"No! Don't get the flag!" But, that's the objective, "NOOOOO!"

[Mr. Google]

your playing MW2, what do you expect?
This happens in about any game with achievements or the like, although I haven't noticed it in BC2 yet...

Thats because DICE was smart enough to not include any specific multiplayer achievements.
Only things like "blow up 1000 walls" and "kill 5 people with every pistol" and a few more for ranking up and getting ribbons.

Although lots of people seem to like sniping on offence on Rush.



You can't win the game if you sit on your asses sniping all the time

I see what ur saying but u do need snipers even on offense to pick off those snipers on defense but it is really annoying when you have a team of 12 with 8 snipers

 

[Pigeon_Grenade]

this is why i play Coop modes now, instead of Competitive modes, and why i stoped at World at war for Cods, that and killing Zombies is fun

I know. I don't mind having 2 or 3 snipers on offence, but when most of the damn team are snipers? Yeah, that pisses me off.

once again, this is a reason I liked WAW better than MW2. played it earlier today and had fun defending and advancing on the HQ's. no one said "DONT GIT TEH HQ LOL!!!111 ******!!!111ONEONEONE". we just had fun fighting each other for a few minuets, then went on our way. from what I can tell, this mainly comes from popular games, which WAW was for about a month. but I still love you World at War, no matter your crappy campaign.

Yeah and this is why i liked Call of duty 4 because it was the one who actually made those awesome game types ur talking about not that shitty developer trey arch (Dont get me wrong though MW2 is FUBAR but if ur just comparing 4 and 5 4 is way better)

 

[Not G. Ivingname]

Trust me... you won't believe how long nobody will make any effort to get the flag in some Tf2 2fort servers.

 

[Darmort]

Eh. A handful of gamers whine at you every game for winning. Big deal. It's not as if they've actually got a reason why you shouldn't, such as the base camper looking over the bombsite or whatever.



I play Team Fortress 2. With Team Fortress 2, objective based gameplay doesn't work with less than about four people per side (four if they're not playing Sniper, Enginer or Spy, unless they're damned good at competitive play). Anything less than that and one team will generally take an upper hand and then keep it all game long. I've seen it happen several times when me and my friends go to play by ourselves.

Yeah. In the end we just turn them into killhouses, sky being the limit. Once there's so many people on the server we start dicing up some objectives.

Or just play Arena, provided we can find a server that doesn't lag.

 

[Rewdalf]

Lets go back a few years.
Counter Strike.
Rescue hostages? HAH!
Plant the bomb? HAH HAH!
Kill everyone so you can have a few extra bucks next round!
Good thing my team's server is going back up so we can FORCE people the play the game the way they're SUPPOSED to...

It makes sense to have more Snipers on defence since it wastes the enemy's tickets, but on Offensive? Really? How about having some Engineers to blow apart the building the objective is in? Or some Medics to get back tickets? Or Assult to actually kill people while being able to get the objective? Support only works when it does not out number the amount of actual fighting people.

Sometimes you see some cool support people on offence. The ones using shotguns/Tompsons/Garands/G3/ect and tossing motion trackers and calling mortar strikes to help the assault.

In those situations I wouldn't mind lots of support people. But sadly thats rarely what happens.

 

[DeleteThisPlease]

I love (LOVE) just playing by game type, not going for nukes or anything like that. Nothing pisses people off more, and no nube-tuber can infuriate people as well as this seems to.

Mind you, that's not my reason for playing by game type. I do that because I want to win and have a good time. A mic plus the mute button plus a silenceable headset= Total Win.

true, 4 was the better of the two, I just really, really liked WAW. it went back to the WWII formula for one last time, and it went out with on hell of a bang, only to then be overshadowed by the giant cardboard cutout that is MW2.

and I would suggest using spell check or something like that before someone is mean about it. us Escapist can get very elitist sometimes.

Yeah... at least all those Snipers learn their lesson from the UAV sending machine gun and harriers their way, it isn't nearly as bad as the Sniper happy matches I seen in Tf2 while playing on 2fort.

 

[Aura Guardian]

One time on The Conduit, I was playing Capture the Flag. I was getting the flag. My team camped my flag.
Needless to say, I'm not playing anymore CTF in any game again.

wait that game for Wii? people actually play that and online at that?

Another one. Yes. People do. It has an active community.

 

[ethaninja]

Heh, this is the reason I don't play online. Yeah thats happened to me plent of times. I remember one REALLY pathetic kid told me to stop killing him during a deathmatch... "Uh.. buddy? Maybe you should go back to Tonka trucks or Lego or something"

At least with CS, it was more fun to kill everyone then run around with 'dumb as a post' hostages But yeah, it pissed me off when people wouldn't do the objectives. Again, this is why I don't play online "

A little?

HA!

But seriously, he's right. We have a large grammar/spelling nazi population here.

 

[Tony2077]

this is one of the many reasons i boycott online gaming

single player FTW!

ditto

Agreed. I also think it has something to do with COD being the only game series to reward kill streaks with an in game boost that can create more kills.

 

[MortisLegio]

I hate when people do that to me

playing Domination on Terminal
I was playing as the Russians so I went to capture C. I hear "No you Idiot! dont do that!" as some one runs up to me
I ask "What are you talking about?" "Let them have C!" I heard in reply. I asked him (at least I think it was a him) why and all I get is "Dont be a retard you fucking idiot" and he ran off
confused I just took C anyway
Later I got a message that said something like "your an retarded idiot why did you capture C? you must be the dumbest fuckhead on the planet!"
I still dont get why he was mad, We won the match.

Because if in Domination when one team controles A and B or B and C they can trap the other team in the other flag they spawn in.

OT:I always play with atleast 3 friends so sometimes we will usualy rush plant a bomb in Demo then take our sweet time getting the other

Sorry... When I put "Russians so I went to capture C" I meant it as it was the start of the match

Though I admit I could have made that clearer
