fair enough. For its first 3months at least. It was the greatest game I ever played.

Only thing that bothered me after a while was commando and grenade launcher.

I never had a problem with the other perks at all.

Quick scoping IMO was nowhere near as bad as I'm experiencing on MW3.

The glitches only started for me when BO came out and no one looked after the servers.

MW2 = Near perfect crafted game IMO!!!!

EPIC MAPS ALSO.

really? ive barely seen anyone doing it - literally maybe a dozen times or so.

mw2 was awesome - and the perks gave you real options of how to play - more power to your gun or to your explosives etc whereas with all the nerfs and buffs they keep doing to the guns in mw3 they're slowly making them all the same - and the grenade launchers on most guns are entirely pointless, cos you need 2 to kill anyone the only ones you seem to get one 'nade kills with is the m320 on the scar and acr, unless you drop the nade onto a barrel and get the kill that way.

the thing that most annoyed me on mw2 was final stand - which they promised was gone for mw3 - then not only did thay bring that back, they also added dead man's tactical nuclear warhead

Really. Maybe I'm just unlucky with the people I play against.

As for grenade launchers. I agree. They are faaaar too underpowered in this game along with most of the shotguns which is frustrating, as I'm not a specialist with one type of Gun. I like to try out new guns every prestige.

Currently on prestige 6 btw. You?

i'm only about half way through prestige 3 - i have 2 accounts though, one which i play with friends over, and one which is just mine - so i know that every title, emblem, acheivement etc has been done by me.

i think the joint account is about level 50 or 60 second prestige

I like to use loads of guns too - usually all my custom classes are different weapons.

Currently i have an mp5 with a red dot, an m4 with a red dot, a mk14 with an acog, a dragonov with a silencer and an as50 standard. different weapons for different maps/formats helps keep it more interesting.

it is my intention to eventually do the mastery on all the weapons - i can't understand people who use the same one all the time, it'd bore me. i'm usually starting to get bored of a gun by the time the mastery is done.

Oh, I forgot about the overpowered kill streaks in MW2, they were ridiculous. Get a Predator missile, few kills, next up Harrier, gets you another 3-4 kills, which leads to Chopper Gunner, 6-8 kills and you can pretty much guarantee you'll get the win. It was hardly about gun on gun action, most of the games consisted of kills from explosions and kill streaks, it was ridiculous with about 5% kills coming from bullets.

And the game ending Nuke, stupidest idea ever. Another reason for idiots to camp for that.

the harriers etc only got you kills if the other team were stupid enough to not shoot it down and keep running around without.... er... whatever the perk was that meant they couldn't see you.

personally i always had a class set up with that perk and a stinger - they got aircraft up, i'd find cover until i died, switch to that class and shoot it down - the same as i do now with mw3.

i guess it's just horses for courses - personally i like having other ways of getting kills rather than just using my rifle, and having to counter it when other people are trying to do the same.

-----------------------------------

Fair point, but I was never THAT great to get such killstreaks all the time. Was so hard for me to get a Chopper without a care package assist.

Its impossible for me to even want to achieve mastery due to the fact that grenade and shotgun attachments especially are so weak.

---------------------------------------

Exactly!!!!

I've never had a problem with killstreaks. Its usually people who just play for themselves and not the team and suffer due to this. If you have a stinger in your class there would be no problems. I got the stinger title in MW2 because I ALWAYS shot down air support.

Every class of mine in MW2 and now MW3 has a stinger attached so unfortunately you're not gonna get that many kills by the way of air support when your up against me.

---------------------------------------
the grenades i have generally utilised barrels etc to get more power, or fire, duck for cover, re-load and fire again - the shotgun attachments you just have to accept that your k/d is going to suffer bigtime while working through it it's crazy having to get 40 kills with it - 10 would be more appropriate.

I'm fairly new to COD, doing ok-ish so far. Does anyone use the Type-95 or are there better assault rifles out there?

I managed to do really well with the UMP45 but I decided to see what the assault rifles are like. Type-95 had the best stats from what i saw.

posted on 16/2/12

I always have a stinger class, Sometimes when I play and the enemy team gets a heli or somthing like that, they never shoot it down, soo annoys me, I always have to be the one shooting them down because most team mates love getting killed by them, idiots.

I usually shoot them down before they have even enter the map area, soo funny though, they guy has worked hard to get it and boom, gone before it can even do anything.

So far I'm not level 80 no prestige in MW3, been there for a while now, don't really like prestiging and k/d is around 1.62 for tdm.

--------------------------------
if you're good with the t95 it's awesome - personally i'm not a big fan of 3 shot bursts or single shots, i like full auto. if i'm using a burst or semi auto weapon, then i'll always make sure to have a fully auto back up. I'm currently using the mk14 (semi auto) as a sort of halfway house between assault and sniping - when i use the t95 and m16 i'll probably do similar.

most people seem to agree that an acr with kick is the 'best' setup - at least it seems that way with the amount of them i see personally when i had that setup it almost felt like cheating - it's nuts taking people out on full auto at sniping range with an assault rifle!

Shooting down air support also gives boosts your own pointstreaks and that includes UAV'S. I take down the LOT!!!

---------------------------------
I guess as a new player, the Type 95 would be the gun of choice since it is pretty easy to use and overpowered imo and it seem like it was made that way to help the new players, bad idea imo. It's a one burst will kill from close and medium range, high rate of fire and very accurate so I can see why its so popular. Personally I don't like the Type 95 and and I don't have it in any of my custom classes. Never liked using burst weapons and its cheap imo, this and the FMG9's I avoid. Prefer the dual Scorpions, now they are deadly.

You could try the ACR, which is super easy to use, altough since it does have a slightly slow fire rate, you will probably lose close quarter battles, long and medium range there is not a gun better..bar Type 95.

I used the Type 95 once for my last 10 levels on prestige one.

Might see what all the fuss is about.

Mr. Tea. (U4302)

Can you stick an attachment on it to increase the fire rate?

-------------------------------
the t95 you can, rapid fire reduces the time between bursts - the acr, no, you can't - not that you need to, just get into the habit of coming around corners with gun already up to eye to speed up your spot-react-kill times.

posted on 16/2/12

You can use rapid fire as pointed out by VictorGoons, also it would be best to use that and red dot sight (two attachement option) as the iron sights on the Type 95 are not so good so it would be best to use that combo. Use that and the FMG9's and any newb can do well.

posted on 16/2/12

Sorry guys, I meant can you put attachments to increase the fire rate on the ACR?

posted on 16/2/12

You can't increase the fire rate of the ACR, its not that slow any way, the gun is good enough as it it, any faster fire rate and the gun would be waaay overpowered, if it isn't already.

with the ACR I always lose a head on battle with a guy with FMGs, even if i shoot first.

----------------------------------------------
they're designed for close range work - the acr isn't. at 10+yards though, the acr will win everytime - the fmgs have a pathetically short effective range.

posted on 16/2/12

Dual Scorpians are the ones to go for or even the MP9's, they are underrated since the FMG9's are so popular. If you try to use the FMG9's single they have a rediculous recoil.

posted on 16/2/12

personally i like the last ones to unlock - i'm having a brain fade though and can't think of their name - again ridiculous recoil, but you can minimise that by hip firing - and their fire rate is monstrous!

posted on 16/2/12

G11's are the ones you are talking about I think.

Anyway, has anyone come across campers in Hardhat who like to sit just behind this gate with barrels in a hidden area, it’s that area near the sewer tunnel and parallel to that is another opening with a long narrow ally way where most of the action seems to take place. I was playing a few weeks ago and some dude would always just sit there for the whole match and just kill anyone who would pop out of the tunnel or the other side...so annoying.
