Your Holy Sh*t Moment in Modern Warfare 2

[O277]

Got an 9 kill streak, called in Pave-Low, killed my friend, picked up his gun, and killed him again, ended up with a 15 kill streak.

I've also gotten an 18 kill streak, that was fun ^_^

The part where my bother picked up the xbox to move it while the game was running. Game over man.

The bit where they totally shit all over their PC consumer base.

Ho ho.

On skidrow, I (accidently) ran into about 5 snipers all camped up in one building. I shot down 3 with my first mag (I sprayed everywhere because of panic), Knifed the 4th. I was reloading when I noticed the 5th in a corner and I though "oh shit I'm dead." He didn't even notice that I had killed everyone else in the room. He let me reload, walk up, and knife him. So much tunnel vision.

Mine was using dual P90s in Skidrow and Terminal and actually doing pretty good, thanks to Lightweight.

I have not played MW2 yet. But Dual P90's ? Care to explain how that is possible to carry with both hands a 2 handed sub machine gun ?

Not only are P90s light enough to carry in either hand they're made to be ambidextrous. You don't need two hands to hold a P90, you just do if you want to actually hit something. Unless you're Teal'c, of course.

Exactly what went through my head:

Player A fires SPAS 12 at 20 feet and scores a 1 shot kill to the chest...

"Holy Shit! Someone at IW actually knows how the hell a shotgun works!!!!!!"

Then I saw they had a silencer attachment "/wrist"

My "Holy Sh*t moment" was insert *all the previous complaints* after a frustrating week of playing, (I've already moved onto L4D 2 and simply won't waste money on another IW product.)

My holy sh*t moment in MW2 is when someone was in an ac130 and kept killing me and my entire team!!!!

 

[SirusTheMadDJ]

Holy shit, Did I just bounced a throwing knife off the wall to kill someone?

Holy shit, Did I just bounced a RANDOMLY thrown knife off the floor to kill someone?

Holy shit, Half an hour and I still haven't got a game on day one?

Holy shit, The new hosting system actually kills parties on start up 70% of the time?

Holy shit, Are they really BANNING Xbox Live parties from playlists?

And just to place my mark on the whole "THIS GAME IS SHIT ON THE PC" argument, any game with multiplayer aspects that denies private servers are effectively killing off one MAJOR community factor; Clan Servers. What is the point of allowing clan tags if you haven't got a server to play with your mates on it? Adding to that and the host migration problems, either on the console versions, and you're pretty much killed any reason a PC gamer would be interested in a console port.

CoD4, even today, is still setting benchmarks for multiplayer. And the changes to MW2's format is a considerable step back. Bring on the crackers for the Dedicated Server "patch" I'd say.

Also, Anyone else hating the "Pro" perk system? I don't want increased hip accuracy AND longer empty lung time AT THE SAME TIME thank you. Defeats the whole point in using the scope at all. I've lost count on CoD4 of idiots Steady Aim Acog Sniping by running up and waving their bolt actions like school kids. Seriously, I just hate the whole "no-scoping" fad.

CONGRATZ. YOU AIMED AT THE CENTRE OF YOUR SCREEN. AWESOME!

Ho. Ly. Shit.

Other than that, good game. Not FUCKING AWESOME, just "good"

I'm only halfway through the single player yet, but there have been a couple.

Spoiler: I just don't want to upset anyone...

First when I was about to jump and cling to the ice wall with MacTavish. I thought I made a mistake and didn't jump as far as I was supposed to, which cued the "Holy shit" phrase. But then MacTavish saved me and it was all good.

Second was pretty much the same in the "Hornet's nest" mission, when I ran to Nikolai's chopper. Jumped the gap, fell to the edge and thought, "aah, there's MacTavish saving me again..", but no. It was actually pretty awesome fleeing from the mob in the favela.

 

[Eggsnham]

when makarov shoots you i hid behind a the wall and he still got me

When Makarov shoots you, it's a cutscene, you can't move around.

actually you can just dont go up to the ambulance try it before you say it next time

Whoops, my bad!

 

[evilgrim]

This may look like trollin'

But there was none.

The game's bland as hell.
I've played just about EVERY aspect of it before.

So yeah.
There's no "holy shit" moment in it for me.

 

[pdxer]

My HOLYFUCK moment was when I read there would be no dedicated servers for the PC. I was like, fuck that, those bitches are not getting any of my monies. What made me decide the game was as worthless as broken dish washer, 6 hour single player.

Kudos to IW for targeting stupid people and making shit loads of cash off them!
I'd have more fun at work and get paid twice as much in the same amount of time!

 

[Carlston]

In multiplayer spec ops of the heli cover mission.

My dumb shit buddy was watching my screen instead of his own while moving. Walks on a guy who starts blasting him. Hitting the wrong button he throws and hits the guy in the chest with a frag grenade. Not only did he react say ooph he then ran away like Holy crap what was that! Not a bad reaction of a cpu drone.

 

[Goombanator]

Using the "Witch" set up and jumping from the roof of the airport tower on terminal to someone below, and stabbing them in the head before I landed.If that person is anywhere, I will pay for the killcam. Another one was on wasteland when I forgot I had throwign knives equipped and tried hurling a grenade, But instead I fluked and the forward arc sent the knife about 50 feet into the air and back down into someones chest.

 

[WittyName]

Playing the final Spec Ops mission on my own on regular, when I saw 3 of the juggernauts come towards me at once.
