I can't stop playing zombies.

3)The knife combat in this game is very VERY suspect! I'd be in a close quarters knife fight with some clown, and it would show my knife literally penetrate his body, and it would even make the "juke" stabbing sound.....and yet, he winds up stabbing ME! If I had a dollar for every time this happens I'd be a trillionaire!

You're missing. This game is precise.

4)Same with gunfights....I'd be in a gunfight with some other knucklehead....we'd be facing each other blasting away, but I CLEARLY opened fire first, yet I'm the one who goes down! The fuck's up with that shit? I don't know, it must be lag but it gets very very annoying!

You're either spraying all over (shooting from the hip) or he has a way better gun than you. Never get in to a direct firefight with someone who has a browning or a deployable. And don't hide behind walls, either. They can shoot through them. You can usually tell who has a good gun by how loud it sounds. A browning is hard to mistake.

5)Most of the maps are very good, but Seelow and Outskirts are way way WAAAAAY too fucking big for their own good. With only 6on6 max, those stages make for a very boring game, especially with the amount of shitty camping going on in houses. Take those two maps(along with the dogs) out of W@W and you got a nearly perfect game.

Those maps are for sniping. There are some very talented sniping players in this game. And the maps aren't as open as you'd think. Pretty much anything up the middle of that map is a dead zone. Good luck waltzing through it on hardcore without a bullet through your face.

Thanks for the replies guys you raise some very good points. My game is improving everyday and It's starting to dawn on me that my complaints have more to do with me simply not being that good at aiming, reacting and camera movement yet. Still gotta work on those crucial factors but I'm getting there

Now.....I have a question I'm hoping you can answer for me:

I would like to know which version of this game has more people playing late at night...the Xbox 360 or PC version?

The reason I'm asking is because I want to be able to find multiplayer games with good ping late at night like around 1 or 2AM when most people are asleep, and was curious whether my chances of finding a low ping sever in my local during area during those hours are better on the PC version or on the 360 version? Ditto with Modern Warfare?

Isamu, It'll always be easier to find a low lag game on PC since the lobby is done in "PC style" showing the ping and such. 360 is hit or miss. There are more people playing on Xbox than Pc, I'm sure, but you'd prolly have a better experience on PC. I play console for 2 specific reasons: 1) My friends all play on console and 2) I LOVE talking shit on people in the lobby due to it having a party system. I had COD4 for both platforms and enjoyed them on both. If I had more folks on PC , I'd have the PC version as well. As is, most people play WoW 'cept for a few hardcore TF2 and BF2 players

Anyone up for some 4player competitive co-op late tonight, or sometime tomorrow?
I haven't played that yet, and heard it's pretty good. Plus I need the achievements.

I'm up for some competitive co op but not tonight, unfortunately.

So after Ogcritic, Biff, and Advocate left I stayed and played one more game with Neowagz. I got in a tank and raped fools. 25 kills 3 deaths. You guys missed a good one.
