using crossbow on hardcore is quite daft, the initial impact always kills, so you're always exploding corpses.

if exploding corpses in a video game is wrong, i don't want to be right

yeah but the coolest thing is seeing someone be stuck, having the moment of "fuck" and then getting blown up.

I don't know why they give you that "stuck" icon if there's nothing that can be done about it. it seems to be adding insult to injury. Also i wish it weren't in the sticks and stones game. That game would be more fun with just ballistic knife and tomahawk.

sticks and stones is kind of silly since imo it's as easy to hit with the tomahawk as it is to hit with the other too. playing it i "humiliated" a lot more often than i stuck.

the other two gah

I love the tomahawk and ballistic knife combo and use them often in the regular game. I find tomahawk a better distance weapon, as you can try for ricochet and you can predict the drop more naturally over a distance. or so it seems to me.

i play hardcore so only really use those when i'm dicking about. ball. knife is especially tricky on hardcore cause of no crosshair.

i've been sniping like a mf now. its all in the variable scope.

Do you use that little video camera? I see snipers having installed it, but i don't know what it's good for, or why it's any better than just putting a claymore there. there are too many gimmicks for campers in this game.

fucking hate taking time out of a game to submit complaints of douchetards with swastikas as their playercard but someones gotta do it..

Also the summit level is pretty ridiculous on domination if one team controls 2 of the 3 points. Can easily turn into a one sided slaughter.

I seriously can't stand grid, can't get to grips with it at all. Am loving cracked and nuketown though, amazed that I've got my best killstreak so far on the latter.

are you one of those d-birds who camps on his belly in the second-floor bedroom of the house?
― antexit, Thursday, 25 November 2010 00:37 (thirteen years ago) link
I usually toss a grenade or semtex in there every time I spawn - free money.

I feel like I get more or less the same sort of concentrated pleasure from the new pac-man game as from this game.
― antexit, Thursday, 25 November 2010 14:30 (thirteen years ago) link
good grief no, as Jeff points out, that's the first place to get grenade spam. On that map I usually sweep behind whichever house I'm spawning at and catch people coming through, occasionally making a foray to the front of the house to pop off a few shots and head back. I'm definitely not one to go piling in running and gunning on that map - I value my lives too much, I'd much rather go, say 10/5 than 11/20.
still can't put a plan together on radiation or grid tho, even though that's come up more than the others today, with maybe the exception of crisis.

oh stoner LMG, I think I love you.
― problem chimp (Porkpie), Friday, 26 November 2010 14:22 (thirteen years ago) link
Incredible. Is it the only usable lmg in the history of these games? It seems like it pops to ADS as fast as any other weapon besides a pistol or smg.
― antexit, Friday, 26 November 2010 15:19 (thirteen years ago) link
It's just bloody awesome. Extended mags a necessity tho, fire rate is v high.
― problem chimp (Porkpie), Friday, 26 November 2010 16:09 (thirteen years ago) link
Alright - here's a video of me going 29-1 on Radiation TDM - not bad for a 40 year old. Also chopper gunner is crazy over-powered.

You know, I've never even considered it. Can imagine it being handy on Hanoi or cracked (the shattered building one that I haven't played in a while)

note treyarch: putting all multiple prestige dudes on one team does not an even matchup make

Im at level 49.. thinking about prestiging but not exactly sure what I will get out of it. Maybe I will get to be put on the multiplayer teams with all the steeged dudes I generally play against with my team of the greenest of newbs.

well fwiw i hear if you do it 14 more times after that you can paint your guns gold
― antexit, Wednesday, 1 December 2010 18:12 (thirteen years ago) link
lol sadly I am an adult and dont have that much time to play. I love checking out player cards of multi steeged dudes and see that theyve played for 4 days +. Im over 30hrs and Im pretty ashamed of it.

the amount of playtime it would take to get up to 15x prestige you could probably work at mcdonald's and save enough to buy gold-plated guns irl... http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=203910019 <--- only $1700.
― antexit, Wednesday, 1 December 2010 18:32 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah, 14 prestiges, took me 30 odd hours to steeg once, if we put that down to 30 from the first one on - since i was shit for the first hours of play and thus wasn't get that many points - you're still looking at well over 2 weeks play :|

fuckin college kids livin the dream. I could have prestiged 500 times in mario kart back in the day.
― strongly recommend. unless you're a bitch (mayor jingleberries), Wednesday, 1 December 2010 19:21 (thirteen years ago) link
back in the day if CS had had levelling and prestiges i could have prestiged hundreds of times. i played it for an average of 2 hours a day for 5 years.

If Mortal Kombat 2 for the SNES did, I could have put a solid-gold iced-out grill on Baraka. He would have looked like one of the Ying-Yang Twinz.

I prestiged last night. k/d ratio is a less than robust .75. I blame experimenting with completely useless weapons such as the skorpion.
― strongly recommend. unless you're a bitch (mayor jingleberries), Thursday, 2 December 2010 18:02 (thirteen years ago) link
Kd 1.86. Ranked 5000 and something in the world at hardcore team deathmatch.

Does anyone else persistently have the problem where they get connection errors in team-based games? I have no problem ever with FFA or the wager games, but when I'm playing anything with a team it's a crapshoot.
― antexit, Monday, 6 December 2010 18:14 (thirteen years ago) link
So it turns out I was looking at my win ratio. My k/d is a somewhat more respectable .94.
I have connection errors now and again but not like every game..
