COD:MW2 - Barebones

Anyone still playing this game?

I got frustrated w/ BFBC2 a few nights ago, so I popped in my ol' dusty MW2 disc. Tried out the new barebones game mode, and I must say it has really renewed my interest in the game. It's nice to be able to spawn and not get insta-killed by a harrier or C130.

Eliminating the killstreak rewards stopped the nuke hunting, and I've noticed very few campers in the several games I played. I've also noticed a lot more teamwork, people actually try to acheive objectives instead of running around worried about K/D as much.

Of course, the commando perk, HBS, and noob tube are still an annoyance, but it's actually a tolerable game again.

MW2 is still a piece of poo. I only continue to play it because it remains the flavor of the month. Stupid poo like that video points out happens all the time. Infinity Ward created all this unnecessary stuff, went ridiculously overboard with it, skipped having a beta for it, and then let chaos ensue. Then even after tons of people complained (and still are) about blatant faults in the game, they don't even listen, but still manage time to make two more map packs.

The only thing that Barebones suggests to me, being that more people seem to like it, is that IW knows that the killstreaks in this game are retarded, and they shouldn't have made them so overpowered to begin with.

...I think it's pretty apparent I am looking/waiting for a new game, I could go on for days about this fuging game.

I don't find BFBC II all that fun to play, that's just me though

No, I'm with you. I bought BFBC II to replace MW2 and I liked it for about 3 weeks. There is just nothing particularly special about it. I got bored with it pretty quickly. And their downloadable content is a joke.

Bad Company is fun if you can find people to play with. Most people don't wear headsets when they play, which makes cooperation impossible; and cooperation is the whole point of BFBCII.

I also agree I've become pretty burned out on the BC maps. They definitely need more variety.

That being said, I generally get a lot less frustrated and enjoy playing alot more on Bad Company.

This. I bought it and had a great time with it for about 3 weeks and then it was boring. All the BF people complain about MW2 and how we pay for map packs that have old maps and all this crap but they bought a game that has 2 game types with 4 maps. I can only play the same game type on those 4 maps so many times before i lose my mind. Their map pack was the same maps that weren't added to the game type to start with. How is that anything new? At least in MW2 i can play a different game type when i get bored with one.

I'm not saying you shouldn't like MW2, I just think BFBCII is a lot more fun. I guess it's the fact that you can drive tanks, choppers, HUMVEE's, etc. and blow the poo out of buildings that makes it more fun to me. Not to mention I felt the classes were much more distinct and made team work more relevant. Also, the glitching got a little out of hand. Then again, maybe they fixed that poo...I haven't played it in 3 or 4 months at least.

What game types does MW2 have again? I can't remember, and I'm too lazy put the disc in and find out.

Too many, some unnecessary; TDM, SnD, Domination, Demolition, Sabotage, CTF, Headquarters, All the hardcore modes, FFA, the list goes on.

And i'm pretty sure there is still some hacking, just not as much as before. I was positive some dude was wall hacking the other day.

    • Dan tends to attack one specific position group per offseason and the sprinkle others throughout the roster. He extended Moton, signed Hunt, Lewis, Nijman one offseason and then extended Brown and signed Wharton and Hunt and drafted Jackson next offseason. My guess is he attacks LB and Edge this offseason.    1. What do you do with Icky? Likely a scratch for next season and due a massive contract (if healthy) They will bring back Nijman and Christensen and draft a guy on Day 2 is my guess and hope one of them can fill the hole. 2. Coker has the talent for 2nd WR, but do you pay a guy who gets hurt that premium? I think hes your number 3 simply due to risk. Will the Panthers seek another vet or go surprisingly high in the draft? They will probably sign him more and longer than the RFA Tender to keep him happy and not break the bank in the process. Can see them getting a Vet in FA like Tutu Atwell or Hollywood Brown. Somebody with speed but also isn’t overly expensive. I think Horn and Tremayne stick around and unfortunately Legette. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tremble released and a real TE in brought in, there is a good FA group this year. 3. Do you give X more feature time? Or cut bait now? I wouldn’t be surprised if they traded him but I’m willing to bet he gets one more year. Maybe Canales can find a role like Shenault had with McAdoo.  4. Planning the long term/short term on OL Like I said I think Christensen and Nijman are brought back for T with a Day 2 rookie and prayer something sticks. Moton, Hunt, Lewis return ofcourse. Probably resign Corbett as a safeguard at Center but I think they go C in the 1st or 2nd. Wouldn’t be shocked to see Morgan trade to the back end of the 1st to get a solid C and add picks. 5. How do you address LB? I think Rozeboom leaves. Hoping CJ Allen or Sonny Styles is still there is too big of a risk. They probably go get Kaden Elliss or Leo Chenal and pay good money for them. Maybe a guy on Day 3 for depth with Cherelus and Martin-Scott. Also think he takes a swing at Edge, wouldn’t be shocked to see Hendrickson or Oweh here.  6. Do you bank of Chuba bouncing back?    I think Chuba remains Chuba. There are some decent change of pace backs out there this year that will be cheap. Still developing Etienne and Brooks may be healthy. I think it’s Chuba and that crew maybe a veteran that’s not Dowdle. More like Deejay Dallas who was here already once.    I also think Dalton calls it and they get an upgrade at back up. Nobody that wouldn’t endanger Bryce’s job but somebody that isn’t 55 years old either.   
    • This is my answer. If I got board I would just do guest drop ins to obscure podcasts but would definitely collect the cash from Tepper.
