugly, and it was lame when SG-1 switched to you as their weapon of choice.

I really like the p90. Great for FFA, and a rushing class if you ask me.

I agree--I'm currently leveling up the P90 and having no trouble with it (once I added a red dot).

The FAMAS OTOH, I will never master. I keep hearing how it's a great weapon to use (even for newbies...WTF?), but I get destroyed every time I try it.

LOOOVVEEE the FAMAS. I Got my nuke with that gun and the silencer. It is a long distance gun and you have to develop more of a "camping/defensive" style of play with it.

That would be the problem. I don't camp (usually) and I don't play defensively (although I'm trying to change that). Those two things would probably be why I suck at the game.
 
The FAMAS probably also isn't a great "spray and pray" type of weapon, due to the three-round burst. Not the type of weapon to use if you just run around the map and never lift your gun to aim down the sights.
 
FAMAS and M16 own with stopping power. The main advantage is the three round bursts are pretty quick, so if you aim accurately, your first shot will put 3 bullets into a guy killing them almost instantly. Even in close range, with Steady Aim you stand a good chance of getting a one burst kill so long as your aim is decent.

P90 though... man, I would run at a guy with him directly in the middle of my screen, not far away at all, and I could empty a whole magazine without killing him. Sometimes he'd die normally, sometimes a random headshot would kill him... but in general, empty the mag, and I get shot while reloading. This isn't red dot ADS sort of stuff... I mean it's an SMG after all... I would hope it could do decently in a spray situation. Ugh.

Yeah I would recommend watching youtube videos of players to get better a feel. I find myself rushing people when I know they are around the corner.

If you want to be aggressive try to run a lightweight, marathon, hip fire class. Use a p90 (which I used). I usually get like a .95 KDR with it in FFA. And you can be a pain in domination, just stick to the edges of the map and Flank, flank and flank.
 
The large magazine on the P90 is nice, as is the rapid fire rate. But as far as sub machine guns go the UMP is the best. It just hits harder. Especially if you're running a rusher class with lightweight/marathon instead of stopping power. The P90 without stopping power is pretty lame, while the UMP is still pretty lethal.
 
I find the mp5k, the worse though how can a P2k have better accuracy than it??

On a bright side my KDR is improving. I am now at .92 :D
 
Merry Christmas indeed, got myself a 12-month XBL Gold subscription plus GTA: Episodes From Liberty City, which came with a free 48-hour XBL Gold trial. Time to get my ass kicked in MW2. :D
 
If you haven't already, you should activate the trial before the subscription - it only works for new accounts.
