I bet that guy originally put that camera there to record himself jerking it. Then he realized he could make movies for the whole world to see! 'Cause who doesn't want to see some half-retarded, half-redneck, half-I-dunno dude yell for 5 minutes about a video game. Oh YouTube. You just had to give people an outlet, didn't you?
Man, it's amazing how different this game is when you're using a gun you actually like using. I'm only a couple penetration kills away from my L86 mastery, and it's be a ton of fun. The three previous masteries have been the F2000, MP5K, and P90 (note: SMGs aren't my style). I've gone from fighting just to not feed enemy killstreaks to carrying my team in most matches to the point that it's starting to annoy me that every fucking pub I play with sucks so much. I would have been done this mastery last night, but I just unlocked my Stinger (Thank God!) so I spend half the night in my AA class since I'm apparently the only person playing this game with the Stinger unlocked.

Oh god, I've just had the same horrible experience with a couple of mates. We were in a lobby with what was obviously a party of five, so naturally we would always be drawn against them. This wasn't so much of a problem. They had a witching phase early on, but we weaned them off that with some solid play. Things were looking good.
Then some pub joined. His name shall not be repeated, for protection of the fucking stupid.
This guy. If he hadn't been in the lobby our party would have won every game. Every. Game. We three (plus three dead weights) were just better than the 5 and 1. However, since there was more room for random pubs on our side, we usually ended up with He Who Shall Not Be Named.
And he died. And died. And died.
0-15. 2-14. 1-12. Etcetera. What would have been comfortable wins inevitably came down to the wire. All three of us would desperately search for kills in the wee seconds of the game, usually to fail only one or two short. Him plus the average suckiness of the two other random pubs meant that me and my mates needed to all have good-or-better games. And someone always needed a bomb game just for a shot at the win. On Karachi, I got 21-4, with an incredible streak of about 15 kills in one life (off UAV-CUAV-pred Missile). I ran out of bullets in both my starting weapons, and kept on going with whatever I found. And we still fucking lost.
We played about 20 games in that lobby out of stubbornness. I'd say we lost at least 15.
I love those ones, especially when the rest of the team is comfortably above level 30 and I'm the only one trying to down air support with a goddamned L86 and AT-4s.
Jackasses.

I love holding my team's hand through a game of Domination. "No, guys, just defend since we have two points. No, don't cap C. dammit. alright, recap B and let them keep A. Fuck it, I'm getting my AC130."

Yeah, the game before I unlocked my stinger I took out a Pavelow on Terminal with an AT-4 and my L86. I was killed shortly after that because I had no ammo left and couldn't find a weapon on the ground. I got shot in the back with my semtex in hand. Although, on a positive note that single chopper glitched me up to CB pro. So it's not all bad.

Pubs do not play domination to play domination. They play to get more kills than they would in TDM, and because they can camp a spot and be almost guaranteed to have people come to it.

pubs are fucking terrible in every situation imaginable and it doesn't seem statistically possible that you always get stuck with people who go 1-15

I have a pal who refuses to use his stinger. I tell him time and again to make a single stinger class so that when a harrier comes he won't die more than once before the thing is gone. he has never made that class and relies on me to destroy the enemy air each and every time. He's even begun to complain when I don't take it out quickly enough.
I imagine he has the same mindset of all the folk who don't have a stinger class 'The harrier might not kill me this time so whilst it's killing all my teammates Imma gonna get me a killstreak!'

After a couple of killstreaks hanging around and I'm the only one shooting them down I stop doing it and just go to my cb class without the Stinger. Fuck those guys if they're not going to help. I'm perfectly fine with a silenced Scar and letting them die because they're stupid.

I had a game a few weeks ago where I used all of my RPD ammo, my rocket, both flashbangs, and my semtex. I then stabbed a man through the heart, picked up his gun, and killed lilke 3 or 4 more people with it. It was glorious. And gave me my longest killstreak ever. Which still isn't very impressive.

I've been going for the stealth bomber emblem and I was getting really disappointed in it as a killstreak until today when in the two times I called them in I got quad kills. It makes me feel warm and fuzzy. The second time the harrier added to the fun and I think I got six kills at once, good times. I was kind of sucking in that game plus the other team called in an EMP right as I got my second predator and that drove me nuts.
The Stealth sucks so bad in comparison to the Pave Low. Like, 4 kills is a great stealth. 4 kills is a terribly below average Pave low. I mean, if the stealth made like 3 bombing runs, it might be worth the 9 kill streak.
On the bright side, it was nice playing a team of witches on Favela while I had Sitrep Pro + silenced F2k. Sumbitches must be grinning ear to ear imagining that they're coming up right behind me an- TIKKATIKKATIKKA.
And a killcam showing an Oracle who turned and aimed straight at the door he just came through.
i hate tubing. so much. i dont know why, but i am completely terrible at it. i only ever get hitmarkers, and i always die when my guy takes his sweet ass time reloading (i run scav with it cuz it usually takes me two shots to kill a guy). I embarrassed the hell out of myself last night playing with burtletoy. it was a miracle if i went positive (thought i think being the only guy with 3 bars helped in that area...)
and burtle, GuitarsOnFire or whatever was totes legit awesome with his SP ACR that he used every single match.
so what's with not playing with me tonight? why no love?
Revenge for you not playing last night.
Actually, I didn't see your message pop up. So I didn't even know it was there until you were already gone. And a lot of people got left out tonight. No one was feeling the ground war vibe. I think Friday I'm going to get drunk and start a GW party, though. Because that's how I roll.
I"ll def be up for a GW party. Sorry for not taking the invites I got today but i'll def get back into this tommorow or later in the week. If MW2 had a pitgirl I think it would keep a lot more people.
so what's with not playing with me tonight? why no love?
I still you Sanguine. Sorry I didn't take that invite. I was just playing a couple/few quick games on my own without a mic. Needed to shoot a few people in the face and then I signed off.
I did notice that there was a party started up, but apparently people weren't meeting the must-be-this-cool requirement to play along. :P

His whispering is so stupid. Like I believe you're so in awe of that weapon that you've gone reverently silent.
"This, is the Barrett Fifty Cal. It'll go through you like a fat kid through a chocolate bar. You don't wanna be in the way when this thing's coming through the air - if you know what I mean."
I'd rather have a Saiga than an AA-12. Cheaper, easier to find mags, AK reliability (because it's based off of the same platform) and accessible as a civilian.
Had a really excellent series of kills last night on...Downpour, I think. It was like an awesome ninja action movie or something and it makes me wish MW2 had a video capture option like Halo because it was pretty ridiculous and I wish I could show it off.
Some guy was hiding in a corner inside an officey type building in the middle of the map and he killed me once (just barely) so I ran back and as I was running at the door all these explosions and flash/stun grenades started going off in front me so I leaped through the smoke at full sprint and blindly stabbed at where I remembered him being, SHINK dead.
I exit from the other door and see three enemies moving towards me from the bridge. I stick a throwing knife into the guy closest to me, getting another knife from his corpse as I lay down to avoid getting shot by the two guys behind him. As soon as I hit the ground I threw the knife I just picked up into his friend, killing him, then run up and stab the next guy, picking up a new throwing knife in the process.
I immediately realize that I've become surrounded, so I throw the next knife at a guy in the distance, killing him, then I attempt to stab a guy who's right in front of me (didn't see him at first) only to get shot from behind in mid-stab.
That was my second death of the match and at that point I had already accumulated around 12 kills or so (the match had just started, really). Our team won that game by a pretty wide margin.
Naturally, I went something like 4-17 for the next two matches so I quit and went to bed.

From your description, I think the level you're talking about is called Derail. Although if it's one of the expansion pack maps I don't have them.
No, he meant Underpants, which is the MW2 version of MW1's Downpour.
I'm gifted at this stuff. It's like the one time my roommate was playing Halo 2 upstairs and I told him what map he was playing on cause of the sound of his footsteps making on the map.

To be fair, officey building in the middle of the map near a bridge describes both of them pretty well. I never played MW1, so the name didn't mean anything to me.

But it doesn't and isn't.
PS, why does the AA-12 go from being good at killing one guy to good at killing entire team once you get 16 rounds instead of 8?
If you go see Expendables Terry Crews will tell and show you.
