More of you guys need to do hardcore. Seriously good times but seems like I'm the only one up for it.
Amen. I have a hard time getting my head around the pages and pages of dog rapists and witches, since it's been weeks since I've had to deal with either. It's a beautiful thing.

So after reading a story synopsis on wikipedia, I finally understand the plot. However, there is still one thing that had not been explained to me:
Why did Shepherd betray you? There doesn't seem to be any explanation given, or if there is, I just don't understand it. Can anyone explain to me why he kills roach and ghost?

I quite like hardcore TDM. It forces me to not sprint everywhere which is forcibly making me survive. Annoyingly though I got knifed by my own team mate who spent the entire game talking about a monkey trying to control his brain when I was one kill away from calling in a copter. The lack of map when people make noises is kind of annoying too but I think the entire enemy team bar one having cold blooded may have emphasized that.
Point being I used a predator missile and coudnt see anything so it went to waste; in general is a sentry gun better to have on hardcore?

Shepherd was working with makarov to start a war with russia, which is why he got Allen into makarov's group. They slaughter a bunch of russians and kill Allen to make new bad russia really pissed off and start a war. When Task Force 141 is raiding makarov's safehouse they download all Makarov's info on deals he had with Shepherd, so when they give the data to Shepherd he kills them/incriminates them in order to make sure they don't figure out he was behind the war.

And the reason he's behind it is, as far as I can make out, as retribution for all the people killed with the nuke in the first game pointlessly - so he sets up America to look like the bad guy to try and remove them as the dominant power, which he doesn't think they should be.
Also regarding Ghost (ending spoilers)
Leitner mentioned he's probably going to be the MW Carmine, as in every game there's going to be a guy with the same voice actor who eventually dies.

Not really, no.
He does it so that "there will be no shortage of patriots" I guess the military was having recruiting problems or something after a whole bunch of them got nuked.

man, what?
His motive is not because 30,000 troops died, it's because 30,000 troops died and nobody fucking cared. He decided that the only way to make america give a damn was to get our shit kicked in by the russians.
"No shortage of volunteers, no shortage of patriots" means everyone will start giving a damn and join the military so we can kick russia's ass.

Killstreaks in general are really weak in hardcore because a) they're a lot harder to get and b) almost everyone is running cold blooded. The sentry gun isn't any better, because it can't see cold-blooded folks either. The best thing to do is get a feel for yours and your teammates' positions before firing the predator, then guide it toward the other area of the map; you should be able to pick up a guy or two without the thermals.

So why am I joining a domination game only to go into a max player free-for all on rust? I ended up just spawning, holding the trigger down and spinning until I died. Ended up with 34 kills.

I went on a run of about four games with unplayable lag tonight.
Really liking hardcore TDM though. I'm not any better at this game and I still do die a lot but they're annoying deaths and not bullshit deaths. I haven't been killed by an akimbo user that I've shot multiple times ever! The slower pace is also really cool. Well, there was the time when I spawned in front of an enemy (with my back to him) twice in a row but that's more stupid spawning than Hardcore. Scrapyard can bugger off, basically.
Famas + acog is great. Shame the thermal vision was complete pants.

Ugh, why does the Scar kick like a donkey you've just violated from behind? I decided on this prestige through to get the scar titles, and it's just a bullshit weapon for anything but mid range or less if I'm not in hardcore.

Between C4/grenades in the tunnels and snipers outside, the entire map would be a cemetery.
Because it's amazing.

pick up your best grenade launcher class, and hope you don't get spawned in front a bullet while it's in transit
anybody who even thinks of standing still on the point is blown up by everyone

It wont help with the aimbots.
