Requiem 01-08-2010 04:36 PM

Couldn't ever imagine using the G3 or FAL as a 'sniper only' rifle. Like, putting an ACOG on it would just kill its up-close performance completely. Red Dot is where it's at.

G3 in MW1 was rape up-close, and you were losing out on its effectiveness if you only used it as a long-range gun. FAL is a short second behind, but it is still a 2-3 shot kill, which is just a quick double tap away.

In FFA, you just have to get used to using pistol/tac knife when you go into buildings, and you can rock some bitches.

Kalyx triaD 01-08-2010 04:40 PM

FAL works perfectly fine as a sniping tool with an ACOG.

Requiem 01-08-2010 05:01 PM

Yeah I am not debating that. Just saying you kill its effectiveness by using it as only a sniping weapon. It works fine long range with a red dot. FAL was probably some of the fastest unlocks I've ever gotten. lol

Stopped using it cause I got the M16, and that pretty much took over my classes.

Kalyx triaD 01-08-2010 06:26 PM

Gonna play after 1v100, feel like shooting shit.

Can you plug headphones into a jack and place the headset on your head?

RDS on FAL is the only way to go unless you want to use it as a sniper rifle.
I used the G3 in MW1 as a sniper as I sometimes wanted to do some long ranged stealthy shooting/support for Domination matches.

As for going into building I like using dual shotguns, AA12 or Striker.

Yes, Its a shitty sniper though. Which is balanced out by the fact that if your not a skilled sniper, your not completely fucked at close range.

It was fun, but there are assault rifles better from the start.

False, the Holo will show a little blue spot on it when you get close to someone inside a building or around the corner, the red dot, does not.

:eek:

I was not aware of this at all...

Savio 01-08-2010 10:30 PM

You can always tell if you are close to someone because 90% of the people use radar jam.

Evil Vito 01-08-2010 10:42 PM

<font color=goldenrod>I stretched out Campaign as long as possible and finally finished it up today. Fucking awesome.

SPOILER: show
Even though I could sorta sense a Shepherd heel turn, I didn't think the last mission would involve you mowing through the US Army. Nice twist. Makarov still being alive likely means he'll be there for MW3

I hate Scrambler, its almost as useless as Eavesdrop was in MW1

Evil Vito 01-09-2010 04:03 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Started playing online. As always, I'm terrible. I move around when I shoot out of habit...something I'm not good at. Definitely can't just stand there and shoot cause since I'm only starting everyone has far superior weapons.</font>

The Destroyer 01-09-2010 04:38 PM

Weapons don't really have a huge amount to do with it - the starter weapons aren't that bad really and it doesn't take long to get stuff like grenade launchers and red dot sights.

Helps when you begin to get more familiar with the layout of the maps as well.

Just remember to shot anyone who does not have green letters above their head. Also Domination is better than Team Deathmatch.

Savio 01-09-2010 09:23 PM

use "stopping power" perk

Sovereigntywillpr 01-09-2010 11:09 PM

is anyone bothered a bit that kids are playing a game shooting civilian's of the russian federation as well as doing house to house combat in the united states, as well as delta-force type special-op missions in city's like Rio (where the insurgents are just fucking people who live there and are scared shitless I belive)

anyone?

Requiem 01-09-2010 11:15 PM

what? shut up.

Kalyx triaD 01-09-2010 11:17 PM

No.

Kalyx triaD 01-09-2010 11:17 PM

Also shut up.

Emperor Smeat 01-09-2010 11:21 PM

No not bothered since in the end every console generation has people worrying too much about what kids should or shouldn't be playing and less on parents being responsible for what is being played by their children. Every generation has people saying games are too realistic in appearance or themes and its going to happen again next generation when graphics or controllers improve (ex. Godfather on the Wii mimics strangling someone when you make the strangling motion).

Its partially based on the stereotype of games as a child's form of entertainment and how most adults online act like kids (mostly in mic supported games).

Remember, the weapons are only deadly in the hands of people who know how to use them and where to go in using them.

IN that, a bit of practice with how each weapon works and the layout in the map and you will be calling in AC130's in no time.

Use the M4A1 until you get the SCAR, Use stopping power as well.

Video games dont make kids do things, poor parenting and guidance in life when making important decisions such as those to discern fiction from reality does.

go away

El Fangel 01-10-2010 04:24 AM

I have to say even though it is one of my killstreak rewards, chopper gunner needs to be nerfed.

Savio 01-10-2010 10:25 AM

I've always agreed with that, and always thought people who took all their time to bitch about GTA and Mortal Combat were idiots, still do.

but there's something different about this game...I've never been bothered, I guess the civilian thing bothered me (I thought it was fun)...

I don't think kids will take an AK-47 and attack an airport, I just have a problem with the desensitization of these kids.

Sovereigntywillpr 01-10-2010 03:41 PM

I mean, lets face it, every year kids are getting dumber and dumber (talk to anyone who works at a school, I'm sure someone here does, they do damn arts and grafts all day)

grafts

Blitz 01-11-2010 09:26 AM

Been on a bit of a role last couple of days. Lots of ~20-~10 games or better. Mini Uzi and sniping have been working for me.

No.

Evil Vito 01-11-2010 10:19 PM

<font color=goldenrod>lol threw a Semtex grenade out a window, aiming for the doorway of a room another guy was sniping (he didn't have a view of me, I was in a building to the side of him)

My throw was hella short but an opponent happened to be walking by and it stuck. :cool:

Also not too bad at throwing the knife</font>

I have been using the barret to this effect and have been annoying the piss out of some people by being rather accurate in hip firing it.

El Fangel 01-12-2010 04:24 AM

Also, I have recently been reborn and found ACR, I believe and him and his godly abilitys.

Kalyx triaD 01-12-2010 01:15 PM

ACR's pretty wild, and possibly more accurate than it should be. Got a lot of longshots with it. Silenced.

I have been able to snipe with it and a thermal scope, yep its too accurate.

Blitz 01-12-2010 05:58 PM

ACR is easily my favourite gun in the game. People bitch about it being weak, but with accuracy like that it doesn't need to be strong, because every shot is gonna land.

El Capitano Gatisto 01-12-2010 06:10 PM

Does it take a million bullets to kill someone with a silenced ACR without Stopping Power?

Blitz 01-12-2010 06:49 PM

Not a million. Couple more than the average assault rifle, but not enough that I ever consider Stopping Power with an ACR.

:wtf:

We are playing the same game I assume, but unless I catch the other person off guard I usually get owned by them, for some reason nearly every gun seems to fire and kill faster then a silenced ACR.

Hell, I have had dual models miss, reload and still get me while the guy was strafing and I was shooting him with the ACR, no idea what makes the silenced ACR so terrible.

Blitz 01-13-2010 08:26 AM

The person using it.

El Capitano Gatisto 01-13-2010 08:29 AM

You're probably just shit Fallen Angel.
