Players Love to Hate on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Posted by admin on 04/10/2010 | 0 Comments
Gamers over the years have progressed from adults and teenagers playing Atari and games at the local arcade to staying at home and playing their Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 at all hours of the night. You can find all ages of people playing these games and while you will find some respectful, fun people to play with, there are always those jerks out there who players have come to vilify on a regular basis. Here’s a quick rundown of the players you’ll find on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.M
- The Yeller: In the chat lobby, this person decides to start yelling into their mic at all times. Usually, they are 10 year old kids screaming to their mom about getting milk brought to them. Other times, it’s two friends in the same lobby trying to appear cool and yell insults at every one. Once the game starts it just gets worse. If they make a kill, you know about and how sweet their “headshot” was. More often than not though, they are getting killed and regularly yell about how that was such a bull shit shot. The yeller doesn’t know any better, but that’s probably because he doesn’t know who his father is.
- The Complainer: Much like the yeller, this guy takes every opportunity to talk about how shitty his teammates are, how bad the game is, and how bad his life is. Most people take the opportunity to mute this guy about 2 minutes in, but I think everyone should always listen to them for the sake of your enjoyment. This gamer is usually near the bottom of the list in Kill to death ratios, unskilled, and probably just masturbated and is about to. While it’s always better to have the complainer on the other team, I highly recommend shooting this guy a friend request, before he shoots something else.
- The Sniper: In most scenarios in Modern Warfare 2, sniping is almost unnecessary and entirely boring. Since most game features require some type of objective besides killing your enemy, teammates are often frustrated by watching their teammate sit idly by zoomed in to a 2 foot spot while an opponent tea bags them and then mercifully knife them in their head. Most of these guys end with a terrible low score total, don’t assist in helping a team win, and are just horrible players to play with. Lastly, the sniper is usually a 40 year old man with an all too slow reaction time to actually run in and try to kill someone with an assault rifle of any kind.
- The Noob Tuber/Rocket Launcher/Javelin Ass hole: Most of the time, bullets and thrown grenades are what most players use to kill their enemy, but sometimes, it takes a special type of asshole to run around and kill people wildly without aiming with a rocket launcher. Sure, this style of gamer is usually 200 yards away without a clue where you are, but boy howdy, if you get anywhere near where it lands, say goodbye to your hard earned killstreak. Sure the noob tuber works fine (except for when it bounces harmlessly off the ground), but that rocket launcher destroys any person within a 20 foot radius and says to the gaming Gods, actual gaming skills be damned.
- The foreigner: In general, most of the gamers who play MW2 are playing in the U.S.A. with their friends or colleagues. However, once in a blue moon, you’ll get stuck with a group of foreigners. Usually, they are French, and the French know what you’re saying but talk needlessly in their own language. Sure you could enjoy muting them, but most gamers yell into their mics and try to get them to shut up. So not only do you have foreigners chatting, you’ve not brought “The Yeller” & “The Complainer” back into the mix. It’s at this point in the game where I back out, load another round up and pray to God I’m not about to get sniped by some asshole on Estate.
- The Serious Gamer: This guy, while usually an average player, always yells at his teammates for not capturing a flag, getting killed while reloading, or losing a kill on last stand to a teammate. This poor guy spends his days working at Blockbuster or Gamestop just waiting to get off so he can spend his nights with his “online friends” and yell at them until they sign off in tribute to this bastard tiring them out. This guy has studied online guides, tips, and youtube videos for hours so he can figure out strategies and hope to outthink random people. It doesn’t work, ever.
- Hackers/Glitchers: While you see few hackers on console games these days, glitchers are ever prevalent and ruin just about every round. A few months into the game, the Javelin glitch had guys running Kamikaze style into groups of people and getting 3-4 kills at a time while they could do nothing. These guys love to piss people off with their style of play and laugh in the face of people who report them and lower their gamer score. While most players wish to rain scat on their heads, Infinity Ward and Xbox as a whole have yet to do anything to paying customers who bend the rules.
While most people would consider noobs to be a part of this list, I do not. I love playing against these guys because of their low skill level, ease of death, and just overall goofiness of these guys running around with a cooked grenade and trying to shoot at the same time
