what happened to your 360? The reason I ask is because I bet its still under warranty

mine broke down with an E74 error code and they fixed it for free. They have a repair depot in Dallas

nah I haven't played in a long time so I'm hella rusty. I would say Mike or Protege although Mike's room mate "Charles?" is a beast.

u mean COD 4 Modern Warfare? None of ya'll play World At War? The online is so much better than COD4. There's 2 map packs and they improved on so many factors.

Which match types do ya'll play?
I prefer Hardcore Free for All and Hardcore Search and Destroy.

Oh yeah Cod4 Modern Warfare. I haven't tried World at War online yet & I would need to get the one for ps3 if we started playing that, b/c I currently own that one on the 360. I'd be down though.

I typically play team deathmatch or some sort of random free for all deathmatch.

What's your screen name? madgods?

yep, madgods. i think if you really like Modern Warfare online you'll like World at War at least as much. Same concept expanded and improved as far as graphics, maps, interface etc...
I haven't played in minute and I'd have to hook my system back up- but now that i think about it, I haven't played Modern Warfare online since WaW came out. Maybe i'll meet ya'll out there instead.

And the next Modern Warfare is scheduled for November unless that's changed.

I played WaW on 360. Bought it when my COD4 team all moved on to it. I like it a lot, but I think I like COD4 better. Lets put it this way, I prestiged once on WaW and did 5 times on COD4. That's how much more I liked playing it. And once I prestiged on WaW I went back to COD4. A lot of the guns just suck IMO. The carbine was the biggest disapointment ever...

I will buy it tho if u play a lot tho, madgods... The maps ARE way better. I don't wanna buy it tho if you don't ever play... rather just save for Modern 2. Ur on PS3, right?

My audio/video situation has been in flux so I've been disconnected for a minute but as soon as I get it back together it's on. I have to disconnect or I start looking at roof tops for sniper positions when I'm downtown and empty warehouses get me all giddy and trigger happy. Fo'rillz- i get like tetriscized after hardcore sessions.

Weapons depend on tactics, and tactics depend on match style, imo. If you play hardcore then the carbine is a fine one shot one kill weapon. Especially with a flash hider- although I still prefer the German Gewehr rifle for it's iron sights. Really good for stealth if you play Free for All. Generally all the German weapons are better. Just like real life. The double barrel shotgun is a fun addition, too.

There's an equivalent for almost all the weapons in either game, really. Plus all the Perks i think are improved. I really like to use the maps to my advantage, and so do other players- so the more dynamic maps help eliminate a lot of the bottlenecks and really obvious encounter points that make for super cheap kills in COD4. I've probably spent at least twice as much time on COD5 but i don't think i've ever matched my high kill score for COD4. Another thing about Prestige in COD5 is as you advance you actually get rewarded with extra Weapons Classes. It's useful if you switch between match types and/or switch your style for different maps a lot.

I'll let ya'll know when I get hooked up. Maybe 'game on' this weekend.

FYI- i never play with a mic.

Funny thing it wasn't until yesterday that I created a custom player. All this damn time I was just using the standard guns you get not realizing I had all these other weapons and add-ons just waiting for me like presents under the Christmas tree. Once I created my 5 custom players w/ custom weapons, add-ons, grenades, etc it was game on! I was running around the maps like a mad man & martydom is da shiz. It's funny watching some of these n00bs just stand there in glory after they frag me just to get blown to bits by my suicide grenade. Love it! I'm still trying to get used to the bigger maps. Still trying to find the good spots so I can unleash the pwr of the sniper rifle and yell out "BOOM HEADSHOT!" Roar! Honestly I was a little frustrated w/ the game b/c I'm used to playing FPS's on the PC b/c that's all I play/played and switching to console FPS's was an adjustment. Not only that just playing w/ the standard weapons and not using any of the items you unlock was the suck. I feel like yesterday was the 1st real day of game play I actually had. I kept finding myself saying "just 1 more game then I'm turning it off" 1 hour later.

One thing I strongly encourage is pay attention to the maps and try to watch what your team mates do/go. I found myself running into the sessions like the guns of navarone and dying fast. Now I try to pick my spots a little more carefully and save my sprints for running away from a grenade or when low on health just to reload on ammo etc.

Maybe once the new one comes out or heck maybe ever before that we can all pick a specific night/time we can all jump on the game? Just a thought. Even if it's just for an hour.

It's still fun though to run into a room full of enemies just to unleash a grenade all Bonzai style. After all it is a game and I have plenty of quarters lined up on the screen. Suck it bitch I got next, don't you see all these quarters?!?

p.s. mics are for fehgs.

Frag on! :twisted:

Man, what's up with both of yall not having mics! We mine as well just play against each other... The 360 clans I was in didn't even allow people w/o mics.

There is two things I've noticed from switching from 360 to PS3:

1) nobody has a fucking mic. 99% of the people on 360 do.
2) the competition is WAY weaker (thank god). I'm gonna level up quick.

I don't need a mic to own son!!!

Seriously plus if you unlock certain achievements the enemies can hear your team talking.

I let my weapons do the talking.

We're better off setting up a conference call for team play. Assuming you all have speaker phone.
