Modern Warfare 2 - Multiplayer

Played the game quite a bit more today, and it finally struck me why the MP isn't actually that fun. It's the killstreak rewards. In MW1, they were already pretty deadly (chopper 4tl), but in MW2 they take on a whole new level on lunacy. You can win a game based solely on a single killstreak reward, which can often be obtained from the supply crates (only 3 kills, with that one perk). These killstreak rewards really detract from the game, as they disincentivise good play, and promote endless camping in order to obtain the killstreak rewards. I don't want to play a game that promotes camping. If I did, I'd go off and make a "camping simulator" complete with tents, fires, food and wild animals...
 
If somebody has a stinger, it can take down the AC130 or the heli's....

But, most of the time you playing with random people online and don't know who has rockets. If it was private game with friends, you could have one/two players with rockets to take it down asap...

Exactly the same as MW1, with exactly the same problem - no one wants take a rocket launcher, or use their ammo, or their time to destroy the chopper or the AC130.

The one day we where so out match me and a other guy got about 50 kills and the rest about 7 or so, we had non stop choppers. I think me and that guy shot down 15 choppers. Because no other persons wanted to shoot the chopper even when they where being raped by it.
 
Loaded up MW2 yesterday to have some fun. Joined a game and was getting my ass handed to me, 3 kills 7 deaths, managed to get two kills and then caught a sniper napping in a building. Was busy looking for some more when the same sniper and another guy walked into the building but didn't see me as I was sitting in the corner.

Easy kills. :)

Call Predator and spot the same two guys running back to the building for revenge....... denied.......

Get my supply drop...... AC130. :cool: Was sitting on 20 kills 7 deaths after that. Then I get an invite to join Mappy. I'm like: "Right after some more pwnage" :evil:

And then............ BSOD!!!!!! :mad: WTF!!

PC reloads, jump back into MW2, decide to join Mappy's game..... BSOD!!!! It cost me to re-install OS. Decided to go with Win7, but it's giving me problems running Steam. Was too tired to fix last night. Will sort it out tonight.

What a sucky end to a great weekend. :(
 
Tox, weirdly though I was getting random BSOD's with MW2 aswell. Strangely it was ONLY MW2 displaying this issue, as I jammed a couple of Hours of COD4 and allmost an entire day Borderlands with no issues, Went back to MW2, not even 5 minutes, BSOD.

Now here comes the REALLY strange part. I'm still a bit puzzled. It was my RAM :/

I dropped my Ram from 1066 to 1000, and never had a BSOD since. Weird hey?

Could it be possible that the new MW2 update via steam caused this because someone else i know also had the same problem :rolleyes: i havnt had it myself but i can see this as a common problem

I had this issue still on 169, before update 172. BUT I have heard the same thing, ppl having crashes and BSODS after the 172 patch!
 
I had a BSOD once while playing MW2, but was right after the initial install. Haven't played much since the update though.

And.........I knifed maplassie :D I almost cried tears of happiness.

Good game, great fun, lot faster paced game then MW1. Not sure how long people will play it though, with Bad Company 2 coming out in Feb, might see a drop in people playing MW2.
