Just Bugs Me

[Theyleon]

Also, knifing is fsck and snipers are useless.

Biggest pet hate about this game was the fact snipers just aren't worth taking. The so called big levels are way to small for some decent sniper action. Hell I'm one for close combat sniping its all I did in COD4 but this is just ridiculous.

Also wtf is with he spawn points? I really wish they would get off their assess and think about spawn points.

They've said the spawn points are bugged, should be fixed in the patch this week.

The fact every time I unlock Ghost Pro, I then buy it, and a few minutes later it returns back to normal Ghost and says I haven't completed the challenges.

I dunno, flak jacket/hacker makes them pretty useless except as a warning device.

True, but in previous COD's you didn't need Sitrep to evade them. You would see it and quickly back off which usually resulted in you avoiding death. In this game every time I run into a claymore it's like a 3-4 meter blast radius. Way too big.

double edged sword really, claymores at the moment force you to use Hacker pretty much. if they nerf claymores though Hacker becomes useless/less favorable. gives a bit of class variety i guess, but i have seen an increase of people choosing Hacker lately, myself included - and haven't had a problem with gaymores since.

I find flak jacket to work just fine against claymores, certainly in S and D it's a god send for both clays and start of round nades.

i only use flak jacket against claymores, this is mainly due to the fact that i have to use tactical mask pro, because i absolutely hate stuns and flashes, and they seemed to get spammed

I think I have to try to use Hacker a bit more then. Cheers Acheron

I recently prestiged so all my classes reset. Now when I try to buy a new gun and customize a class it won't let me. It will just go back to its original class. Somehow I managed to get the Enfield into a class a while back. Really,really annoying

The problem is, you have to kill enemy's who are damaged by nova gas. If the gas kills them it dosent count towards the challenge. Really retarded....

This should make it easier not harder though. Jump in a game mode with objectives to cap, like HQ, bung a Nova can onto the point and charge in like Rambo. The gas takes a while to kill someone but buzzes them out enough it shouldn't be too hard to pop them.

Been so long since I have played CoD4 but I am pretty sure back then you got 2 claymores and bomb squad was the only perk to help you deal with them.

I think people need to harden up a bit, next the c4 will be too overpowered.

Hacker will do away with pesky claymores, or throw on the flak jacket and run past them smiling but seriously if they give you anymore ways to dodge claymores they may as well remove them from the game.

BF2 claymores were always instant death and no one ever asked for those to be nerfed.

Ghost pro challenges weren't that hard, just play on a normal server (non HC) and throw flash/concussion/gas at the first encounter each time you spawn and you will get each one in a few maps or so.

As for destroying a sentry gun, select sentry gun in your killstreaks and throw it to the enemy and then just wait.

Lightweight pro, Flak Jacket pro, Marathon pro and ninja pro I won't bother with as they require objective based awards and I don't play those game types.

I find the biggest issue is when playing HC friendly tags either don't show up early enough if at all.

Friendly tags can be blocked by a blade of grass hindering your view or a team mate emerge right in front of you from around a corner, which generally ends up with one of you filled with lead because their tag won't appear until they are in direct line of sight.

But for some reason you can see the tag of another friendly camping in an upstairs room or something across the map.

Makes for very frustrating gameplay especially if people are new to HC.

This is because you bought an emblem and/or clan tag for the gun last prestige - for some stupid reason it auto-buys it when you buy the gun next prestige, but doesn't say anywhere, and only checks the money to buy it when you try to save the class. So make sure you have 2000 points spare after buying the gun, and it should work.

Really? I thought clan tags and emblems stayed purchased. In fact I just bought clan tags and emblems for every gun because I thought that was the case. >_<

/me goes to check.

Another thing is, at least on my reso of 1680*1050, the scoreboard is exactly big enough to display 18/19 names, meaning you have to scroll down to see the last one. It's not like there isn't room for another name, the scoreboard just won't scale to that height. Stupid.

EDIT: Well I just bought a new gun and it only cost 2k. Though it could still be a bug where it requires you to have 4k and only uses 2 of them.

[D-.]

Bullets doing damage (in HC) through 6 different walls from the other side of the map.

Team mates that see you firing and still run in front of you and then tear you a new one when they die from ff.

Limited weapon classes.

Last stand (or second chance as it's now known).

[Rega]

Thanks for the tips guys. I'll keep trying but it really annoyed me so I went back to BC2

[Zyklon]

My major annoyance is Nuketown.

Oh god how I hate that level.

And I hate the fact that when i WANT people to take my crates (for hardline pro) they never take them, but when I want them.. they always get stolen. /rage

Other than that my only other hate is the server browser

[Helelix]

The emblem editor. Although its awesome and a step above the rest, its still limited. Like you cant stretch shapes... And no transparency colour... And there could be a few more basic shapes like trapeziums, parallelograms and more curves/crescents...

Really? I thought clan tags and emblems stayed purchased. In fact I just bought clan tags and emblems for every gun because I thought that was the case. >_<

Yer they do. At the end of a prestege I ALWAYS use up all of my spare cod points on things that stay unlocked. Like clan tag and Emblems for all guns, everything in the emblem editor and red dot sight customisations (look and colour, not the background colour)

[unkillable2]

Oh and then Nuketown. It is now my #1 major complaint to not only the CoD community, but (I can't believe I'm saying this) dedicated servers! Seriously, at least with matchmaking, I was assured it would be on a rotation, so even if I didn't like the map, I knew the next map would be something different. "But MPFive my miserable chum" you say "There's other servers that AREN'T 24/7 Nuketown" Yea, either empty or full. I usually see 10 full or near full Nuketown servers and 2 servers with rotations that are full. The rest are all bloody empty! I ain't sitting on a server waiting to play a game. *sigh* But I guess it is what you make of it.

Team Revolt server runs is running allmaps and rotating between DOM and TDM. Always full and has been for 1 month heavy active. WE will have a 2nd server up on friday 17th running the same setup to number 1 unless we need it to have a scrim on. We have reserve passwords setup so team revolt members and friends can get in easy.

I cant stand the same map over and over again it just ain't karkand from bf2 so avoid those 24-7 nuketown servers
