"Modern Warfare 2 - Freeola Official Thread"

As the most anticipated game of the year is released today, we need a place to discuss the happenings and to arrange games!

A few people asked for this to be created and so here we go.

Trusting everyone has their copy now, so let the fun begin tonight.

I, along with several others will be on Xbox but i know some are Ps3, but its the same game so no point in two threads!

3rd person mode seems pointless. The fact you can still aim using your heat scope thing makes it very easy to kill people from a distance. Although alot of the people you can tell play Gears of War, they're just too accurate using the crosshair in the middle of the screen.

I play Hardcore for that very reason, i do not like people knowing where i have killed them from!!

COD in general is good at not actually having decent camping spots - most decent areas have at least 2 routes into the area, so whilst focusing shooting through a gap in the wall, you tend to be prone someone entering the room behind you. Plus with the noob tube and grenades, as well as the wonderful knives, it means campers are generally killed off very quickly!

Still, if you find a good spot - KEEP IT!!! (I find keeping zoomed in means that when the killcam appears, it is harder for them to work out where you were!)

I accept that camping is a way to play the game, still annoying but thats because i run around shooting as much as i can, id rather get more points and deaths than less of each!

Played a free for all game last night, won with 27 kills and 3 deaths! It is safe to say that i kicked some serious @ss lol

I really don't mind camping, as there's an element of risk in that people know where you are from watching killcams. Noobtubes, Riot Shields and Akimbo weapons kill the game for me. I've honestly got bored of it now. The maps have gotten old very fast.

I've grown to accept campers. For one reason, its an effective tactic and i can counter it by knowing where the spots are, avoiding them or simply attacking them. Most of the time it ends with me knifing them anyway or me shooting them in the back as revenge.

Does anyone attempt revenge attacks? I certainly always go for payback if the game has gone to hell. I know there was a hacker in one game (He was tracking me with his gun through a wall and up a flight of stairs without even losing sight of me. And he was doing this when i was on the floor below!) and i managed to take him down once with legit means. A burst of LMG fire from a long distance silenced him. Yeah the KD was something like 20+ to 1, but i felt proud to shoot him dead. That hacker deserved it.

Imagine that as a tactic in real war hehe. "Quick, fire! Run away!!!"

i've seen this one a lot and i still laugh. Almost legendary in how it happened.

some ov the games are the same

Awesome. There is another one on Youtube on rooftops, where the javelin "swims" around for a bit then hits the barrel of oil next to him :D

Awful players though, why would you stand around waiting for it to happen? Fire, move, fire, move. :D
