Nah, just that playing BF3 by myself wasnt too much fun and playing with the PA guys was all sysuper serious because there'd be PA folks on both sides and they'd get bitchy if you didn't play the way they thought you should play. But, yeah. I'll ask the guy whethere I can borrow his copy of MW3 when he's back from his holiday.

Man, I get super angry when we lose a game of Dom because the enemy team is actually pushing objectives and we just get so fucking flabbergasted that we don't know what to do with ourselves.
How about stay the fuck out of their spawns and actually defend the point without flipping the spawns so your team gets spawned in every four fucking seconds?
Cause you know thats pretty high up there on the checklist of how to win dom games right next to capture points.
Over 75% of the time when they start "pushing" its because someone is balls deep in their spawn and causing it to flip.
Nah, that's not what it was. I'll post more later.
As it is now, toobz are good for nothing other than long range Recon tracers.
The tube is more reliable as a ranged melee than it is as an explosive device. It might as well just shoot a rocket fist.
BTW, I had another crazy game idea while I was at work. Sneak up behind a guy and tag him with your Tac Insert. He stays tagged, even through death. When you die, you chest-burst out of him.
@vey Your brother(in law?) was a cool cat. I felt so bad for him, me having to remind him over and over that I was on his team. I guess he'd never played in afull party so wasn't used to our names being different colors than green. Also, ouch at getting only 1 kill per game. A real trouper though.
Yeah the shucks you thing was right at the end of mw2, and was a play on Woody's inhibition on saying fuck out loud. It was great because it came out right before cee lo blew up (before his music video got air play). Then they started the Painkiller already podcast and it was cool.

He's a hard working guy who needs to play from time to time. I want to thank everyone we played with for their patience and encouragement. He had a blast which was cool because he had been playing public matches and wasn't having fun. Pubbies can be cruel. He told me some people made fun of him and told him to leave and never play again. So thanks guys.
I don't see the problem with Assassin. That's probably because I use it all the time, but I don't camp or anything. My main class is an unsilenced "Imma run at ur face" SMG class.
Edit: Is BLOPS 2 really the next CoD game? BLOPS campaign was terribly uninteresting.

Everyone has a price. Throw enough gold around and someone will risk disintegration.
Different strokes and all that. I thought Black Ops' campaign was a lot more interesting than the Michael Bay stuff Infinity Ward churns out. I should say that I really enjoyed the entire Modern Warfare story, and the gameplay was fun right up to the end. Infinity Ward does action better than just about anyone. But I liked Black Ops' story more, which has a lot to do with the fact that I think World At War's single player was awesome (and hard, which ties in to awesome). And I like the shit out of Viktor Reznov.
I would play through all of Black Ops again just for Vorkuta.
The map designs of MW3 sort of mitigate camping, most of the time. There are spots, but they are a lot harder to hold than in Black Ops; so the camping ghost trolls are not quite as terrible in mw3.
Seriously, I never hear people bitch about just assassin. Yes, it sucks when they sneak up behind you and you're focused on the minimap, but, honestly, how can you tell with the spawns in this game?
Bullshit to both of you. We've bitched about Assassin plenty, and it's still one of the most used perks we see on the enemy teams. But unlike with Black Ops, there are few to no substantial counters. I can't block their radar with a Counter UAV, they won't show up on the radar with an Advanced UAV, and they're even immune to EMPs.
And stacked killstreaks helping with the problem? What do you mean? It prevents them from camping? We bitched about people camping while their streaks got them further streaks in MW2!
Ghost and Assassin are both problems that need to be addressed, and that video offered a lot of great ideas from the community, but I don't believe they're tied that much to camping. They help campers, sure, but they don't create campers. Sitting in a corner the whole game is a mentality and a lazy playstyle, not a perk.

I'm guessing its nothing new to you, but people in MW3 have some serious "YOU SHOULD PLAY LIKE I DO" issues, a guy from Finland wished that I died from cancer because I shot him twice, I've found myself slowing my playstyle down immensely on certain maps and people do not like it, but whenever I really run and gun all over, people spawn in my back or at my side, with their weapon already pointing at me.

Fuck. That. Shit.
All pubbies are like that. They just like to bitch when they die. It's not THEIR fault. It's YOUR fault, you cheap, cheating scum!
Most of the PA Call of Duty people don't really care how you play so long as you don't flip spawns in an objective match.

I'll admit when I die to some dude in a way that I found cowardly or lag related, I will bitch to myself, but never in game chat and I will certainly not send angry texts to anyone, why would you even do this? You just admitted that you are mad, so the guy on the receiving end has the advantage to make you even more angry.
My new reply to all the "Die of cancer" "Camper" whatever texts I get is simply "Wipe your tears and stop crying." followed by a blocking of their profile.
And stacked killstreaks helping with the problem? What do you mean? It prevents them from camping? We bitched about people camping while their streaks got them further streaks in MW2!
Stacking killstreaks means people don't run UAVs.
People not running UAVs means I don't notice or care that people have ghost, and less people have ghost because it doesn't do anything unless there is a UAV up.
They help campers, sure, but they don't create campers. Sitting in a corner the whole game is a mentality and a lazy playstyle, not a perk.
It's not their fault people are so eager to rush in and get shot. I mean, I know there's obviously delicious candy around every corner in CoD that necessitates running at full tilt room to room always, but sometimes you have to control those unspeakable urges and just throw a flash grenade or live grenade or rocket or maybe some harsh language in there. Or just avoid the spot you think that maybe someone doing that is.
Delicious case in point: I watched a pub team get eaten alive because they couldn't figure out to go AROUND and flank their targets. At the end of the game, I was 9-2 and the rest of the team was somewhere like 5-15 simply because they would not stop going into places they knew to be fire corridors because well HELL look at all that CANDY.
If I can seriously screw up an enemy team by remaining at one point and just staying there, I just bust OUT the S'mores. Alas, there seems to have been a deliberate attempt to make MW3 in particular more amendable to people getting behind you. Everywhere. Right after you spawn.

Nothing to do with camping.
Which is fine if Ghost/Assassin only countered UAVs. They don't. They do more, particularly Assassin. Ghost never bothered me because we had Counter UAVs up and a Blackbird every game. None of those things would be effective against someone running Assassin. People aren't using it in MW3 in huge abundance because they're afraid of UAVs.
@MrVyngaard: There's a difference between defending and camping. I'm fine with defending chokepoints from stupid enemies.

I rarely take notice of what someone is using re: perks/weapons in MW3 unless it is a Type 95 or perhaps dual FMG9s.
Whether this is because it is more full of BS than BLOPS was (and therefore it's not even worth getting mad at a particular perk or weapon), I don't know, but I do know that I enjoy MW3 more than BLOPS (and only slightly less than MW2).
I do like killstreak stacking though. Whether it has anything to do with ghost/assassin, I don't know.
Assassin isn't an issue. Like brutle says, stacking killstreaks + good perk competition = few assassins. And really, it's the number of Assassins/Ghosts more than the effectiveness of it that gets people raging. Die once or twice to an Assassin? No biggy. Die all game long to a team of Ghosts? Sort of a shitty thing.
The BE/Assassin split is nice too.
It'd be cool if either CUAV/EMP still affected them OR portable radar/HBS picked them up, but it's still much of a muchness.

Again, this is something that you literally can't notice. Do we have a CUAV up? How the fuck would I know.
Being immune to CUAVs and EMPs is something that I can't tell happened, even if I watch the killcam.
The only noticeable thing that being an assassin gives you is not appearing on the radar when a UAV is up.
And since there are less UAV's due to stacking of the streaks, it is harder to notice an assassin, and there are less assassins.

When I say I don't see people complaining about just assassin, it's because they're never only complaining about that. It's complaining because the spawns flipped, and the UAV didn't show them.
Almost invariably, it's "YUP! TYPE 95 BLIND EYE ASSASSIN! EAT A DICK"
Rank the bullshit in this game. I'd be supremely amazed if assassin is in the top 3, let alone the worst thing in this game.

That list is perfect.
Edit: Minus Dead Man's Hand. That shit is hilarious.
But Brutle, that's an illusion of a solution. Their abundance and power does not go away just because a UAV is a less popular streak choice.
I don't want people to not use Assassin. I just don't want them to have a huge laundry list of incredible bonuses to the point where you may as well not use anything but Assassin.

It was fixed by making Hardline the best red perk, and by making killstreaks stack, so there are ~5000% less UAV's per game.

In my opinion, their abundance in blops is directly due to their power, and their power is tied inheriently in the prevelance of UAVs.
Less UAV's = Less power
Less power = Less prevelence
