The game pre-infinite ammo wasn't balanced. It's more balanced now than it's ever been.
If you're not playing for money, you're not playing for competition to to be the best. You can't prove you're the best over Xbox Live because of lag, host advantages, inconsistencies, shots don't always register, etc.
Also, COD wasn't created to be competitive, at least I hope not because it has never been a skill requiring game. It seems more like a Wii Sports, a game that's just meant to be fun, which it has now achieved due to infinite ammo. Javelin glitch was actually really useful and they should've just kept it. Sure, let's just cater to the campers even more, right? I wouldn't mind camping in a game that actually requires you to, you know, one in which you actually lose health, so you need to play it safe.
The game is a mess and how anyone finds it good is beyond me. I can see why some people like a lot of games, just not MW2. It's not competitive, it's not fun in any sense and it's just a complete unbalanced game with terrible maps. Nothing about the multiplayer is good and yet it's praised. Why? Because it's Call of Duty? That's the only reason I can see it being.

bae games dont get nominated for game of the year. now do they sell 5 mill copies in a day. regardless of what YOUR personal feeling of the game is. its a good game. and no i dont feel theres a balancing issue...thats why they have the skill perk system and difference weapons. if you dont like the game thats fine, obviously nothing im gonna say will sell u on a different idea but thats not my idea anyway. glitches or not...at least the developers take the time to correct the problems they see in theire product....thats called being a good developer. its also pretty obvious COD is meant to be a competitive games which is why you have a ranking system and also leaderboards. Money doesnt define what is or isnt a good time or fair gameplay...nor does it mean things need to me all screwed up messed up because theres none in the equation..... how bout, because i paid my 60 dollars i expect to have fair and equal gameplay which is why IW has taken the time to correct their mistakes, because they use the same logic. your logic for needing it to be a fair game or competitive games is sooo stupid its not even funny...but everyones entitled to their own opinonDifference in weapons, yet only 5 of them are useful. Wanna know what they are? M16, ACR, SCAR, Akimbo Rangers, Akimbo Model 1887. Perks in no way should even be associated with the word skill as all they do is casualize gameplay.
It takes two or more headshots with nearly every other weapon, POINT BLANK range in MW2 to kill someone. I tested it out with my friend on MY host and it took 3 shots with an M4. That's you're idea of a good game? Ok, that's nice.
By the way, one M4 shot to the toe killed him. Oh yeah, what a great game. :roll:
I also never said that things need to be screwed up because there's no money involved, don't know where ou pulled that out of but ok. All I said was the game is actually more fair and balanced now with everything screwed up than it was prior.
Being a good developer is releasing a beta for your game to make sure there are as little bugs and glitches as possible. It's also to make sure the game is balanced, not needing an update every two weeks to try and fix the game. StarCraft 2 is going to sell millions, but guess what, Blizzard is still doing a very thorough beta to make sure when the game is released, people get to enjoy it.
Halo 3 was guaranteed 5 million sales easily, but guess what? Bungie still did a beta because they wanted to make sure the fans could play the game on release.
THOSE are good developers.
Bad developers, Infinity Ward. They did good with COD4, even though their beta was useless because it was more of a multiplayer demo, as the game was still flawed when released. People like you then hyped them up to be the greatest developers ever, COD4 was the king of all shooters so they figured, hey, no need for a beta because everyones going to buy the game anyway. Now look at what we have, a complete mess of a game less than a month into release.
The game won't be playable for months because they decided to cut corners, and yet ignorant little kids like you and everyone else in this thread will just openly accept it and continue to praise IW on doing nothing but taking your money. Good job kids, thanks for helping kill gaming.
Wow hey way to go in criticizing my age for my preference in gameplay. nice one there chief way to win the discussion. ;). obviously u think the way u think because u like game better WITH glitches. and im assuming this because u say its more balanced than before. id rather lose by someone having a laggy server than someone glitching their way to victory because obviously having a laggy server isnt done intentionaly...niether is it in this case but the glitch is being exploited to death. also having a beta test was a great idea fun bungie...wonderful dude but jsut because they dont doesnt make them a bad developer..that is fail logic right there. nobodies perfect, therefore you cant expect imperfect people to make perfect games....even halo had/has glitches that people exploit. are u that blind to see it....thats why these games continue to have online MP updates...(mostly)
and jsut because you like a game doesnt automaticly put you into a category for simple minded *kid* gamers. you dont know and probably never will without research, what games people favor. because i bought the game doesnt mean i think the game is the end all of MP shooters. i actually like R6V2 over COD...now thats tactical and some good gaming righ there.
also i sense someone being a little hypocritical, you say that were killing gaming but youre the one praising glitches and bugs for making games *more balanced*good job there chief...mabey you can also make a thread on the 360 board about the top 10 reason to buy a PS3. and mabey on your server shooting someone in the foot is an instant kill i for one think youre a complete liar in this tegard as ive JUST tested this theory before posting this rant. but if you honestly think you can only win with that tny slection of guns you listed then youre as much of a noob as the next one...u obviously have no idea how to use the PERK SYSTEM!!!! WHICH IS WHAT BALANCES THE GAME!!!! do u get it now??? those guns are for distance but they dont shoot fast and are powerful. SMG's are for closer ganes but shoot faster and arent as powerful...thus you have the perks man...honestly. u can hate the game all you want but if your only reason to hate it is because its got some glitches and its popular and YOU feel its unbalanced then thats your opinion but to the almost 10 mil other people who bought it....its still one hell of an experience.
u see, u seehow i did all that without criticizing you. its called "TACT" look it up...
