I'm a gamer but too cheap to pay for xbox live. So instead when I want to do my online gaming, its snes emulators with other cheap friends.

I think you added me BullDog but I rarely if ever play on 360. Let me know if you want to go sometime on 360.

Yeah, I spoke with your roomate briefly. Next time I'm on I'll try to get a hold of you.

Alright, I may and try to get on later this evening. I get done with my last class here at 2:00 and then have about 4 hours of community serivice hours. So, I should be on around 7ish central time. This is going to be a bastard making the switch from the PS3 remote to the 360 lol. I first started playing COD4 on 360 and when I started playing it on PS3, the switch over was very hard for me lol. Don't be surprised if I throw a grenade when I am in fact trying to shoot haha.

LOL! Had the same problem playing with a cousin of mine. Diehard PS3 fan, and all we ever do is play COD4 at his place. Took me a while to catch on, and he was flat out owning my ass until 20 minutes later when I started to get my swagger on. BTW, he's in his 6 or 7th Prestige. As for me, I'm just a 53 in the first trial. Can't say things went the same for him when we switched to the 360...

I'll be playing later tonight myself. More than likely with my clan. If anyone is interested in getting a match, with a beating attached, send an invite.

[VR43000GT]

So for those of you who play COD4, what is your kill to death ratio? Mine is currently 1.37, however, I play on my account about 80% of the time, the rest is people who come over to visit and play it. Which, does bring it down some.

[VR43000GT]

Well, I don't know how it happend, but some Asian clan (or so I would assume) has managed to cheat online in COD4. It was the players Nu-Chi, Fu-Chi__Ryan, FOXYeleven (or something like that), and some other crazy name. I heard some of my teamates say that they weren't able to kill the fuckers. So I finally came across one of them and shot him in the back from about 5 feet away with a M16 and he didn't die! He turned around and killed me! I was like WTF!? On shot, two MAX from that far away and in the back with a M16 is death. So I encountered some other players in the clan. Did the same thing, I would sneak up on them and shoot them countless times as they would take their sweet ass time turning around, and then kill me. So I busted out the semi-auto shotgun and started getting some kills on them. However, I found that it took me a bare minimum of two shots to the upper body or head with the shotgun from close distance to kill them. Generally it was 3 or 4. I finally got fed up with going 14 and 20 that I left the game room. Everyone on my team (all people I don't know except for one of them) was furious. They weren't even all that good, but they were next to impossible to kill. And for those of you about to question whether or not they had Juggernaut on, that was not it. I have played with that myself and have played agianst people who have had it. This was like Juggernaut x 8. Has anyone ever heard of this?

Edit: I just did a Google search and found out that some people use a lag switch. (If anyone on here has done that you are weaksauce, if you want to shoot a still object, go stand in front of a building). I am not sure if this is what they were doing, but when I unload a M16 clip into someone's back from 5 feet away and they don't die, something is up. I maybe get less kills than deaths 1 our of every 10 games (though sometimes it can be more if I'm on an off-day lol), and everyone of those games I got destroyed. And like I said, they weren't even all that good.

I have no idea what any of that means. All I know is that once I get unlazy and get Xbox live, I'll own all you bastards in Ace Combat...

[Sleepr awd]

I have no Internet gaming capabilities until the galant is running ( I grounded myself) I will come back for vegas when it comes out and to kick cassies ass at ace combat.

I have experienced similar issues on COD4 with level 10 prestige guys who you know cheated the entire rank. People without decent ping times should be kicked off until they can get those times down.

[CivRacer95]

Meh, cheaters will always be about. No matter what any company does to try and stop cheating, there will always be someone(s) out there to try and cheat. Can't be helped because some kids can't take the time to learn how to point a virtual gun at someone to shoot them.

My only beef really is latency. For example: you find an opponent running by you, shoot him in the back several times, but his teammate shoots you while standing next to you. As you watch the death replay, it shows you only shot one bullet or didn't shoot at all. But you know damn well you unloaded a clip, and didn't get jack shit for the effort. Those are my only issues.

BTW, M16 w/ ACOG scope with stopping power and deep impact FTW!!!

[Sleepr awd]

just about everyone I know online (lots of higher level guys) call the M16 a "noob weapon" Granted tehy aren't above using it if it is used on them, but tehre seems to be a fair amount of lag associated with the 3 shot burst as opposed to others.

And I definitly don't like the LAG compensation system they are using like in HALO3 They are just trying to even the playing field so the right people get the right kills, and it is annoying. Stupid nonsense.

EXACTLY! There are times when I have fired off to bursts and when it shows the deathcam it shows me barely even getting off part of one burst. I guess all the "pros" can call the M16 a noob weapon, I don't see why. Maybe because it's not the ALMIGHTY P90. They can say what they want, but most people who are a higher "rank" (AKA more time on COD4, not by any means better) can tell me that when they are laying on the ground trying their last stand after being shot down with the M16.

Which is funny, because, according to a close friend of mine in the 20th SFG, those are two concepts that should never be used in conjunction.

[Sleepr awd]

... I don't know who you think I play with, but I can assure you, "bitch moves" are not employed. We kill straight up with whatever gun isn't a M16 or P90. More often than not it's a Kalashnikov rifle (of sorts), any other assault rifle, Sniper (of sorts), sometimes a shotgun. We don't use last stand, rarely use martyrdom, absolutely no Juggernaut. They aren't pro's either, just bored old men. People that can affect the outcome of the game after they've already DIED piss me off, IE martyrdom, Last stand, and Juggernaut. Come to think of it, if you guys played with me, you wouldn't talk to me anymore. i'm kinda mean.

[BullDog71ss]

I don't really care what weapons people use, so long as they actually work with their teamates and try to complete the goals of whatever style game they are playing.

My favorite setup is an M4, noob tube, stopping power and marty (because I play a lot of HQ)
