Why MW2 fails

Hi guys,

Lets talk why this game fails,so people can be more concerned about the big failure of this game.

COD4 was also way better.

Anyway let me tell why it fails.

1-Care package is all about luck.When you get only uav or ammo supply it sucks,while the opposite team is getting a chopper gunner or ac130.

2-Heartbeak sensor sucks.The enemy learns quickly where you are,this very sucks,because they learn your place and they have the advantage.

3-Granade launchers are all over the place.Every player use it and when you spawn you just die.They look to the space,lauch the granade(launcher) and you die.

4-When your team sucks,your kill will be like 5 and death will be like 20 because even you are a pro player,there will be a chopper,pavelow,harrier,ac130 firing to you.

5-Harrier strike and and chopper gunner is way strong,when harrier sees you even for a half a second,you die.

6-If there are thermal scopes,then why there is any ghill suit as many players will use thermal scopes,wouldn't there be something more logical.

7-The perk commando is way stupid.An enemy can knife you from 2 meters distance.Also when you unlock this perk's pro thing,you dont get any damage when you fall from any height,this is very very stupid and unrealistic.

I wouldnt want a FPS to be completely realistic as you would die with only 1 hit,but this game is very very absurd.

8-You can put akimbo to machine pistols and sub machine guns if I remember it right,and at close range it will only take like 0.3 seconds to kill enemy.

9-Model 1887 with akimbo has a very huge range which is very silly and it is loaded by turning the gun which is again very absurd.


10-One man in army perks allows you to change clases,if you switch to any class with one man in army,you can change your class infinitly many times.This is not realistic and very absurd.

11-When people are rushing with marathon lightweigh and commando it is very hard to detect them as you will be knifed from back,come on call of duty,should be watch our back everytime?Also the claymores dont effect these rushers because claymore will burst too late.


12-Putting a fmj actually in a gun doesn't usually matter,but if it does,m16 will kill an enemy everytime with stopping power and fmj.

13-The maps are very big,actually I dont hate campers but when the map is big,there are many campers which spoils the game.


14-When you throw a nuke,everybody dies,lets say a nuke is thrown at team death mach.How can a team win?


Lets say that the score limit is 1000 in tdm,and spetnaz reached 990 and tf141 reached 100,if tf141 throws a nuke,all tf141 and spetnaz will die,but since spetnaz already had a higher score it should win.

15-Of course,everybody hates dedicated servers,no rules and no ban if the players don't do their objectives,hack or do elevator.


When you play this game,you waste 10 minutes for joining a game.


M16 is a fully automatic weapon in real.It is a good idea that it is 3 round burst in cod4 and mw2.But why in mw2 there is another weapon that is 3 round burst which is famas?Maybe at mw3 ak47 will be bolt action or barrett will be fully automatic.

16-You can not escape from semtex granade.No way,if it is thrown near you as it explodes in a second.

17-You can not chose or change your team,when you are assigned to a team that sucks you should leave the game.

18-When you join to a lobby,it takes a minute to start,that is long for me.

That is my ideas,any people who share theirs will be appriciated.

 

This thread is pure win

 

Sugoi Monogatari Aniki.

 

M-16 is not full auto in real life. You might be thinking of the m-4.

 

There are a couple of valid points in here, but a lot of the things you listed aren't that bad.

If you want to not get shot by harriers, or not be seen on thermal, put on Cold-Blooded.

If you don't want people to see you on heartbeat sensors, put on ninja.

If you want to lunge 2 meters and kill someone or jump off a building and not die, use commando.

 

1) Is this a troll? If not... it sounds like you just need to get better. Most of these complaints sound like they are coming from a new player.
2) MW2 was released ages ago....
3) MW2 isn't supposed to be realistic.

 

All this is FAIL to me. Ninja? Cold Blooded? Heartbeat Sensor? Fail and Fail and more Fail.

 

I am not a new player,and I would not complain about a game.If I suck in a game,I will accept.I always own in Cod4,I go like 30 kills and 10 deaths.


But in mw2 it is like 15/12.I dont like putting ninja.OR cold blooded.Then the weapon gets weak.

The whole purpose of this game is to camp in a building,take one man in army and put claymores,if a claymore is gone,switch to the same class and put again one man in army so your score will be rock.

Just a shame fail man.

 

I agree man, CoD4 was so much better than MW2, it is just way to noob friendly it no longer takes any skill.

 

Is mw2 noob friendly or cod4?

Cod4 is where skill and speed is tested,but mw2 is a whole different failing game.

 

Actually the original M16 along with A1/A3 are all fully-automatic while the M4 Carbine is actually 3-round burst, the M4 A1 on the other hand is fully-automatic.

 

The worst thing in mw2 by far is the perks. I don't mind anything else that much.

1st problem:

marathon
lightweight
commando

It is the most unrealistic thing in the game and totally ruins it, especially when you add in a tactical knife.

The next problem is having marathon and lightweight on 2 different classes. marathon pro should be lightweight.

Another problem is having sitrep(bomb squad) and ninja pro on the same perk (perk 3). This way if you want to be stealthy you can't. eg:

perk 1: ?
perk 2: cold blooded
perk 3: ninja pro OR sitrep

bomb squad should have stayed on perk 1 just like cod4. Using ninja pro is a must, and if you want to stay silent, you need sitrep. Perk 1 is useless in this sense.

I could go all through the perk problems in this game, and re arrange all the perks so they make sense, but I'm too lazy.

 

You know if you hate those things, then surely the opponent hates them too so why not do those things you hate against them and be on the winning side?

I'd have to agree with joining games though :/ It simply takes forever and sometimes i can't even connect to the host making all the wait a waste of time

 

MW2 players are not exactly the smartest bunch of people.

 

I love threads that exist only to bich about MW2 multiplayer. If you hate it so much, stop playing it.

Hilarious.

Personally, I don't even play multiplayer, so I'm just going to say all your points are what I love about the game. I love anything about multiplayer games that make people whine about them.

 

Hey. I are smert.

 

First of all, MW2 is not supposed to be realistic in the slightest. It is an arcade shooter.

Also, the M16 has selective fire. It can fire fully automatic or 3-round burst, however it is (becoming) common practice to fire in 3-round burst, as it conserves ammo and helps with recoil control.

 

Only A1/A3 have full auto as stated before. Today we use the A4 and it has only semi/burst

 

Why the heck does it matter?

In real life, a blast shield isn't invincible. In real life getting hit with a thrown knife doesn't equal getting shot 3-5 times. In real life, 16 strangers don't meet in full war kits and shoot each other. In real life, 16 strangers meet, one shoots a gun, and the other fifteen pee themselves.

 

Yes, m16 is not fully automatic, since I've used it for quite a long time in the army, there's only 3 modes, lock, manual (1 shot per trigger), auto (3 shots burst per trigger).

 

I love watching these videos.

My biggest problem is the Multi with no dedicated servers. Other than that I enjoy the game. Arcade shooter for sure.

No dedicated servers = total Fail and ruins an otherwise great game.

 

meh, I enjoy it... it's not perfect, but it's a fun shooter with great graphics and atmosphere... I think the non stop bashing of MW2 has just turned me off to taking any complaints seriously about it. I have enjoyed the sinlge player campaign, really enjoy playing and replaying the special ops, and online is fun. That to me sounds like a fun game, and by no means would I, or by judging by sales charts MANY others consider it a fail.

I also really enjoy Bad Company 2, Just Cause 2, Bioshock, FlightSim, most racing games, etc.... so maybe I'm just not that much of a diehard fan of any single game, but I can't recommend enough anybody that hasn't played MW2 yet take advantage of the FREE weekend.... it's a fun game, without a doubt. I'm just tired of the fail thread and crying about non dedicated servers back when it came out... seriously, I've yet to have any more issues with this game multiplayer than any other. None are perfect.

 

I like watching him killing campers

I see a few people wanting it to be more realistic to real life here If you want it to be so real life, why not ask them to make it so that after you die you go back straight to level 1 or instantly delete your account since you just "died"? There's no such thing as respawn in real life >:[

 

I have fun when I play.


/thread

 

This is why us cool people play Crysis.

 

Sorry... I hate mw2 now. I bought it and it just fails in comparison to BFBC2.
The videos right there just go to show they do not listen to players.

No thanks.. back to BFBC2.

Well man if you dont like it dont play it. simply put. you say you want realism but call of duty has never been geared at realism.... EVER. there are tons of online shooters out there. try counter strike, or BFBC2, or Viva Piniata.

You honestly just seem the type of person whose never happy about anything to me. if you were GIVEN a brand new ferarri with taxes and tag paid for as well you'd complain that it isnt the right color.

people generally dont want to see other people complain incessantly. yes MW2 isnt perfect (im not a fan of it myself), i havent found a single game that is. if you could make a better game then please do and i'll post a thread online about what is wrong with your game and the circle continues.

Heres the resolution to your problems if u insist on playing a game you seem to hate so much.

Problem #...
1) if you dont like care packages use something else.
2) use cold blood they wont see you and advantage goes to you.
3) yes noob tubes suck but name a SINGLE military online shooter where people dont use explosives like madmen? Unreal is your best bet
4) that sounds like your inability to play. i can pick any gun and go even to positive kills almost every match without staying in one place more than 3 seconds.
5) I run cold blooded. you could also shoot them down. newtons law does work here.
6) again cold blooded works here. you expect a liquid cooling system inlaid into a persons suit, lets just say thats how cold blood works .... now its logical.
7) yeah and commando players show up quite well on uav and heart beat sensors so theyre easy targets.
8) only in hardcore they go down that fast and in that case advantage goes to you for more accurate weapon especially at range.
9) they patched the range issue and you apparently never fired a shotgun they actually shoot further than 5 feet even with bird shot.
10) its about as absurd as dying and coming back to life to kill a person whose killed you 15 times already....
11) see answer #7
12) most rounds naturally already have FMJ. its just a way to try to add a penetration aspect to the game.
13) dont like big maps play unreal tournament. and theyre TINY compared to operation flashpoint or battlefield 2.
14) .... really? youre reaching on this ..... maybe instead of pacification commande decided you were expendable and completely nuked the enemy. war won....
15) it also means that that person who keeps you under 5 kills a match doesnt get booted for being better than you and is safe from your e-rage. privately hosted matches take much much longer to gather people for BTW
16) LOL i dont know many people who can outrun an explosion. michael Johnson and his golden shoes perhaps. put a 30 pound gun in his hand and a 80lb sack on his back and ehhh
17) its a GAME just be glad its not a real war because they dont generally let you choose sides just because youre on the losing end.
18) see answer 15

 

Real COD4 fans now play BFBC2.

I honestly prefer COD4, it felt more balanced. -hides-

 

Keep Away from Random Gernade, and please Stay Safe, The CC way.

Eh as i mentioned im not a fan of MW2 myself but i take the bad with the good. i accept that some things are just going to happen in online FPS games. BFBC2 is ok i like it more than MW2. shame operation flashpoint dragon rising didnt have a bigger following and a few patches or that would be my game of choice

 

thanks mate for answering,but please try to be more calm and respectfull.


I appreciate your answer but I am not like a person that you think.

My mother has a BMW 520i,I am very happy and satisfied about that car,and my father has a ranger rover vague,even it causes problems i am happy about it.

1 week ago the gearbox on the range was replaced,because they dont last long,but I am happy about it.


I have a packard bell tj75 laptop,and I am satisfied about it,even there are better laptops equipped with SLI GTX 2xx or ati 5870 I am very satisfied about my lappy

The point is,the game is not balanced pretty well.I am not expecting it to be realistic because in real life as I said,you can die with a single hit,and it takes to much to supply ammo and sometimes reload.

But with cammando perk,you never die when you fall from big heights.

What the hell is that?It is unrealistic but also it is the way very stupid.


And in this topic,I am not complaining.If I would,I would say everyplayer is noob,granade launchers are noob,shotguns are noob,snipers are noob.

I am just sharing my ideas,to concern that what sucks in the game for me,so people can cleary see how a cod4 addictive person dislikes mw2.

 

I agree. This thread is WIN.

 

There's thermal scope? wow

 

I like MW2 not because I play it, there are some very funny game videos made with great commentary.

 

That guys video where he gets the nuke is hilarious.. i love the accent. guy cracks me up. If i had friends like him in the game I may not hate it so bad. I could care less about the win or lose.

What do you think flashpoint dragon rising needs to be a serious contender?

COD4 was a more solid game. MW2 biggest fault is they didnt beta test it as well as they should have before balancing everything. forced relase dates and demand by fans and players for a quick relase kills most games in this very fashion. Concidering all that MW2 did remarkably well under duress.

The problem with campers will never go away no matter what FPS u play unfortunately. snipers have been so worked up to being superior that everyone on earth wants to be one even though in reality theyre one of the smallest part of any army. i personally prefer to run a shotgun throwing knife class and specifically target camper/sniper type player on an attemp to humiliate them to playing a diffrent play style. FAL underbarrel shottgun FTW

Commando does have some real world pretense in parkour or free runners who leap and fall from three story buildings and land in a full sprint. Yeah granted they dont carry 10-30lb guns but it makes the stretch not so out there and it adds an extra deminsion to the game when you have to be keen on whats above you and behind you.

for me i want a fully realistic shooter but so far the only way ive found to truly re-create that kind ofgame is with real guns firing "simunition" which is a military training ammunition somewhat similar to paintball but with much higher velocities and more realistic flight paths. I enjoy it immensely though i'll warn you it does hurt but thats part of the experience.

Man it gets old always seeing people flame a game. constructive criticism is fine but going as far as your first post and seeing it over and over gets just annoying bro. in this forum at this very moment there are two nearly exact threads doing the same thing over this same game. we have the option of playing something else and if youre fully happy with COD4 then do so theres still millions that still play that game because of the very reasons you dont like MW2.

Im currently working on getting an ASUS G73 but that may take the better part of this year to get and while it frustrates me to no end to save up $1,600 for one just for something to come up such as automotive work and force me to delay my purchase and me off i accept that and keep looking ahead with a positive mindset instead of dwelling on the negative aspects of things.

Why not try a positive comparitive MW2 vs COD4 thread instead of complaining about why you think MW2 sucks. it might get better feedback

 

yeah its similar to an acog scope but shows heat white heat signatures on a black background. not reccommended on afgahn

 

This thread is a fail. Most complaints are by the OP were awfully terrible and can be fixed with a change of perk or Gameplay style or whatever. Some were simply PC related. The console MW2 is awesome. Only problems I have are that:

1. game encourages camping with the map design (but that's a result of more detailed and explorative maps. The maps in COD4 were pretty linear

2. grenade launchers are more powerful then they were in COD4

3. No beginner level weapons can match up with the higher level weapons (except the Intervention), unlike in COD4

As for the PC version, I think it's terrible because there is no chat room in the game lobby. Which is really annoying.

And Steam + MW2 = Epic Fail.

 

Ok, out of all ya said, this intrigued me... why? Just hate Steam in general or have a particular reason?

 

I stop playing MW2 because:

-Lag.
-Cheaters.
-Lack of gameplay variety.
-Lag.

 

So I said screw it, I'm not going to die anymore, going to get that nuke, rack up the kills. I'll win this game for these losers and kill these filthy campers. So get a quick 2 kills, started to get shot, threw a nade over the shrubs and what do you know I get the nuke. I call it in, game over, FU, I win.

Best commentary in any game I've heard so far.

 

like i said in the other thread, the game itself is good. the people that play it are what make it bad.

 

Nah, thats more like BC2, lots of stupid snipers etc.

MW2 is actually bad.

 

The game gets boring quick too. In the end it all comes down to twitch reflexes. There is no objective and no comprehension of the term "teamwork".

 

@ziddy - dude.. when I watched that video I was laughing so hard... he was seriously about to make me pee my pants. MW2 fail... tubers and cheezy kids, epic fail...

StevenX

 

I just played on the Steam free weekend it's loltastic. I never felt like I had no direction, my HUD was literally never empty with objectives:

HEADSHOT +50
YOU KILLED SOMEONE +150
KILLING STREAK +50
PREDATOR MISSILE NUKE
YOU HAS NEW TITLE
AWARD ACHIEVEMTN KILL KILL HEADSHOT FIRST BLOOD

the entire MP experience can be summarized by playing on one of those CS servers with 150 plugins and Quake deathmatch sounds and a server full of ADD potty-mouth pubkiddies with vast amounts of lag. What a dungpilecrapfail game.

 

I play this game a lot...so based on my observations, this game only needs :

- gunner chooper to be cut out of the game;
- grenade launchers should be also cut out
- akimbo Glock 18 need to be less accurate, as of now it is the headless-chicken runners (knifers) weapon of choice
- dedicated servers NEED to be included, but will not...since almost all of the original staff, that made this game was already sent to the concentration camps, by Activision
- CROUD CONTROL SYSTEM, ffs, people should be able to vote to kick someone for playing as a tubing camping idiot. How possibly developer can force us to play with RANDOM people and have no impact on the rules? I mean really...it's as if there were totally NO rules in a football game, you just get the ball...and kick it....or wait! hit it with your hands, damn even take it in your grasp and eat it and nobody can do a lying f**k about you behaving like that.....doesn't make sense - exact same applies to the MW2 player randomizing system with no croud control system at all.

 

those sandy ravage videos were hilarious! that dude has a similar playing style as me, we just use prefer different class builds.

no matter win or lose, i'm usually at the top or near the top of every single team, in every single match. there's just nothing u can do sometimes when other, random ppl don't know how to play the game correctly. all u can do is mind yur own business and handle yur job. seriously...these threads should all be renamed to "why i fail @ MW2". these threads are just a sorry cry for help from the crappier players that either A) are complaining about MW2 cuz they are used to another game (then go play that game instead of MW2...lightbulb?!?) or B) just don't know how to use their head to work around or solve their problems.

p.s. - the best perk in the game is mute pro
