[Official] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

Why? I don't understand this. Is it because some maps you never do well on?

I'll only quit if there's horrid lag, or if someone is cheating/glitching.

Can't speak for him, but I'll quit if the map is horrible, and it has nothing to do with my performance on that map. There are certain maps that I can't stand, and I won't play on them. I like maps that I can run around in without worrying about bumping into randomly placed crap.

[rajputwarrior]

so in other words u camp? :p

maybe... no i just usually know where all the camping spots are in the map and kill the campers. Get way to get some easy deaths. I do like to stay in the house sometimes in that one map, i forget the name. The one with the three floors and the balcony overlooks the green house.

And my perks are ninja and cold blooded so no one ever sees me :)

Am i the only one who is getting a little annoyed at the unlimited care package glitch? I've been playing Headquarters alot recently and it seems every other match there are one or two guys on the other team getting emergancy air drops every few seconds. Sure, they racked up 60 odd kills, but they still lost the match 200-0...

Might only be focusing on using the glitch to get through some challenges too, so they can get to the next prestige faster.

I thought that patched that recently? I know the PS3 patch release on Friday was supposed to address the infinite care package issue.

Take into account that there are three platforms MW2 is on: PC, Xbox 360 and the PS3.

Simple deduction could have been done: PC patch is out immediately, PS3 patch is already out.. so.. if people are still doing a glitch that has a fix, it's obviously the one platform that has yet to be fixed.

Yeah. Thanks for dropping the knowledge. Clearly, you're intelligent.

There could have been multiple glitches, or someone found another one recently (because that hasn't happened before...). I had no idea Xbox 360 wasn't patched. A simple "Oh, Microsoft hasn't approved the patch yet" would have worked. Get lost.

You quoted him complaining about the infinite care package glitch and not any other random glitch. :)

Just because something was patched doesn't mean there isn't another glitch out there, or that a secondary glitch was exposed after patching the previous one.

holy over react batman, he was just saying as to why the 360 hasn't been patched yet. Maybe others didn't know what the reasoning was behind it?

You're kidding, right? She gave no insight at all as to why the 360 hasn't been patched. Instead, she posted a smart ass reply, when a simple, more respectful post would have solved the issue.

Infinite care package glitch is the infinite care package glitch. The giveaway was that he said every few seconds an e-drop came in.

The previous care package glitch took about 25+ seconds to even "activate" the glitch if you didn't screw up. Which was fixed back in Nov 09.

Anyway, this was what you had to do for the previous glitch versus the new one which takes >4 to do and throw out the grenade.

1. go over a gun

2.knife and in the middle of the knife pick up the gun

3.immediatly after u pick up the gun pull out your care package

4.then drop tactical insertion

5.while he is sparking the flare be clicking RT to throw crate

6.pick it up and call your killstreak in and then you will have another care package

7.Rinse and Repeat

I'm saying someone could have just discovered a new way since the PS3 patch date on Friday. That's my point.

The previous care package glitch was found in November. The 2nd care package glitch was found in late January. A new care package glitch between Friday and today is highly unlikely.

You're right. I should stop questioning you.

Not highly unlikely at all. In fact it is absolutely a reality.

BOTH videos on or after this past Friday. and both clearly state after Patch 1.08

Not only that,

@fourzerotwo Ugh. This care package exploit is becoming the bane of my existence, but not for long. @infinityward is working on a permanent fix for it.

That tweet above can be found here. He posted that just two hours ago.

Note how he says "working on a permanent fix." That pretty much says to me this last patch on the PS3 did indeed not work, hence the use of the term permanent.

Finally, there is this tweet from someone called We Play COD clearly stating the Care Package is still there post Patch on the PS3.

Any comment on the reports of unlimited CP glitching post-patch on the PS3? Will this be the same for the 360?

So not at all that highly unlikely.

[Cupcakes]

Yes, I know I proved myself wrong (go figure, hm?)

I follow him on twitter so I saw his tweet about IW looking through code to resolve any other issues with care packages. The latest patch patch only fixes known glitches (from what he's publicly lead us to believe) so the last patch DID work for the previous glitches (you can search a few pages back to see a listing I had quoted which included the 2nd known.) That does not mean it's fixed glitches found after they released the PS3/360 patch because those go through certification (well, MS does not sure how Sony does although I know theirs is much quicker.)

PC might already have the patch now since they can push it through IWNet. PS3 and 360 users won't see a fix for new glitches (the one you linked up) for a few weeks still unfortunately.But as far as the previous glitches, those are fixed in this patch already released (and still pending for 360.)

Thank you. So yeah, that answers my question. That's a let down. It is really bad.

WTF Since the latest steam update I cant open mw2 at all, it just freezes at the main menu. The only way I can get it to open is disabling my network adapter, opening it, waiting until it says connection to steam failed, clicking play now, after it opens re-enabling my network adapter and letting it connect to IWnet. There's a huge thread on the steam forums about it too but valve/IW have done nothing about it so far. :(

I came across a wierd bug yesterday and i thought i'd post here to see if anyone else has experienced/heard of it , i was playing domination on skidrow using the intervention and i got killed in that long hallway but when i spawned back there was a UMP .45 in my hands . At first seeing as it wasn't on any of my classes i thought i was spectating someone else for some odd reason but in the bottom right corner of the screen where it shows the ammo it was an intervention clip and even the name said Intervention , so i tried firing an sure enough it was still the intervention even holding down LT to look down the iron sights made the scope appear :\

[Chasethebase Reporter]

Swapped my Xbox copy for a PC copy. Much more impressed with the game as everything is sharper.

Unlocking everything again now but I had a good round with the FAL Shotgun attachment, the range on it is almost infinite (Like the old 1887s but with normal damage drop off).

Also had some fun rounds with Scavenger and the AT4-HS. RAWKET LAWNCHAIRS!

[Chemaz]

lol makes me kinda glad i have the PC version, iv never experienced any of these glitches or hacks. The only one iv come across is the javelin one and thats becaused i tried it for one round before it got patched. I havent even come across any hackers, or been on a hacked server. But i guess its only a matter or time/luck lol

[Hellacool]

It seems like people never learn either. I've blown the same guy at least four times in one match at the same spot!

Hey easy there, this is a kid friendly forum, leave your potty mouth home ;)

Wow that is pretty bad. I just posted in another topic about a spelling mistake I had but this one is even worse! "I've blown the same guy up..." Fixed. :p

For someone new to COD would it be better to get one of the other games or just jump in with this one if so which system?

It depends what your planning on playing. If you are going to play Single Player, start with Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare than hop on over to Modern Warfare 2. The storyline does not really follow but COD4's storyline was overall, much better anyways.

If you plan on playing cooperative with friends, you can only do so in Modern Warfare 2 or Call of Duty: World at War.

If you plan on playing multiplayer, I know there are probably some that play COD4 but I would recommend just jumping into Modern Warfare 2, it is practically the same with just more to each game in MW2.

As far as what system to play on, play on what you feel is best for your style and where your friends are at. I play on the Xbox 360 as I prefer the 360 over PC/PS3, use to prefer PC in the day. But also since all my friends have and play on Xbox 360.
