MW 2 - Boosters & Nukes
Discussion
So totally got on my piles last night.
Happened 4 games in a row...i know i should have backed out but was intrigued.
2 Mcmericans - didn't appear to be clanned up (well they werent as they were on different sides for the 4 games), first the same guy called in a nuke 3 times then the following game the other called one in which gave him away.
Looked on their (very small) friends list and they were both on each others. I filed complaints for cheating.
These guys must just do this all the time as their rank was Prestige 3 or 4...or higher.
And before you ask the question "maybe they were that much better?", when they were both on the same team their scores were pathetic, not being able to get more than 6 or 7 kills in a game.
Also, is it a giveaway when these "guys" have very few 360 XP points in their profile, either in total or game specific?
We should have a name and shame forum where we can encourage all PH'ers to file complaints on these cheating muthas as they really do ruin the enjoyment.

Sadly Infinity Ward dont give a flying **** about it. Theyve made their money now and dont care about all the bad press the game is getting from all the thousands of pissed off gamers out there.
But using the Xbox system to complain about cheating goes to those at Microsoft, not Infinity Ward. Right?If enough people complain about you then you get a suspended or banned, surely?
What you need is to join the Nuke Boosting Douche Hunters, and hunt down and kill the feckers:

It would be very easy to resolve.Make the nuke only available if kills were against a minimum of 60% of the opposing team and/or the kills have to come from X number of different points on a map. Such a simple patch.
The boosting that goes on is so stupid on these games.
It's been the same forever with pretty much any game, if people can be bothered to boost each other up the rankings then they will. Always used to happen on UT's "Worldstats" too.
The simple answer is just don't bother about your stats, and if you do, just don't play in games with people who exploit it?

I've gotten a sense for these a
holes recently after having it happen to me.
I pretty much only play on domination and that is the one they go for as the respawns are instant and people are usually focused elsewhere capturing the flags.
You just need to keep an eye out on the scores earlyish on in the game. If you see someone on 6-0 and another on 0-6 then you might be on to them. Of course it might just be someone good and someone st running into each other, but if you press start to see the game map, and see a player icon right over in some small corner of the map then you know they are fking about.
Run over to the pricks and kill the opposing team member, being sure to wipe out his tactical insertion as well.
Then just follow your team mate who is glitching until they get fked off and leave.
Its fking annoying though.

It would be easy to resolve but IW nor Microsoft care. I got really fed up one day and went on IW's forums to have a look and see what they were doing about the glitches etc and they all have the attitudes of 15 year old kids. They dont care and they have the cheek to get rude with people genuinely complaining about these problems.
Microsoft dont care either as they probably get thousands of these complaints every day and theres no way they can respond to them all.
IW have made their money and as far as they're concerned its a job well done even though Ive never heard more complaints about a game in my entire life. Microsoft are probably happy too as Im sure its helped ship a few new Xboxs.
We can only pray they do something about it but Im not getting my hopes up after seeing the attitude they have.

I caught a couple doing this yesterday, young kids and they were even talking about meeting in the same spot... So I camped out after following one.. Hey and behold his mate turned up bam.. I took him out
he carried on coming back.. One harrier, chopper and a nuke by me and they were moaning how the he'll I got such a good streak lol.. Next game they do the same .. So do I .. Get up to a harrier and then they must of left as game stalled and couldn't find a new host.. Boo hoo.. To be honest I haven't been in many games where ppl are doing this,. Well on the PS anyhow.

Was in a HCHQ game with a guy using the grenade launcher / one man army trick, got silly in the end he was camped by the HQ, you couldnt get behind him and he just kept launching grenades at us all. In the end the whole team backed out and all filed a complaint with XBL.
I've only recently started prestige, but have already experienced 2 tactical nukes, bloody annoying when you are winning then someone of the other team throws a mushroom cloud

what's wrong with that?I use OMA pro and noob tube alot on some maps...
Not to be picky, but it's exploiting not glitching - there's no flaw in the coding that lets them wonder off to a corner of the map and kill each other, they're just exploiting the game in general.
The Heartbeat Monitor Heroes are easy to sort - just equip Ninja and you can kill them over and over and over again
And as for the OMA/Noobtube - practice with the sniper rifle, there's always somewhere you can get a bead on him where he won't be able to hit you with the tube, especially if you have cold-blooded pro

I got thrown in a game on Wasteland yesterday and i heard a noise i didn't recognise straight away, it was the coutdown timer for the nuke. My game lasted about 4 seconds! It waas the first time i had been a victim of a nuke.
Nothing too spectacular apart from the fact that it was domination and the score was only 29 - 39. i checked the stats and one guy had 41 kills but no-one had more than 10 deaths. It would seem that he wasn't being boosted (or if he was it was by 3 different players) and he may have just been good!

I use OMA Pro, Ninja Pro and Cold blooded (don't think I have pro yet?)...And as for the OMA/Noobtube - practice with the sniper rifle, there's always somewhere you can get a bead on him where he won't be able to hit you with the tube, especially if you have cold-blooded pro
If people are gonna camp, I'm gonna tube. Simples!
I get alot of abuse from snipers in the lobby afterwards
I was paying on Derail last night.
When i play with my brother & my mates we take the building to the left of the map.
Last night i decided as i was on my own i'd defend it myself, with a shotgun and akimbo uzis.
I kept running between the entrances at the front and back, then in the main room, mowing down whatever came up the stairs.
There was a guy on their team called marc the sniper, so as i hate snipers i thought this is going to be fun.
He obviously liked the room quite a lot.
I killed him 7 x in a row until he wised up, everytime he'd fire 2 x thumper grenades in, a semtex & 2 x flash's to try and work out where i was, i was cleverer than him though and kept dodging them, he'd run in again & i killed him a further 6 times (after i'd been killed by his mate).
I was the only guy to kill him as he had 13 deaths and about 3 kills, in earlier games he was their top scorer due to just getting into a position & holding it, he just couldnt play without being in that building!
