How do I get better at COD 4?

[Cry Havoc]

my anger?

Let's see. After the initial post with my score on bog, you're response was thus:

What's the max score available on PC version, Havoc? On xbox live its 750 ONLY and I average 20-25 kills. We should team up one day on something common we both have on the same platform. Ever been in any leagues? From what it seems, I'd bet we'd have some killer strats and plenty of aiming to go with em. maybe some cs source, as I've read you played quite a bit of cs in your day.

there's nothing i want more than someone local who I could team up with and start another team (i'm assuming your in SA). I've been on sponsored (by lan center) teams and have advanced in multiple Counter-strike/call of duty leagues as to my info. I've mainly been a CS kinda guy and I just made the jump to source since I got a new PC less than 2 weeks ago. I'm a little rusty and newbie to the source engine, but I'm averaging about 2:1 thus far.

i'm not an incredibly fat, childish loser either, in case that matters, though i do smoke some pot.

Annnnd after the 2nd post (not the 4th as you so erroneously claimed )

attention wh0ring . this is like the 4th time you've said this and posted screenies. Nobody gives a about your pub scores. The compe ion sucks, period. Upload a DEMO of you owning while ringing in a 5v5 or something and you'll deserve a few minor props. Upload a DEMO of you beasting with your team on a league, instead of needlessly bumping a thread just so you can show off your pub score halfway through a random match

Havoc: Check this screen I made halfway through the game! I just went 30-0 in a random pub with a bunch of newbies!

So yeah. I guess people are just noting how slightly inconsistent your posts are, and correlated with what went down lately in The Club, other posters on this site have essentially started to figure out you're a drama . Nothing more, nothing less. You even admit you're a , so why argue with everyone? If you're a , you're going to piss people off. You should be able to figure that out and then move on.

It's a made move. Nothing more.

Sooooo, the first time I post a screenie, you want to be my friend and buddy buddy.

The second time I post one, it's a move. Got it. That makes a whole lot of sense.

I stated an opinion and get called jealous, angry and stupid by little es like yourself bringing up some perceived 'ownage' that never occurred. Just like in the other thread. What post, other than Kori's which you keep citing, did I get owned? The 10 times pussylips asked for an answer I had already clearly given? Some troll just talking out his ass? Wow, that's great affiliation.

You're the one who responded to the trolls, dude. Don't blame other people because you decided to fight tooth and nail with EVERY person in there, until a mod comes along and then all of a sudden you're slathered in obsequiousness. It's readily apparent to EVERY poster who read that thread that you were calling out everyone else in that thread and talking trash/calling names/etc., but you wouldn't dare say anything out of line to Kori. And you call posting a screenshot a move? You got owned plenty of times, and yet the only one you'll subscribe to (in an act of self-preservation) was Kori. Yet if you're truly the " " you claim to be and you couldn't care less, you would have gone right after Kori for disagreeing with you too. Unless you really want everyone to believe that your acquiescence and her modship are mere coincidences.

Disagree that most, if not all, of those maps aren't memorized. The players killing you from where you can't find them know the map better than you, it's really quite simple.

It's also really quite simple that for the past month, we have been adding and subtracting maps on a 4-5 day rotation. And they are completely randomized, so it's not like I know, "Hey at 4:00 a map I know is on so I'll go pwn some people." We have probably had around 300 different maps on the server at one point or another. We try to cipher out the good ones and toss the maps that people don't like as much.

LOL, I never apologized. I wouldn't apologize, either. And I've apologized on this forum plenty.

That's about... uh... as contradictory of a statement as you can make. So you would NEVER dare to apologize on this forum.... except all the times you have. Got it.

Save whose face? My anonymous nickname's face?

Yes. Clearly you don't think about what other people think of you here. That's why you're closing in on 4,000 posts. If you really don't care what people think of you, why post here? A forum is supposed to be a social place where you enjoy the company of others. It's not too difficult to get along. I promise.

Then why the are you giving me for being a to Havoc? According to you, people can post whatever they ing feel like.

Because you're instigating disputes by calling other posters out for no reason. You're intentionally trying to stir up drama and piss other people off. Just because we have freedom of speech in this country does not mean you can go up to a cop and start calling him names -- or anyone else for that matter. The same applies to this forum. You can post whatever you like -- as long as you're staying in the realm of decency. But that has apparently waved "bye bye" to you long ago.

Cool story. Read above. Custom maps are "fun", and some perhaps even balanced, but if you want to outthink instead of randomly outgun your enemy, I'd stick with the guaranteed balance and design of official maps. Those unofficial ones are littered with 'gay' spots.

Yeah, wow, you're right. There are definitely no cheap-shot spots on the official maps of CoD4 and WaW.

Basically it comes down to this: Why do you post in a forum if it's just to piss people off and start confrontation? That seems like an awful waste of time to me. Unless you actually take enjoyment from it, in which case being on a Sports forum talking about video games are the least of your concern. I just think it's kind of sad that something within prevents you from having civil discourse on any kind of topic where others are disagreeing with you.

TLDR.

btw, you keep bringing up the eminem thread because you're a big p-u-s-s-y with nothing else better to say. You have no victory in it. You cheerleaded through it, . Every time you've tried to insult me, I had an answer 100x better than anything you could ever come up with. I paid respect to Kori because its her forum and I do enjoy many aspects of it. Go right ahead thinking I'm a for doing that, because every response YOU give me I meticulously, completely dismantle and make you look like the little piece of you are. Don't act like I started this, either. You had no reason to talk period in the rap thread, as 10 other people got to it before you did. You had no reason to keep talking in the end after Kori responded to me. You had no reason to bring up my name in the "new owner" thread in the nba forum. You had no reason to bring up the rap thread here. Indeed, it is obviously you who has a problem with me. Not only that, it is you who is obviously reaching to insult me, not vice versa.

truth is, anyone who would have posted a screenie like that would have gotten from me, but in jest. But quickly I'm realizing you're a , so I made it extra descriptive. Hope you enjoyed.

[resistanze]

Face it: if I had mentioned some type of music you didn't like, you wouldn't have cared at all. Its just that my opinion conflicts with yours, just like waw, and you can't stand that. Not my problem.

No one called you out for disliking rap. You tried to argue that it wasn't a genre of music while making sweeping and ignorant generalizations about a genre you don't even listen to. And guess what - it was everyone's opinion that you were a dumbass for doing so.

truth is, anyone who would have posted a screenie like that would have gotten from me, but in jest.

You're lying.

You're butthurt and too hardheaded to admit it. Time to move on.

Good for you. Keep making valuable contributions to Spurstalk as you have been.

And their all my opinions, which made you butthurt. LOL at thinking you could say the same thing I just said, and spin it to make it seem like the exact opposite happened.

And guess what - it was everyone's opinion that you were a dumbass for doing so.

More like, it's the only answer you can fire back since everyone, including Kori, knows it was at most, pompous and arrogant. Not an attack on any person even those who like rap. Additionally, I never argued it wasn't a genre of music. I argued it simply isn't music. However, I had no set definition, and admitted very early on it that when using the official definition, it is music.

Time to move on.

I'm sorry, when was the time to stay? I didn't start with you, in fact, because I like waw you started talking to me. AFAIC, you are all the ones butthurt and owned. You've kept after me through thread after thread in multiple different sections now.

I appreciate the encouragement.

Soooooo,

I got bored over the weekend and wanted to play Modern Warfare 1 again for giggles. After going through the test course in the beginning, it suggested Veteran difficulty.

So I did. Holy . Some of the parts are just ridiculous.

As it were, I beat the game and had to do "Mile High Club". Honestly, after braving the entire game on veteran up until that point (all gillied up, specifically), I dont see what was so hard about it.

In the past, I was always surprised by all the videos of it online. Maybe its playing on the PC or something else, but it took me maybe only 20-30 tries (just to get the timing down, really).

I had beat the game before, but not on Vet. Dont get me wrong now, I still died even when doing well because the AI suddenly becomes Annie Oakley at the most unpredictable times, that was frustrating. But beyond that, I had a waaaaaaay harder time on other missions (mostly because of sheer numbers of enemies).

"All Gillied Up" especially. I finally realized the choppers dropping off the soldiers are unimportant. Its the constant flow of soldiers from around the building that need to die en masse. Let Gaz handle the drop soldiers. You need to take your ass to the East corridor and kill every bad guy who comes around the corner. Save for a few heli-dudes that shack up behind the ferris wheel that you need to deal with, makes the level easy sauce. But not after dying hundreds of times. What really pissed me off though was I had setup my clays around the ferris wheel thinking that was where I would make my stand. Game saved after setup. After getting ing ass-raped in the first 2 minutes 12 dozen times, I rethought my strategy and it became a lot easier.

Anyway, just wanted to share my CoD4 experience. Still an outstanding game, through and through.

[Trainwreck2100]

Gaz isn't in "all ghillied up" It's Price's old boss

HA...who is the bigger dork?

Me for trying to name the guy or you for correcting me?



Youre right. In that mission, YOU are Gaz, iirc.

I bought this game for like 15 bucks a couple weeks ago for my 360 and loved the game. Beat it on veteran 1st time through, and DR is right - that end stand by the amusement rides on the flashback sniper level was a bit tough. I finally played online last night for the 1st time and this was the 1st time I had played online in a fps since Halo 2 for the 1st xbox in 2005, but I used to play the f'n out of that one with my brother (who lives across the state) and our friends. I'm thankful to say that it is exactly like riding a bike - ya never lose it.

After 5 yrs absense and a completely different format I was able to pick up and start killing/sniping relatively well. I jumped right into TDM and got berrated pregame for being a level 1, being called cute and new meat and all sorts of stuff, but that one match was the extent of it. Got a 18 and 8 on the 1st one mostly because I don't know the maps at all. Thank god sniping us the same though and I can still hit a guy at distance while on the move. It's fun, gonna have to check out MW2.

Quick question, how do you get to use the claymores and other rifles? I keep getting stuck with a 3 burst rifle that I hate, I want the one with the red dot sight. I always have to kill a bas and take his every time an that's just plain annoying.

Damn man, I really need to mellow out.

As you rank up, you'll get access to more guns/equipment/perks. IIRC, claymores unlock at like level 21. 23 maybe... somewhere in that range.

Ironically that 3 shot burst rifle (m16) is generally thought of as the most over-powerful gun in the game. The iron sights for it aren't great, but it's a really accurate, powerful gun. If you keep using it, you'll get used to it, probably love it and unlock a red dot sight. But if you can't dig it, soon enough you'll unlock the m4 and ak and you should already have the mp5. My two cents would be to NOT check out mw2 for awhile. If cod4 is fun and new for you, enjoy it alone, as it's a much better game. Congrats on the purchase.

you havent been to the club in a while...

that topic was just unnecessary, I should have stopped way before page 7.

Thanks havoc, truth be told I try to stay even keeled but I get fired up a bit easily.

Ok, played it a bit now and hit level 32 pretty quickly. I still can't see how the m16 is viable - against anybody worth a you're dead long before that 1st burst is done and you can get off a second. I even went back to try it with the double tap and it still didn't work for me. I'm m4 with either stopping power or double tap all the way for quickness and fast kills. Another thing I noticed is that people completely disregard the claymores for setting traps and getting residual kills. I stagger 2 to catch people running blind around high traffic corners and get 4 to 6 kills a game usually just from that. Plus it's fun as to watch some poor bas run a corner, see you, then as they try to aim they trip the 1st mine and go boom.
