In a way it sort of makes sense. I mean, running at full tilt and side stepping in a full load out is more likely to end up faceplanting and dropping your weapon. Perhaps having speed loss be the effect of strafing?
I personally felt that the controls and movement of Modern Warfare was more fluid and user friendly. It took me a few days to really find my feet on BC2. Then again, having a shitball graphics card when I first started surely didn't help at all. But whenever I do go onto MW2 I beat the hell out of people better than before.
If you ever play the Almacata(sp) Desert map with some friends I highly suggest launching quads halfway across the map. Some friends and I went on to an empty server that only plays that map, had 5 engineers drop anti-tank mines behind a quad with an assault guy to keep them stocked, and blew up the mines with a grenade to send the quad and driver (so long as they don't put their own mines down) from the spawn point to the center of the map. Good times for when the SRS BSNS players are gettin you down.
We got the humvee to go decently, and the tanks don't fly too well. The chopper made a nifty maneuver, but the quad is by far the best vehicle to be launched. Especially after the first explosion makes a huge crater in the ground for better thrust.
As far as the card goes, I was a bit overzealous in wanting it installed so I forgot to clean all of my old irrelevant graphics drivers off of my hard drive before trying to install the latest driver package. In short, after realizing I couldn't access the Control Center again I ended up having to wipe all of that crap off the disk before it worked properly. Just a heads up.
