Just got range for the Spaz..let the fun times begin! (fun times in hardcore, that is)
Put the Desert Eagle as my secondary for a few of my classes. Been using that lately.
Also been using the MK14 with thermal and the M60 (sometimes with thermal as well).
Sitrep Pro unlocked a few moments ago. Now I just need a pair of turtle beaches lol. Not a big deal though. I do perfectly fine with the regular 360 headset. I'm too impatient to wait and try to soundwhore someone lol. Not my playstyle.
So far, I've hijacked 11 enemy crates. 200 is so far away

How many PS3 players are in this thread? I wouldn't mind trying to organize a couple of session just to get a player base started.
I am on the east coast of the US. I would assume holding sessions on the weekend would be best in terms of flexibility.
Interests? Thoughts?

Nobody is active on the 360 clan lol. We haven't been enlisted in several operations because our leader hasn't been active and then when we are enlisted, in about 75% of them nobody even plays lol. Acutally, 75% is generous. About 90-95% of them, nobody plays. But once in while, somebody feels like doing one, so they play and we get a bronze medal since one person decided to play. Now theres 3 operations a weekend and we participate in maybe 1-2 a month.
When clan ops came out, our clan was lvl 27 with 25 xp needed for lvl 28. We still haven't hit lvl 30 for 6 hours of double xp and it's been several months since they came out in February. We've barely gained 2 levels.
But i guess one or two people doing clan ops is more active than none. We've never had more than 2 people participate in the same clan op.
EDIT: We should be hitting lvl 30 soon though after our placement in the operation yesterday and be getting our long overdue 6 hours of double xp. Back in february when the operations launched, i was starting 11th prestige because they just added them. Now, i'm at the very very end of 19th prestige and once i start 20th, double xp doesn't even matter to me anymore. That shows how much of a fail both the xbox360 and ps3 elite clans have been lol.

Yeah, i'm sure if clan ops launched when the game did in november, our clan would've leveled up at a decent rate. People that didn't even know about them would have their stats count towards it just by naturally playing the clan ops's game mode during the alotta time coincidentally and others would definitely be into it with the game being in its prime.
Yeah I was super active in November and December as were a lot of other people here. That was a complete botch along with a ton of other things with how Elite has been handled, which is part of why there is no way I am on board with Elite next year or forward, assuming I even get Blops 2 (the overwhelming majority of my friends will be favoring Halo 4 this year unless that turns out to be a wash, and it comes out a week before Blops soooo). Surprisingly the biggest downside to Elite was actually that most of my friends didn't get it, as they usually would wind up dropping every game (Halo, CoD, etc) after 1-2 map packs, so they didn't see the value in it. As a result Elite has done me very little good since I'm only able to really play the maps with any frequency once they're available for everyone. I don't really regret it since I got the Hardened Edition (so Elite was only $40), but I'm perfectly content to just wait it out next time.

So you'd rather wait and pay $20 extra for content you'd play anyway?
I'd rather save $20 and have it earlier. Even if i don't play it, i saved $20.

Yeah now it's perfect, but in the beginning we kept missing them :S
Here are quotes from earlier in the thread:
It's no big deal now though since we're enlisting reguarly. I was just pointing out how inactive our clan is/was.

Maybe that means Noriega will play more MW3 with me?

haha my k/d barely moves at 75,500 career kills. It takes like 30 consistently good matches to move it .001 .... 22,000 kills is bad too. 3,000 isn't that much. Whenever i have that on monthly leaderboards, my k/d can change after just 1 or 2 matches and that doesn't even show the k/d to the thousandth place lol.

lol i'll be no use for that. i think i've gotten the challenge for getting 10 knife kills in a prestige once.
Actually twice, because i've been playing infected this prestige and infected gets you knife kills but whenever i play normal game modes, i never get knife kills.
Even back in black ops, my knife ratio was like i died to the knife 5 times more than i got knife kills and whenever i looked at anybody elses playercard, they had more knife kills than deaths.

Thanks for posting this. Apparently it leaked earlier too, but activision is still being nazis and taking videos down on the last day of july. I swear they have like a whole section of their company dedicated to this. Too bad theres no release date of this posted anywhere. Anyway, i'm looking forward to it, moreso than the multiplayer maps lol.

you're my favorite deputy
now that timmy finally finished the map thing i'll actuallly place face off now
That's assuming I'm buying ALL the DLC, which I'm not. Like I said in my post, my friends peter out of games after 1-2 DLC packs pretty much no matter what. So that's either $15 or $30 max, as opposed to either $40 (assuming that the do a similar setup with the Hardened edition on Blops 2 coming with a year of Elite) or $50 (buying it regular). I'd be paying $10-20 more to play maps early with none of my friends.
Also I talked to several of my friends today and literally no one is buying Blops 2 day one because of Halo, so I'm certainly not getting the Hardened Edition of that (again, assuming the bundle it with a year of Elite for $99 again). In hindsight Blops is probably my favorite multiplayer CoD game, and if it wasn't coming out a week after Halo 4 I'd probably be willing to bite again since I'm willing to give Treyarch the benefit of the doubt even after MW3, but it's not to be (for me, obviously everyone has their preferences). At the end of the day I generally roll with whatever my friends are playing honestly.

I see what you're saying man. Makes sense. It's annoying how the last DLC comes out in September this year for xbox and october for PS3, when in the past they were never even close to this late. I'd rather have the last dlc come out earlier and have the content drops happen more frequently, rather than have dlc last all the way til the next call of duty. So some PS3 elite users might have saved $10-$20, but only get like 3-4 weeks of playing the final dlc lol. But at that point, the final dlc is practically free.

Lasts forever, making it extremely useful in search and destroy. It's pretty much a guaranteed death for you once you're tagged. Try and go do something objective because you're going to die anyway.
More than likely, but a reasonable explanation might be a Counter-UAV being up.

Well you just have 6 hours that you get for your next 6 hours of in game time, so you can just not play til a real double xp weekend xP
So for example, i still have 6 hours of double xp left because i haven't played, but u have less double xp than me. It takes a while to lose 6 hours of double xp anyway.
And i would've rather had it right away because i'm just about to begin 20th prestige.

IW posted some balance changes on their Facebook page:
Damn, I know a couple dudes that swear by the FAD; they'll probably be pretty happy. Cool to see them try to buff the rest out of irrelevancy.

Damn. I already love the FAD and the UMP45. I can't imagine them being even better.

It just earns you double xp and in game emblems. We won't be earning double xp again for a while since we just hit that benchmark tho. I'm think you can get the in game emblems after the clan has unlocked them if u join late, but not sure though.
Btw i knew your name rang a bell when you sent me an xbl friend request. I went to a different website and looked to see if ur gamertag was there, but after refreshing this forum i was like "Ohh theres where Bruiser Bear is from!" lol....so i added u now.

2v2 on Vortex has the worst spawns I've ever seen in a multiplayer game. Multiple "<5 feet behind the other guy" spawns in a single game. What the fuck? Do they playtest?

I was thinkin that gun could become a lot better haha because it's already decent the way it is but who knows how exactly they buffed it.

UMP was always garbo compared to the PP90, P90, and MP7.

rangersfan414

But there will always be guns that are better than others in a category unless you make the same exact gun with just different appearance. So if u buff the UMP then u buff MP5 then u buff P90 then u buff PM-9 then u buff MP7 then u buff PP90 and then u restart if you're gonna use the theory that the others are better.

Private match demolition on faceoff maps doesn't work at all. Also, from what i've noticed spawns in faceoff maps are very strange.
It might be alotta fun to play 6 v. 6....but i don't think they can handle it lol.
I've played 18 man free for alls on them before and they're fun....but they aren't really like "normal" call of duty, just like it wouldn't be "normal" demolition on a faceoff map.

They are live for XBOX360 and PS3. Don't know what you were testing, but it definitely is.
I've seen PS3 gameplay that confirms the update, as well as XBOX360 gameplay.
An example is that the M16s firerate got increased from 780rpm to 900rpm and they also increased the range a bit, so one shot kills can be achieved at a further range, similarly to how they decreased the type 95s range earlier in the year.
EDIT: I mean earlier in the call of duty year. They nerfed the type95 in 2011 lol.

I was thinking about TDM or Headquarters but I don't really have faith they could place the objectives right or do the spawns good etc.
I played a game online and tried it but none of the damages seemed different. I'll try again; there was probably some stupid update delay somewhere. I'll try to find a video to compare my version number.
