Have about 10 or so members so far, actively smoking the crack that is MW2, would be glad to have more. Bump!

Have only had one problem with the host-migration so far. Got a kill-streak of 5 and went to launch the Predator missile on some hapless fool. Missile fires and I track it to land on a guy's head, however - host migrates mid-flight - reconnects with new host and starts the 5-second countdown to resume - except my bloody missile keeps falling (without any control) and explodes on the guy while the game was still paused. No kill. Bastards.

I just use [TPU], but it is open to be changed, if the team deems it so.

I would be more worried about the fact that the missile was bleeding. This host migration must be stopped!

I have a question. It seems to be assumed that PC(keyboard-mouse)>console controller when it comes to FPSs like MW2.
But has this been demonstrated? I would love to see a bi-annual match between the best of both camps - playing on the same server. Or has this been done?

It has been done, though nothing spectacular. The mouse is far superior to any gamepad, I have seen it several times.

I remember halo on the pc, one guy using a gamepad, other the mouse/keyboard, hang em high.

Game 1:
mouse: 25
Controller: 5

Game 2: (dont quite remember if these were the exact numbers, but this game they swapped peripherals)
mouse: 25
Controller: 9

I played a few games with 3 or 4 other [TPU] members. We not been aranging no times or owt we just use steam to see what other members are playing at same time & then invite to join in a match together.

I not seen any blatant cheating. Although i have seen people at level 70 prestige 10 ! There is a leveling up hack for MW2.

i think i would only buy it if i were to join a serious group of gamers who would want to play together several times per week and get pretty good at it. imo, that is the only way to play online games.

So ... the banhammer has been dropped on the MW2 world. 2500 accounts got banned today for cheating at Modern Warfare 2.

My question: how many of you have come across cheating so far? I have, but just once. And only briefly: I dropped into a game-in-progress only to have someone in the opposition drop the nuke. Problem is, their top-scorer had only 10 kills. Game over, but as it went to the lobby the host migrated. Next game was only about 30 seconds in when I got killed by a guy with an aimbot. But then the game lasted only about 30 seconds more, before the host-migrated again and we ended in a game without any cheats.
So I would say the system appears to work okay. Not perfect, but not as bad as people had been predicting.

Very true. And at the end of the day, if a cheater is so subtle that it doesn't adversely affect other users' experience, then it doesn't matter too much.

I've found the biggest effect on my playing experience is how I'm feeling at the time. Sometimes I have off days when I just can't get a shot on target. Some days I'm on fire (relatively, of course - I'm not very good at the best of times). I tried to play the other day when I was badly hungover - I might as well have just pointed the gun at myself, I was that bad.

I knew it. You'll use any excuse to play the game. Resistance is futile.
