So is match making totally fucked for anyone else

Every game is like 4 on 3

2/3/2011 11:20:23 PM

havent played today but experienced some of that last night

2/3/2011 11:36:15 PM

I think I hate Time Warner Cable more than Infinity Ward. I'm glad we're paying for an 8mb download speed when we're getting about 1. So laggy that invites won't even show up.

2/3/2011 11:44:15 PM

Treyarch

but yeah...my Road Runner Turbo seldom lives up to the hype

2/3/2011 11:48:02 PM

I also find it funny that according to the "official" TWC speed test, we're getting 8-9mbs, but on speedtest.net we're getting ~2.

A friend of mine was complaining about this at work today.

2/4/2011 1:22:26 AM

i enjoyed it on Wednesday night cause we were rolling like 4 deep trying to do some "get the lead early and camp the other 9 minutes in TDM and wait for the other team to send pissed off XBL messages so we could lol" and we didnt have to worry about randoms raining on our troll parades

2/4/2011 1:34:26 AM

BLOODY SCREEN!

SO REAL!

2/4/2011 6:42:05 AM

Where was everyone last night???

On Ascent last night AK-74u w/ hardline, sleight of hand, and marathon for the win.
In the middle control room the enemies funnel in about as quickly as you can shoot them.

2/4/2011 8:46:35 AM

not particularly great, but played with one of my buddies, and killed him 6 times, to getting killed once. Too bad you can only go up to 30 seconds.

2/4/2011 9:43:21 AM

nice reload final kill

2/4/2011 10:22:34 AM

I think I'm going to use shitty weekend weather + double xp to get back to level 50, but I'm not going to prestige again. I was on a roll until I prestiged last time, now I'm playing like dog shit.

hey now, the crown is yours if you want it

2/4/2011 12:29:12 PM

hey now:

It's double xp time. Even I mount for double xp.

2/4/2011 2:12:27 PM

I might play for the double xp, but I'm still pissed that the theater is still broken for me even after the latest patch

2/4/2011 2:19:10 PM

I wish there were a way to disable the map pack, I'm pretty sure that's what's killing the match making. Main screen says there are 700k online, playlist says there are 200k online. I'd rather have a full match on an old map than a 3-on-3 on a new map.

2/4/2011 2:19:41 PM

^ yeh I have had very little issue with matchmaking and I didn't buy the map pack.

Can't you delete it from your downloads? Or am I mistaken?

2/4/2011 3:06:51 PM

I could probably get a few sweet videos with tomahawk kills...I love that damn thing. I have one where I eliminated just about a whole team in less than 30 seconds using it, but the theater is busted

2/4/2011 3:09:01 PM

Isn't that Duty Calls thing on the previous page just a promo for Bulletstorm (the demo is badass btw)?

2/4/2011 4:08:14 PM

My first attempt at a video. Pretty funny, but not nearly as epic as hey now's on Havana.

2/4/2011 4:38:53 PM

Yeah it is exiled. What Prestige are y'all on? I am about to hit some more Lifetime challenges, with the Double XP that is going to push me over the barrier. Should hit Prestige 3 by tomorrow.

2/4/2011 4:41:12 PM

I prestiged once long ago and don't plan on doing it ever again

2/4/2011 4:46:47 PM

I stayed at 50 for a while, decided I really had nothing to play for at 50, so I prestiged.

2/4/2011 4:57:30 PM

Crossbow is bitchin

2/4/2011 5:01:21 PM

I use the crossbow on my stealth AK47u class - silencer, ghost, sleight of hand, hacker, claymore, flash, tomahawk. Pretty good for getting distance kills I can't for sure nail with the AK47u

2/4/2011 5:05:12 PM

Do you call that class "douchebag"

2/4/2011 5:07:33 PM

No but I use it to hunt down campers...so maybe I should?

2/4/2011 5:09:53 PM

Hacker pro would seal the deal

2/4/2011 5:11:13 PM

I'm trying to get that actually, but I'm having a hell of a time using the motion detector. I hate being confined to the affected area.

Jammer might be better for attracting enemies though, since I know whenever I see my map get fucked up with a jammer I always hunt it down

2/4/2011 5:13:00 PM

I like to use the sensor to watch a nearby area. Like on firing range if we have B I'll set it by the sandbags at the top of the ramp, and I can control that area from the garage or the c flag. It's like having eyes in the back of your head.

[Edited on February 4, 2011 at 5:25 PM. Reason : Too easy to kill dudes who just sit on their equipment]

"'m having a hell of a time using the motion detector"

I pretty much never used motion sensor or jammer until I was trying to get Hacker Pro...I found the easiest way to do it, while kind of a bitch move, was to put the sensor/jammer in a small building like the garage on Firing Range, camp in the garage, and shoot people when they came in since it was in the radius...you can do the same thing on Nuketown in either house...like i said, kind of a bitch move, but it seemed like the quickest and easiest way to get it

it wasn't worth it though to me, cause I pretty much always use Marathon Pro in my Perk 3 slot

Capturing flags like a boss

"fuck black ops. i'm going to wait for a few weeks until these silent ghost campers get bored of the game again and stop playing again."

Seriously, I just played a game on Array where probably half of their team was just sitting in bushes. This is starting to get really fucking annoying.

2/5/2011 3:46:49 AM

Ended up getting hacker pro in about 4 games using tree's method...helped by the fact I had back to back games of nuketown, array and firing range. Never mind the fact that I've gotten myself killed three already because I try to sneak around claymores so I can hack them...

I'm also intrigued by tactical mask pro but don't know if it would be worth it. Anyone have it? It makes you immune to flash and concussion nades plus gives you a directional indicator when you flash a room. Id put it on an assault/frontlines/small map type of class

motion sensor can be awesome in nuketown, the key is to put it on a different level so people with hacker won't know where you are. the motion sensor will tell you who is around regardless of whether they are above or below the level of the sensor so always put it on a different level than you.

in nuketown put it in the corner of the kitchen and then camp upstairs. it will tell you who is coming into the building. after you kill one or two people they will start expecting you to be there and will try to throw grenades... this is when you use the motion sensor to your advantage. when you see someone coming at you, instead of sitting and waiting you rush towards them and meet them on the stairs. they aren't expecting you there, they where probably getting a grenade ready to head to the top of the stairs and throw it in the room with you but you surprised them and killed them. i used to consistently get 7+ killstreaks running this setup on nuketown when paired with a ghost/silcenced spas class and only changed because i got bored.

the motion sensor is hugely effective if you use it right.

this map pack is just really shitty compared to mw2's first map pack

mw2: crash, overgrown, bailout, storm, and salvage

all those maps are 10x better.

2/5/2011 12:38:41 PM

I am installing the legendary COD4 right now.

2/5/2011 2:12:23 PM

I'm gonna try and find my Sniper rifle triple kill before I forget

[Edited on February 5, 2011 at 3:14 PM. Reason : Speaking of triple kills]

2/5/2011 3:14:24 PM

First part was supposed to be real-time, not sped up, but I'm not gonna redo the clip...also I remembered it being a little more awesome but its still pretty decent, and I got lucky with their positioning

2/5/2011 3:44:44 PM

haven't played in almost a month- I like the new scoring for kills when the guy is in last stand.

Though I've only gotten into games with crap signal. Just rage quit after only a handful of matches

2/5/2011 5:59:17 PM

Hey TWW

Let's kill some mf'in zombies sometime

Ernie

2/5/2011 7:56:17 PM

fun with my new favorite gun

2/5/2011 11:20:33 PM

unlocked the commando today...i love it. I do find that in head to head exchanges I tend to lose even with the advantage but that may just have been my aiming or fatigue from playing most of the day.

I put a flamethrower on it as a curiosity and was actually very impressed. fun for clearing rooms and hallways, and a great surprise when in a standoff around a barrier or corner. Might have to get up a few toasty triple kill repays sometime

2/6/2011 12:33:23 AM

finally got finished with my first prestige, so i'm back to square one now. shockingly enough, i'm actually sporting a positive K/D ratio through level 5 using the regular assault rifle. maybe my problem was just holding down fire on auto guns and not using the burst method

2/6/2011 12:37:09 AM

i'm running commando with grenade launcher and rpg7 right now. i've got these people sooo pissed off right now. the noob tube is definitely under utilized in black ops. i guess i've got another hour or so until i'm starting my 7th (or 8th?) prestige.

2/6/2011 1:25:35 AM

From last to first to last. 8 setbacks. Damn you!

2/6/2011 12:04:30 PM

Not going to hit next prestige by the end of the 2xp weekend, didn't really play that much. I'm going to start to put full matches with commentary up on youtube. I wonder if I'll be able to get many views. Seems like the only thing people like WoR really do is have good quality and a voice that doesn't sound like your throat was torn open by a can opener.

2/6/2011 10:19:20 PM

Mount?

2/6/2011 11:30:19 PM

Posting basically right after myself, but here is a new one. I was just scolded multiple times from multiple people for saying GG after each game. Apparently it is considered rude.
