Just picked up the game Saturday. Finally put it in the xbox tonight.
Played for a few minutes, and got drawn off. It looks beautiful. Can't wait to play it.

Something weird happened with my game today. Was on playing during my lunch break, leveled up to a 66 in the process, got a few titles and emblems. But when I was back on later it didn't register any of my progress, titles were gone, emblems gone, kills were reset, and I was back down to a 65. Never happened to me before in any of the other CoDs, anyone else had this problem?

I have had problems with the lag in the game too. I've heard that they do not have a dedicated server for this one and that could be leading to a lot of the online play problems. Try to wire it up and see if it helps.

phew.. i thought I was the only one having issues... I'm assuming the servers just finally go overloaded because it just happened... wiring it up is gonna require about a 100ft. cable.. i have a long one, time to see if it'll do the job.

I had a long distance for mine too, but I just moved the whole damn router. It may help a bit, but there is still some inherant lag everytime I play and mine is 4 feet from my router and wired to it.

My problems with the wireless connection started with Gears of War:I and when I wired it it got better. All I ever play is first-person-shooters, so I hate lag.

JohnnyKay5 · 12-01-2009, 10:26 PM

did a little more exploring.. when i test the network status I get a gree 3/4 bars which is enough to be ok... However.. i was in a game and let it run to the end and it only then shows 1 red bar... not sure why the difference.

Hudaddy · 12-01-2009, 11:06 PM

I've been sticking with a bling'd out SCAR w/ RDS and silencer, steady aim and stopping power. That's what I use most of the time and works well for run 'n gun and long range too.

I want to get the akimbo 1887s. Looks like fun or a Terminator T-1000 chasing a car.

akimbo 1887's are a lot of fun, almost got a nuke with using those....and Johnny try hooking up an ethernet directly to your console/pc and see if that fixes it....lag is based on the host since there are no dedicated servers to begin with

Those things are a beast, really overpowered imo. Just unlocked the AK, liking it so far but not as much as the ACR. Think i'm gonna start trying to use the riot shield seriously, one of my live friends has been using it regularly and is a beast with it.

Ive been in a knifing mood tonight so i made a knife class.

UMP
G-18
Marathon Pro
Lightweight Pro
Commando Pro

And have a carepackage killstreak because once you get 4 kills you can pull out the carepackage smoke (like pistols on the original MW) it makes you run just a little bit faster. Hahaha it was so much fun 48-18. I know its know a great ratio, but pretty good for not firing a bullet.

(Also earlier tonight i gave the javelin bug a shot..... dang... good thing that is getting fixed b/c that explosion is ridiculous)

elderboy02 · 12-03-2009, 06:02 AM

I like using the riot shield on headquarters. It works best on the sub map b/c you can get into a doorway and block all the bullets while your team mates get the HQ

ucubed · 12-03-2009, 10:54 AM

harrier, ac130, nuke... those are my killstreaks

Yep, I was messing around with it last night. Riot shield, lightweight, marathon, martydom, stun nades, tmp w/extended mags, and throwing knife. Block the window/door, move back when they try to knife you, chuck throwing knife into face, bash if necessary, use tmp on mid range flankers, and repeat

ucubed · 12-03-2009, 10:42 PM

so until today, I've been using the nuke when I first get it, because it was so exciting and all the adrenaline getting those last couple kills...but after today I started waiting until the very last minute to use it, just for those extra kills...is that too mean?

No, not at all. Any round i'm tearing up I want to continue as long as possible. I do the same thing

elderboy02 · 12-04-2009, 10:00 AM

What do you all primarily use as a secondary weapon?

Right now I am using a GLOCK 18. I do have one class where I have a stinger to shoot down the damn choppers.
