Re: What's a good alternative to CoD (on PS3)?

I hate the lack of balance in MW2 and MW3. Thankfully they removed killstreaks and instead you get scorestreaks and they make the game MUCH more balanced.

I've been playing a few MW2 matches here and there when I'm not playing Dark Souls.
Although I'm not really feeling the maps in MW2.

Can you guys recommend another CoD? Which one has better maps?

For single or multiplayer?

My favorite is actually the first CoD. Pavlov is one of my favorite multiplayer maps ever made, and in the single player missions, crossing the Volga River is one of the most memorable scenes of any FPS I have ever played.

Spawn tubing in a game of search & destroy in mw2 and getting a quad kill is the greatest thing ever.

In black ops they made noob tubes non explosive for 15 seconds after the match starts. It was an even better feeling to get direct impact kills and have the warning "grenade launchers not lethal for another ? seconds" pop up on screen.

I love griefing people in online games. I am mostly playing Battlefield 3 lately and just wish there was more sure fire ways to piss people off. All that really gets people going is killing them with the mav and that thing sucks to control.

Can you not kill people in BF3 by dropping supply crates on top of them or rigging fast vehicles with C4, driving them into crowds, and detonating them?

I played a MW2 match last night and the final killcam was a grenade launched square into some guy's face. :lol:

No to the supply crates. For c4 the phrase you are looking for is jihad Jeep, and it really is only useful for taking out enemy armor. That did just remind me of a great trolling method that helped me get a 46 killstreak, tossing c4 out of the upper floors of a building at a bottle neck.

Heh that killstreak was amazingly hilarious, I didn't get revived once and was never in a vehicle so it was full on my skill. I was basically hanging out in a building that has a view of 3 of the 4 flags on a map with my trusty full on rambo m60 just mowing people down. After about 20 kills the enemy team all switched to medics with noob tubes and started blasting where I was. By this time some random sniper decided to take up residence next to me and lowered the property value so I decided to move. Him being there also made it so everyone with noob tubes was getting hit markers so they were distracted trying to kill the new building tenant that they thought was me. So where do I decide to go? Right where they are. I ended up taking out 2 squads by myself and realized no one else on my team was near so I got the hell out of the flag area before they could respawn on top of me. Then I hid in another building just giggling to myself since I was 31-0 at the time. That's when I started dropping c4 out the window and boy did that piss people off because the building I was in got crowded with more angry big people then a clearance sale at Lane Bryant. I am not a smart man but I know when I'm not alone so I set down some c4 on the stairs and I got out of the kill zone and two people come around the corner. Multi kill 5 people. I drop more c4 and go up a flight. Another multi kill. I try to drop more c4 but didn't realize I was out as a lone medic revives everyone. Needless to say I got my first death of the match in the top floor of that building, but watching as about 8 people tea bagged my body was priceless.

Tl;dr my greatest killstreak ever

Huh, I was unaware they had a name for that tactic. I remember doing that in the Battlefield 2 demo, but I haven't played much BF3. But I'm sure there has to be a good way to grief people.

Oh, you know what you should practice? Flying planes upside down and seeing if you can pop people with the tailfin. Fastbilly used to do that, along with some other friends of ours. Or you should get your buddies to steal vehicles and then have a roller derby in some far off corner of the map that nobody cares about.
