Agreed. Damn I hate Atacam Desert right now...
ehh the chopper is too easy to take down if you just give it a bit of attention, with how many tanks there are on that lvl just get 2 tanks shooting at it with the turret and the chopper will be toast, or if your in the main base just get on the aa and you can shoot it down from across the map

Try it on Atacama Desert, with that VADS Anti-Air gun. You know, the giant minigun-looking thing. It Insta-Kills Helicopters...

OT: One Man Army (MW2)
Did nobody at Infinity Ward think of the unlimited ammo noob tube?

Not letting me win. Totally unfair and uncalled for.
I know, right? So annoying when that happens...

OT: Teamwork. It's so unexpected, that it destroys everything before it when a team actually works together. Unfortunately, my lack of microphone prevents me from making use of this tactic.

Come on people, noobtubes are annoying, but using them doesn't automatically make you cheap. They can be quite useful when used for what they're designed for. However, seeing as 90% of people just spam them halfway across the map and use them instead of the gun it's attached to, I admit that IS a shitty, infuriating, pathetic way to play the game.

OT: Team communication, when I seem to have a team thats either made up of retarded mutes or foulmouthed, cynical 10 year olds.

I can't stand spawn killers. That is something that should be fixed some how. The only time I have spawn killed is if they spawn out of my line of sight, then I come around the corner and kill them. They may complain, but I'm not psychic.

I won't ever say that an ability, vehicle, or weapon in a multiplayer game is overpowered or unfair. The game designers liked it and thought it was appropriate to have the things they put in their game so I say anything that they put in the game is fair game and is not bad. I might complain about how my friends are really good with a sniper or a spartan laser in Halo 3 and never miss hitting me with them, but I'm not going to say that the weapons are overpowered, unfair, or should be removed or changed to make them less powerful.

It's complaints like that get awesome playable classes in MMORPGs nerfed to the point that there isn't a point in playing them anymore because the nerfing made the classes lose what was appropriate to make those classes what they were. The only reason companies do that is because they get tired of people whining and are afraid to lose their money that they are getting from the whiners, not because it is the right thing to do. (Not that I have had complaints about this from experience, it's from what I here from friends.)

Back on topic: I can't stand it when people complain about how a game isn't realistic enough but then they turn around and also complain about one hit kill explosives i.e. rockets. Which do you want people? You can't have realism if a highly explosive rocket at your feet can't kill you in one shot. Because if it happened in real life you would be dead or if you were unlucky enough to survive the explosion, you would be missing both your legs, be in painful agony and shock, and wouldn't be able to act or fire a gun at anybody....so dead.

Well, abusing glitches and bugs is pretty bad. One that I really hate is a glitch in SSBB that converts Sheik's chain into the last move she used. Use the OHK home run bat and then use the chain. Every time the dainty chain touches, its a smack out of the park. That and Edgehogging. Not allowing someone to return to the fight is a low blow. Send them off with a bang, ffs.

The worst thing, I suppose, would have to be tricks that remove ending lag or start up lag for an attack. Super weapons are usually coupled with some sort of weakness to allow retaliation, like a quick shot, but then four second charge up time. In CS:S, shooting the AWP and quickly swapping weapons to remove most of the lag allows for cheap 1v1 fights.

The hyper-accurate LMGs tend to bother me quite a bit in BC2... It somehow feels that such a weapon shouldn't out-range a sniper rifle... but oh well, I digress.

Also, did anyone ever play C&C: Renegade? Remember the superweapons?

There's allot of things in CoD that made me rage but now it has to be getting 720ed by a Tager in Blazblue.

I just drop my controller and rage a bit.

4 Heavies, 4 Medics with ubercharges, one screwed other team = over-powered. That or a giant rush at the enemy base when they're not paying attention.

I'd have to say that the most unfair tactic in any game would be the nuke in MW2. Honestly, how in the hell do you string 25 fing kills together??????
