You don't have to camp to get killstreaks. You just have to be very aware of your surroundings.
The paradox is only a conflict between reality and your feeling what reality ought to be.

I personally feel the game is .. alright at 6, but can be a bit lonely. I much prefer a fast paced frantic match, with lots of targets. 10 players in S&D is perfect, imo. I just played a vanilla game with 28 players on Crossfire. Lots of grenade spam, but if you know where they're going it's easy to avoid. Then you just work on crushing the retarded pub-whores, I got quite a few choppers, which doesn't happen often on S&D.Miggle wrote:

In my experience, 20-28 is the ideal number of players and certainly not a grenade clusterfuck, although that depends on the people you play with and not the game itself. Hell, DF:BHD used to run 50 player servers, which was awesome (although the maps were infinite and not walled in like CoD has always been)
Sorry my opinions aren't good enough for you fox.
It's about team work and winning the match. One guy camps to get the kill streaks and back up the guys ahead, while another protects the camper. Others keep forward and stay in the mix. While camping, I enable team kill streak abilities like counter-UAV. It helps the team.
Same with the riot shield. I use the riot shield to advance and distract the enemy, while my team mate stays just behind me to supply the firepower.

...So is TDm only 6v6?
killstreaks legitimize camping. As with CoD4, the new features promote bad play.Ilocano wrote:

Why would they add 3rd person? If i wanted to play gears of war, I'd play gears of war
Is the minimum still 9v9 or are there lower player caps?
there's lower caps.{TL}SHARPSHOOTER wrote:

nobody's forcing you to play third person...S.Lythberg wrote:

afaik, but I can't verify that.{TL}SHARPSHOOTER wrote:

6v6 max yes. 3v3 min. unless you play ground war which pushes it up to 9v9 tdm.{TL}SHARPSHOOTER wrote:

so it's really easy to get into a good game, if your idea of good is the same as the devs, otherwise go fuck yourself.Spark wrote:

You can do 9v9 TDM with ground war.
6v6 must be epic
6v6 was pretty much the optimal number of players for Cod4. Dunno about the MW2 map sizes though.

They are generally bigger to cope with the different playstyle. Like, the most cramped TDM map I can think of (Karachi) is waaay bigger than a map like Crash, say.DeathUnlimited wrote:

I like the size/ player limits (although the same could be achieved by just selecting decent servers if there was dedicated). Less spammy than cod4... more open. It's very easy, but mainly because its harder for some randy with 3 frags and a P90 to kill you.
And that's exactly why I like this over Cod4... when it doesn't lag.Little BaBy JESUS wrote:
