PP90 is the best SMG imo but it isn't broken. Not like the Type 95 at least. Stalker pro is a really good counter to hip fire and the PP90 at range will lose most of the time to an AR.

 

[tigerin]

I typically play all COD games for 2 months or so and then move on. I think I may stop before christmas, or even thanksgiving. I don't feel like I am having fun.

I have never been killed from behind so many times before. It's ridiculous.

And no one cares if you get a KDR over 2 in domination. Abusing the people that are actually playing to win in that gametype is not skill. Do it in TDM and then you have something to talk about.

true dat. that's why i only play team deathmatch or kill confirm. i leave the team objective things to battlefield 3.

You're absolutely right, that's why I said in certain maps. Also do not forgot the Range proficiency which increases the drop damage distance for SMGs.

On a map like Bootleg for instance, or Resistance in those corridors between A and B, that setup has no equal.

 

[Kermit The Dog]

then just enialate the opposing team.

That's one of the worst spelling fuckups I've ever seen on the Internet. Holy shit!

Also, sniper rifles are ridiculously overpowered. What a load of rubbish they are. Fucking balance that shit IW, the auto-aim and massive hit boxes makes them easy mode guns.

Why is IW insistent on undoing all the good work Treyarch implemented? IW are the fucking B team now, without question, and that's looking past the fact they should have been considered B team after MW2.

I don't see the problem people have with the weps. I've been almost exclusively using the m4 and I do just fine with it.

I actually have the opposite in my stats. I almost always have 2.0+ in TDM but in the obj playlists I end up at 1.5 or lower.

 

[dmg04]

I cannot believe people are crying about shotguns being underpowered. I just played a match that was nothing but automatic shotgun spam from the other team.

SPAS-12 with a grip, steady aim and range is beastly.

 

[Syph Medwes]

Are people really having trouble with the Type 95? I used it for a while myself, but I didn't think it was over-powered or anything. (I ended up switching to the SCAR)
I always thought burst weapons were balanced by nature, because if you can manage to dodge at least part of the first burst, you can respond with your own flurry of bullets by just holding down the trigger while they have to click it again. (assuming you're using a fully-automatic weapon)

People are saying the Striker does work.

Between the PP being op, the type 95 being op, the bolt action sniper rile being op, etc. it kind of balances out. The second the first bullet connects, it's already over.

 

[Lionheart1827]

1887 is also pretty damn awesome with steady aim. My current MW2 Spas replacement.

 

[Shearie]

When you switch from one support class to another within a game, does your killstreak amount carry over? I'm guessing no since you can build classes that have different killstreak ceilings.

 

[Syph Medwes]

That feeling when your enemy uses a stealth bomber and you're the only one who dies...FUUUU

Anyone else figure out how many times they're gonna prestige?
Before the game came out I was thinking of going to 10, but now I'm kinda contemplating just prestiging once and then going for the camos and stuff.

You answered your own question.

Spoiler

so no

I'll prestige at least once. It all depends on how many custom classes I feel I'll need.

I guess everyone here has seen those weird gamertag/clan tags with the direction and button icons?

Actually I'm playing with my brother and some of his friends right now and two of them have them in their tags.
Apparently it's not a hack, you just use an accented "a" and some other letter or something.

 

[Mayyhem]

Have nobody to play with on 360, be cool if I could play with some of you guys. I'm on now, GT: Mayyhem

 

[dmg04]

I love how people are looking at my emblem going 'WHAT PRESTIGE IS THAT WHOAAA'

lol, it's just the first guys.
*unlocks AK*
yeah

 

[shintoki]

Just finished up with everything today and returned it, due to a test and work scheduled, didn't post the mid-game impressions.

SP: Its really just isn't good. They come up with many grand scenarios, but funnel you down into a 10x10 room. Every scene plays out like a shooting gallery. AI have the very basic, pop out of cover to shot, and down when you look at them. Clear the lot or a few waves of them and move on to the next one. Maybe they'll throw a novelty item for you or a scripted event. Its very bare bones and definitely feels like a second priority to MP, much of it being a rehash from what I remember of MW1.

The new AI with less infinite spawns and no grenade spam, even though they still put you down in 3 shots top, with many 1 shot kills from blind spots. It wasn't really frustrating at all till the final level. Improvement I guess.

MP: Very much the same mentality for it. Played about 2 hours of it, I think I was 1:1 for both W/L and K/D. It was basically the same thing as COD4. They did look to increase the amount of unlocks to ridiculous levels and after the 2nd hour, it just wasn't for me. Area is too small, guns are too powerful, too many perks and unlocks throwing off balance, too many killstreaks, etc. Can't put a complaint against it you haven't heard a dozen times before. I still see the appeal too it. Lots of carrots on sticks and such a low skill bar level, its very accessible to all gamers.

Pretty melancholy over playing it.

 

[Nori Chan]

Honestly, I think I'm going to use unlock gear in my next prestige for Assassin. It'll take forever to get it.

its just so hard to not have assassin now.

 

[TestOfTide]

It's not just you. Higher kill streaks are a thing of the past with the smaller maps and flanking options. This game is designed for quick lives - 4 or 5 kills per life is what I aim for, and thus, those are my killstreak options.

You really can't camp anymore.

You could always switch to support...

Support package is best thing they put in the game. I usually can get a stealth bomber halfway through the game just by being an aggressive player.

Think if I continue prestiging then I'll use my unlock gear token on claymores. They're like my staple in the past two CODs and I hated leveling up to get them this time around.

Best feature ever added in the series honestly.

 

[Kermit The Dog]

Pretty cool that you can wipe your stats at 10th prestige. Very cool!

 

[Radec]

I demand that anyone who has a legit 2.0+ kd post their best loadouts and some light strategy.

ACR(Silencer+RedDot)
MP9

Scavenger
Assassin/Hardline
Stalker/Marksman

Strike: Predator | Cobra | Pavelow

Groundwar is my main place to be. Don't rush to the next base on domination or to a dogtag in Kill Confirmed. Enemies will be waiting for you for the pickup. Don't reload after a kill. I got killed tons of times because of that.

 

[Nori Chan]

Really? The couple times I've used claymores or ran into one, they didn't really kill me.

But then again, they do unlock like at 50 something

 

[Radec]

Yeah. I tried to use the clawmore for like a 3 hours, and haven't got a single kill. I got more kills on bouncing betty than on claymore.

Maybe they nerfed the damage or people are just using Stalker Pro.

I won't waste a token on that though.

 

[NYR]

Claymores are out, move on to bouncing Betty's.

You are a brave man sir

 

[Nori Chan]

Edit: sorry for the double post

 

[Khalifa Jayy]

I love how scavenger pro gives you more ammo to start even though the whole point in running scavenger is to pick up blue bags for ammo refills. Instead of refilling tactical and lethal grenades they give you more ammo to start. Lol. Wow.

That's always been like that

 

[Radec]

Didn't know how effective Marksman really is till I've used it.

You can see their names a mile away lol.

Now my problem is Stalker vs Marksman :/

(I know specialists solves that lol)

 

[vatstep]

I think I've changed my mind about the air drop trap. For a while it seemed like people weren't falling for it, but it's gotten me a kill every time I've used it recently. Last match it got me a double kill. :lol

 

[Nori Chan]

BTW, RPGS are just as bad as in Black Ops, if not worse.

I shot it at a guys feet while he was holding still and it fucking whizzed off to the right of the wall he was at and it tickled him and he 180'd me and shot the living fuck out of me

 

[MercuryLS]

That's why its best to put it as the last perk in the specialists points streaks. By the time you kill 5 guys you will need ammo. I always disliked killstreaks, it's nice to see that I can still be rewarded for my play in other ways. When you get the specialist bonus you seriously feel like rambo, everything is so fast, running, aiming, reloading, everything. It's awesome.

I've gotten used to the maps, I like a lot of them now. Just gotta stick to interiors and hallways and I can hold my own with my class.

Also Kill Confirmed is the best thing ever. I always avoided TDM cause of the insane camping. With KC there's very little camping, if any at all. Really fun luring people into tags

 

[MechDX]

The PP90 with a silencer and focus + Endurance Pro/Assasin Pro/Steady Aim Pro is like running aorund with a fire hose that is shooting bullets instead of water! Dont even have to aim down the sights. lol It just dominates on Kill Confirmed.

 

[dmg04]

Soooo They need to add an auto kick feature to Hardcore Search. People are just taking out rocket launchers and clearing their entire team at start. Ridiculous.

 

[MercuryLS]

They should have done Ricotchet Hardcore SD. That was great in MW2, why would they change that?

 

[Mik2121]

nope


Also I hate how they moved all your weapon statistics to elite and you can't even access it. I wonder why they didn't revamp the UI with elite's UI style and just integrate it in.

:/

Seriously this.

The MW3 UI is good I guess, but the Elite UI is AWESOME. They should have completely integrated Elite inside MW3 and every other COD coming from now on.

I like how when you go into challenges it lets you know if you get an title/emblem for the next progress reward.

Same here

 

[Smokey]

Graphically the game looks awful. I'm playing on PS3 and it this engine has got to go. I know it's not because the game continually sells by the boatload, but this is atrocious.

Whoever said this was a gen ahead of Black Ops or some other hyperbole comment needs to be slapped in the head.

 

[Lionheart1827]

wat

Indeed, if your next challenge reward has a title or emblem in it, a little locked square will be under it.

 

[vatstep]

Following up my post about getting a double kill with the air drop trap — I just got a TRIPLE KILL! :lol

I guess maybe I should keep using this thing after all.

Amped.
i REALLY hope they brought back the chicken from mw2

 

[Mengetsu]

Iv been playing the past few days and im loving it. Most of my friends can't take the series anymore and says it frustrates them or their tired of it due to kids online/glitchers. Uncharted 3 MP is their friend now. Im just having a blast and playing with GAF members is just great we don't really lose a match at all. Please if anyone here is from the east coast add me on 360 GT is Matts Legacy and just leave me a message saying your from GAF cause I need some players in the day time on the east cost lol

Well I got pretty good at using them in MW2, since I almost exclusively played S&D after unlocking them.
I guess I like how if you're actually strategic with them they can be super useful.

[side note]I'm playing MW3 right now with GAF open on my laptop and...the power went out! I almost had a heart attack as my 360 powered down.
