Can you achieve level 70 without a single kill?

Posted by herald On August - 28 - 2010

Can anyone achieve a lofty goal in Modern Warfare 2 without gunning, stabbing or air-striking. Gamer Glen McCracken is attempting to do it. He tries to achieve level 70 without skill.

One of the gaming websites tracked PS3 gamer with name Mr_No_kills.

Glen said when asked why he has endeavored for such a noble pursuit, “I’ve already hit Prestige five times. I thought it would be something interesting to do. It definitely gives you a different perspective on the game, and it’s fun and challenging.”

May be McCracken followed a Gandhi-like stance.

McCracken became a hit in Domination and Demolition modes. His only goal in it was to earn experience points by only securing flags and blowing objectives.

According to McCracken, he may take about two months to reach the target level. Currently he is at eleventh level without any kill.

Glitch was found in Modern Warfare 2

Posted by herald On August - 15 - 2010

Recently a glitch was discovered in Modern Warfare 2 and this was frustrating too for the Xbox Live developers.

It was discovered that the paid content was being unloced without making any payment.

Yes.

It use to unlock the full versions of 5 SNK Playmore games, though it was only accidently. The five unlocked games were King of Fighters ‘98 Ultimate Match, Garou Mark of the Wolves, Metal Slug 3, Samurai Shodown II and Metal Slug XX.

How it works?

First gamers need to have the demo of the game installed that they want to unlock. After doing this, they need to simply launch the demo while the Modern Warfare 2 is loaded. After doing this, the full game will start.

Well, if the gamers wanted to start any of the games, they need to do it from the usual dashboard only.

Valve unbans MW2 on its platform, gives free Left 4 Dead 2

Posted by herald On July - 28 - 2010

Twelve thousand gamers were banned by accident from playing Modern Warfare 2 via the anti-cheat system. This was done by Valve through its online gaming platform. Steam determined that many gamers were cheating the company. However, after investigation there were no evidence found of such activities.

Now, the company has lifted the ban and has also apologized for the mix up.

Valve is an online gaming platform which has many other war games for gamers apart from Modern Warfare 2.

Valve head honcho, Gabe Newell, explained the issue in his apology. He said, “The problem was that Steam would fail a signature check between the disk version of a DLL and a latent memory version.

This was caused by a combination of conditions occurring while Steam was updating the disk image of a game. This wasn’t a game-specific mistake. Steam allows us to manage and reverse these erroneous bans (about 12,000 erroneous bans over two weeks.”

To make up the mistake, the company is handing out Left 4 Dead 2 for free to all those MW2 gamers whe were inadvertently banned.

Well, it is still bad for those gamers who own Modern Warfare 2 as well as Left 4 Dead 2.

Is Resurgence Pack worth $15

Posted by herald On June - 13 - 2010

The Resurgence Pack seems lot similar to its predecessor. Out of five maps, three are brand new and so for $15 it is pretty hefty.

It seems that the selection of the pack feels more interesting than the first piece of downloadable content of the game.

The two old maps are from the 2007’s Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.

Well, the uniqueness of each map is more intriguing such as the one highlighted by Carnival or a multiplayer fun house that is set in an abandoned amusement park.

As a whole, the Resurgence Pack gets the edge over Stimulus Package. The main credit goes to a more diverse set of environments.

One question. Is it still worth $15?

It may be if gamers are still intensely devoted to the multiplayer madness of Modern Warfare 2.

Official MW2 Weapons

UPDATE: Here is the thread. Someone else even comes in and tries to tell them they ban a bit too fast and names off other people they banned for no reason.

dlphpSo have you ever been banned from a server for hacking? Some of you have probably been banned for hacking because you were hacking, but it’s a different story when you weren’t actually hacking.

It’s a weird feeling, at first you’re angry and pissed off. After 20min or so you get a nice feeling because you were playing so good they actually thought you must have been cheating, there really is no better compliment in a video game than being banned for hacking when in fact you were not hacking.

I haven’t been banned form a server for a couple months like this, it’s almost nice for a change. I wasn’t even angry or rude in the thread I made on the clans site until some needle dick came in running his mouth and being rude, then I went ahead and let them have it. [picture contains NSFW words]

The clan in question is [CAg] which I thought was a decent clan. I notice them in many of the S&D servers I visit so I really didn’t expect this, figured they wouldn’t be this noobish.

So there it is, I just wanted to publicly vent. Not a big deal, I can find a different server to play on but I did like the server. It was a SC S&D server with killcam and a decent map rotation. I’m actually looking for a new “home” server, I play on NoBS server a lot and they’re cool people, decent map rotation, but I want to find a server where the players are mostly all better than me. You can’t get better unless you play with people who are better than you. Unfortunately I’m in a weird spot and it’s starting to look like my only option is a ProMod server which I really am trying to hold off on. ProMod is OK but the people who play there take the shit WAY seriously, I kind of like a more laid back environment.

I am trying to work with the |mele| clan as we speak to find our own server. I am offering a blogroll link on both this site and modernwarfare2.net in exchange for a free COD4 server. INX Gaming gave us a server but it was in the UK and our pings were horrible so we had to scrap the deal. If anyone knows of a U.S. based game server host that wants an awesome link in exchange let them know about me, or let me know about them. These two sites get well over 200k unique visitors per month of highly targeted traffic.

This October comes the challenge of Modern Warfare and Battlefield: Bad Company. Medal of Honor of Electronic Arts is being released on October 12 and it will challenge both the games for the top spot in the FPS genre.

Last week at E3 gaming event the stills and multi-player footage were released. The footage bound to bring comparison with the MW2 and BBC2.

The styles of the game is similar to the MW2 and BBC2, but MoH appears to concentrate on points and not focus on kills as MW2 does.

Below is the footage of Medal of Honor:
