There is zero reason to use the FAL, I've found.
I originally was using it exclusively, but the amount of CQC situations you find yourself in just do not make the FAL a weapon you can use in all situations.
If you love accuracy, go with an ACR. The recoil is essentially non-existent and you can spray across a map with near perfect accuracy.

The FAL is an assault rifle that wants to be a sniper rifle. Kinda like the F2000 is an assault rifle that wants to be an SMG.

Is there some sort of tag that Gaffers generally use in games? I would assume something like [GAF], but I've never seen one.
If there is, I'll use it.

Does the 360 version have better lighting and/or bloom effect? Whenever I check one of those funny kills videos on Youtube, the lighting and bloom really pops out. Maybe it's thedivisionbyzorro said:

Actually usually in pre-game lobbies I will switch my tag to the same one as someone else in the lobby. It's actually pretty funny, some people get really confused and some people get really pissed off, especially the hardcore clan kids.

Eh I've had people do that to me in Counter-Strike and it's a pretty shitty thing to do. Even if your clan is full of cool people, they'll usually react negatively to someone stealing your tag.
I've never been in a hardcore clan so it didn't piss us off too much, but it definitely seemed like a lame thing to do.

I feel like I've finally kicked this game's hook on me over new years. Back to playing single player games!!

How the hell do you snipe that quickly?!?!
It really isn't fun when you get a bunch of super good players coming in and totally unloading on the others. even worse when they start boasting about it in the lobby. yes we get it you're fucking beasts at a computer game.
I wish there was some kind of tier system where players would only be put into matches with equals. Like some football games have divisions. you move up and down based on how you do and you know that any good players wont be in the lower divisions for too long.
I happen to be really good at PES and this division system they have lets me have challenging games as opposed to game after game of complete one sided annihilation. of course COD is all about trying to smash your opponents face in as much as possible so people relish destroying a weak opponent rather than the challenge of facing a skilled opponent.
or at least have a mode where you set a range of ranks you want to play against, with the lowest being say 10 lower than your current rank. that way you don't get rank 65s vs rank 8s.
I actually don't mind so much playing against these monstrous players individually, but they usually come in groups, and that means the stragglers are always together and then we're basically lambs to the slaughter. and I can't play mercenary mode because average me is playing in a party with my average friend.
other times I just want to relax and play some COD, I don't wanna be ultra focused and have to deal with these groups who have some hardcore strategy on how to completely dominate each map or who have superhuman habits developed through months of practice.
is that so much to ask? my gamertag says recreation ffs.

Same here. I wish Zones were actually taken into account in matchmaking every once in a while.kaizoku said:
All in all though I'd say my matchmaking experiences have been an overall positive. There are those times though, when a serious team pops on and just lays absolute waste. Those are the times when I see Nukes as a merciful way to just end the match that much quicker.

Do we want to start wearing a tag? I roll with "USPS" right now, as it was my SSBM tag, but I'd be fine with nGAF or something.
Since there seemed to be some discussion of weapon preference a page or so ago, I'll comment.
I've gone through some phases, my first was the M16, coming off Halo 3 it was just like the BR, loved it. But, it lacks in close quarters and multi-enemy combat, so I don't use it as often anymore, but it's still nice at a distance.
ACR was next up, loved the accuracy, but I got annoyed getting hitmarkers and not getting kills, or people taking me out just because I couldn't drop them fast enough.
After doing from research I ended up with the Tar-21, it's got the highest damage output of any AR, and the lower accuracy doesn't hurt much as long as you stay away from long range automatic fire. I often use this with a silencer and OMA, to make up for the ammo consumption and give me more versatility in S and D.
Recently I've had some fun with the AUG+grip, power and long distance accuracy is a great combination if you can tolerate the iron-sight. Even if you can't there's always bling, but I like using Sleight of Hand Pro to compensate for it being an LMG.

I rolled with [GAF] for a while but am currently not using a clan tag. Just never bothered to put one back on after prestiging.
As far as guns go, I just can't decide. I'm currently plowing through the ACR to get my 10K points. I originally loved it after coming off the FAMAS, but like you, the lack of power is bothering me. I think I'll move to the M16 and holo next. I usually don't use the holo but the video was pretty convincing.

I've also heard that the Holo Sight makes the FAL do 40 damage minimum as opposed to 35 damage minimum...which is enough to make it be a two-shot kill with Stopping Power. Haven't seen substantial proof though. Apparently the Holo Sight does weird things.

That explains why I hated the RDS on the FAL! I never unlocked the Holo my first time around because I sucked with RDS and was pretty good with the irons! I might suffer through it this time around just to see what the Holo on the FAL is all about.
But first, I need to finish getting 40 bullet pen kills with the FAMAS FMJ- ugh.

Ugh im getting sick of the unbalanced game design. Wish there was a mode where the successful players can't summon kill streaks like helicopters or harriers. Whoever thought making the game unfair for people who are having a hard time are morons.

I've decided that the chopper gunner is better than AC130, unless I'm on Wasteland. Just too many buildings on other maps for people to hide in. AC130 is almost useless on Skidrow especially. I got all excited thinking it might turn into my first nuke but no, not exactly.
Been having a TON of fun last few games using just C4 and my Riot Shield! Scavenger is a must for the class to keep picking up more C4 by the way. Damn it's fun to plant a C4, sit somewhere then blow fools up. Yes it might be camping, but I don't care, I only do it with this class which I rarely play. And if they get through the C4? Ultimate shield beatdown I went 16-3 on Karachi doing this and finally got my K/D over 1.50!
I must also echo the post above me, I also find Chopper Gunner far superior to AC-130. While AC-130 is much neater, CG is faster, closer and far more effective at being accurate and hitting enemies in tight spots. Hitting windows and doorways is no problem with CG, but good luck doing it with an AC-130.
I'm gonna miss this game Back to Uni tomorrow where I PSN doesn't work. Bah..no MW2 Easter at the earliest...
