Double XP?

[DPS]

When does it end? aint seen it advertised anywhere, but noticed it was double xp in all games.

[Chris]

Yeah 402 posted it on twitter but I dont care for mw2 now anyway.

Heres the info you need.

Just turned on Double XP on Modern Warfare 2 for all platforms, worldwide, for the entire 3-day Labor Day Weekend! Enjoy till Tues morning!

Init, neither do I.

I hear Treyarch want to do triple XP for Christmas this year and they might make it Wager Match only.

Yeah that sounds fair. They should do double on normal playlists but triple on wager. :D

Anyway, I still play mw2 but all I tend to do now is pick a spot, grab my sniper and kick somee ass! Heartbeat on barret ftw! :D

Heartbeat? You serious?

[dbgtz]

heartbeats amazing
anyway triple xp might urge me to go try the other wager matches, im only gonna play one in the barrle & the gun game. Dont like the thought of sticks and stones as there will be that 1 camper who will just throw his tomahawk. Infact I will play the one where everyone has the same gun. Infact scrap what I just said, I will never play sticks and stones but will play the rest.

[bobbyy]

Heartbeat. Yeah it's good but it's stupid. Heartbeat is for campers.

[Chris]

Camping on wager will get you no more than a loss of cod points.

And to the guy who said heartbeats dont work for snipers, your wrong. They're very helpfull when holding a position. Try for your self.

[dbgtz]

Theres a difference between camping and sniping tbh

i agree with infectious when it comes to hearbeats.

I'm not commenting on heartbeats attached to snipers, I'm commenting on the attachment as a whole.

But heartbeats only reach so far. Why would you need a heartbeat if you're sniping long distances? If it's short distances, then you just quick scope.

[dbgtz]

not everyone quick scopes
snipers arent designed to do so
i do not have steady aim
i like headshots

plus cod maps are usually short anyway.

[Chris]

Thats a dumb question. You use a heartbeat on the sniper to see if anyones trying to sneak up and kill you. It's a very usefull attachment on a sniper.

Anyway. double xp on mw2 is kinda pointless now seeing as the games been out almost a year. They need to be doing more than double to keep people playing.

If you're scoping through the sniper, you hardly have time to turn around and camp until the heartbeat sensor loads and tells you if anybody's around.

[Chris]

But I dont sit looking down the scope all the time, I zoom out to have a look to aquire a new target and often change positions to get a better view. Trust me, it does work well. :D

The only other good attacthments for snipers are thermal and fmj. <<<Imo

I've only seen Double XP in Runescape...
Either that, or i don't pay attention.
:D

FMJ's good. Meh maybe my opinions biased because I only like quick scoping with snipers lol.

[Chris]

Yeah, I cant quickscope at all. I have my sensitivity on 3, but thats just what im used to. I did try going higher once but I just lost control. xD

[bobbyy]

You use Xbox?

[Chris]

Yeah xbox ftw.

And we're going wayyy off topic here. Lmao. :p

See if mw2 did what gears 2 does and turns on like x5 xp, it would attract inactive users back to the game.

[bobbyy]

Add me on xbox and we can practice quick scoping? :P
Yeah it probably would but not much people are interested cause Black Ops is about to be released.
But a lot of people still actively play WaW so I guess MW2 will still be popular for a couple of years.

[dbgtz]

people still play cod4 let alone WAW

anyway quick scopings pretty easy tbh, but v boring imo, i like being stealthy with my sniper not running in with it.

anyway i also agree with doing like more than double xp, but knowing treyarch theyll do frequent double xps like with WAW so you never really lose interest enough :P

sorry to go off topic again but i just wondered, will IW follow this customisability treyarch are doing? Especially with the hiccup they had, will they even have time to? hmm, MW3 is looking interesting already.

If you're good enough with long-range quickscoping, you can still be pretty stealthy :)

[DPS]

Thanks :)

I might aswell hardscope and get a definite headshot everytime then relying on luck.

[Chris]

I didnt thing infinityward where doing mw2 until 2012? I thought that new studio was doing cod next year? :s

Quickscoping isn't luck? It's practice. If you hardscope someone short-range that can quick scope then you're going to loose, lol.

[Stitch]

I hate it when I go into a game and all I can hear is Interventions being shot every second. I also hate people who say stuff like "Oh my god hardscoper! What a noob!" It happened to me when I played in a FFA on Rust against this annoying guy and his friends and he probably only said that because I beat them all.

But quickscoping does take a lot of luck and apparently aim assist helps a bit.

How did this thread go from double XP to quickscoping anyway?

According the sledgehammers site its out in early 2011 meaning it might be out of the iw/treyarch cycle, guess we'll find out in a few months but yeah.

When you quick scope all your doing is ADS quickly pretty much, but because the sniper scope moves a bit, you rely on like for the crosshairs to land on the target.

I also hate it when people moan about hard-scoping, especially when you havnt. Hard scoping isnt looking down your sight for a second, noobs. Anyway I much prefer hardscoping.

Disagree with people moaning unless they clearly stated it was a QS/NS lobby lol...

Good question, how da hell did we? xD

And yeah, I think it would be great for the new studio if they did the 2011 one and then Treyarch and IW did a joint one. How awesome would that be. ^.^

Btw who loves my new avatar. :D

[DPS]

Tbh hardscope is done in real life so people can stop moaning about it. and if you get called a camper, just say you havent got your tent out today, so hardly camping ;]
