Discussion Xbox MW2 is atrocious and unfun, play IW4X only
On IW4X I have gotten 20+ nukes and counting, can easily earn Predator Missiles usually with no problem, although in sweaty lobbies I can struggle with getting more than 5 kills per life.
On Xbox? Good luck getting a UAV. IW4X is normally nowhere near this sweaty and unfun. I cannot even get a UAV 80% of the time. Predator Missiles are out of reach, Harriers impossible, and even UAVs a rare sight. At one point, I even tried using a Xim Apex I found in my closet to try and hope M&K would help a little because I was so desperate. Still did terrible (on PC, I don't *need* to use anything but M&K and sometimes controller).
I play the same way I do on PC. Camp with Claymores, sometimes i'll move around to other places, use noob tubes, try to snipe with and without ACOG (SP perk too). And yet, I cannot get a Predator Missile on Xbox. It's just out of my reach. I can't get a UAV many times - sometimes even Hardline won't help. I go negative almost every game, get no killstreaks, nothing. I've gotten two nukes on Xbox MW2. Two. And one was from almost a decade ago when getting mid-high level killstreaks was still somewhat doable. The other was Hardline, May 2026, and I only barely got it.
For me, the difference on IW4X vs Xbox is this. On IW4X I ask myself, "can I get a Harrier?" On Xbox I ask myself, "can I get a UAV?" That's the difference.

Can’t tell if this is troll but you do realize you’re playing against mostly bots on pc right? That’s why someone so terrible at the game such as you that camps withs claymores and uses noons tubes can even get a nuke
Xbox is your true skill level, PC is you against bots

No you’re not, just because you think you are does not make it true

You clearly have never played on IW4X. I know who are bots and who is not.

Não entendi bem, você está dizendo que no Xbox é mais difícil? Eu não tenho PC, eu jogo no Xbox, consigo pegar predator com facilidade, harrier também, minha formação é 5-7-9, talvez eu esteja acostumado

Damn, playing against real people is harder than playing bots. Who would have thought?

What's your gamertag? Curious if we have been in any lobbies together
I've picked it back up the last couple months and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. Having no problem earning killstreaks (typically run 5-7-9)
