You left out invisible to UAV and if you have Cold-Blooded Pro, your red text name doesn't give you away if a crosshair passes over you. Still, it can't be too overpowered or a majority of people would be using it. When I pop a UAV, it generally shows all but one or two players of a six man squad.
I didn't leave out the UAV. It is a kill streak and you are invisible to it. The only reason more people don't use it on normal gametypes is they have on Stopping Power and it is more useful to them on normal game types.. If you play a hardcore game, you might as well not even worry about using killstreaks because they are completely ineffective.
Ninja Pro is a big boost to Cold-Blooded. It makes your footsteps silent so that no one knows you're coming. I consider that invaluable to my play style. And yet not too many people must be using it, because I always hear people running up stairs or crunching through the snow.
What are you referring to specifically there? Collusion or exploits?
Does it matter? One stems from ill-thought out special equipment. The other is caused by a broken game.
I saw a funny version of collusion once. It was a game of Free-For-All and there were three guys in a circle jerk hiding in an upstairs room. They had tactical insertions set up so that they could take turns killing each other, while continuously respawning in that one spot. I should have dropped a semtex grenade in the middle of them, but I didn't notice what they were doing until I'd already taken them out with my gun. Naturally, when the game was over, those three had the top 3 spots.
That is atypical in that there were three, but that happens too much.As for exploits, did you play during that period within the last week or so where there were weird acceleration glitches? If you tried to move, you might find yourself suddenly zipping off at an angle to where you were running (which, on the Highrise map, might find you doing a Superman off the side of the building). You'd see people speeding around the map at absolutely ridiculous velocities (but they couldn't control when it happened or what direction they'd shift). I saw one Killcam where the guy ran up the stairs so fast that he hurdled fifty yards, spun in mid air and killed me from behind. I can only assume he was either the one causing it (and was able to control it) or he got phenomenally lucky.
I stopped playing in mid-January. The first time I played since then was the game it through me in with you. But I noticed all the same problems that were there when I stopped playing. IW just said 'fuck it, we have our money' to the community.
This is just another in an ever growing list of exploits showcasing how broken this game is.
Yeah, that can be a nuisance. Generally, if I notice I'm dying more often because people are getting a connection advantage I back out to the lobby and find a new group. I don't mind dying to someone who clearly got the drop on me, but if I shoot fill half a clip in someone who didn't know I was there and he squeezes off one hip fire that kills me, but the Killcam shows a completely different circumstance (like me walking along oblivious not shooting when I know that I was and him firing multiple rounds into me).
For me, it is just this game. It doesn't happen with COD4, Halo 3, Battlefield Bad Company 2, Bioshock 2, etc. etc. etc.I actually really enjoy those two maps. The one I've noticed people quit the most is Derail, which is odd because I like that one, too. I guess they hate people holding and defending that one building. The only map I tend to avoid is Rust. It's so small that you constantly have someone running up behind you as you spawn to shoot you in the back before you can start running.
Do you play any objective games?I haven't really noticed an issue with that. Generally, when I kill someone, I know from what direction they're probably about to come back at me from (not including Rust).
I generally know that too, until the game decides to switch spawns and starts spawning people right behind me as I run around a corner.
I'm just happy to have more maps. I was getting burned out one the old ones.
I was happy with new maps in COD4. This game, if that update that is supposed to come out when the map pack is released doesn't fix some these issues, especially the first two, I will be done with the game completely and IW better have some glowing reviews before I bother with anything else they make. It is a sad day when I say that Treyarch actually made a better game than IW because Treyarch just copies what IW has done.

This would excite me more if the Multiplayer wasn't so unbelievably broken.
