2. dont waste or money wait till black ops

[user858621]

LOL black ops haha gud 1

[murcielago4]

@DoctorXpro

yeah your right, noobs should wait for BO cause thats the only game where pussy ass noobs can actually feel like they are playing like a pro.

[Dnied]

3. Accept the fact that you may actually have to aim your weapon in this game.

[DARK WITNESS]

that should not be too hard, especially with such little recoil.

[Dnied]

It will be difficult for anybody who STARTED with mw2. How can you deny that? recoil or no recoil, cod had its issues because of the amount of ways they made it for casuals to take on pros using killstreak rewards and explosive weapons.

It also works the other way around.. I'm willing to bet if you were extremely good at mw1 or any old cod game for that matter, and you came to mw2 and struggled, MoH will feel pretty rewarding as it brings back a bit of that feeling of a legit, competative shooter.

btw, I'm not taking a stab at black ops, from what I've read from Treyarch they seem to have recognized the same thing most of us gamers have, and toned down the killstreaks etc. The only reason I won't buy that game is because of activision/kotick

[DARK WITNESS]

I don't really understand that...

How can a casual take on a Pro with kill streaks and explosive weapons.

if Cod is easy for noobs, it should be even easier for pros, if noobs can rack up 5 kills easy to get a kill steak then a pro should be able to rack 5 kills twice as fast if not faster. The "pro" has access to all the same killstreaks and weapons that the noob can use. what real advantage does the noob have - none.

the only advantage is a self placed one because the so called "pros" are too high and mighty to want to use the kill streaks or explosive weapons.

for example, I hate, and i mean HATE, noob tubing.... I can take the odd noob throwing one at me sure. Once in a while though you come across a whole team of noobs and they all run around packing noobtubes. When that happens I tell you i have no shame, I will pull out my own noob tube and so will the rest of my team. A team of pros with noob tubes against a team of noobs with noob tubes, who do you think gets the AC130 in the air first ? who do you think ends up crying about all the noob tubing ? give you a hint, it's not us.

I agree MW2 is very, Very, VERY noob friendly, yes... which is why I enjoy it the more. 99% I don't need no noob tactics to own them but it sure is fun making them cry.

[bviperz]

I think CoD perks just lessens the gap between pro and newb. Both can now pwn at any given time on any given map. 2 or more newbs with perks can beat a pro with perks. Take the perks away and it's a different story. See BFBC2 or MoH.

[Dnied]

Its a bit like poker.

Pros can lose some hands by complete noobs because somebody just starting out really has no experience and dont have all the same "habits" that a pro poker play would have.

They become very unpredictable often in their favor. That's not to say mw2 IS predictable, but shooters in general sort of have these core "habits" that make any pro good like checking corners for example. Oh and by the way, I never had a problem with campers, it was just the new ways to kill people that bothers me.

When I played counterstrike it was a similar game, but completely opposite to mw2. I studied replays by top teams because of their talent and "smarts" and learned from them. In mw2 if you're watching the killcam there is almost no skill involved with explosive weapons because you just have to aim in the general direction of the enemy and the splash damage is more than enough to take him out in 1 shot. Even when players do "shoot" to get kills, more often than not the crosshair is all OVER the place. Basically a "spray n pray" type thing. I'm talking 1.6 CS btw, not source.

Yes, pros can do the same things as well, but they don't. Not because they cant, but because they don't want to, it just doesnt feel rewarding to them... its tough to explain really unless you've played some hardcore team-oriented shooters.

I defend this because mw2 was a serious letdown. in Mw1 you had a very small amount of this.. I held a top 200 world ranking until I stopped playing about 1 year in. I played mw2 and I did absolutely terrible to my standards but there was nothing I could do to prevent it unless I wanted to be "one of them" and start abusing the stacked killstreaks and noob tube spamming. Ultimately, my point is, is that MoH brings some of that back when I'm playing. I'm back to "pwning noobs" status when for a long time I had convinced myself I just wasn't good at shooters anymore.. MoH isn't exactly a perfect game, but its new and challenging and will keep me busy until something else comes along that is nothing like mw2.

[awiseman]

it has no recoil

[fossilfern]

i got MOH today played about an hour online, loving it :D sick of hearing all the hate

[lefty burns]

couldn't agree more I'm having a lot of fun with this game for now!

[DelbertGrady]

I once managed to rack up 58 kills with 0 deaths in a round of BF BC 2, playing rush mode on the desert level. Haven't tried the mp in MOH yet but I'm curious to see what the biggest differences from BF BC 2 are. Played a bit of sp yesterday and it was really good. Above my expectations.

[Dave1351]

moh is exactly like bc2 except less vehicles and it has more game modes, and killstreaks

[Ares84PS3]

MoH isn't like it. It's want to be it...but it just isn.t

[Dnied]

MOH is a bit of a hybrid between bc2 and cod (mw1)

It has the same feel / atmosphere as bc2 but has the maps and pace of an arcade shooter like cod.

Oh and killstreaks (point streaks) arent mass amounts of automatic / free kills in this game and you probably even get more rewarded doing defensive abilities instead of the offensive ones.

You'll see what I mean when you play it lol definately worth it though... its nice to have a shooter again that relies on individual skill and the use bullets.

[crazyclown]

my brother bought it, i thought it sucked...but its awesome

MP is great (requires skill unlike COD) --> went straight to it; changed drastically from beta

[BloodyNapkin]

Requires skill you say, please. MOH is way easier than COD, actually this probably has to be the easiest game i have ever played far as multiplayer online. I just played 3 games and didn't even die a single time in all 3 games and averaging 35+ kills a game. And you know it is easy when you can kill people all the way across the map with P90, bullets should spread more at farther distances but it doesn't.

[ExitToExisT]

Everyone is noob. Game came out 2-3 days ago.

[Garnett]

This game is a noob version of Bad Company 2, no recoil, small maps and its still trying to be call of duty.

DICE, When you make BF3, put 64 player battle, vehicles, huge maps and server browsing.
