Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

Exactly, that's what I was trying to say too. I'm sure other people see the same thing too.

However, most times I die by stupid luck. It's always because I'm without enemies for a while, so I either decide to reload, throw a grenade, or sprint. Any of these three things happens, and someone appears with the sudden advantage. Nothing I can do, and I die.

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

One thing I want for the next COD is select fire on my guns. A M16 on single shot in real life is a good mid range sniper weapon. I would like to be able to do that in the game too.

This isn't a rooftop its like an attic that noone knows about. The other team was looking up right at him but could not see him. I've got to figure out how he got up there.

What map is this on?

There are a lot of people who still don't know that the construction building w/ the turret on Backlot has a basement.

Yeah, I only stumbled upon it a few times.

The thing is, it doesn't do much if no one else goes down there. It's not like an attic where you can be up and look down at everybody else. No one is really visible to you.

Unless you're playing Sabotage and you keep the bomb holed up down there.

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

One thing I have noticed about the kill cam is this. Say I'm running around and I turn a corner and see someone and immediately start shooting. He will somehow get the kill, and then in the kill cam I never fire my weapon, it's as if he somehow has seen me way before I see him and my guy never fires his weapon. Weird.

Yep, I see this happen from time to time as well... figured this was perhaps due to lag, although my connection is usually rock solid. Even more frustrating when in the kill cam I see that I was hit by one bullet in the leg and i'm down for the count instantly. Not sure what's going on there either but it can be frustrating!

It's because of lag. Everything in the game is based off of the hosts' box. While on your screen it looks like you shot before you died, it didn't reach the host before the other guy killed you.

Are you talking about the glitch where you can hop onto the archway overlooking the market or the attic in the house beside it?

The attic.

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

The only 'jump's' i've used are crossfire, the balcony on the wood side, and the roofs on overgrown, and pipeline.

I know a lot of people use them on ambush...there's tons i don't know. I'm only talking legit ones where it's a legit jump and you're not walking on air.

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

So, I just beat Mile High Club on Veteran after about 2 hours of trying. Not bad. I think the only achievements I have left are the 30 intel and shooting all the TVs in Charlie Don't Surf.

The level isn't as bad as people make it out to be on Veteran. One of the reasons is because they usually forget about the extra flash bangs on the second floor of the plane.

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

I haven't played this game much in the past 3 months, just started again and I'm absolutely awful. I was actually middle of the pack after a month or so of everydayish playing, but I suck again. This is the first FPS I've played online so I don't ever expect to be good, but I've reverted back to being terrible.
