    Woo, ran into two guys in a free for all tonight, not only javelin glitching, they started out with one constantly dropping a tac insert, and the other shooting him in the head, going for a nuke. Once I started hunting them down, they started trying to javelin glitch.

    Only one of the chucklefucks didn't have a javelin. Stinger glitching is adorable.

    I think that's why I like Domination far more than Team Death Match. The points seem to give the game a more structured flow which helps a ton on the larger maps for actually finding mans to kill.

    I agree, I usually play domination for this reason.

    1.20 K/D is pretty good considering that most players end up working from a deficit earned from their early rounds.

    The other people who play on my account will routinely put up 3 and 13 scores.

    Speaking of K/D scores, have you guys seen the people at the top of the global list? Some of them are at or near 40.00! They have like 40,000 kills and only 1,000 deaths. How in the name of...

    Accuracy is clearly the best stat. I'm like 23.5% which apparently puts me way up the charts, it's weird.

    Everyone else is spraying with their full-auto weapons like crazy. The rest of us with our 3-shot burst or single shot weapons are doing better.

    Thus, accuracy is the best grade. ;-)

    Good lord it's like a whole different game playing with people from the PA board.

    I'm curious, in what way is it different ? (not sarcasm, I've never joined a PA group, but Im considering it for MW2) I'm mostly playing TDM, because my microphone is broken and i need a new wire for it, still got the "default" xbox one, but it sucks ass.

    My friends are rarely on when I am, and I'm doing fine on my own, its just that i actually would rather try teamplay (the last estate run with pubbies running into a fucking LMG rain like 5 times in a row with 3 of the same people (15 deaths by stupidity) is kind of annoying to get a loss for, and is there any kind of way to play as for example, a PA only team againt pubbies ?

    My K/D is 1.86 on PSN, having now returned that version, I'm glad I was able to keep it that high. I had 4000+ kills if I remember right. Which is weird, considering my K/D was no where near that good on CoD4.

    Getting 360 version soon, lets hope my K/D stays that high now.

    I'd say about 80% of the time when playing by yourself and 15% of the time when playing with friends.

    Example: Playing with PA tonight, those goddamn Javelin glitchers are the 15%.

    Anybody tried equipping blast shield to counteract javelin bug? Although I'm pretty sure the blast shield won't be enough because the javelin does such a stupid high amount of damage (in the context of the bug) it's something that might be a quick fix until this bullshit gets a patch.

    I'm also looking for a good group to roll with on the Xbox, my tag is Mirage84.

    This used to happen to me.

    I have overcome it by making Custom Class 3 my 'I want to be a silly jerk' class. Currently I'm running 'Futuristic Billy The Kid' with Sleight of Hand, Light Weight, and Steady Aim, akimbo rapid fire mini uzis, and akimbo FMJ .44 Magnums.

    The amount of amusement I get from running around a corner, sighting up on a buddy and yelling 'Hey, <buddy>... Draw!" and then opening fire without a care in the world cannot be properly stated. Coincidentally, my accuracy has dropped like 2 percent in the last 12 hours.

    I found the game fun, but I only played it when it came out and stopped shortly afterwards. I haven't even seen many of the glitching and admittedly, I was one of the first people to do "Witching" on the likes of highrise (as I just had a habit of using the knife). It didn't have a name then though.

    I didn't realize how nasty the 1887s are though as I never really thought to use them.

    Man, I originally took the cheaper helicopter for my 7th kill, and boy was that a waste. I finally unlocked the 7 kill harrier and it's nicer by a mile.

    Getting to five kills is the real challenge, after that the predator will get a kill or two towards the harrier and that only needs to score one kill for the emergency airdrop. It'll even hover around to cover while you pick up the goodies.

    My first predator - harrier - emergency drop gave me a precision airstrike, a pave low and a chopper gunner. That game ended 40-11.

    I hated M16 + Stopping Power in CoD4, and while it's still a pain, I take sollace in the fact that they suffer greatly when good killstreaks come around.

    Also, I am currently 68/120 on Sitrep Pro IV, so I've made good progress today.

    Thankfully I haven't had the misfortune of meeting any Javelin glitchers as of yet (cue game after game with dozens of the buggers).

    Finally came out of my Scar shaped cocoon last night, firstly with a riot shield spas-12 combo. Came across a group of enemies, back away around a corner with them firing at me, whip out the spas 12 and go all Gordon Freeman on them when they come a-chasing. I can see why people are singing it's praises. Might have to start packing it on some other builds.

    Secondly with the intervention, I felt slightly disgusted with myself using it on wasteland, so many hiding places! Is there a tracker for the 1-shot kills somewhere, I'd like to know my progress on ghillie suit gettings.

    If you have enough people you could run PA only, I guess. There were just three of us last night. PA guys will actually shoot down killstreaks, as previously mentioned. PA guys will try to use some basic teamwork. PA guys will show you some common courtesy. I think last night was the first time I ever heard the words "hey, good job" uttered on XBL Let me see if I can express the difference:

    every round of sniping I try lately ends up with me getting frustrated at dudes not dying when I shoot them in the face then getting sniped by ACRs all the while fighting with the parkinsons scope (even though I'm prone and the rifle has a motherfucking bipod) so I just plant claymores everywhere and go around shooting stuff with my dual revolvers.

    set claymores in front of the main entrance door and on the stairs, when you hear one go off or when the music changes go to the front door and wait with a 50 cal.

    also when you get to 5 done they all rush around and in the house (one might stay out near and try to snipe you, happened to me), and one of the might be a juggernaut that rushes (also happened to me)
