They aren't banning Russian keys afaik, but you are using it illegally so don't be surprised if they do ban it one day. Russian version is strictly to be sold only in Russia and Baltic states.

Haha, I love it when you say he's purchasing a game illigally.
What you meant to say is;
"IWnet does not like that you buy a game for a reduced price, but can't do anything about it if you and the selling partner are both within an EU region. IWNet can however claim that what you are doing by buying from outside of an EU country is very immoral and offensive and will therefor ban your ass."

If I go to Russia on a holiday and buy the game there then go back to beautiful Sweden, will the CIA, DEA, FBI, SAS, Interpol and Local Police take away my copy of whatever I bought? I don't think so...

Illegal? Not this crap again.

Whoever distributes the game in Russia would have a contract with sellers in Russia to only sell to Russians. If they caught one of those sellers ignoring that contract they could do something about it. Now if some random party comes along and buys a tonne of games off a seller and offers keys online nothing can be done. The goods could very well have a no resale clause of some kind but I don't have any understanding of Russian consumer law to go into that. If anyone is breaking a law it's the seller not the buyer.

That said those in charge could easily block retail Russian keys being used in other countries as has been done before.

The knife-ninja is my second favourite class, right after my Akimbo 1887 shotties. I've literally lost count of the amount of times I've been called a hacker over the last two days - those shotguns are massively overpowered. Individually, they're shit - but twinned? Holy FUCK. Here's a paraphrased range of comments my mates and I (GamRR) have received so far;

Quote:

GamRR fucking shotgun-noobs!

Quote:

I kill-cam'ed them and they're definitely hackers!!

Quote:

Fuck you noobs, all you can do is win with shotguns!

Quote:

Nice hax mate, why don't you play with them turned off for once??

Quote:

Fuck you! I shot you! No fucking way you got that kill!

Quote:

Always using the same weapon. Use something else!

Quote:

I hope for your sake that IW nerf those fucking shotguns soon, this is bullshit!




And the best one;

[quote]
I recorded them through killcam and I made a complaint about them.

Gah, quote-fail >_<

But I see how they could say that. Today we had a few annoying people like that, and I was amazed how far the knife can get. He was running at me, and I thought surely I was gonna get him, but he bent space time continuum and knifed me from like 10 feet. It is especially annoying on smaller maps like skidrow. Those back alley spots are perfect for that. Every time I could see the dude and shoot him several times, but it was no use since it was not HC. But luckily there are HC servers where people dont run like chickens with no heads, and it doesnt take a magazine to kill someone. I only wish HC would support ground wars as I really like 9 vs 9. Some maps like trainyard or wastelands feel very empty with 12 people, especially on HC where people are afraid to move.

And anyone else getting pretty bad lags today. I have 4 bars constantly but there is a slight rubberbanding, and very noticeable microlag. And when it went down to 3 bars, I had to quit because there was some serious rubber banding and people were warping.

Commando Pro gives greater knife range by making you lunge forward when you strike, rather than just swiping.

You really can't win in this game (same with any online shooter, to be honest) I got SO much shit from using my ninja class (Magnum+TacKnife, Lightweight/Marathon/Commando) that I switched to solely using my ACR and, at the time, single 1887 lever-action. Now I have akimbo on my 1887s, I'm getting shit again.

Pfeh. To semi-quote someone else; I love making bitches like that nerdrage and quit the game.

Personally I think sniping is insanely unfair in this. There's no penalty whatsoever, you can hide anywhere, view the entire map, pick people off in 1 or 2 hits without them even seeing you - but you don't hear me screaming about taking sniper rifles out, or nerfing them, so why people bitch about shotguns (which I used in MW1 too) or knives is just beyond me. As far as I'm concerned, the only truly game-breaking shit is dolphin dives and excessive 'nade spamming.

And it's not often you see people less than 100 ping without dedis.

People like to shout "Hacker!". Half the times I get nukes, everyone on the opposite team calls me a hacker. It's not until I actually deploy the nuke though. Neutral

It's been getting worse lately Sad At the start it was great, mostly, but now the lag is getting considerably worse AND it often takes me up to 5mins just to get into a game. So much bullshit with "host migration", "lobby closed" and "server" full - it's pathetic.

I never once praised IWNet, not even at the start, but my god it's truly failing lately.

I'd like to go up against you, actually. I've seen your scores and I must admit, my internet disbelief kicks in Very Happy Very Happy I'd love to see what you actually play like ^_^

At least Sad It's a LOT worse in a party as well. 6 times out of every 10 someone will get dropped by IWNet. If there's 3 of us in the party, the matching service will only put 2 of us in the game and then boot the other with some random bullshit about "game lobby closed" or "server is full"

I have to admit, most of the times I get a nuke is mostly luck. Just get to 6 kills and get my harrier, let it kill 4 people so I can get a chopper gunner out, and then 14 kills with that is usually no problem.

Still though, it's hilarious when people say I hack with the chopper gunner just cause people don't shoot it down and let me kill their whole team multiple times.

I did, after seeing your shots actually!, switch my perk loadout to Harrier/Gunner/Nuke .. but, just my luck, I never seemed to get 25. I generally get to around 23 before some fucker shoots my chopper down and knifes me while I'm stuck in the lappy Very Happy I changed back to Pred/Harrier/Gunner and guess what? 37 KS >_<

Damn my luck!

Aye! I know a lot of people, mostly seasoned pros from MW1, complain about MW2 - but I reckon is GREAT fun. tons of bullshit, as always, but mostly fun. If only we had dedicated servers, it would be epic.

Wait, you are talking about snipers being unfair? Unfair that they are useless; than yes I agree. I am level 31 and I have NEVER seen a sniper dominate anything (or even have a decent score). The maps are so small, there are really no good spots to comfortably lay down and wait for an opportunity . The only exception would be wasteland and trainyard, but I only saw moderate success from snipers there because in this game weapons are really accurate and put some ACOG or thermal and its a lot better than a sniper rifle since you can defend yourself if somebody gets close by.
I like sniping in general and had success in MW1, but here I tried it a few times, and it just seemed like it doesnt belong in this run and gun game.

Snipers are actually good in this game, that if u know some tactics. Well they actually made sniper rifles a non-camper weapon. So basically u must shoot and move. One kill new location and so on works perfect and gives a good score. With the "intervention" is a bit tricky because of long reloading seeing it is a bolt action weapon. But it works. With fast aim is even easier.U just need to know the layout pretty good. Also u must know on which part of map enemies are spawned. Give it a try and develop your own movement patterns. Shoot... move shoot move. I encourage using a smg as second weapon for better def while relocating.
I also enjoy very much area camping, i have lots o patience and can wait. There are areas on maps which enemies are using gradually more than others. and they also have a vantage point were a sniper could stay and kill some.

Try it out and remember have fun

GET SOME !

The run around with the tac-knife thingy is insane, on some maps which are very crowded all you do is keep getting kills by just running around like a tard.
The akimbo shotty's are only good in close to mid range....and since I can be a moron I try to snipe with them and fail, miserably. >.<

Ohh, and I've been called a wallhacker so far. o.O
Mostly cause I got a pair of new headphones and I can hear EVERYTHING compared to what I heard on my 5.1 speakers. Surprised

Btw, are you guys playing arcade mode or hardcore mode?
I've totally given up on arcade cause I think it looks like a big poo, but in hardcore mode it's way harder getting kills due to the constant camping from everyone, so going around the map is much more of a hazard than it normally would be.

I love how people whine (just came back from another whineathon where I kicked ass with my 1887s) about the range on the lever-action shotties. It's hilarious! They seem to forget that the average lethal range for these sort of guns is around 25-30ft. Shit, if anything they're GIMPED in the game Laughing
