The game is broken... people on gamechat even brag about using the glitch Matrimony Cauthon Send a noteboard - 07/02/2010 08:46:13 AM
It pisses me off to no end how much these care packages have destroyed the game. If you play decimation, you might notice that it is particularly bad. I will often get killed 50-60 times in a match because there are so many sentry guns, predators, harriers, chopper gunners, and more. It is out of control. It takes a huge toll to get near the bombsite with that much fire power going on.

It is even more annoying that this is common knowledge, and people don't even try to hide the fact that they glitching. They brag about it in the lobby.


I have been getting more and more frustrated lately with Modern Warfare 2 and just stopped playing a week ago. Why have I become frustrated? Because I have realized the game is much more broken than I thought on release and some of the major issues have still not been addressed, even though other (and I would consider more minor) things have been.

Just like the game became annoying during the Javelin glitch craze, it has become annoying again with the care package glitching. Both of them, the running and the infinite drops. The entire week before I stopped playing, I made a note in each game about the drops. How many CP and how many Emergency drops there were. I did not play one legit game that entire week. And it wasn't just one type I was playing...this was on every game type (except cage match). One dude went a little over board and called in 15 airdrops in one minute. Something else that is annoying about this glitch, IW said they fixed it when they fixed the JAvelin glitch.


Aside from all the glitching, another major problem I am having in this game is latency issues. This game has horrible latency. The difference between 4 bars (max) and 3 bars is ASTOUNDING...and if you have 2 bars it is nearly unplayable. One bar IS unplayable. The extremely few times I have 4 bars, I dominate matches, but more importantly (to me anyways), is that the Kill Cam actually matches up to what I saw on my screen. With 4 bars, if I am shot when going around the corner, I have part of my body sticking out from the wall on my screen. With 3 bars, I am half way down the wall and have been for a second, but the Kill Cam shows me not around the corner yet. I can not play with this latency.

And you are probably thinking, "Dude, your connection sucks." I tell you that No, it doesn't suck. I generally have a >10 Meg Download and a 1.5 Meg upload. I can pop in the first Modern Warfare and get 4 bars nearly all the time. I can play Halo with max signal. I can play Gears 2 with Max signal. But I can't get more than 3 bars on MW2.

Anyways, there is a new patch coming for the 360, but Microsoft didn't approve it because it didn't fix enough. IW has to add more to the patch for Microsoft to approve it.

If I wasn't going to play mutliplayer all the time, I wouldn't have bought it. - 05/02/2010 05:46:35 PM 606 Views
Oh okay that's good to know - 06/02/2010 11:16:52 AM 588 Views
Yeah, sadly, bandwidth and latency are completely different measurements. - 05/02/2010 03:35:00 PM 641 Views

Excuse my naivety, but what is the emergency drop glitch? - 05/02/2010 09:45:39 PM 589 Views
I am sure I will return to it sooner or later. - 06/02/2010 12:06:02 AM 617 Views
