Poll: Should Modern Warfare 2 include the Martyrdom perk?

[TimeLord]

is there really any point of COD 4 teabaggin? =P

No, personally, I dont see tbagers alot in cod4 or the ps3 in general, its an xbox thing (mainly Halo cause you get an achievement for it if im correct)

 

[Dogstile]

Dunno about you guys, but I usually HEAR it drop long before I see it.

Keep it. If you're too thick to figure out how to listen or watch for indications, then you need to go back to Halo

hahaha! haha! haaaa!

oh, god, that was great, i needed a laugh, thank you

on topic:it should be taken off for hardcore i think, you can barely hear the thing when there's so many grenades being thrown anyway

 

[cowbell40]

I sure hope not, but to be fair, once you get good at the game it's pretty easy to avoid them. I just think its a ridiculous concept to begin with,

Trust me, it happens on PS3

 

[bcrow136]

I think in general it's alright to have, but maybe it should be left out of hardcore games, where you're more likely to melee someone and there's no grenade indicator.

 

[lightbeats]

Has this what it's been reduced to, simply an anti teabagging perk, which oh so happens to kill people who arn't paranoid campers afraid to go near corpses.

 

[DownOnTheUpside]

No. Martyrdom perk should be taken out.

The actual "noobs" are the people who use this perk. They can't kill someone so of course they pick the easy kill perk. Magically dropping a grenade after you die... right. It's actually unrealistic... very unrealistic.

But Marty just seems like an aid to bad players. People who have to die to get a kill. It's a neat idea, but since damn near everyone uses it, I'd say that it should be scrapped, as it just serves to give kills to people who have died.

And I agree with this.

PC Servers run by decent groups.

Stick Hardcore mode on, restrict the usage of whatever you want, and then the players decide which ones they favour.

Doesn't help console owners, but it shows the one area that they've yet to master: Choice.

no i meant specifically as its just the person doing it who knows... i mean you jump straight to killcam (if not playng hc)

True, the only people who see you tbaging (in HC at least where there is a respawn delay) are other dead people spectating. So yea its rather pointless

While I personally like the perk, having it removed would ensure that I would never again hear a whiny 10 year old complain about MARTYdom.
I mean honestly how hard is it to pronounce the damn word correctly?

Couldnt be bothered to read to the end of the thread when I saw this.

I AGREE COMPLETLEY!! I dont get how (and i dont mean to have a piss at americans) they can get the pronunciation of the word wrong when its just martyr with a changed end, it can be really annoying some time.

On Topic though:
I say keep it, i used to care when I was rubbish and took the game seriously but now I laugh when I get killed by it as I usually hear it drop, sprint past it and then jump as it explodes so my characters body flies across the screen, it cracks me up!

I used to have a gripe with people using juggernaut as I think its a broken perk but since I started playing hardcore matches I dont care because it doesnt work on there! now I just laugh when I see the red cross as i think "What a dick to think it really makes a difference in hardcore mode!" and not in a harsh way either, i'm usually laughing my arse off as I play cod4 (its so much more fun when you're not really serious about it)

 

[Simalacrum]

Martydom can get annoying, but its also useful... and therefore annoying to other players.

so yes it should be abolished

 

[Optimus Hagrid]

Personally, I think CoD4 would make a much more interesting game with Martydom, Last Stand, Juggernaut or Stopping Power removed. I'm surprised they didn't just try it over a weekend.

 

[Firegrip]

I liked the "toss back" perk for marty users. reseting the timer on the grenade is awesome and you can usually get a kill out of it. But if we start taking out all the perks and guns people consider to be unfair, You might as well just make a paintball game.

 

[DoctorWhat]

It should be included, but unavailable on hardcore...

How many times have you been standing next to your buddy, then the next thing you know, he's down, and there's an explosion at your feet? Too many, that's how many...

Im liking that idea

 

[Jonny49]

Meh, just run away from it.

 

[wgreer25]

People need to quit thier bitchin'

Marty Death is EASY to aviod. You just assume everyone has it. If you are upset by it, it is your own damn fault that you died from it. Yes it kills me, and when it does I don't curse the game, I curse myself.

Having said that it is an unbalanced perk from the aspect that you essetially get an extra grenade (more like half a grenade since you can't really use it or aim it), but... that is all it does. Other perks unbalance things as well.

 

[Spygon]

what really needs to be left out is triple grenades and grenade launchers.Dont worry martyrdom i have no beef with you.
