(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Well, as youll be aware, OMA (one man army) is taking over the game, and in my opinion it getting oout of hand. Fair enough, use it properly and its a half decent perk, but acomponied with the perk danger close and "noob tubes", its just plain annoying.

Well, the end maybe near!. I was reading "Robert Bowling's twitter page (the man in charge of everything) and here are a few qoutes i found from a conversation he had with a few fellow tweeters:

tweeter 1 @1fourzerotwo Are there plans to patch Oma within the next month,

Mr. Bowling repleid:

Yeah. We've been testing and experimenting with multiple OMA tweaks looking for the best solution. I'll post ETA when I know one.

tweeter 2 @fourzerotwo Robert, please be honest. Is there going to be a meaningful patch (Addressing OMA + Boosting abuse) to MW2 before Black Ops?

Robert replied:

That's the plan and what I'm pushing for. Making progress and should have ETA soon on when it'll happen.

tweeter 3 @fourzerotwo Robert how goes the proposal to get rid of One Man Army refilling Grenade Launchers?

to which he replied:

@TheendsFanboy It goes well. We're testing what should be the final tweak to OMA. If that goes through, I'll post when to expect an update.


So, by the looks of things, within the next few weeks there will be no more OMA danger close "noob tubes".

Is this a start to a long road of Modern Warfare 2 re-vamping? hopefully more issues will be fixed.

Ill keep you up to date on the ETA of the patch.

Also in the news, Mr. Bowling announced new Hardcore game modes will be coming to PS3 Playlists soon (within the next month apparently)

These game modes include hardcore FFA and more;though he reported a few little bugs so lets hope they get them fixed.



*******NOTE: There is not a single copy and paste jobby on this post (apart from the qoutes lol), it is entirely my own work and took a lot of time and effort to put this together.

thanks.

Yeah one man army has to be toned down. I only use noobtubes if some guy is camping in some room spawning tubes out the window cuz that's the only way to get him out sometimes. But One Man Army is terribly abused. I actually refuse to play in Vacant for this very reason.

I don't use the ump45 cuz I can't get used to the iron sights, but what should they patch about it? I don't think it's too powerful at all.

Although I don't believe in the whole "overpowered" guns argument, especially since say a gun like the FAMAS or M16, they are beastly at medium to long ranges. But if someone is close up or if they are moving you'd have to be a good shooter to kill.

The UMP45 is fine as is really. The only overpowered thing in this game is One Man Army Noobtubing, and Commando if used with Lightweight/Marathon even though it still takes some skill to bring a knife to a gun fight lol

Vacant is officially the biggest noobtube map in my opinion. Wasteland noobtubing isn't that bad unless you're in the cave anyways.

The top 3 noobtubing maps:

1. Vacant
2. Rundown/Terminal but mostly by the C spawn.
3. Highrise

well i dont own the DLC so i can't agree but in COD4 Vacant was my favorite map. Ground War Domination at Wasteland is cool only if your Team captured Point B and C. Cuz respawn A into the cave is a pain:jim:
