Sethos Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Maybe it's just me, or maybe the maps are more open but I have barely seen a claymore, like...maybe twice!! :s They used to be EVERYWHERE in COD4, what happened? :laugh: They were replaced with a lot of other tard-weapons to use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g~man Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Does anybody consistently use the AK47? That was the only gun I used in the original MW but I hate how it is level 70 in MW2. Each time I hit level 70 I prestige so I never get to use it. tried it yesterday for the 1st time. cant see why anyone would pick the ak47 over the scar to be honest They were replaced with a lot of other tard-weapons to use i have claymores on all my classes... except 1 sniper class and 1 famas class what would u consider a tard alternative to claymores?

How do you not prestige? Leveling is the entire best part of multiplayer. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chasethebase Reporter Posted February 27, 2010 Reporter Share Posted February 27, 2010 Yeah I don't see the point in Prestige, having to unlock everything all over again seems stupid to me. Plus I love the AK, I use it a lot. That or the SCAR. More often I'm using an SMG class though like the UMP45 which is a great weapon silenced!

Sethos Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Back in the first Modern Warfare, I constantly told myself I wouldn't prestige - I then went prestige. I told myself I wouldn't do it again but I did. It was actually quite nice to be 'forced' to use some of the lower level weapons so you didn't have a ton of choice, I was picking new weapons every other round because I couldn't decide. Plus, it also makes you feel like the XP is going somewhere, gives you that extra drive to do some special moves etc. I couldn't stand watching my XP going nowhere. I think prestige is awesome and a fantastic idea. Green_Eye 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cupcakes Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 I never prestiged in COD4, just didn't feel like it. I do prestige in MW2 though. It's honestly not that bad.. If you do challenges, you can easily get back up to higher ranking with any weapons you usually use. I prestiged again the other night and played a couple of hours (barely) and was already back up to a 34. Cycle through your weapons and rank them up, do your challenges and rank up. ;) Prestiging ain't got nothin' on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spookie Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 UPDATE 11:20 PM: It turns out Activision may have showed their hand in this matter earlier today.In an SEC filing made earlier today, Activision cited a human resources investigation into "into breaches of contract and insubordination by two senior employees at Infinity Ward." Based on the information we currently have, at least one of those employees may have included Infinity Ward CTO Jason West. It's possible Vince Zampella is the other unmentioned employee. "This matter is expected to involve the departure of key personnel and litigation," read the Activision's filing. "At present, the Company does not expect this matter to have a material impact on the Company." Unlucky. Dance with the devil, expect to get burned.

HilariousNinja Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Apparently according to West's facebook profile and linked in, he's lost his job. Source; Kotaku Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trag3dy Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 A poster on Kotaku said that their royalty checks are due to be paid soon. Pretty damn low if true. No idea if it's true or not..but with Activision anything is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they can kick-start something new and refreshing without having the sequel crazy Activision on their heels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR_Candyman Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I was thinking about that royalty cheque thing. It doesn't really make sense unless Activision is wanting to be sued. Technically they could falsify sales records and risk the wrath of the government, but really, just to save maybe a couple million? I really doubt they would do it. Also this whole publicity stunt thing makes no sense either. It won't dull the sales of Bad Company 2, nor will it encourage sales of MW2. The only thing that does make sense is IW wanted to make something new and Activision, being the sequel company they are, didn't want them to.

LingeringSoul Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Maybe Jason West got sick of being Bobby Kotick's lapdog. One of the reasons that these guys formed Infinity Ward in the first place was to get away from being shackled by EA. Out of the frying pan and into the fire?
