Capping two flags and controlling the spawn is a key to winning a domination game. Random and Revenge spawns kind of defeat the point of the game. Cap A or C and B. Then rape. If they don't want to be raped. Stop it or back out. Don't handicap good players/teams because some people suck.


Fwiw, the Domination leaderboards show at least 7 million people have attempted to play it. In essence, its a zero sum game (yes you can kill yourself, but cmon, thats like less than one in one hundred deaths). Some of these kids really, really suck. For every Pevy or Momo, you got a kid who's overall K/D and W/L is completely in the shitter.

I know it's all about appealing to noobs and making the game easier to poor players, it's about moving units, i get it. But it sucks that good/decent players are punished.

BLOPS was my first COD, and i was absolutely turrible, just turrible. From January to around April i got raped, A LOT. My K/D was 0.64 and my W/L was like 0.49. I finished up with a 1.22 K/D, not sure on W/L but it was over 1. I dealt with getting raped until i could hold my own. I'm glad BLOPS didn't OVERsimplify the game for the sake of catering to shitty players.

I hear ya. Apparently i'm a 1.3 K/D player. I can't get it raise any higher. I'm at 1.36 right now, it fluctuates from 1.29 to 1.3 ish. Very frustrating. I'd really like to see what it would be without all the bullshite lag, getting host raped and revenge spawn killed.

my k/d was already on it's way up this week, by .05 points, but this, this, will make things drastically different.

Or the fact that I enjoy playing with him?

Fwiw, I usually don't get involved in the pissing matches, and I say nice things about a lot of people I like playing with (even though Bubba throws it back </3)

2 things MJ, we've been over them multiple times:

1) No one wants to play SnD regularly. boring. for kids.

2) People like winning. That means playing on a team full of winners, team players, and a group that has been doing it for 3 years. Not playing with the likes of average to below average players with a ringer or two that is heavily leaned on.


FACTS MJ, "And No you can't ride in the trunk bud,...."


you won't understand that quote, therefore, we can never be friends.

yes, it doesnt make any sense why they would totally cluster the OBJECTIVE OF THE GAME TYPE.

revenge spawning promotes running around aimlessly and discourages teamwork. i used to play domination almost exclusively because of the predictability of spawns. on mw3, i've played more TDM because dom spawns were entirely unpredictable.

i've almost adjusted to the shite spawn system now tho. i wonder how big of a difference we are talking here?

if the dominant team holds A&B, the losing team C, will they not spawn at our back at A just for the frick of it anymore?

ground war dom has been impossible to trap but with a good 6 man squad that doesn't push too far we have been successful recently with trapping..
