Sounds like you're a CQB kind of guy - wrong gun for the map?

Hopefully someobdy can help me with this. I'm new to PS3 (only had mine for a few weeks) but every once in a while when I'm playing, all of a sudden my TV will say "format not recognized" and video/audio will disconnect between the PS3 and the TV (I'm using HDMI cables). It happened yesterday in the middle of a COD game. Normally when this happens I reboot the PS3 and I'm good to go again, but last night it still didn't work after a couple of reboots.

Anybody have this before? I'm trying to figure out if it's a PS3, TV or cable issue.

Haven't played Rust yet. They must have added it to the rotation recently.

I don't like a lot of the maps for MW2, I like the MW1 maps a lot more. There are some good maps in MW2, but there are so many terrible ones as well.

I've played Rust plenty of times. It used to be strictly a FFA map, but I've heard that they opened it up to other game types recently.

Finally played Rust in a FFA. Horrible map, unless you like a total kill/deathfest. Reminds me of the old Killhouse map. And I like CQB!

So how many stars does everyone have in Spec Ops? Me and my friend have gotten up to 44/69, and tomorrow we should be able to get to 53/69. (all Veteran)

Some of them are brutally tough.

Not a big fan of most of the game, spec-ops is the most fun and redeeming feature though!

I've only done the first two missions on vetran so far so 6 stars.

Anyone else notice a lot of cheaters out there? Saw one guy using an aim bot and everyone on the server knew it. Seems like some people have wall hacks as well but thats a bit harder to tell with all the UAV/radar perks/attachments.

Pretty brutal. They already have a patch ready though, they're just waiting on Microsoft to approve it, then it'll be in effect.

It's like extreme martyrdom. Basically when you die, it simulates the explosion from the Javelin, which is pretty big, and takes out anyone near you.



If you get reported doing it on XBL, apparently they will ban you for 24 hours. On PSN and PC, i don't think anyone cares.

So what? If you have a javelin and semtex/throwing knife equipped and you get shot, you have a kind of super martyrdom?

No, if you youtube "Javelin MW2 glitch" there is a tutorial on how to do it. I think you need to hold rb (cooking a grenade), then shift back to the javelin, then let go of RB. It simulates like martyrdom, but if you knife some you have to re-do the glitch for the explosion to go off.

It should be fixed this week.

Hmm. I'm not that excited about cheating my way through. Sure I suck but that just makes kills a little sweeter is all. I haven't seen that at all in any of the online stuff I've played. I can't understand why people feel the need to use souped-up controllers (like a buddy of mine) or aim-bots, or use those glitches and stuff. It's only a video game...why do you feel the need to cheat to win?

I don't think there are aim-bots on the 360 version, and the Javelin glitch will soon be gone. And the Javelin glitch is 99% only in Domination matches, nothing else.

The game would be better without the Heartbeat sensors on the guns. The only defense (that I know of) against this is the use of the ninja perk. I feel I need to use the Heartbeat sensor or I'm at a big disadvantage.

Overall I think they should lower the effectiveness of all the perks. It makes the game play a bit too crazy.

Saying all that I'm still addicted to it.
