what do you mean?

are you sugesting giving us people who actually know what the good guns/perks are no choice and forcing everyone to use the original 5 classes which are nothing short of shocking?

i love the fact we have a choice, cause it makes knowing your stuff that much more important, a different gun for a different map can be the difference between winning and losing the game

You are kidding right?

Sounds to me like you were getting owned big time so just moaned about anything you could think of.

Classes is one of the best things about the game, so much freedom, choice, different setups for different game modes. Brilliant.

How do you plant a claymore lol?I have it in my perks but don't know how to use it

[Saintsfanuk]

Left button on the dpad then r1 to plant

[Lishman]

anyone got the new maps?

[yarnbury11]

Everyone gets so into the choice of guns and grenades and that depending on the map; I just pick an assault rifle and try blast the lalalala out of everyone

(sniping is incredibly boring)

Saintsfanuk2 quick to assume? Never heard that one before



Infact, I won quite a few games. Moaned about anything I could think of? The air strikes stick out like a sore thumb. Where's the skill in pressing a button and then getting everyone (if they're new to the game) killed on the whole map?

-Mateio. I'm much better at Halo

But guys, don't start a stupid game flame-war. People have their preferences, and for me the airstrikes and weapon choices aren't one of them.

[yarnbury11]

Yeah, when I was round at my mates he just got a helicopter and it kept killing us, making it even harder for us to end his kill streak. I dont like how if you do better, you get things like radar to make it even easier

[rooney da best]

i pressume you were on shipment?

i can understand the hatred of airstrikes on that map, but in general airstrikes are easy to avoid as long as you not in the open

what is it you dont like about the choice?

is it because you dont know what is the best guns/perks and because higher level players have a larger selection of guns so they can own you?

@yarnbury: the whole point of the heli/airstrike/uav is to reward your brilliantness

[Sumo]

you don't have a radar at the start??!



and higher ranked players having better guns is the biggest joke I've ever heard.

[yarnbury11]

You do unless you're on hardcore mode

And rooney I suppose, but it's just annoying how the helicopter NEVER misses.

[Sumo]

surely as you get better, the game should get harder?

you unlock guns as you level up
whats wrong with that?

when you prestige you lose everything anyway

the best gun on the game is the mp5(imo) and you get that from the start

the second best assault rifle is the m16 which you also get from the start

the second best sniper is available from level 3

whats your problem

you seem to think that the best players should have lesser guns and the lalalala players should have all the advantages


oh and you get a radar telling you where everyone is on you team, and when the other team fires a weapon without a silencer they show up as a red dot, or if you get a 3 kill streak you get a uav radar showing you were everyone is on both teams

it seems to me sam you just got nailed by experienced players and your just cluchting at straws taking shots at the game now

Quick Q: if you lose, do you lose ranking points liek fifa, or do they just accumulate so someday everyone will be the top rank?

dont know whether you lose RANKING points, i dont look at those, i dont care

you dont lose points that you use to level up, they just increase

[Sumo]

For the record, I didn't actually play online, and the people I was playing weren't exactly 'experienced'. They'd got the game a couple of days before hand.

If becuase I don't like certain aspects you seem to think I'm lalalala then you should really go get some fresh air.

Did I ever say I got severely beaten by my opponents?

you didnt play online?

then i cant see how you can even comment on the classes ect

single player is like a training exercise compared to online

and i/we are not calling you lalalala because you dont like certain aspects, its because the things your complaining about are all related to being killed quite often, inplying you are rubbish at the game and get killed all the time

[Sumo]

fair enough. We all have things that we enjoy / dislike about games and we'll have to agree to disagree. Indeed if I decide to buy this game I may well go on to see that the systems I currently dislike work well but for the time being I'm not too keen.

One of the things I did like though was the ability to kill someone when you're on your deathbed

So if you play long enough, even if you suck you will become the highest level possible?

[Sumo]

If it's anything like HALO, it may keep a record of your highest level?

[rooney da best]

yes, but it would take you ages to reach the very top

getting to level 55 for a good player takes anything from a days worth of play, give or take a few hours each side, but there are ten prestige modes, meaning you have to reach level 550 altogether to be the very top level, so realistically it would be very difficult for you to get to the highest level unless you had a good level of ability and skill

its not the same as halo i dont think

you have to play the game online to fully understand how everything works, it will take to long to explain everything if you have no online experience to see for yourself

[yarnbury11]

or you played for a few years

[rooney da best]

i can see why it is not liked by all

i have several mates who play gears of war on their 360s still and they dont like cod

they are not even willing to get into cod, which is why they dont like it, its a game you have to learn and get better at, they all played it once/mabee twice and never played it again because they got killed loads

they dont want to come out of their comfort zones of gears of war and try something new
i think their stupid, but they just wont even try cod, because i think their scared of failure tbh
