The intervention is the best sniper rifle ever made and it has considerably less recoil than the 50 cal in real life. Why in the world does it have such nasty recoil? whats wrong with infinity, the accuracy is also the best on any sniper rifle ever made in real life yet the bar for accuracy aint full. what the hell?

Have you ever shot a bolt-action rifle in real life?

yes but not the intervention and i know for a fact that the intervention is the most accurate sniper rifle there is and it has less recoil than a 50 cal that is also a fact im not making shit up

squidz is right. shooting a bolt action means more power so more recoil. i used an M40A1 and the recoil was huge even for its size. an intervention is more powerful so it will have more recoil

Yea, so if you had no clue that a bolt-action had more recoil than a semi-automatic, then please don't say you know facts until you've shot one. Many of them.

Its hard to believe anyone would question why IW would screw up a sniper rifle when IW thinks shotguns have 3 times the range they do, knives kill better than assult rifles, you can dual fire shotguns from the hip and spin them to reload them while running 50 mph around a map for 10 minutes without getting tired.  They are all about the accuracy and realism of the weapons and perks. I think you sniper guys have it pretty easy.  Half of the time snipers are using the barrets from the hip firing as fast as they can accurately somehow or jumping in the air while running and scoping getting headshots.  Do you know how big a barret sniper rifle is?  Most of the time real soldier have to prop the rifle against something to shoot accurately.  There is nothing real or accurate about any of this crap.  IW thinks this is Halo: Modern Warfare 2.  Its a complete joke.

BUT...  It's the best joke I've heard in a while. ;D  I understand it isn't totally realistic but I still enjoy it. If it were totally realistic, there would be no health regeneration at least, plus a million other changes.  But I still like it.  Favorite game ever. ;D

I am glad you like it Law.  Unfortunately its not Call of Duty anymore so I'm not as big of a fan.  If you enjoy running around at 50mph stabbing people through bullets and don't care about the realism then this game is for you.  I prefer realism, strategy, and teamwork which means I am pretty much screwed with this installment.

I do enjoy tactics and strategy.  Its sad that I can't get it very often but I take what I can.  I still like the game though.  I haven't gotten tired of it yet and I don't see myself getting tired of it anytime soon. ;D

outlaw it must just be the pc because i always play with good people who play normally. try getting a ps3

My friends and I have re-installed MW1 and are enjoying it.  No hacks no cheats.  No foul language and stupid kids crying throughout the game because they got killed and didn't like it. I've got my dedicated servers back, XP in private games, the weapons are more balanced, and there are plenty of people to play with.  No steam.  No IWNet.  I played all weekend and didn't see hacks and did well.  I am not alone.  People are abandoning this game by the thousands to go back to previous versions or new games entirely.  I am not abandoning it.  I am just going to try and stick with private matches unless I need to unlock something specific, then I will play online long enough to get what I want and get back out.

I enjoy private MW2 matches where the game can be controlled similar to a dedicated server.  I just don't enjoy MW2 online playing with hacks and cheats.  I don't want to play on a console and I certainly wouldn't consider paying for MW2 again under any circumstances.  If anything, I feel they owe me a free copy for the Xbox because their PC version is such a disaster.  I'm not holding my breath.  If they added some kind of dedicated server option or XP back in private matches that would likely change my opinion of the game.

outlaw is very right :D so I think u loose this fight bra

this has gotten way off topic, but the only people who i hear constantly complain are pc players. so you dont have xp in private matches big deal consoles have never had them. i have told many ways to counter what they do but some people would rather complain about it than do something about it. if someone is speed hacking then use an area hack so when they get within 50 feet of you their game slows down or lags so much they have to leave. im sorry outlaw im not talking about you but its getting old.

Krabby, your solution to cheating is more cheating.  That's why there are so many hacks online right now.  People got tired of getting murdered by hacks so they get a hack and so on and so on.  It never ends.  There is nothing wrong with XP in private matches.  I think the whole fact that you have to go online to earn it is stupid because I don't want to play with people online I want to play against my friends not a bunch of people I don't know.  Are we supposed to use the supplied weapons and classes and never unlock anything?  In every other version of COD I could do that and still unlock weapons and gain rank.

Its to the point now that hacks are battling it out against each other and the person with the best hack wins which is exactly what you are suggesting.  Has nobody ever heard of playing the game fair?  Are we such a corrupt fucking society that cheating has become the norm and if you don't you are stupid?  I would rather not play at all...and I haven't been.  MW1 has XP in private matches and dedicated servers.  I have been playing that instead of this rediculous farce and enjoying it.  Amazingly enough, when not playing against hacking asswipes I'm really pretty good.  By the way, I think there are only so many comments that can be made about recoil on a weapon which is why it has gone off topic.  People are just responding to each other.

Hey Outlaw.  Why havent you posted in the new site yet?

outlaw hacking is a way of life for me, but not the way you are making it sound. the hacking i do is not aimbots or wallhacks. i fix what people like that do. if i played this on pc i would not just settle for private matches. i would destroy the game for them using regular hacks not game hacks. just because im a hacker doesnt make me a cheater. there are ways to fix it so your complaints are pointless

I am only referring to hacking in this game that allows people to win matches that would suck otherwise.  If you played this game on the PC you would be pissed too.  I am not attacking you or any other honest players or making statements about hackin gin general.  I am only concerned with the weasels who buy or created hacks that give them an advantage in this game.  They are cheating and there is no defense for it anymore than having cards up your sleeve while playing poker.  Cheating is cheating regardless of the type of game you are playing.  Maybe you would go after the hackers with a hack of some kind to shut them down.  I would actually think that is funny.  I would love nothing more than to see one of these asshole's game shut down on them for using a hack or their steam ID erased.  I was kind of hoping the game manufacturer would take care of that but they have failed to do so across the board since the game was released.  I have nothing against you or what you do.  I just don't like cheaters in this game.

I have only played modern warfare 2 for like 20 minutes at my friends house and I think the barrett is better. I am not sure why but we both seemed to get way more kills(like 2/1 ratio) with the Barrett than the intervention.

this has gotten way off topic

blah blah blah

anybody knows the G-mate game gun? it's amazing, you can feel the real battlefield with this gun, it's plug and play   very easy !!  pls. refer to http://www.g-mate.net.cn/englist/prodetail.asp?pid=37

Wow Pegasus.  I find it thrilling... all of the useful things that you have to say 8 times.  It's just eye-opening everytime you post this same thing in random topics.  Captivating.

You could just start a thread.

Because the forums are more fun to me than the game.  My biggest problem with this game are hackers.  COD6 for PC users is not fair and hasn't been since day 1.  In the beginning the hacks were few and far inbetween now they are in every match many times more than one.  I have always played call of duty games and loved them and have never had any issues much less posting them on forums like this until this version.  It is a complete disaster on the PC and IW has proven they have no interest in fixing the problems or stopping the hacks.  If the game worked as intended (IWNet worked properly) and there wasn't a non-stop barrage of hackers (lets just say no hackers for example) this game would still be unrealistic but fun.  If and when I manage to get into a match with no hackers it is fun.  Its very frustrating to abandon a fun game that is ruined by its own network technology and dishonest players.  It also makes it difficult to quit when you do enjoy the occasional match where there are no hacks and IWNet works right.  I love call of duty games.  I have played every one of them.  This entire forum is filled with people complaining about what they don't like about this game and yet they still play it.  It doesn't make any more sense for them to continue to comment than me but it is their right to do so.

For the sense of balance in the game, they have to put debate-ably more recoil on the intervention, or it would simply give too much advantage over the other rifles. Also, it is one of the firstly available rifles and in that way can't be the obviously best sniper rifle, or the others would be eliminated from the possibility of selection.

The only comment I have about the Intervention is that it should have more recoil and the quickscoping is rediculous.  I don't know how many times I have been killed by someone who is running manages to stop scope and fire with complete accuracy all at the same time and get one shot one kill when assualt rifles and LMGs can't kill someone up close and personal.  Some of this could be aimbots and hacks on the PC version but it happens way to often to be all aimbots and hacks.  These people aren't even sniping from a position or anything they are running around the map like the Intervention is an assault rifle or something.  Half the time the killcam shows they missed sometimes by alot.

I am a douchebag...

You're advertising here because ?
And anyway, if you hate intervention recoil, try the WA2000 or M21 EBR. Both have virtually no recoil :)
