Yet Another MW2 Thread : Quickscopers

[Frozen Donkey Wheel2]

Guys.


Can we please stop talking about MW2.

I mean, for a website full of people who hate the game, it seems that all of you are still playing it.

The main probly with no scopers is that its scrubby, you get people like me for one who use smg's i would say most of the time with assualt rifles, of course i use snipers as well. But there is nothing than when you are using a sniper, scoped in hit someone and it clips them, then your running around with an smg and some scrub lucks a shot that drops you in one, usually after you have put a good 5 or so bullets in them (didnt want to over exaggerate and get brought up on that as well)

No one good goes for no-scopes for anything other than last-ditch-effort type of things before they die to an SMG or Commandotard. Quick scopes are easily the hardest thing to pull off in a game that is otherwise ridiculously simple and noob-friendly. Yes, there is a little luck involved, but to say that quick-scopers are "scrubs" when you use SMGs (and I'm assuming the UMP45 because that's what everyone uses) is pretty ass-backwards. The UMP is a sniper rifle that fires full auto and can be sprayed. If anything, it's the UMP users who are the "scrubs", although I wouldn't go that far. At least you aren't using Shotguns, Commando, or Noob Tubes.

I just put these people with the rest of the cliche 'cool guy' tactics, then stomp them by simply being good.

Well personally I do quick scope, It's one of 7 classes I have for all different gameplay styles to keep MW2 interesting, don't see why it is such an issue, if anything it is harder to accomplish than normal sniping.

One game I managed to win our team with 31-0 K/D, using the Intervention and with no camping! Honestly if that is not skill, I do not know what is!

In all seriousness, I think something is only 'noobie' if there is no possible way the enemy player could have counteracted it. In which case, noobtubes and possibly shotguns are the only entities I could consider noobie in any way. Both harscoping and quickscoping are certainly not noobie.

 

[Shemming]

I beleive people will moan at anything of it kills them i received hate messages from the same person for quick scoping, hard sniping and knifeing without commando.

 

[BadassCyborg]

Just to clarify it's more the type of person that quick-scoping attracts (arrogant loudmouthed kids who take the game too seriously) more than the act that bothers me. I guess it's because the game is so popular it is flooded with arseholes who wouldn't usually game.

(and I'm assuming the UMP45 because that's what everyone uses)

This made me chuckle a little inside. I love seeing players with the titles and badges for the UMP45, Intervention and ACR. I feel like "yes, we know you've used those alot, so does everyone else"

 

[Judgement101]

Its the same as camping, spawn killing, and noob tubing. Annoying as hell to the person its happening to but acceptable to the person doing it.

 

[furry-ryuu-ken]

I SUCK at sniping but can quick scope pretty good.

 

[Kukakkau]

Simple - quickscoping when done properly is an abuse of the game mechanics since it uses the aim assist of hip fire and combines it with the pinpoint accuracy of the scope. So you don't even have to have your target dead center and the bullet will still hit them

Main point really is that CoD sniping which used to be about positioning and long shots is dead and replaced with running around up close hoping the one hit kill gun hits.

Biggest hope for the new CoD is that they make the sniper only one hit kill with a headshot

As mentioned previously, no respect for dev lazyness and stupidity. Though, nothing against people who use it.

 

[WanderingFool]

Because that's not how you use a sniper rifle. Granted it's not the player's fault, they're playing with the hand they're dealt, developers are the ones that need to make sure this can't be done (unless we're talking about something like Unreal Tournament).

But anyway, I mostly play Bad Company 2 nowadays, so I don't have to deal with this.

I dont play MW2 ever since Bad Company 2 came out. I find that there are so many cheap tactics in MW2, I end up with a 1:3 kill/death ratio every game. I all but gave up on MW2 before reach level 60... with no prestige. I really dont see why they even included the sniper in MP...

 

[Kud]

People will ***** about anything as long as they are losing, just move on and keep playing however you like.

 

[Armored Prayer]

While I'm not fond of it, I have no hate for the players that use it. (Though they are a bit irritating)

But I must admit they are fun to watch on Youtube. There was this 10 ten MW2 kills series and most of them were some crazy quickscopes.

 

[infinity_turtles]

The main probly with no scopers is that its scrubby

Right, I don't really care about the whole debate, but I don't like people calling things scrubby when they're the ones being scrubby. Scrubs are the ones who complain about what people do and want them to play with their own made-up not part of the game rules. Anything that can be done in the game without using hacks isn't scrubby. You can say it's lame, stupid, and not-fun, and maybe it is, but it's not scrubby. [/rant]

 

[VanityGirl]

I have a bigger problem with modders. I saw a guy who admitted to having the "wall glitch" he could basically see you as a red dot THROUGH walls. It was crazy. It made me a sad panda.

 

[-Samurai-]

I respect them. It takes skill to do that.

Since when does it take skill to exploit a broken feature of a game? That broken feature being auto-aim. Yeah, they're so skillful when the game aims for them. All they have to do is pull the trigger. Mhmm. Skill.

"Quickscoping" isn't a physical possibility in MW2. There are nothing but wanna-bes. Try it without auto-aim. Oh wait, you can't, because you can't turn auto-aim off, and even if you could, you wouldn't because your entire "strategy" depends on having a game aim for you.

Try it without sleight of hand pro. You can't.

If you can't do it without those 2 things, you can't do it.

If you wanna see real quickscoping, go play CoD(1). That's where the real skill is.

 

[spartan231490]

It doesn't bother me all that much, I think that it should be somehow pulled out of the game like a glitch. I'm not one of those guys that wants everything ingame to be realistic, but quickscoping isn't just unrealistic, it's impossible, and greatly increases the viability of the sniper, unbalancing the game. That said, it's a shit-ton better than noob-tubing, or tac-knifing, so I dont ***** about getting quickscoped. You can be almost as cheap just normal sniping with an ebar cuz it's rate of fire is so high.

 

[Actual]

Surely it's a glitch? There's no way the rifle is that accurate without aiming.

It feels like they're exploiting a design flaw.

 

[Danny Ocean]

What is so bad about quickscopers, people hate us as much as they hate noobtubers!

I mean really, you're comparing the lowest skill to largest reward strategy (tubing) to the highest skill to least reward strategy, what is so bad about quickscoping?

It's the same reward, isn't it?
