Call of the Red Dot Sight: COD 4 Tues Night
Moderators: Bill_Abner, ScoopBrady
Lots of fun tonight. The Sabotage and "Search and Destroy" modes were my fave:) I think the next time we play we should try Search and Destroy with no respawns just like in Sabotage. Otherwise you just spend 50 mins moving the bomb a lil' bit here and there (especially on Wetworks) and it gets just a tad stale after awhile.Macca00 wrote:Lot of fun tonight guys, I really enjoyed it. I definitely need to work on my Russian accent....I think I'm going to watch some Yakov Smirnoff clips on You Tube.
I don't know, I think the back and forth aspect is the best part about it. If the other team drops the bomb close to the target, its fun to run like hell to get it away from it.
Maybe set-up a shorter time limit however.

I think it's more about the match of the map to the game type. I don't think the ship is a good choice for that game mode, but the first time we played that mode I think it was much better. Some maps seem more suited for only a few game types, and then some maps seem to be good for anything, like the missile launch pad one, or 'overgrown.'JRod wrote:I don't know, I think the back and forth aspect is the best part about it.

I had a good time last night, although I was pretty bad! My headphone is kaput, so I couldn't communicate with anyone, and I was pretty lost on most of the maps, but it was a lot of fun. I hope I didn't shoot anyone I wasn't supposed to
. I found it really hard to distiguish the teams, until I realized the other team members don't have tags
. I'm gonna have to do some serious practicing on this.


It's you're, not your!!....Thank you.

Friendly fire is probably turned off, so you won't hurt your teammate.Metman24 wrote:I had a good time last night, although I was pretty bad!

Also, enemies are red in your crosshair, not that you will have alot of time to stop and look.

I actually thought that mode where the teams were fighting over the bomb kicked ass...
I ran a speed test last night and I was getting like 280ms ping to the DSL Reports server and about 400Kb download. This morning it was back to 20ms and 5000 so hopefully it was a 1-night lag thing for me, and I can't wait for the next CoD4 night.

Amen! The only mode that works on that map is free for all.

You guys really hate that map that much? What's the problem? Next time I'm in control and you guys are in the room, it's nothing but shipping containers over and over and over.
The one I hate the most is undoubtedly the ship map. That one almost makes me want to get rid of the game whenever it comes up, I'm not kidding. There is just nothing fun to me at all on that map, ever.

I'm not a fan of this cargo ship level either. Every game I've played on that just turns into a game of endlessley trading kills as it's so easy to close in on someone once you know where they are.Zeppo wrote:You guys really hate that map that much?
