Well I haven't gotten sick of multiplayer yet like I did with the first game. Potentially a good sign.
Getting better at the annoying campaign missions too. |

I've been playing this loads in the past week in lieu of doing any work. It's a good game but frustrating as fuck trying to get a decent run of multiplayer games. I didn't get MW3 but the lag compensation in Black Ops was broken and ultimately ruined the game for me. Similar thing here, the lag compensation is absolutely fucked. I've only played this, BO and MW2. I figured out to have a decent game in MW2 I needed to wire up my connection and if you were host, you'd murder everyone. It's gone the other way now, if you're host then you're basically fucked.
I back out of games if I see I'm being fucked over. I know they have this system now for banning people who quit, but I'm not hanging around the game to be minced by people with shitty connections. I've changed my search preferences now to only games with the best connections, which hopefully will help. In terms of the game itself, the maps are really strange. There's no real bottlenecks anywhere like you usually get, so everyone is all over the map and it's really hard to build up streaks. I don't think I've seen anyone get a high streak not via care package. I suppose it's good for all those people who whined about campers but it's a bit annoying being stopped in your tracks repeatedly by people spawning in weird places or people randomly coming out from behind one of the endless corners. |

Can you join #TCB on PS3? Or is it because I created it in 360 it's 360 only?

I think the lagging was worse in BO. It's not so bad here, a few games here and there but not too bad.
And yea I haven't noticed anyone get too crazy on the killstreaks either. Unless the other team is all beast players and other team is noobs |

Low streaks is where it's at. I run UAV, Hunter Killer, Care Package exclusively. Easy to get multiple times per match, and care package gives me the chance for a higher level reward. Better still if you're running with Hardline and Engineer.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. I unlocked UAV, care package, guardian early on and haven't had any desire to switch to anything else.
Had a Guardian and Sentry Gun out at the same time last night which were both doing very well. |

Unlocked the riot shield and... I'm not liking it
I mean I still finished first on my team about 3500 but had 3-27. Seems like it doesn't protect you as much as it used to. |

If you land a Sentry gun or stealth chopper, you can hide and ride those towards other streaks for DAYS! (not literally, but its a long time).
The low streaks are strong, if only because NOBODY SEEMS TO CARRY A ANTI-AIR LAUNCHER BESIDES ME IN GAMES. So irritating dying because im trying to shoot something down for the good of the team. |

Yup. I think #TCB won't have a problem with that though because Blitz and I were shooting down a bunch of shit last night

Also, according to G, you can't hear when someone is arming/disarming the bomb. I haven't noticed/haven't had an opportunity.

FHJ is my only secondary, unless I'm sniping. So happy it's unlockable from the start.

Yea I agree with the lower point streaks. I have Uav,care package, and guardian. With engineer. And I also shoot down every enemy Uav or counter Uav

I use UAV, Care Package and Sentry Gun. I have Ghost on so fuck those other pricks who won't shoot down UAVs, I did it for long enough but I'm happier to get the hop on the other team when they have their UAV up.
I am a bit dismayed at the lack of snow levels. Just had a game there where I had full green bars and running with a strong connection speed where I nicked an opponent's Death Machine then didn't kill a single person with it despite hitting them. Got out-gunned every time. Backed out. Game's broken. |

Friend has a 100mbps internet package, literally could not play MW3 because his connection was so good.
Is there anyway short of dedicated servers that the host won't always be screwed? |

Started out absolutely horrible tonight, but then switched to Domination and absolutely owned. Got MVP 2 games ina row, and got 7 captures each game.
ACtually got the dragonfly kill streak, and took down a few people. Was fun, but I might switch to a lower kill streak. |

Can you gents do me a slight favor and explain how the points thing works for killstreaks? I see the UAV is like 550. I seriously doubt you need a half dozen kills for one.
And how does this Guardian thing work, seems nice. |

Think you get 100 points for a kill, but there are tons of ways to get points.

200 for a flag capture I see. Been checking over the guns and such, seems alright but disappointed at the lack of the AK47

The last assault rifle is basically a future AK. Forget the name off the top of my head, the AN-whatever.
