But, Sentry guns don't count towards your killstreak? That is some fucked up shit right there. So, what, they fixed the Pavelow, but decided they should break something else to make up for it?
Never have. Sentry Guns only come from care packages (even the "proper" Sentry Gun killstreak comes as a crate) so they can't be used to build streaks.
I always found that to be lame, generally sentry guns aren't that awesome so I don't know why adding their kills to your killstreak would be that big of a deal breaker. Sure there are occasions when they can be awesome, but so can every other killstreak.
Agreed. I think it was just lazy programming, honestly. Basically an if/then statement that says if it came from a package, it doesn't add to the streak.
I've been playing this for the free weekend and I think I just got hacked...
Got thrown into a game on Rust where it was a FFA. Everyone had visible laser pointer lines coming off of their guns along with a targeting box over their body and the FoV was distorted. Every couple of seconds there was messages on the screen such as:
Graphics card overheated.
Perks have been deleted.
You will be VAC'd.
After I left I was at lvl 70 when previously I was only at lvl 30 and all my custom setups were renamed Suck Cocks. This has killed any thought I had of ever buying MW2. Now I'm worried that my Steam account will be banned because of something another asshole did.
edit: I just checked and I lost some of my attachments that I've unlocked and all of the pro perks that I've unlocked.
It is no easy task winning a 1v3. You must jump many a hurdle, bettering three armies, the smallest.
Aye, no mere man may win an uphill battle against thrice your men, it takes a courageous heart and will that makes steel look like copper. When you are that, then, and only then, may you win a 1v3.
I just joined a Team Deathmatch that made me level 70 and unlocked all the weapons.
:?
What the fuck. I enjoy unlocking weapons/perks/shit. If I get banned for hitting Team Deathmatch at the wrong time, HEADS WILL ROLL.

Boy hope this little gem doesn't migrate to XBL. Not to make light of your situation but I have to laugh at the "Suck Cocks" custom class rename. It's like this brilliant hacker has a chance to leave each of his victims a message and all he could think up was "Suck Cocks" what a silly goose of the highest order.
So apparently this game doesn't work with Windows 7 x64 and just freezes every time i open the game, right at the menu. Good job IW. Oh well its just a free weekend, wanted to see how it looked on my PC. apparently not.

this is now wide spread problem on pc due to free weekend
i would heartily recommend all pc players to not play on the free weekend
Yeah, really it doesn't take long at all to get back to at least the red dot sights (and aside from the TAR-21, FAL, and L86 I never bother with the holo).
Silencer takes a little while longer, but that's okay because I'm not going into S&D or Hardcore until I have Cold Blooded anyway.
It seems like forever before you get Ninja back, too.

Its a bit cheesy, but its fun. I was always terrible with sniping until I tried this, Now I finally understand why so many people snipe. Though it still takes some effort to stay out of the fray.

It's just you. I run 7 64 bit and the game has always worked perfectly fine.
I just figured out a new spot on Estate that will easily get you a nuke if they hold A. All you have to do is throw pipes over to the sides of the house while standing near the top of the white stairs. It is insanely easy as people think that they are safe at the front of the house and the vegetation blocks their sight. I think it's also a good grenade spam spot.

Fuck this fucking game so much. I fucking hate it but yet keep fucking going. Why am I doing this to myself? I gain absolutely NOTHING from playing. Nothing at all! Yet here I am. Fucking voting to skip Quarry. Hating myself every moment.

This is why I'm playing old games. Like the good Command and Conquers.
And Reach. That game needs to come out in full goddamnit.
Also SCII. I'm certainly satisfied with this game, 24~ days of played time for 75 (plus tax) dollars is pretty fucking baller, if you ask me.
how many hours of play did you guys get in before you became the embittered husks that we see today? Because I just got this last free weekend and now I'm worried for my immortal soul.

You'll have to contact Fleck0 through either here or Steam.

It's a fresh reformat. I also looked up the problem, and it isn't just me. Tons of people have it.

One hundred twenty hours.
I had fun, for most of it, and I might pick it up again at some point if enough of IW sticks around long enough to patch the remaining problems before the studio's legs give out and their bones collapse and the lights go out.
But the online community on the 360 version is utter shite. I always plugged a headset in and let it dangle. So not interested in anything those cretins have to say.

I just run through the lobby and go "mute mute mute mute" and then if I can't get them all I go "mute mute mute" in the game.
Because I'm usually with at least 3 PA'ers, if not a full 6. XBL is the worst community in the gaming world, there are so many fucking kids.

You know you've found the secondary for you when 4 of your classes have it. Thanks guys, for showing me the M1014. One sitting and it went from 0 kills to 111. It's like a SPAS that makes up for shorter range with the ability to actually make that second shot when your target inexplicably shakes off buckshot to the chest. Plus the M1014 seems to be more reliable within its OSK range. Can't wait for Extended Mags.
So yesterday, on the 360 I was watching my buddy play and some shenanigans were afoot. We may have experienced the next round of game-breaking bugs! Here's a summary:
Joined free-for-all. Discover that the game we got into was being nuked. My buddy quickly quit. Then he realized that we both love doing a little Sandy Ravage-esque Booster's Justice! He joined one of the recent players and got back in the game. It was still in progress, with the nuke countdown timer, AT EIGHT MINUTES!
For the next eight minutes the nuke siren sound was going off and the count down was ticking away. The guy who did it, (Y)our (A) (B)itch -letters in parenthesis are Xbox buttons on the display of course- was using some crazy gun that, my hand to Spas-12, played the AC-130 noise (for the big shot) and the person would be utterly destroyed and then replaced by a goddamn ray of light.
I'm not sure how scoring worked but it was wonky. My friend never moved at from "0" at the bottom of the screen because Nuke stops all the scoring. There was no game time (because nuke stops that too) only the unusually large nuke countdown. The change was reflected in the post game stats though. I'm pretty sure he was racking up points as he shot people though. The winner went 70-44 or something like that and won by the nuke. In free for all.
What's that? The sound of my PC and a sweet, sweet nostalgic Ultima Online server is calling me...

I miss my FAMAS already.
And the FAMAS is the first Assault Rifle in the game, so you get it at level 4 anyways.
PA box people get on ahhh

I still miss my digital sight. Fucking hacking bastards ruining my experience. :x
