At the minute, the continuous dropping out of connections is driving me to dispair. The whole 'could not migrate host' scenario is just crap.
I had 15 kills and no deaths the other day, the connection slowed, slowed, slowed then dropped and I lost all my points.

I would improve it by un-installing it and going back to WaW or MW, which I have.

I'd like it to stop respawning the person I just killed so they are then behind me and kill me.
I dont really have any connection problems. My internet seems to cope with it well

Re-spawning issues, knife 'glitch' class and the whole 'sniper frog' mystery to be solved.

yeah thats it. i have no other issues with the game. online it never drops connection and always migrates host properly. its the game itself with its little spawn issues that piss me off.
edit, looking forward to the upcoming xbox exclusive maps for it. should make it a better game for a while.

one minute you are doing well, can kill anyone easily. next minute you get killed too easy yet you are playing no different. people who are doing badly all of a sudden become invincible and get rediculous care packages while people doing well get a counter uav.

My internet is sound, it must be some of the hosts, but it happens at least twice every 30 mins.

when i was rank 70, i got counter uav or ammo all the time. i then prestiged and was rank 4 or 5 and i got 2 ac130's and a pavelow in one game.
you can notice the flaws in mw2 if you go back and play cod4 or world at war. if you are good, you are just good. this one seems to make you good, then bad, then average, then terrible then good then bad etc just whatever it wants.

Strangely, and off topic, I havent experienced one game where someone has nuked it, until yesterday where there were 2 in 2 consecutive games

i would sort out the fucking campers, if you stand in a area for more than 30 seconds you get blown the fuck up, it winds me up each and every time i get killed by a camper, because i go into revenge mode and then make silly mistakes and die another 3 or 4 times.fucking cunts

to be honest, spawning in COD4 is toss too - you'll either spawn right in the middle of the shit going down, right in front of an enemy or right on the other side of the map for you to only get sniped

a lot of that is due to people knowing them maps and spawn points far too well though. mw2 seems to spawn people wherever it wants to. its completely random.
on underpass level i was in the sewer bit very close to the wall with my back. i shot 2 people, one of which respawned in the gap behind me to knife me. and no, no tactical insertion. it just decided to put them there as i just killed them.

actually its sometimes good to watch the kill cams as you can see you killing someone, them come back to life walk 5 steps and kill you back. this is where you notice it more if you watch them.
i have no problem with campers. should be able to play the game that way if you wish. mw2 though will respawn you right next to them so its not an issue killing them.

If I get killed by someone camping I just watch the killcam to find out where they are hiding then make it my mission to find them and take revenge. Cant beat coming up behind them to find them lying down sniping as you blow their brains out

I bet you'd camp up like a sissy little girl in a real life situation. Some people like to play that way, just deal with it.
Personally I hate camping as I get bored after a couple of seconds. I'm happier hunting people down than sitting in 1 spot and getting 3/4 kills per game.
I love finding someone who's camped up, as it's an easy kill next time you're nearby

I wouldn't mind it if they made it so PS3 and Xbox owners can play each other. They wont do that though.

maps need to be more random,
iv played it online since it hit shops, ( fair enough probably not as much as some guys on here) but iv racked up 2 dyas of online play, in those two days iv played rust once!
gets too repetitive jumping from scrapyard to karchi then to wasteland all the time, maybe just me mind you,
if there was at least two more maps and rust came into play that bit more often it would mix it up alot more
