Tech Star Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Glad to see other people getting it. I was like there's no way the game has sold 6 million copies and counting and so far and EVERYONE is level 25+ :laugh: Heck there's always level 1~9 characters in games, even months later. It's pretty poor IMO, not that beginner friendly. I mean it does try to balance in that I had like a level 30+ player, and two high teens, where as the other team were in like the low/mid 20's. However me at level 1 trying to combat level 20's with better weapons/perks ect is rather unfair. Man up, son! MW1 was the same thing with dedicated servers on the PC, you play against EVERYONE. It only makes you better. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They certainly made more suitable for tacticool kids Silencers on high caliber sniper rifles, light machine guns and ****in shotguns WTF!? I enjoy the game very much but that is the dumbest **** I have ever seen This is the average gun in MW2: moar http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&...l=1&start=0 yeah high power rifles using silenceres! that is fake as hell oh wait http://www.cheytac.com/MilChSniperRifleUTube.asp shotgun wish the silncers on the shotgun was bigger though. it is much to small Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tech Star Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 In the first level the people are idiots. I just saw the GS video review and saw this: When they see the guns, why the **** are the people not running? They run only when the guns start shooting. Idiots.

Tech Star Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 because they are not paying attention? no one is looking there way Are you sure? Look again. I am pretty sure they would be able to see them before they started to fire. Also, how do you get into an airport with those big ass weapons without being seen by people and/or security and/or security cameras? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mokthraka Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 they are not looking that way... you dont see things like that when you think you are in a safe environment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can EASILY see them with the corner of their eyes. They see them with the guns here and yet they still just look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nagisan Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Its possible the people assumed they were security? The second they raise the guns everyone starts looking over at them and freaking out, before a shot is even fired. I mean seriously, if you saw a few people in tactical vests with machine guns standing around calmly in an airport, what would your first thought be, security or terrorists?

splur Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Anyone else find that airport level kind of ****ed up? I mean, I'm not against them putting it into MW2 and they definitely warn the player about it... but it felt weird mowing down innocent civilians with a machine gun.

Terrorists. Secuity would be wearing the same things as each other, not random suits with tactical vests on like those guys. Secuirty would have the word Security on their vests or NSA, SWAT, CIA, FBI, TSA, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the "that can't be real, this isn't happening" or "maybe if I don't make any sudden movements they won't shoot me" mentality. It's easy to analyze the situation behind your desk, but I think placed in it I'd probably **** my pants before I could run away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halcyoncmdr Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 The entire purpose of the airport level is to show just how extreme your opponents are and the lengths they are willing to go through to achieve their goal. You being undercover trying to infiltrate the organization are essentially going through an initiation to be trusted. You end up getting killed in the end when it becomes apparent that Makarov was just using you and knew you were an informant anyway. The entire level is meant to show just how extreme the terrorists are. You have multiple screens when starting the game to decide whether you want to play that level or not. You are warned ahead of time. Even as the level starts you can tell wt is going to happen before it begins, you easily can stop playing and go into the options to change the setting and skip the level. It is in no way required to be played, there are no achievements that require you play that particular level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dead.cell Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Weird or liberating? :devil: Liberating indeed! Heck, not sure if there are any children in the game, but I could sure go for shooting up some newborn children, specifically newborn girls. /sarcasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is in no way required to be played, there are no achievements that require you play that particular level. While I understand that is the purpose of the level, it still serves no purpose as the overall story is really not all that good and not really a story as much as it is a bunch of cool levels that they tried to make a story out of after the fact they designed the levels. I already posted a link in this thread somewhere with a video with IW themselves outright admitting this fact (piecing the story to the levels), so while some may like the story, it is in my humble opinion poor, so to put something like this level to enhance the story is nothing but a bunch of BS to me. They originally made this level cause they liked the idea of doing an Airport. Then they loved the idea of creating a level they knew would get people talking even more about the largest selling game of the year. I see zero artistic merit in this choice, but again that is just my opinion. With that said, I played the game, enjoyed the hell out of playing the game, but my experience would not have been any better or any worse one way or the other if this level never existed. Actually scratch that, my experience very well may have been a bit more positive as I am here right now saying I think the level was done in poor taste.

mokthraka Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 (edited) Terrorists. Secuity would be wearing the same things as each other, not random suits with tactical vests on like those guys. Secuirty would have the word Security on their vests or NSA, SWAT, CIA, FBI, TSA, etc. I some how doubt a single one of those would be on there vest considering your in Russia in that mission. we also have no idea what is going on in the country at that time. so we do not know how they would react to seeing someone with a gun in the airport. after all the security was carrying TMP's. but the storys for MW2 is starting to **** me off [spoliers] I am sick of the main characters always dying off. I mean sure its fine to have some of them die. but it would have been cool to keep playing as the CIA agent.[/spolier] I am glad they did the airport. its about time some devs grew a pair Edited November 13, 2009 by mokthraka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you guys trying to get to the bottom of this massacre of AI civilians? :rofl: Damn I still need to pick up this game, it's sucks when I see nearly everyone on my PSN list is playing it.

Your put in the position and you have to do what you have to do. Exactly. The media etc are portraying it as "You are a real terrorist" Not paying any attention to any other part of the story. Besides. They are pixels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
