I was watching this video yesterday(
)
its a great commentary video on the 10 biggest problems in Modern Warfare 2,also today i got 8th prestige WOOPY ;D.
Some of them are probs and I agree with some of them. But...
1 ~ Overpowered Killstreaks
I think the Chopper Gunner is a tad overpowered, and the AC130 is underpowered. Anyone who has used both will know that you can't get as many kills with an AC130 as you can a Chopper Gunner.
I also think the Harrier Strike is also stupidly overpowered. An Attack Helicopter (7 kills to get as well) can't do anything.... most of the time it can't even get kills. Harrier on the other hand I've seen it get 15+ kills, plus it's also a Precision Air Strike, plus it can shot down any other helicopters in the air.
Also the Stealth Bomber doesn't have a wide enough damage range, that and I've seen someone RIGHT under a bombing run (as in nothing over their head) and it not kill them.
And as for that person in the vid (and to anyone out there that has the same reasoning as him).... you're a retard if you think it's a prob to pull out a Stinger and shoot it down. I don't know why, but for some reason everyone on the game has the mindset of "I don't want to shoot that down" or "Someone else will shoot it down". If there's air support up there (other then a UAV, very rarely I shoot them down) I shoot it down when I die.
I agree that killstreaks does need some work.
2 ~ Tac Inserts
On paper it's a good idea, and in some game types (CtF, Domination, etc) it works really well (I've used it). But, there should be a limit on how many you can put down, or something. Because I've been in FFA games before where it's just booster after booster after booster. I've been in countless games where it had 3 or more sets of boosters, I'd kill them and they'd leave the game, and then a sec later the 2 spots is filled with more boosters, and then they leave, and so on. Something does need to be done about this.
5 ~ Spawns
The guy in the vid says "as long as I can remember" must not have been a right off the bat CoD4 player (such as yours truely). If you played CoD4 TD before WaW came out, you would have known that the crappy spawns came after WaW. CoD4 had damn good spawns, you might have had to ran a little, but at least it didn't spawn someone RIGHT behind you (on MW2 I've had someone spawn looking at me, and they were like a foot away from me). And then WaW rolled around and for some reason IW said "Hey..... that looks fun, lets screw over people by spawning enemies behind someone". It needs to be fixed where it had CoD4 spawns pre-WaW.
6 ~ Overpowered guns
Can't agree with that. I know where he's coming from... he's a Core player on CoD4 and WaW. I started playing MW2 and right off the bat I was like "Wait... that was easy". I only played only Hardcore on CoD4 and WaW. But now on MW2 I find myself playing more Core then I do Hardcore. Because it's now easier to kill then it was on CoD4 or WaW. It's bad for Core players, good for Hardcore players.
7 ~ Snipers should kill
I couldn't agree more. I find it stupid to shoot someone with a Barrett.... the most powerful sniper in the world.... sniper that can cut someone in half over a mile away. And then on MW1 it not kill them from point blank range. With the WA2000 I've hit someone in the head twice (they were sniping and all you could see was their head) and it not kill them. That is just flat out stupid.
8 ~ Last/Final Stand
I totally agree with this. WaW really screwed the system over by being able to revive someone. Final Stand isn't as bad, but it shouldn't be there. It's stupid that I put someone down, they're behind cover so I have to run halfway across the map to get them, only to be shot, and then they get up or my kill taken. I can't stand that, that perk should have been done away with.
10 ~ Commando
Commando is really WTFness. I've used it because it's soooooo easy to get kills. Use it on FFA and you could use that and be able to win most of the time. Commando is their "way" of fixing knives. They shouldn't have made Commando, they should have fixed their damn knife system. I'm stick of people not even moving and my knife not register. And then you have Commando where you're shooting at someone and they knife you from 500 feet away, it's stupid.
A lot of their ideas were nice on paper, but in game it's dumb. They should have had an open beta, with all these perks and such. It would have weeded out a lot of junk in the game. But noooo IW is too good to have a beta, they can get more data off their closed beta then they can from an open one. Yea, real good IW.... <<
