Re: Smoke needs a buff

MMS does as well. I have a class where I'm running smoke, mms on my rifle, and scavenger. I run it on maps where I'm trying get to the other side without being noticed. Also works good as a diversion.

Re: Dropshot/Jumpshot Why do players refuse to adapt?

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 12 May 2013 16:01:56 GMT

Yup. Easy headshot. OP says we should adapt. I like his second suggestion better. I don't understand this obsession with doing something just because "pros" do it. The most these clowns get me in a gun fight is once. After that I just anticipate their shenanigans and make quick work of them. I have to say though, it is freakin hilarious when they rage into the mic when their "pro skillz" got them killed.

Call them. The same thing happened to me. They're making everyone add security to their accounts. Something went wrong when I did mine and I ended up getting locked out of my account for 2 days.

I feel like SPM is more important in some game modes than others. I think it has it's place in objective modes. In team deathmatch, I feel like it just encourages mindless running and gunning. Let's face it, its just another aspect of the game that encourages it. Small maps, with tight routes, most people run around mindlessly with an SMG, prefiring every corner. Can you have a high SPM and have a high K/D? Of course a decent player can. However, you have average players running around constatnly flipping spawns. While they might go something lke 18-17, I'd rather have someone that goes 10-1 or 10-2 and not flipping spawns. The guy that's constantly flipping spawns is only out for himself. He doesn't realize that he's screwing his teammates as he's causing the enemy to spawn behind his teammates and they get shot in the back. Most of the time these people don't go positive and are really teammate #7 for the other team.

This is his game. He does it all the time. Just look anywhere on the boards. My favorite is when he acts like the forum police or that he works for XBL operations team.

Re: Should hardcore use a new method for team killing?

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 19 Apr 2013 17:16:39 GMT

I've always liked COD'4 3-5-7 system. However I can consistenly go lightning strike > sentry > AGR. If I'm playing HCKC I'll run lightning stike > AGR > VSAT. I've lost count though how many times I've hit lightning strike and then some idiot starts spamming me with tacticals or anything else they can do to get me killed, even killing me themselves.

Also just to clarify what I said above: I'm talking this kind of behavior in this post. Not the once in awhile someone spawned in front of me and didn't realize what they were doing when they stepped out in front of me. I'm talking about full-on trolling until you give up and quit.Or the douche succeeds in getting you kicked.

Re: Should hardcore use a new method for team killing?

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 19 Apr 2013 16:13:28 GMT

I'm not saying that accidental TK's should be taken out.

I also didn't say I'm TK'ing in retaliation. In most instances I've encountered trolls, I'm targeted because I'm on top of the scoreboard or I'm on a streak. If you are already engaged in a firefight, and someone runs up from behind you and runs/jumps/dives into your fire, there is nothing you can do. These people will shadow you and wait for you to be engaged in a firefight and then grief you.

Re: Should hardcore use a new method for team killing?

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 19 Apr 2013 14:58:06 GMT

I think the way it is fine. I do think there needs to be better way to police the community. I'm specifically talking about trolls. Avoiding them doesn't always work, as you can still get matched up with them. If they are determined they will just follow you game to game.

I don't know if it's like this all the time, but when I play HCKC, it is rife with trolls. You can try to control your fire all you want, trolls will still be trolls. I for one, think something needs to be done about it. TA(and IW) need to change their policy here.

Re: Grading the Uprising maps

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 17 Apr 2013 18:15:04 GMT

Overrall I think the maps are pretty good. My only gripe is that there are no large maps. I'm getting tired of them catering to adhd, running and gunning, prefiring every corner. Also I think it's pretty funny the video tells people to take the stage on Encore and "dominate". We fanned out on the other side and the stage became a slaughter ground.

Oh I know. Doesn't mean I have to keep buying their crap.

Re: NO dlc on hardcore modes at all?

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 16 Apr 2013 17:21:49 GMT

Thanks for passing it on. Glad to hear it, although this oversight is pretty annoying. Also it doesn't help to endear them to an already ticked off Hardcore community.

Re: Are there any Hardcore modes for the Uprising DLC?

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 16 Apr 2013 17:06:34 GMT

I think the thing to do, as Hardcore players, is to start boycotting these games. They don't support us, why should we support them?

Re: What thing that noobs do Annoys You?

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 15 Apr 2013 05:30:32 GMT

When they constantly flip the spawn and feed the other team kills over and over. Essentially anything that they do to become teammate #7 for the other team.

Re: getting accused of cheating on this black ops

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 17:24:46 GMT

I had a game like that on Meltdown playing HCKC. I had around 60 kills, I had two sentry guns and two AGRs. Some guy in the lobby after the game claimed I was hacking. I laughed and told him to watch the game back in theater. I told him he would see his team repeatedly running in front of my sentries over and over.

Re: getting accused of cheating on this black ops

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 16:43:57 GMT

If I don't immediately mute the person, I will tell them to watch the game back in theater. If they keep harrassing me, I will tell them to go ahead report me if it makes them feel better. I know I haven't done anything wrong and I know the security team will see I'm not doing anything wrong either. If I get any messages after that I will usually just reply with, "thanks for the fan mail".

I've had it happen to me several times in Hardcore TDM.

Re: Advice on how to NOT team kill.

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 08 Apr 2013 22:56:29 GMT

Some good advice, but here's the problem. The Community. You can take every precuation not to team kill, but dedicated trolls will get you kicked every time. I estimate, and this is only my own experience, that probably every 7 or 8 games out of 10 of HCKC i play, there is a least 1 person trolling. Most games there are at least 2 or 3 people trolling.

Re: So the Ballista with Iron Sights....

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 07 Apr 2013 20:56:31 GMT

I feel like connection really affects the Ballista. Even in Hardcore, I've had many times where I shoot a guy center mass and watch the bullet pass right through. There are times where it just doesn't connect.

Re: Hardcore is not a "small community"... time for TA to admit it.

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 07 Apr 2013 19:22:09 GMT

When MW3 first came out, there was no Hardcore DOm playlist. A lot of people went back to Black Ops 1 just to play Hardcore DOM. I know people that haven't moved over to Black Ops 2 or traded in their copy of Black Ops 2 just because there is no Hardcore Dom and more support for Hardcore in general. If they add DOM to Hardcore, I expect the Core DOM numbers to drop. Not a significant amount, but I think it will be noticeable.
