any official news to fix the spawn points?

 

[Ivan A Nguyen]

any official news to fix the spawn points?

Are you being spawned into walls? Because that would probably be something they fixed. If you are being spawned then shot, then I doubt they will fix that.

 

[Procarbine]

Why use Steady Aim with an SMG when the differences are negligible? Use Dead Silence instead.

Tmartn - Weapon Proficiency Test

Start at 2:00 to see the SMG testing. ADS is a little bit better with Steady Aim but hip-firing there is no difference.

Kick isn't Steady Aim. Steady Aim is worth it, Kick is not.

My favorite loadout right now for Kill Confirmed and TDM:

Weapons:
ACR with silencer and red dot
USP .45

Grenades:
Grenade
Falshbang

Perks:
Sleight of Hand Pro
Hardliner Pro
Stalker Pro

Specialist Package:
Blind Eye Pro
Assassin Pro
Dead Silence

I basically become invisible.

This is starting to irritate me. My NAT is still Strict and I can barely join games. PS3 connection test returns NAT Type 2 which is open. I have tried putting the PS3 in a DMZ. I have assigned the PS3 a static IP. I have moved from wireless to wired. MW3 still says Strict. The 360 version of Black Ops says Open.

What am I doing wrong here? Do I need to open ports? I don't think there is anything else I can do here.

If the PS3 says open but the game doesn't, then yeah that sounds like a port issue. But putting it on the DMZ should've fixed that.

Plug directly into the modem bypassing your router. If the problem still exist, contact your internet service provider. If it goes away, try forwarding ports since you have done everything else. If that still doesn't work, you probably have to get another router.

 

[Smokey]

What's weird is Black Ops on 360 says Open. It's not in a DMZ. It doesn't have a static IP either.

So frustrating.

 

[bobs...onGaf]

So which Sniper do people think is the best one?

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

31-10

Fuck yeah. I'm doing much better in this than I ever have in any other COD game. I actually have a positive KDR for once. I don't actually care about my KDR, but yeah, I seem to be dominating way more than I usually do. Maybe once people play the game more I'll start to get raped more often

 

[X-Frame]

I rarely used SMG's in MW2 but I feel like in this game SMG's are perfect for my playstyle. I'm constantly running into enemies in hip-fire ranges.

I personally think the P90 is the best one mostly because of the huge clip.

 

[madmaxx350]

what does it looks like to your teammates when you tag enemies with the recon drone? Do they just show up as orange dots like a regular UAV?

No, Like the BlackBird's

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

So which Sniper do people think is the best one?

The one that just quickscoped my foot and killed me in one shot.

 

[TacticalFox88]

Can't wait for the Modern Warfare 3 retrospective in a couple of months. :lol

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

No, Like the BlackBird's

That's good to hear, I use the shit out of recon drone.

 

[Syph Medwes]

For those that have gotten a M.O.A.B., do you unlock an emblem or callsign for getting one?

 

[knitoe]

No, Like the BlackBird's

I hate those recon drones. Assassin doesn't protect you against them. And, you have to manuay try to shoot them down, because for some odd reason, they also carry flares so can avoid stinger missile. A attack helicopter doesn't but a toy helicopter does. What...

 

[GQman2121]

With the Assassin perk, do you still show up on the map when you fire a non silenced weapon?

Yep.

Why don't you go Assassin Pro before Blind Eye Pro? I feel like that's more useful to have early on than having immunity to killstreaks.

 

[Procarbine]

No, there are no challenges/emblems/titles associated with MOAB.

Grenade.

Nah. Rather carry flash / stun for campers. There's way more of them than recon drone. They are just annoying and can ruin my deadly silence flanking style.

I use sitrep, so EMP grenade gets a lot of use on claymores, bouncing betties, IMS and all the other junk.

Speaking of which, here's a video on how explosives still don't suck.

Some cool bouncing betty kills.

I run sitrep too, but I just shoot the explosive devices. Only switch to dead silence against someone using headset.

Why shoot them and put yourself in sight when you can simply toss a grenade from cover?

Whelp.

 

[Ellimem]

For some reason I lost the ability to judge how far away I need to be from an explosive to shoot it. I have ended myself at least a dozen times from blowing myself up.

My jaw dropped

 

[knitoe]

Most of the time, they are set behind walls. I just shoot through the walls. They don't see me. I need the flash/stun to disorient the camper sitting behind them. EMP destroys the explosive device, but does nothing to the guy waiting to shoot someone walking through the door.

Sure it does, it shuts off any electronics he has on. I've gotten more use out of my EMP grenade than stun grenades, but perhaps my playstyle is different.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Alright, DewXP friends. Got some more duplicate codes to trade.

What I have:
-- MTN DEW PERKS

What I need:
-- MTN DEW WEAPS
-- MTN DEW MAPS
-- DORITOS STRIKE

I will accept the first request I get for each.

http://www.rankupxp.com/Dashboard/Index/cardExchange/874366262414

MW3 CHARS is now off the table. I still have MTN DEW PERKS to trade.

 

[a Master Ninja]

If you get Call of Duty Elite 6 months from now, do you get access to the MW3 content already released or would you have to buy it piece-meal?

 

[knitoe]

Most guns have good iron sights, at least that's my loadout. So, EMP does really nothing to the player. Even if they are using red dot, is it really that hard killing someone walking through the a door if the dot doesn't appear. Now, if the EMP phsyically hinders/disorients the players, that would be another story.

 

[vyperzero]

i cant beat Z :<

 

[TacticalFox88]

What in the flying fuck? How in the hell are you guys getting these GODLY connections? ;_;

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

I hate that whenever someone posts a connection speed picture you get 50 others trying to top it or show how shitty theirs is by comparison.

There's an OT thread for this stuff, guys.

 

[Syph Medwes]

Thanks.

He has 0 ping so still better.

Any parties going on on Xbox 360? I sent a bunch of invites through the GAF tag

I think you get access to all previously released DLC.

 

[DRE Fei]

MSR, Barrett (my favorites) and AS50 I think are the best. L118A is good too, but more because of the high character mobility factor.

Kick isn't Steady Aim. Steady Aim is worth it, Kick is not.

The hip fire accuracy with steady aim on the SMGs is outrageous. I've gone entire games doing nothing but hip firing.

Also, the M4 is amazing. Who cares about the ACR?

I never understood the appeal of them either. Maybe it's just because I never care about numbers.

I can't say I'm a big fan of Interchange :/ As far as the new game modes go, Kill Confirmed is soooo good. It's all I've been playing.

Agreed, Interchange and Carbon are my least favourite maps.

 

[BlueScrote]

Carbon has definitely grown on me. I think Downturn is my least favorite. I still haven't made heads or tails of how the tunnel is laid out.

 

[Karl2177]

So Elite is still borked. I can't say I'm surprised that the service doesn't work, but it's really disappointing to not have it work even a week after launch.

 

[Jrmint]

Carbon is fun. It's a blast with that PP90 setup.

I'd say my favorite maps are Bootleg, and Underground at the moment.

Really hate Village.

I've entered about 5 of the contests. It's working in limited capacity.
