I was watching Shroud play MW2 a bit and it is insane how accurate and fast he is. I can barely even register what he is doing when he was sniping while moving around.

I think a huge key to having success is being able to not get frustrated and most importantly, find an area to patrol and stay there. Letting people come to you as you hold down a few entry/exit points is the way to go, as falling into the run toward the other side of the map and die syndrome is a real thing.

Sometimes i have to draw a line in the sand and force myself to slow down. I hate campers and camping so thats not what im talking about, more like what the kid w the sniper rifle was doing in the above clip.

Invasion is fun as hell. I went 92-5, got airdrop package>stealth bomber and got 11 kills with it. I got Mega Kill.

Edit: which isnt shit as I seen guys going 130+ kills n less than 5 deaths, invasion can get kind of out of hand.

I think it’s really cool how they’ve got attachments and camos locked behind using and leveling other weapons. I’ve been playing strictly domination, and working on all of the M4 platform guns. Just hit 39 last night.

I’ve got the M4, 556 Icarus, M16, and FTAC Recon all maxed out level-wise (haven’t really messed with tuning yet, other than to look at the menu a bit). Just unlocked the hurricane before bed last night, and will be messing with that this evening after work. I didn’t think I’d like these different guns, cause I’ve mostly used M4/16 in the past, but they each are unique and powerful in their own way. Having to use the Icarus to unlock the 16 really opened my eyes to the possibilities of different guns. I’m gonna play around with all of them in the coming weeks and months.

Got the riot shield unlocked and did some shield/knife work last night. I’m not sure the proper way to describe it.. mindless, hilarious, fun? I did a lot of the knife, kali sticks, and swords in MW 2019. Stun grenades are great for this. While this combo isn’t the greatest for getting tons of killstreaks, I did manage to get a mortar strike on my second game with it. And since I play domination the shield is incredibly useful for capturing points. Need to get the throwing knife unlocked so I can throw a knife at people when they cock their arm back to throw a Semtex or shock knife at me. Kind of a bummer they’ve got so much fun stuff unlocked at the higher levels.

Played with a younger guy from work last night. He told me all he does is play CoD and other shooters as far as gaming goes.. but god damn he’s good. I’m getting 21-24 kills on Domination in my better matches. This dude was in the high 40’a regularly kill-wise, though I typically captured and defended more. We seemed to get matched against better players when he was on my team, cause I was getting absolutely wrecked in some of the games. After he got off, I was back to top one or two on my team in my games.

Ive got no complaints about the game, and am having a blast. Bought a new PC with that stimmy money and have been waiting for a COD that wasn’t WW2.

So it sounds like it's pretty decent? Only CoD I played was in 2019 (buying it after getting into Warzone). The rest of my friend group have all bought it, but I'm still reluctant due to the price point being bullshit.

Coming from Destiny 2, where people complain that sniping is free, I have never had an easier time killing people with sniper rifles than in MW2. I shot some guy in the ass cheek yesterday and killed him. They take no skill at most ranges.

Games decent. Perk system is utterly retarded. Gun smith is still an overly convoluted pos.... I enjoyed the days of simple but strong perks and basic add-on management. Maybe I'm just a grumpy old timer now.... I play game after game with no goal in mind. I remember being eager to unlock certain guns, optics, pro perks, etc.... I mean who here doesn't remember shooting down 40 aircraft for Coldblooded Pro in the original?

Amazingly I felt more conflicted with the limited perks in the original MW2 as well... 40% more bullet damage or invis to killstreaks/thermal? Two weapon attachments, faster reloading/scavenging, or unlimited sprint? They've watered the perks down so much that they are bland. Sure Ghost still exists, but you get it for like a couple minutes towards the end of a match? Exciting.....

I will say that I was excited to unlock the heartbeat sensor and in the next 3 games I proceeded to see like 2 people with it in total. Thing feels useless and the range is either terrible or everyone I played against was running invis perks.

Just got the pdsw to level13 to unlock a sweet silencer that I use on the hurricane. Didn't mind this grind of shared parts and skins.

Honestly I dont mind the neutered perks.

Perks are not what makes the game interesting or fun. It does add a element to the gameplay that can help you achieve certain playstyles more effectively, or counter certain builds depending on the game. Some of the perk combos were just a little too stronk in MW1, and they tried to address it. Mainly Hardline, and scavenger.

As far as gunsmith, they have a shit ton of unlocks? I dont see what is bad about it. Honestly a more prudent argument is the lack of guns. They have a decent amount, and have many AR's which is nice, but I thought they could have had more. And is it really too expensive for one of the biggest game developers/producers on Earth to get real gun licenses?

Not some exploit
