Top 10 Annoying Things about Modern Warfare 2

[Rush]

Dual Guns- Dual guns are usually really annoying when abused. Some guys shoot fast enough already, when you double them, it’s a recipe for disaster. Show me a real soldier who can shoot at least half of these dual weapons at the same time, and I’ll be surprised. Dual 1887 Akimbos are the real culprit here.

Campers- Campers are something that we run into in all shooters, especially online. It may be hard to fathom but some online players may sit in the same exact spot for 5 minutes just waiting for somebody to come by so they can get an easy kill. Playing in big maps, campers are more predominant. Instead of venturing out and seeking the opposition, they hide in a corner and just…well…wait.

Noob Tubers- Takes little to no skill to use the “Noob Tube”. Noobs generally have no skill at the game already, so the only remedy for this is to use the Noob Tube. This is a grenade launcher attachment that when abused becomes known as the noob tube. Used in small maps, this can really get on one’s nerves. Coupling the noob tube with camping, can serve to irritate.

Matchmaking (Peer-to-Peer)- The most popular online game shouldn’t use peer-to-peer matchmaking. Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 needs to be hosted on dedicated servers. It sucks when you have a full room and the game starts up only for everybody to be booted because they decide to use the guy using Wal-Mart’s online connection to host the entire match. MW2 needs to be on dedicated servers please and thank you.

Teammates without a mic – Usually it’s fun to play with people who have mics. Whenever you have 5 guys on your team, all of whom are familiar with each other, and that one guy who doesn’t have a mic, it sucks. Being able to alert your teammate of that guy around the corner that just killed you is a good option to have or to receive that alert. You almost have to yell “DON’T GO IN THERE DUDE”. So they can hear you from their TV speakers. Once they go around the corner and get knifed I want to drop my knees and yell “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO”.

Teammates who don’t know what they’re doing- This is one of the more prevalent issues in online gaming. Having teammates who have no idea what they are doing. When you’re in a close match against the other team, you have done everything you can to help your team win. 20 kills and 3 deaths, and then you have that one player on your team who goes 0-15 who causes your team to lose. That guy….is the guy who pisses everybody off. It always sucks to have this happen. This is why it’s a good idea to play with people you know….who don’t go 0-15.

Dying before a killstreak- As a below-average/mediocre player this is the one that aggravates me the most. My best killstreak is 13 I think, so I haven’t been able to experience the finer joys of frequent killstreaks. Anywho, regardless of how good or bad you are, you will HATE dying right before you get a killstreak. I hate dying right before a harrier, I couldn’t imagine how somebody feels when they die 1 kill away from getting the nuke.

Trash Talkers in the lobby- Another aspect of online gaming is trash talking, some is friendly or funny, and some is downright annoying. Being called every name in the book by the 12 year old kid in the lobby is far from entertaining. It’s funny the first couple of times to encounter idiocy in it’s truest form, but the 40th time, it’s annoying. More then often the person talking trash is the worst person on the other team.

Dying as you spawn- Online shooters encounter this problem a lot especially in MW2. Many people hate as soon as they spawn, they are instantly killed. I can’t tell you how many times this has happened to me. I have been killed before I’ve taken 3 steps from where I have spawned. Spawning in a firefight, or where a chopper gunner is unloading on your team, usually tends to piss me off.

Nuke Boosters- Getting the nuke has to be a great feeling. To have the many kills without dying. Some people won’t ever know how it feels so they must glitch to get it. They have a friend be on the other team and let them kill them 25 times so they can do the nuke to get a “nuke emblem”. This is pretty sad that somebody will go through all of that trouble to get an online gaming “emblem”. Oh well. A great “joy” in this is seeing the guy get 23 kills off his friend and then you killing him just short of his glitching goa

I wrote this around the time the first game came out on another site. Thoughts? What do you hate the most?

Campers and Noob Tubers pissed me off so much it made me start using the noob tube to get back at them. lol

dying as you spawn and dying before a killstreak

the nuke boosters....hate them.

story: yesterday i was playing free for all and these two little kids were nuke boosting, and i know they were little kids because they had mic's and sounded like they have yet to go through puberty. you know, the typical little *****. anyways the map was Highrise and you knew they were nuke boosting because they kept talking about where they were going to meet in the map on previous maps, except on Highrise they turned their mics off. well the one kid had 24 kills and just as i turned a corner, there they both were underneath the stairs sitting on boxes in the basement part. the 24-kill kid killed the other kid, the one i shot at, and got the nuke 1 second before i killed him. i was almost the guy on the Gamefly commercials that throws the TV out a window after that happened.

Definitely campers, I hate them

 

[Kush77]

Akimbo shotguns by far. Waaaaay to accurate.

People that sit in the dark corner of the store on Skidrow. Also people that prone on the stairs on Skidrow.

I hate the damn noob tube as well. But I'll use the Thumper on Estate, don't use the attachment.

campers, dual machine guns(the hand guns and shotguns don't bother me when using dual) and the teammate who has no idea what he is doing, then stands in the doorway searching the area and blocking your path to get through. Then because of the dickhead you die.

 

[BullsFan_1]

None of those things really bother me all that much...campers are pretty easy to combat if it's just one or two on the other team. People always make the mistake of going back for the revenge kill the exact same route that they took before and suffer the same fate.

Akimbo shottys are pretty annoying, but I love the Dual G18's...such a fun weapon.

Actually, I take what I said back...I do get really pissed at the noob tubers. Especially the **** that sit back with one man army + danger close.

 

[beardown28]

I hate something you didn't mention. Super soldiers. The people who put marathon, lightweight, that damn pill, the akimbo guns or the tactical knife and they just run around and stab people. That isn't realistic. But then again neither is the heart beat sensor.

 

[M4ST3R CH13F]

Completely disagree with the part about switching to dedicated servers...the problem isn't with matchmaking itself (see Halo) but with how they pick host.

Dedicated servers have pretty much made every Battlefield game ever made unplayable for me...

It has to be death streaks. I mean, if a player sucks then let them suck. I cant stand getting killed by final stand, Martydome(sp) or not killing kids with shotguns to the face because they have pain pill.

I also hate tubers but after 2-3 tube deaths, i send them right back except im better at it.

I usually cant stand 98% of players who arent in my partys. Especially foreigners, little kids and southerners. I hate when i play HC HQ and people call me and my team campers but we just won 200-0.

I hate kids with mods, j-tags and getting random messages about 10th prestige lobbies.
