is all the hacking on the pc version or do the consoles have hacks as well?
Go back to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare?
well kind of (still works the same, no "ping" in numbers, but ping in bars)... you watch the bars and the guy with full bars that never moves is the host... But I am sure you can watch and half the people have bars that don't move, because of strong host and those players on a good connection
So how do you tell if you end up being the host? I have the PC version. It's not like the old days of serving/playing, you hold tab and you see some guy with 0ms ping
its a simple config edit that changes your four green bars to ten. just google it. the host will always have 10 full bars.
The sad truth? You might wanna pound a few beers before you read this:
• The host is immediately obvious, he's the guy with 0-20 ping (full green).
• I usually connect with about 101-200+ms.
• Most people are connected at 200+ms (3 or less bars on normal cfg settings).
• On regular cfg settings, 4 bars means up to 0-100 ping, 3 bars 101-200, 2 bars 201-300, 1 bar is 301+.
what kind of casual player would want to play in that environement and consider it fun?
weird people
sounds like you haven't spent much time playing on dedicated servers.
I play CS Source, TF2 and CoD 4 on dedicated servers, low ping, admins to ban/kick the hackers and all around good fun
OH OH OH YEAH
we're not restricted to less than 18 player matches!!! Lolz
Go back to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare?
I'm really not saying this to troll but what do people see in COD4? I just don't get it. It seems like every server is Deathmatch or TDM which gets boring fast imo. The grenade spam combined with the airstrikes and helis is just as annoying. Not to mention all of the pray and spray tactics.
Apparently it's just me but I just want to know what people see in that game.
HC HQ is where it's at. i've spent hours playing nothing but HC HQ.
I do enjoy HQ in COD5 but it's just really hard to find a server in COD4. Maybe I'll give it another shot. Although, I enjoyed COD5 as a whole quite a bit more.
I'm not a big fan of HC servers though. The grenades (that people tend to spam) to me are much harder to spot than in other games. I also don't know the maps as well as the hardened players.
What amazes me is how easy it is to get hacks, all you need to do is google MW2 Hacks. What I don't get is why Microsoft and/or IW isn't suing these people, they're easy enough to find.....
Sorry to be a little off topic but are saves stored on the server side in MW2?
If I remember right with COD4 if you reformatted or something you would lose your level and weapons. I might be imagining things though. Considering upgrading to Win7 and don't want to lose my hard earned lvl 45 in MW2
I know this has been hammererd into the ground already, but WOW. What were they smoking over there at IW??? Competetive multiplayer MW2 is a JOKE. If some guy is bragging about "pwning" you all the time, he probably has just had the good fortune of being closer to the host and better ping (aka not 200ms).
Ive seen these SS before. This is a stupid-fuckhead-taken-out-of-context-screen shot. This shit happens every once in awhile, and generally only happens when migrating to a new host or new game starts, before everyone is sync-ed up. Either that or this SS was taken in east bumble fuck Montana, but probably not since theres two good pings.
Maybe so, but anything above about 80 ms in an FPS means game-altering lag. Period.
as of the new patch are people still having problems with cheating???? i havent experienced any on 360
I haven't either- it's been very pleasant playing lately.
FYI- for those complaining about the "whiney 12 year olds" on Xbox live....there is a setting that mutes all players except those who are on your friend's list- problem solved.
Name me a single game that someone or another doesn't hack apart and cheat in???? 1 game I dare you
I think there is a big difference between expecting a good game and expecting glitches to get resolved. You don't see much hacking in the 360 version but holy fuck the care package glitching is ridiculous. i mean they fixed the javelin stuff fairly quick, what the hell are they doing? its been like this for over two months now.
How do games get patched on the 360 without HDDs?
