I used to use stopping power with P90, and it was pretty unstoppable. Thing about P90 is it's got distance covered, so that I can use it for pretty much all purpose, unless I want to go Rambo with my RPD. P90 with stopping power and RPD with double tap are toss ups, except RPD got more recoils.

In the pc version did anyone notice an option to run it in windowed mode? I've been looking around the options but I don't see anything :/

Pretty sure you would have to restart the current mission, but you should consider it in order to save you television from certain death.
Auto-aim gives you some help, but it ain't gonna hide the magical super annoyance of infinite enemies until I walk past the trigger box gameplay issues.
Not really.BeeDog said:
Both Stopping Power and the Jammer are far more useful. Plus, if the guy shooting you has stopping power equipped, it doesn't really matter if you have +30% health. In my case, it just means I have to shoot you three times instead of two. Heh. Plus, you still go down in one headshot, so you know.
Juggs is only worth using in your primary weapon is the shotgun. Everything else? meh.

"im talking about the endless enemies before you cross an inmaginary line"
I do prefer it not being like that but from what I've played so far I think it's a lot better in this one than it was in COD3. I haven't really had an issue. Maybe later on it gets worse :/

Infinite enemy respawns seem to have been towned down a lot in COD4. I've been in many encounters where I pick a good spot to take cover/pop-out in, pick off enemies, and after a certain point in time, it all stops and checkpoint reached.
Yup, as soon as I hear "Enemy UAV online" I just smile, because that means that people will be running right by me, since everybody looks at the radar when the UAV is active, and if they don't see that red dot on it they are going to think there is no one in there and go running by me.Kyoufu said:
Right now my favorite setup is: Silenced AK-47 + Bandolier + UAV Jammer + Deep Impact or Dead Silence.
On my second Prestige Mode and I just can't be bothered to use all of the other weapons to unlock the challenges 'cause I love that setup so much.
It's wonderful on HQ, I'll be sitting in a room capturing the HQ, the enemy will run in thinking the room is empty cause there's nothing on the UAV, and I'll shoot four enemies in the back from my little corner

When I (or my teammates) sends up a UAV, I quickly glance at the radar map and do a quick head count. I generally play the 6 on 6 modes, so if I don't see 6 red dots, then I ignore it for the most part. For me, the UAV comes in most handy while planning my airstrike.

I'll have to try the uav jammer out. I've always used stopping power (or juggs) as Perk 2.
I just unlocked the M14, the gun I've been waiting for (damn that recoil tho), so maybe i don't need stopping power.

I got into a couple matches in the FFA playlist today. Heard someone new mention that "This is the worst multiplayer ever." No doubt the Christmas newbies are getting a little turned off by all the XboxLIVE trouble. I hope they manage to sort this out soon. Frankly I'm surprised the problems are still persisting.

It depends on your playing style. I'm more of mowing-down-enemy-type that doesn't bother knocking the door, but busting through it. I could use little more health while Rambo-ing around.Kyoufu said:
Also, the game is about getting the best shooting angle while not giving the opponent shooting angle. There is a better spot than any place in most maps meaning you can't sit in one place that is totally safe.blindrocket

When playing online I hear a lot of talk about people thinking about switching to SOCOM when it comes to PS3 due to the problems of the matchmaking, host quitting, and Hardcore playlist. The promised update would fix most issues. Too bad they didn't get it out for us PS3 gamers before Christmas. :\

See, the thing is, with UAV Jammer you're in a far better position to hunt down enemies and set up good angles for yourself. Remember that you're invisible on the radar meaning you can go wherever you want. What I do is stick to the side of maps and kill people from behind, its great.
Another thing to remember is that Stopping Power is made redundant if you kill an enemy with him being able to fire back or even see you. UAV Jammer allows you to kill whilst lurking in the shadows. I find that much better than an attack increase which compromises my position on a map, meaning I'm never safe from enemy fire.
The Silencer complements this perk very well by making you completely invisible and also makes your bullets not make much noise. I've killed so many people with their teammates beside them and yet they have no clue what just went on
Honestly, I can never go back to Stopping Power now.

Finding a game has been an exercise in frutsration. Trying to find a game where the lobby doesn't close after one or two rounds, IF even makes it past a match, has been impossible tonight.
I'm hard pressed to think of a game that's lasted so I've made it through one full rotation of the maps. In any mode.
Edit: On Stopping Power, it has its uses, it just depends on the mode you're playing. I like to use the following load out for HQ: p90, 3xFrag, Stopping Power, Martyrdom. You spam your nades, run in like a maniac, spray and pray as many enemies as you can, the stopping power really helps here, and when you die you take out enemies or cause them to scatter from capturing the HQ with martyrdom.

I used Stopping Power almost exclusively as my slot 2 perk for my first two times around (regular mode then Prestige mode first time around) and I'm loving UAV + Silencer.commish said:
I played with silenced MP5 and UAV Jammer in the beta but have barely touched it in the final game, it was fun but now I've started using it again and this time with a silenced AK and it's like heaven.
Always felt that a silenced smg was a little wrong for my game, mostly cause I'm a pretty overall kind of player, long-range, mid-range and close-range and the silenced AK-47 together with the UAV Jammer fits my game perfectly. It's fun to have the enemy never knowing where you are (unless you count kill-cam, but I rarely sit in the same spot for long).

I really wish they would have had the option for dedicated servers like Warhawk. Having a game end because a host quit is really frustrating due to how frequent it happens. Especially since they have HTDM and HS&D lumped together currently (PS3 version). I think, FINALLY some Search and Destroy! "Host Ended Game".... &%$@#!
