I don't have a problem with snipers. The gun is designed for 'campers' and that's what they do...look for long range kills. In Halo games, the sniper is sought after every game, same in CoD. The 1887's, however, would be OK if they had normal shotgun range, but getting blasted from halfway across the map is bullshit.

Exactly. I expect them to be powerful. I don't expect them to have better power at further ranges than assault rifles.

I'm 15K away from prestige and I have to say, the game is finally running it's course for me. A few friends have already prestiged and are approaching level 50 (they plan to stop at 70).

I really can't see myself doing prestige after just opening all the cool stuff, this early.

I finished all of the Special Ops on Veteran other than the two that require two players. Anyone want to do those with me?

I ran into this, too. Played about 6 or 7 rounds with the two cheaters, trying to find their secret spots. I found them in Terminal, Rundown, Karachi, Afghan, and Wasteland. Sad thing is... they're horrible players. I'm talking worse than me, and they're both Prestige, and at levels in the high 50's. I reported them to MS, but I don't think MS can do anything on their end.

Infinity Ward needs to find a fix to this cheat, because it's worse than the javelin glitch, IMO. I'm all for removing Tactical Insertion entirely. It's a stupid perk.

I love using the Tac Insert when playing Domination. When guarding a flag, I drop the tac insert behind it somewhere, and when I get killed defending, I pop right back in and blow them away. Repeat.

Sadly, if they two players are on separate teams, there's no way to stop punks like that.

What is the Tac cheat? Is it just two idiots respawning next to each other & killing each other?

yup. I came across that a few times in FFA. In one game it eventually became everyone else against the two of them. It's just all kinds of lame!

I don't see how you can fix that cheat other than limit the insertion timing to maybe 5 respawns. Otherwise take it out.

A good solution would be if you kill the same player five times in under 30 seconds, you both get booted. Sure, on a rare occasion one or two people may be kicked on pure coincidence, but most often than not it would uproot the cheaters. To prevent accidental kicks of people who just happen to kill the same player that many times, you could limit the booting to players who have that perk enabled.

Good stuff:

Good video and uh.....I feel really stupid asking this but how do you drop your riot shield?

Swap with another gun on the ground.

Got put into one of those neverending glitch rounds on Rust. Domination. I was getting killed left and right while respawning, so I just quit out.

Waiting for the patch...

Agreed. If you find yourself being killed by them, stop running around like an idiot.

Yeah cause that's what we're all doing...

That was a cool vid. I've always wondered why you can survive that large fall in Afghan.

This game is such a buggy piece of shit now. I tried to play Domination again tonight, and it kept going into the Rust map for the neverending games.

On one regular map, there was a member of the other team that could not be killed, but he could not kill us either. He was just running around with two 1887's, slashing and shooting away, but it was like he was a ghost. We had a knife war as he came around the corner, and eventually he just ran away because he couldn't kill me and I couldn't kill him. First time I'd seen that.

I've also noticed an increase in nukes being dropped. A big time increase.

So this wasn't just me. Funny to see FFA game turn into 30+ players (so many people they were respawning on top of one another) and running up 2000+ scoring totals. I just pulled out my 1887's put on sleight of hand and went with it for a few games. Domination was mixed in there for one match. The most annoying aspect was that the team members showed up as red (enemy) in name and radar. Got in half a dozen games and dumped it. Too frenetic.

That explains why the FFA last night was messed up. Guess I'll jump in again once it's fixed.

I was nuked in back to back games.... what are the chances of that considering I dropped out of the group of guys I was playing with from the first game since they were obviously using the tac cheat?

Good thing this stuff is only on the XBox.

I'll echo all this. The amount of Predators, etc. killing everyone from the sky is just getting too annoying--please either WAY up the kill streaks or do away with most of this junk. It's just not fun when half the time you're just getting blasted from above. My guess is it's mostly through cheaters, but even if it's not it takes a lot of the fun out of the game.
