MW2 - bugs and a rant
Discussion
I know games are going to have some bugs which are only found when they are released - getting out of maps and being able to sit inside the odd rock and that kind of thing, but WTF were the developers of MW2 thinking when they released the game with the s
tty bugs it has (in time for Christmas sales I suppose).
So, we've had the Javelin glitch, unlimited ammo glitch (which I think is back as I got 3 shots from a stinger today) and now the latest is the fking heartbeat sensor. Setting aside the fact that the game is meant to reflect reality in some small way and my severe doubt that these actually exist, why is every with a heartbeat sensor able to see me when I'm using Ninja Pro? What is the point in the Ninja perk if it doesnt work? Buggy ste.
Add that to the fact that the 1889 shotguns are the most powerful thing in the game (used by which army?) and the fact that somehow 'akimbo' lets you have a 3rd arm for reloading weapons and, I assume, some kind of bionic forearms to let you fire shotguns and machine pistols in each hand, it's all looking a bit less 'modern warefare' and more 'made up imaginary quake style warefare'.
I know it's only a game, but if I wanted something completely made up and impossible/improbably I'd have bought something with lasers and spaceships.

I have been noticing that my Claymores haven't been going off when tripped by an enemy... I put one down, turn around and walk away, then a second later I get shot by a guy that has just walked past it. I watch the killcam, he doesn't have Scrambler, so no delay on the Claymore, and he just walks over where it was (mysteriously absent from his screen) and guns me down.
Its annoying.

Re the heartbeat sensor. A couple of guys on the official ps3 forums proved that even when you are visible on the heartbeat sensor on the killcam, you cannot be seen in the game so itis a glitch with the killcam. For the stingers, the guy firing may have scavenger pro so he will pick up refills for that. I have done the same with the at4.

Heartbeat sensor i love it stops people camping lol
Its made up and st though. Modern Warfare, not future warfare!Besides perk 3 is so crap, with no deep impact, that the only sensible choice is ninja (if it actually works).

I don't think the Heartbeat sensor is a glitch on the Kill Cam, I got nailed yesterday by a guy who hunted me down using it. So now I've switched off Ninja Pro on my settings, steady aim at least is useful...
But yes, there are a few buggy aspects of the game.
Oh, have they turned down the power of the 1887s? I have shot a few people with them now and they didn't die, even at close range (I shot one guy with both barrels then I hit him again with a single barrel, but the fecker still shot me dead!?!?). Plus they no longer have the range they had before I prestiged !!

every fking moron uses this frase, CAMPING' so what is a sniper etc, people use different tactics, and no im not a so called camper, this is all i herar from people twisting, CAMPING CAMPING CAMPING, if you want to twist about CAMPING twist onto the likes of George Michael, Dale Winton etcalso people who twist about camping are those usually killed often buy on, think im missing alittle point here, also the game is called modern warefare, NOT RETRO OR VINTAGE WAREFARE, have you looked at the update weapons etc in real life, how do they compare to the game, judging by you, you expecting terrorists coming from mars or the death star to blow up parliament

I'm not sure what you are getting at? The heartbeat thing is definitely a bug. I used a HB sensor today, and purposely hunted down the red blips but waited for them to kill me - a good few had the ninja perk.
Oh, and if you use stingers, just keep firing if the chopper/AC130/harrier launches flares - you get unlimited stingers now so can shoot them down eventually.

Camping is hiding ontop of a filing cabinet with 1887s or whatever or hiding in a rock.
Relax bud, Jesus.
