I ran into an interesting event..

It was capture the flag in overtime. We had to defend the flag, but the other team won within five seconds (literally) in overtime.

You forgot to add sheer lack of quality players which is probably more to do with 360 having almost double the amount of players playing MW2 then their counterpart..

Typically people don't stand around huddled so that a greanade can kill 4 people. One dies, someone else shoots them. Respawns typically in the cave or near by.

I have never seen the cave campers do well on that map.. Always stay outside and shoot them like fish in a barrel..

A nube tube x 2 will clear the cave out.

I use the n00b tube when I get pissed during a match, and I probably use it more than anyone in our little crew, but I wish they would do away with the ****ing thing.

It pisses me off, that's true, but I can't get too mad at people who use them, because they chose it over other attachments and I don't. I wouldn't mind if people used them as a supplement to kill people hiding in impossible to breach places but just lobbing them left and right, irritates me.

For example, I have no problem being noobtubed out of the 2 story in Skidrow or the embassy in Invasion, but I WILL get pissed if I get tubed in the middle of Highrise or Scrapyard. Just shit like that.

That's 2 team kills I owe you.

#1 - your day is coming....quickly. PS3 is going to be charging.

#2 - RRoD is dead with the newer consoles.

LOL. I played after work today for an hour or so. Trying to get Danger Close Pro and my set up was a n00b tube and a thumper. I pretty much used them exclusively and went from 5 kills to 70.

I may have to do that tonight, except I'll just use OMA on my main rifle.

RRoD is not dead in new units. Heat will still kill the board even with the extra heatsink.

That's my take on noob tubes as well. I don't mind them when used casually, but when a person dies over and over and just busts out the tube and launches randoms all over the map, then fuck them.

Same with knives. I don't mind getting stabbed in the back because you don't want to waste bullets and give away your position, but when someone holds a care package to run super fast around the map stabbing people with commando from down the hallway. A big fuck you to you too you skilless piece of sh*t.

I'd like to say that I hate n00b tubes. But yesterday I did what Molitoth said - n00b tube, die, n00b tube, die, etc. I'm not proud of myself - I actually feel a little bit dirty. But, I'm done with it - got my pro version of danger close.

Please don't stone me.

Haha, I was doing the Marathon + Light Weight + Commando in G-Dub last night. I felt hella durty too. I got Commando Pro in 2 matches (never used it before) and I don't think it will take very long to get the Commando VI challenge done. Light Weight will be taking forever, though. SIGH.

Side note: I was running around with an SMG out - none of that care package bullshit.

I'm really happy I FINALLY got my Hardline VI done - 250 kill streaks was a bit much, IMO, but who am I to judge.
