Default MW2 : Cheap 'n Noob

OK, don't get a heart attack, not expecting anyone to flame or get flamed or even get upset....just wanted to know from a game perspective what guys find noobish* or cheap in MW2...

So in COD4, i quickly picked up that 3xgrenades, martrydom, juggernaut and the noob tube were considered items/perks chosen by newbies to survive or required less skill...what do you guys think are cheap inclusions in MW2...

My opinion so far and listening to players....
  • Painkiller can be annoying, but is only there for a limited time and extreme situation (person must be killed 3 or 4 times)
  • Lightweight with Commando where a small pearing knife turns into a sumari sword that is stuck into you from such a distance that it's almost like it was teleported ala star-trek from there to your chest.
  • Lightweight with Akimbo can sometimes feel cheap. And when Akimbo's still stab you, even worse....
  • Claymores - This is a personal one, i still hate getting killed with it...+

Anyone's got anythign they preferred wsa left out of the game... ?

That's the problem right there! People who said those were "noob" perks were the players who thought they the greatest and what they say goes, and they'll just keep hitting out at you until you stop, the only person that every complained with a VALID point was Shibobo about how Juggernaught is unbalance because even with stopping power and deep impact, it still took awhile to kill the person using it, but I still didn't mind facing someone with it! The other perks have nothing wrong with them and it was just the "kings" who complained... So from my side nothing ever frowned upon in the past and nothing will be frowned upon in the future...

@Raged : looks like it, hence the quietness...lol, but it was more to say personally what you would have preferred not in the game...but yeah....it'll die quick or infoguy will lock But now i'm at home and can play MW2, so no need to get worked up by talking about it !

@Tsotsi : yeah, i never actually like juggernaut for some reason, seemed a waste when you playing a game where kills are important...death is just a part, but i heard that painkiller gives you 300% health, gonna start using that for sure as a deathstreak...300% even for 10 seconds rules especially on Rust or the Yard....

@Dark : I really want to try it, looks fun..especially n closed maps..invasion...or Favela's....

@everyone else : See you in MW2 land

Look the only thing that use to annoy me in COD4 was the tube, not because it wasn't fair, but many using it would abuse it... In other words they'd choose the following perks, 3 grenades, overkill and more explosive damage (can't remember the name).

Now take a game of S&D, teams always spawn in the same place, the guy would have 2 primary weapons with the tube and if they knew the right angle, fire one off at the beginning and kill one or 2 guys, fire another and maybe kill someone else... Then they'd litter the air with 3 grenades and kill another one or 2 guys, then just sit back with the tube waiting to see someone in the distance and kill them with it.

It didn't involve much practice just luck & trial and error, and they would never actually even use many bullets

I dont think claymores are cheap. I use them quite often when defending. Normally I will be the only person in a room defending an objective, so I put a claymore at one entrance and guard the entrance of another. Nothing noobish at all.

One perk that I did use, and appreciated alot when i was still learning the game, was Martydom. or something. Where when you die you drop a grenade. It kinda made me not scared to run towards an enemy blindly, cause at least I knew that I could get a kill by my death-nade. Kinda cheap i admit.

I really dislike the grenade launcher. and havnt used it yet (but gonna need to, to unlock the shotgun attachment) as I find it doesnt take much skill to kill a guy. just point and blow up.

Lightweight and Commando is ace though... need to be quick in this game, and its my 2 most used perks. Sorry for those who dont like it, but for the style I play it helps alot.
