So you only played against the top clans, and you want to compare that to some random Team Deathmatch where anyone can play? That doesn't make any sense. You have to compare the average MP match, not private clan matches. I bet if you go up against the top COD players you will get raped to the point of frustration. It goes both ways you know? I have seen hardcore Gears1 players get DESTROYED in COD4 against good COD players after talking the same shit about how COD is easy and for noobs (GOW1 is as hardcore as it gets).
And I wouldn't call it the COD mentality, those are just shitty players. They have been around since the Quake days. But ultimately when it comes to MP games, the players make the game. You can't hand pick the top players and point to what a game COULD be, you have to look at what the game actually is.
KZ2 was over-hyped ever since that fake E3 video, and for all the wrong reasons. You have a developer with a bad track record and a shitty ass game that they made for PS2. Besides the graphics, what were people so excited about at the time? Halo 3 earned its' hype after having 2 good games. KZ2 is a far better game than the first, but it got WAY too much hype considering how bad the first game was.
