Yes, it's true. Deathmatch only gives you points for kills. Domination is not that much better cuz it only gives you points for flag caps which don't come too too often. But Headquarters, gives you points for kills and time that the territory is in your teams possession, even when your dead. So if your team has the Headquarter, you get 5 points every few seconds.

Antipop, I should be on around one too.

look for me a little later than that....

i will be going to BR for the weekend so my GF pwned me with all kinds of crap to do around the house

i think kills are worth half the points in domination....i know for COD4 it was like that

There's more?

Don't worry buzd, as soon as Gamefly or the U.S. Postal Service figures out how to get a game to me in less than a week, I'll be on and you can shoot me in the face. I'm pretty sure I die more than you do.

By the way, in the first MW I found it difficult to ID who was on the other team so I died a lot by hesitating to shoot someone because I couldn't tell what team they were on. The differences in uniforms were so slight, it caused a lot of hesitation for me. It got easier, but I still hesitated all too often. Have they done a better job differentiating uniforms this time?

I figured that out at some point, but I still wish they would do something to make it more obvious. I find myself hesitating to shoot far too often and getting killed as a result. Given the number of times I'm going to die anyway, it would be nice to avoid getting killed because I can't tell one team from the other fast enough.

I never had that problem with KZ2, Warhawk, Halo or UC2. I guess it makes it a bit more realistic, but it seems like they could do something to color code each team or make the uniforms different enough to be able to easily tell the difference. Or, it could just be that I suck really bad at the game. I'm betting the last one is the correct answer.

Obviously, you just need a larger TV.

It's not just you, I do this pretty regularly as well. Even just in the single player campaign so far, I think I've killed like 12 of my own squad mates .

Yeah, I only played the first one for a few hours, but I thought that was the case. Still, I hate to look like the idiot who keeps shooting his own guys. But, I guess it's better than looking like the idiot that always gets killed.

They're not mutually exclusive. You can do both!!

I'm pretty sure I will. I have mad skillz at getting killed and looking like an idiot.
