When they added all these huge ****ing maps to the rotation... maps I detest, no less. The best thing about FFA was that the camping wasn't as bad as other gametypes... but now it's worse. I'm tired of walking into a building only to get blasted by a guy with akimbo 1887's waiting in the corner on Karachi. Since they added these new maps, my K/D has dropped from 2.37 to 2.20. It's pissing me off.
Anyone else not like this decision?

Hmm, I'm finding it alright. I'm using the knifing/sprint class most of the time at the moment to get a reasonable win streak and to just boost my k/d (I'm sad, I know :P) so it's not too bad. I win 99% of the battles I'm in because of how stupid some players are.
But the maps are totally fine with my usual class - ACR w/ Holographic Scope. It's accuracy and range is ridiculous and just running round the map with SoH Pro means I can just instantly aim at people and kill 'em from miles. And I always check houses before I go in - run around it once looking through windows then flashbang it.
I like it. Bit more difference.
I agree. I hate playing FFA in Estate or similar huge maps because it's just not fun. FFA is my most played game mode and I'm really happy when the map is something like Highrise or even Rust, but for the most part it's just not fun when everybody's camping all over the place and a single step could get you killed. Underpass is the worst for this.
FFA was amazing in COD4. Now it frustrates me in MW2. Tooo many campers.
I totally agree, getting filled with bullets as you come around the corner just plain sucks.
Just gonna stick to my Team Deathmatch.
Personally ive had 0 fun playing FFA, I cant help but notice that no matter where i go someone has spawned behind me, its really quite annoying when you shoot a guy and the game pretty much puts him in a perfect spot to immediately respawn and shoot you right in the back.
Its not a matter of people are always camping, its just in FFA you HAVE to or your shot in the back everytime you start moving.
As far as the topic goes, Team Deathmatch is much more fun than FFA. Not sure why, though.
Yeah, the game is unplayable for me when I play anything other than Domination. Just way too many campers. I think it sucks that this is such a problem with the game as it cannot be patched. Imo, Modern Warfare 2 is the game that separates the community just as Halo 2 did. Halo 1 was praised by many many people. When Halo 2 came out, the game was way more team oriented and different that the community split. Modern Warfare 2 is doing the same for me, but this is just one series that I just cannot follow anymore. The maps, modes, and gun balances all cater to a specific audience and playstyle now and it simply is not my own. Oh well :\
" Anybody else think this guy is trying to brag with his k\d ratio? And yeah they did f up ffa, but pretty much the whole game is f up. Since the spawn system is f up in this game. "K/D means nothing to me. You can just create another free acc on PS3 and have a friend use it as you keep killing tht acc in cage match. 20+ kills K/D every 6-8. Also accounts can be hacked and K/D changed so once again means nothing....
welcome to the internet! kill / death rarios - such things have no concession. maybe with friends, but the general public could care less. play modes you like.
and yes people camp because they want to unload kill streaks. if infinity ward made a mode that removed them would you even play it?
Wow i cant understand why so many people complain about campers. I mean i would rather be killed by campers than have respawns in rust and get shot once i take two steps. Thats just my opinion. As i usually can kill campers, as putting close to 60 hours into multiplayer you know the maps and u know to check spots when entering a room. take estate for example campers are notorious for top of the stairs in the house bathroom or on the floor in the bed room so going up there i know to throw a flash bang followed by a gernade and procede in with a shotgun. Then another one on estate is obvisouly above the snowmobile and cars(notorious for snipers), well u get the point. Oh and by the way ffa is all i play as i hate depending on other idiots who cost me wins. The shit that pisses me off is the down right cheaters. The people who take a friend and spawn on the outside of the map and kill eachother till one gets a nuke then the next map they switch and the other gets the nuke, now that is cheating in my book, camping is a cheap tactic but none the less a tactic. jmo

It's a game. Treat it that way.
