what grinds my gears -There are no tanks(in mp) -no punkbuster -no redeployable mgs(what a rip) - russian mg taken out of the game -NO FG43 -VERY FEW SP TANK LEVELS -SP TOO SHORT -grease gun not included in sp -shotgun??????(where did thAt come from?) -very small mp maps and uh thats it well thats what grinds my gears. :beer: :beer: :mad: :cya: :bawl: |
Re: what grinds my gears i agree with you and i can add a few, noncookable nades no ragdolls, or anyother physics.... can not play in dx9 for more then half hour or so. very little recoil or kickback the dumb little icons the gameplay in MP itself (i find it hard to enjoy any of the gametypes)Below --------- DM-whats the point in it? TDM- There is no or very little teamwork, its only killing the bad guy but i hardly ever see teamwork in TDM. CTF- To me its fun but the spawn points are not in the best areas Hq-I dont play that enough to understand what it is,?., SD- Is fun but when you die early in the round and you have to set and wait till the new round to start is no fun Thats what i think about the gametypes of cod2.'' Could anyone gave me five good things which is fun about DM? thanks |
Re: what grinds my gears thanks dirtmann:mad: I forgot about that stupid annyoning grenade icon that took any ounce of realism that cod2 retained from its previous verison |
Re: what grinds my gears No ragdolls, I really miss that. And so much for a next-gen game :uhoh: |
Re: what grinds my gears "can not play in dx9 for more then half hour or so." The above is a system problem as opposed to a "feature" implimented into the game. I have no problems playing in dx9 for hours at a time. Everything else is right on the mark. DM? Never played COD DM... It does seem pointless. |
Re: what grinds my gears s/d and h/q are the only gt's i play--- lots of servers with cookables now---the dm and tdm thing is soooo boring s/d takes teamwork and planning--- dont be a rusher--(thats what we in s/d call the noobs rushing to the objective) just to be nade spammed--Hq was the first mod i played and i like it-- its changed in 2-- nolonger is their one objective but two-- then you have to wait to see what one you need to protect-- its basically taking a point in the map and holding it for as long as possible--or if your on the other team --taking the objective. MUCH funner than dm or tdm |
Re: what grinds my gears i thought of some more things that grind my gears :mad: -the fat german soldier(historically there were none,no one who fights in the army is fat -the panzer 2 in game instead of the more powerful verisons of the panzer like the PzKpfw III -the neatly trimed mustash on the german soldiers(against german rules) -the mg fire rate(not really a problem its just too weak) -mg Ai(they never kill anything even on veteran mode unless u walk 3 ft in front of them) -the officers are dressed in parade gear rather than war gear -for some reason axis only has one war plane the ju87stuka (which is a bomber not a fighter)and a transport plane the condor -no axis airsupport(WHaT HAPPENED TO THE LUFTWAFFE?) -you always win with no real resistance no sense of tension -tanks and halftracks dont storm through the lines keep their distance and relase germans before they get to the front lines instead of charging through-they seem to be there for cosmetic purposes -no german charges(unless u count thelaughable charge in the russian side which lasted 3seconds or the radically inaccuarate and unrealistic charge of el alemein) -panzershrek weak blast radius(trivial gripe but still a gripe) -lack of different stationary weapons such as: http://forgottenhope.bf1942files.com...2041/small.gif15cm Nebelwerfer 41 http://forgottenhope.bf1942files.com/images/world.gif -lack of german snipers (especially in ussr levels something the first cod and uo had) -i mayhave mentioned no russian tank levels! -luger and british gun from cod 1 looks better than cod2 -took away the flak tank from the first cod 1 level after training -more linear -motarers r ridiculously easy to spot (they dont hide or mortor from a far) -mp-40 rate of fire is mess up should shoot 600 rounds per minute -no ss troops only waffen -first 2 cods had lots of friendly causualties cod2 lessened it at least in the ost front -only 1 short russian charge -no russian air force or navy(not very big but did contribute to war effort) -still have yellow flashing icons rather than giving u the weapon -explosvies on tank tank turret and machine gun very weak against player - too many smoke grenades- nobodyreally had these especially not the soviets - the music from the ost front sounds like a cheap rip on music from enemy at the gates - MG-42 and the 30.cal dont over heat for somereason(mg had arate of fire of something like im not sure but 1200 rounds per sec I think that will heat up alot even in the ussr) oh and when i cant find the driods im looking for(family gUY) and thats what grinds my gears-lol :mad: :beer: :smokin: :eek: |
Re: what grinds my gears Rommel34, you're SO right. I can't say anything more or less ;) |
Re: what grinds my gears Quote:
Go play BF1942, get a mod called FH. Infact, going by your post you probably do already. Don't come to COD expecting vehicles, this is an INFANTRY GAME. Also, it is not supposed to be historically correct. The German moustaches are too neatly trimmed? You honestly care? That grinds your gears? Seriously, FH. Anyway, onto mine...

Re: what grinds my gears thanks for ur post yeah i have played bf 1942 forgotten hope a (very awesome mod) i have no gripes or rants about it well im just saying that the germans shouldnt have any "moustaches"( yeah i know it was a stupid and trivial gripe but it was driving me crazy) Even if cod2 focus on "infantry" that doesnt mean that u wont come accross the things i ranted about United offensive had about 5or 6 different aircraft,8+or-(not sure)tanks and a few different anti tank guns but most of its levels were infantry levels(sp) so it also focused on infantry (excluding the b-17 level)mp on the other hand was totally tank based unless u joined a non vehicle map( i liked both of them) in UO on one of the russian levels the ai use different vehicles and stationary anti tank weapons which add more realism and depth to a game especially after seeing the same flak gun over and over and over again in cod2-god i hate that flak gun-lol After UO who didnt think cod2 was going to have tanks in mp? Its what made cod So good remember UO is after all part of cod1 small rant or rather an observation I just reinstalled UO and COD1 i totally for got they had flamethrowers and bazookas(american) as well as a .50 cal(not the 30cal) and a anti tank rifle (cod 1) lol i probably rant too much- just want my 60 bucks back -lol |
Re: what grinds my gears What bothers me about COD2 is this: IW said that this game won't be linear, you would get choices on how to complete missions and such. But choosing in what order you plant bombs doesn't make it non-linear... |

Re: what grinds my gears the only thing that they should of really added was more mp maps |

Re: what grinds my gears or a map editor so you can dabble yourself--- when i bought unreal a few years ago i was impressed that they included a map-editor, and a Upaint program for making skins--- and a trial/novice version of Maya--- with tutorials (on using Maya) its kind of in-depth--- so now even the most noobiest person could use these programs to create his own stuff/maps-- it just integrated the consumer into the creation process-- really cool i think... now when i playUT04-- none of the maps played are stock maps-- tey are all created by clan mappers and individuals that took the time to learn the software--which wasnt too dang hard---some guys have made maps that were sheer artwork to me-- now atari has mapping competitions with great payoffs-- id love to see CoD go in this direction--- but im not holding my breath... thanks for hearing my rant!! |
Re: what grinds my gears All those things can or will be added in the following... - just an excuse for a CoD2 extension - just get someone to mod, or make a mod with everything you want... Xanithon |
Re: what grinds my gears SP is too short but it is very good. |
Re: what grinds my gears Quote:
on the plus side punkbuster is comming out for cod2 gfm beta is comming out soon downside no mission editor out yet-this makes me sad:bawl: no weapon conversions of the mg34 and the fg43:bawl: thanks for your posts |
Re: what grinds my gears HAd to register after reading this post just to mention something. I've come from being a avid player of Black Hawk Down to playing CoD2. I have tried BF2, JO and CSS. Both BF2 and JO are ruined by so much emphasis on vehicles which distracts from the infantry. The thing I love most about this game so far is the lack of tanks, jeeps, motorbikes or any other gimmick. Sure the game needs tweaks but vehicles is not the way forward in my opinion. Good posts by the way people. |
Re: what grinds my gears 1. Too small maps in MP 2. No custom maps in MP 3. No tanks or flaks in MP 4. No Ranks 5. Because on ^ no artillery 6. PPsH noobs 7. Shotguns period. 8. MG42 and other stationary MGs dont have a heat level Thats all I can really think of for now... |
Re: what grinds my gears What bothers me the most are the small mp maps, and most of what Rommel34 said. |
Re: what grinds my gears With the patch coming out and the map maker as well (heres hoping) most of your problems are fixed. |
Re: what grinds my gears id like to see some viecles like tanks but not to many of them i dont want 20 tanks for each side i mean 2 or 3 so altho there is tanks that add to the combat there is still alot of infantry combat becouse when in a server with 20 on 20 not every one is gona get a tank so there will be lots on foot |
Re: what grinds my gears I like COD2 but it has many flaws.Thats why i'm glad I kept COD and COD:UO in.But overall COD2 could be very fun |
Re: what grinds my gears What bothers me most is that bolt action rifles are virtually useless on these ridicuously small MP maps. |
Re: what grinds my gears i agree the maps r too small and the bolt action rifles seem to really suck on mp which( i like realism) is not realistic at all and well..... grinds my gears thanks for ur posts:lookaround: |
Re: what grinds my gears Yet another thing that grinds my gears the stupid cod2 is an "infantry based game" -What?! is not in the infantry that u use tanks?In fact its called the mobile infantry not only that ww2 had the most and the best tank battles of all time battle of kursk ,stalingrad, and operation market garden being some of the more well known ones.So these people are telling me that this is an "infantry based game" and all the tanks ,jeeps ect dont exsist or have a place in cod2 thats total bull! The infantry fought along side tanks.German infantry units in the soviet union fought against hundreds of tanks without any tank support.so the next emo pos that tells me this is an infantry based game i will find u and do a Chuck Norris on u! |

Re: what grinds my gears Well it took my brother and me about one weekend to decide to go back to COD UO. My first impression of COD2 online was very bad. At first sight, it looked as if everyone was running in slow motion! It just went downhill from there. I assume that they will add vehicles in the expansion, which we ALL know is coming. As for the shotguns, all I have to say is it is the stupidest thing I have seen in a WWII FPS game. God I hope to see some mods taking that out of the selection. Lastly let me just say that overall I really did not feel that COD2 was that great of a step from COD and UO. Sure the graphics are tweaked, but nothing revolutionary. Add to what recent games like BF2 and Joint Ops have done, I would like to have at seen at least a couple large maps. |
Re: what grinds my gears 1 word "bugs"...The problems i've had running this game on both my rigs you wouldn't beleive....it's just lazily coded. p.s. off topic but does any one know if CoD2 runs well on the new Athlon x2 processors? coz i just bought one. |
Re: what grinds my gears Bolt Action rifles are perfectly fine, you just know how to play and 'stretch out' the smaller maps. |
Re: what grinds my gears is that the duel processors? if so there is a patch for that... ya know its weird--i had the same feelings as sbn-- then i went and played UO for a night and i was sitting there thinking about cod2 the whole time.. the roller messed me up-- in cod2 you really only use the roller to go from a choice of two weapons-( and on mine i use the roller press for the grenades) i was all over the place! needless to say i was playing cod2 before the night was over. now i play UO for nostalgic reasons every once and again. lots of guys get real disapointed when playing cod2 for the first time or for the first couple weeks or so--- some of the guys out there are very good by now-- its been out for 3 months, and these boys are out for blood and a great score. your noobness only fuels the fire!! i was there- and everybody by definition is a noob when a game comes out, and its very easy to give up on it-and go back to the game you remember so comfortably. this is when you have to beleive in a game--take your licks and learn your lessons--learn the maps-- and take the fight to some guys newer than you!! thats the real revalation-- when you pawn some other guys (it really feels good- i dont have to tell you!!) then your addicted... |
Re: what grinds my gears 1. spawn campers in Mp 2. SP is way to short(i beat it in 2 days) 3. n00b cannons(shotguns) 4. PPSH 5. No flak guns that you can use or panzershreks in MP 6. Mg42 and 30. Cal dont overheat(but on the armoured car escape the cannon does) 7. NO punkbuster or anti-cheat device...ive seen quite few hackers 8. noobs who just stand there in MP 9. SP i always do all the work..i basically get every kill no matter what skill 10. Lindsay Lohan...lmao(family guy) |
Re: what grinds my gears yeah multiplayer suffers from too many aimbot cheaters but hopefully the patch will fix that...i got through the single player on normal in one day the day i bought the game...was a bit dissapointed by the length of the game but hey ho. |
Re: what grinds my gears For some reason the mp40 ,mp 44, Sten, Bren ,and the B.A.R. have the same fire rate which is historically inaccurate!! The MP-40 fired at 500 rpm. The MP-44 had 600rpm i think the Sten was around 450rpm and i dont know the Bar's or the Brens but i know it wasnt the same as any of these guns.That and the blatant omition of the p-38(replacement for the luger that most of the german army had) and the fg42 which was the axis counterpart of the bar really grinds my gears :rolleyes: |
Re: what grinds my gears my rant why does cod 2 put in the panzerII? It was a pre-war tank design and was almost completly replaced by 1940.Its gun is wrong it should have a 20mm autocannon not a slow firing tank gun. The british level where u fight panzer II's was so unrealistic in the afrika campaign they had tigers ,panthers,panzers 3-5,and jadpanzers as well as miles of landmines luftwaffe support and well placed anti-tank guns which terrorified the allies .It baffles me why they added Germany's worst light tank and make it fight a band new british medium tank and why the panzers move so slowly they were only 2kms slower than the Crusader tanks the panzer 2 was a light tank and was not commonly used in russia especially after the t-34's came out and if was used it was always covered by heavier tanks. again the Germans had a wide varitiy of tanks in russia far more effective than the Panzer II but IW decided they were not important and didnt add them.Iw also thought Russian tanks were unimportant and didnt add them On another note the Germans in the ost front bombed russia on a daily basis with artillery ,the luftwaffe, and bombs. Yet another thing Cod2 failed to convey althought they did in cod1 and on Coduo .The russian demolition level where u blow up a buliding full of germans is Historically unlikely because the russians would have needed to plan ahead of time to bomb a buliding so they could have gotten their almost non-existant explosives (remember 1941-42 Germany is winning) together so they could attempt to blow that building it would have been far more accurate to show the germans blowing up a building with russians inside it. Also a timer on the bomb is way too complicated for the soviets during this time it would have been dynamite with a standard visco fuse on it and the bomb is way too clean and perfect the real thing would have looked like a bundle of homless persons rags with a fuse coming out of it why is there a Panzershriek in the last russian level which i believe takes place in 1943 the Panzershriek wasnt invented till 1944 a panzerfaust any variation would have been accurate. Sticky bombs if u know anything about german tanks u know that they were designed so that sticky bombs would not stick to them they were coated with something they were also non-magnetic -free German beer- for first post:beer: |
Re: what grinds my gears gotta agree with the stuff about the tanks...what also kinda annoyed me about that is that number 1 you'd think the only tanks the brits used in the afrika campaign were crusaders i mean they had grants and matildas and all sorts! secondly if you look through the files they have skinned winter tigers for the soviet campaign but not included models and stuff just proves this game was rushed. |
Re: what grinds my gears Quote:
yeah the tanks they put in are really lame save the tiger of course and the russian levels with the sticky bombs should have had the russian antitank rifle instead but hey its nothing that couldnt be easliy changed by the sdk and tools oh and go here http://forums.filefront.com/cod2-modding-mapping-editing/245044-finding-certain-files-russian-chick.html areans 2020 |
Re: what grinds my gears theres an fg42 skin and sound in CoD2? where...we'll have to get model made wen the tools come out. |
Re: what grinds my gears WHERE'S DA PATCH!:mad: |
Re: what grinds my gears Tired of being called a cheat, either by some little kid who's pissed at you becuase you killed him or just because someone doesn't like, people will go around calling people hackers, giving you a bad name, then when you go to spec them 9/10 they're the ones cheating trying to divert attention away from themselves. |
