I think that this is absolutely great! I really hate the party chats all together. This makes it fair for everyone. Great!

Sorry if I do not wish to hear the many annoying people online. No party chat means I will just remove my mic or mute everyone. If you really think communication in online games with random people was ever good your memory is in bad shape.

Seriously. This better not be for vanilla team deathmatch. I don't want to hear random people cursing, and screaming. I want to be in a group chat with my friends who may not even be PLAYING MW2. I don't want to have to talk OVER people actually trying to communicate in MW2, and I don't want to HEAR other people having a casual conversation when I'm playing for realz.

Yeah. I always use party chat since I tend to bullshit a lot while playing with my friends. On top of that we don't speak english, so I guess that'd annoy the hell out of a lot of people in a general channel.

I cant believe the amount of complaining about the chopper gun.

first of all cant you shoot the chopper down? I would imagine its probably easier to do than in MW1. The AI chopper in MW1 moved around a lot. If this chopper moves as much it will probably be tough for the guy aiming to make out targets. The guy in the vid did pretty well but its hard to tell if that will be typical.

Radar was up and that certainly made it way easier to target everyone. That was just lucky timing as it didnt seem the guy that got the chopper gunner activated radar also. If you notice before the fireworks began he died like 3 times just trying to get to the air drop and it was 10 seconds after that when he got his first kill with it.

The chopper in MW1 so many times would kill me through some impossibly small opening. I cant tell in the vid if this guy is getting kills by shooting at people inside buildings but if theres somewhere to take cover then it shouldnt be a problem.

if your team is stupid and doesnt recognize a chopper is up and take cover then yeah shit like this will happen no different than it could have in MW1. so whats the problem?

Please tell me he is using a modded controller to shoot the barret that fast.

You can shoot it that fast without one in cod4, so I'm guessing he's just using a normal controller.

It's been a long long time since I last played that I guess since I don't recall that. Either that or I never tried it nor saw it done. I'm going to have to fire it up tonight.

Don't know if this was posted yet,

All perks and weapons vid, watch it before it gets taken down.

After looking at the stats, it seems pointless to upgrade your sniper from a Barrett to anything else.
Click to expand...

Yeah, it's certainly an odd way of leveling in this game. Doesn't make much sense at all to be honest. Looks like there's a sawed off shotgun in there too, of all things. I'll have to see a complete list of weapons, including whatever's unlocked in prestige modes (iirc you unlock some weapons in there).

I don't think you can put a silencer on the barrett, so that might be a reason to use another rifle.

Totally forgot about those addons, too bad he didn't show those in that vid.

I also forgot about the deathstreaks, and martyrdom is one of them.

It's hard to see stuff like helicopters gunning down a bunch of people after getting 4 kills then seeing a nuke that ends the match instantly and still feel confident that this game will remain balanced at all. I don't find it very enjoyable to have to avoid shit flying from the sky for the whole match.

Archie said:
Chopper kills don't count towards the nuke streak, right?
Click to expand...

They don't, but I'd image while someone is in the chopper that it'd be easier to pick people off for the guys on the ground to work towards that.

Here's another one, if you guys didn't like the helicopter, your probably not going to like the C130 also, its near the end of this vid.

That just seems like there is no way to get out of being destroyed by that sort of thing. I can see that 25 kill streak nuke come easy with something like the AC130...

Game is starting to look like a cluster fuck lol. Thank heavens for hardcore game types.

Yeah, and they were annoying. Atleast that was just the AI though, an actual person is much worse.

One disadvantage to a player controlled helicopter I can see is that it might count as a kill and end your kill streak if someone shoots it down.

Fuck I need to stop reading this thread. Too many things being talked about outside of spoiler tags for my liking!

I just pre-ordered it. £45. It's quite depressing I'm paying more than £40 for a game for the first time in... God knows how many years, but there ya go. Activison know they can rape me over Call of Duty :)
