Very nice. What did you use for the "n"? That's the only thing I can't figure out. (If it's not an issue for you if I just copy yours, of course.)Diablohead said:Nice, I made one last night also using about 9 layers I think:

In my experience, the only SMG that "dominates" is the AK74U which is already an SMG/AR hybrid a la the UMP of MW2. It's a nice gun, but I prefer having the option of using pure SMGs and being able to rush down check points and win if I'm better than the person guarding it.Stripper13 said:Agree with everything except the bolded. What the fuck?
I'm having the complete opposite experience - I'm getting decimated by SMG's and it's frustrating. Whether it be CQC, Mid-range, I get the drop, they get the drop, I'm prone, etc I lose almost always. I'm not sure which SMG(s) are doing it, but I'm considering dropping the FAMAS for one, as the move speed increase combined with insane ROF and decent damage seems to really outweigh the long range advantage of an AR.
Lol that really is the reason. I always think they take so long to get one kill, I've gotten two or three a few times but its usually one. Theyrea also a low blast radius blow. And half the time I come back dead. And I could probably get equal or more kills by playing normally without it. But they're fun!Belfast said:They're fun.

Ah, damn.aku:jiki said:Oh, thanks, hadn't thought of that. I sent a strongly worded e-mail about selling me shit I can't use as a reply to MS, but if they're just gonna jerk me around I'll do that.
Wait, I just realized that my account already is from elsewhere...it's checking my IP.
Got it, thank you. You actually only need six layers. What did you use for the highlights? Tried the moon, but it doesn't seem to really fit.Diablohead said:THe white N isn't actually anything, use 4 triangles, two for the orange part and two for the grey, use a O in white to cap the sides and then a white box in the background to show up the N, the highlights were just some extra since I had 2 layers spare.
This is a very good assessment. I only got to level 14 last night and was using the M16 up to that point. I felt that a lot of match-ups that I would normally win I was losing. Some of it felt like lag too admittedly. Then I unlocked the Famas and things just changed. I was winning all the battles and making the kills I expected. Also tried out the AK74-U and thing also rocked. I felt like I was moving very quickly too.Stoney Mason said:I find the M16 isn't as good as in prior games but if you are very accurate with your aiming it seems like it can work. The Famas is decently accurate and it spits out a lot of bullets so it feels way different than it did in MW 2. It's more a spray gun now where it seems like the M16 requires even more accuracy than it did in prior games.
-viper- said:Should I use the M16 or the FAMAS?
They probably won't. Haven't said anything about it and judging by how the PS3 version currently is, they don't really care about it either.-viper- said:Does anyone know whether Treyarch will patch in second account sign in on the PS3?

Hey Big-E, what I did was run down the left side of the hill, lay down at the first set of sand bags then once you heal up, run down the left side of the hill and hide in the room with the stationary gun. Peek out from the window and take out any enemies you can and you shoud see one of the AI kick down a barrel. If you look past him there'll be two more barrels that can be kicked down. Make your way towards them and kick the barrels down. That'll stop the infinite spawning enemy and get you a check point. Thats how I did it on Veteran.Big-E said:Need some help with the single player. I am having a real hard time beating back the NVA on the hill without getting shot to shit. Anyone have any good suggestions on how to approach this?

You and like 5 others in the thread dude! I beat it on my one day trip through Veteran difficulty lane, but I did it after 2 hours. Here's a few tips...Big-E said:Need some help with the single player. I am having a real hard time beating back the NVA on the hill without getting shot to shit.

I know, they did realize that a couple of minutes in and started to camp together. One of them ran a bit outside, probably to call out positions. It's nothing gamebreaking, it's just annoying.RedStep said:What the hell are you going to boost in a 10-credit Wager Match? If I'm not mistaken, Challenges, Contracts, and all other rewards (even XP) are null there. The maximum reward is 30 credits, which is the equivalent of about 1 minute of play in a "real" playlist.
The bottom Wager Match mode is just to get your feet wet, it's like a training mode.
Definitely don't be like me and jump into a One in The Chamber wager match with a c500 bet and lose all your credits in 3 rounds due to "oh maybe I'll get lucky if I use the same tactics as FFA"RedStep said:What the hell are you going to boost in a 10-credit Wager Match?

n0n44m said:extended mags ofcourse!
already had multiple situations where it saved my life and had me spraying down 3+ opponents without reloading
Well, you could always use Warlord too and get the best of both worlds.Raiden said:I never ever used extended mags in any of the COD's(assuming they were in the previous titles) sleight of hand fixes the problem and it gives you a faster aim. Seems like the way to go for me. But if you really like the iron sight then extended mags are pretty good i guess.
backflip10019 said:Well, you could always use Warlord too and get the best of both worlds.
Right, I was referring to Extended Mags and a scope which would eliminate the need for sleight of hand and give you a bigger clip. But then again the faster ADS that SoH gives you is really helpful too.Raiden said:If im not mistaken, i think warlord and sleight of hand are in the same perk tree.
No, on some guns sights even increase the recoil slightly.-viper- said:But does the scope improve accuracy and recoil of the weapon compared to a stock weapon? That's the question I'd really like answered.
I hope all values stay the same with the red dot sight, so that way I'll be happy to accept extended mags, especially since the sights of the FAMAS are very good.
SmokeMaxX said::lol Chopper Gunner is so broken on NukeTown. It's almost like if getting a chopper gunner on Shipment were possible. People keep spawning outside into Chopper Gunner fire. SO MANY KILLS.
Stoney Mason said:This.
SMG's are dominating from what I've experienced as I posted last night. And the most effective AR's that a lot of people are carrying are the ones that effectively function as SMG's like the Galil. I'd like to see more recoil if anything on SMG's.
Anerythristic said:A few things.
For SMGers (my favorite weapon class) the MAC-11 seems to be king. I held back saying this until I noticed I was consistently beating AK74u users gun to gun (hint: its the MAC-11s fire rate) if you like shooting your SMG past mid range I would say stick with the AK74u.
Also I am already over the RCXD. It leaves you vulnerable for too long and is ALOT of work to usually only get one kill. As of right now its off my Killstreak list in all modes except Domination where its an awesome scout that kills shit.
thats how i feel.Mr. B Natural said:From my experience it's completely random whether SMGs will be effective or not. But that kinda applies for just about all guns in this game. Sometimes it takes 2 shots to down someone, other times you'll put a whole clip into someone with steady aim and an smg at close range and they finally fall at the last bullet.
1 vs 1 combat feels more like a coin toss than any other COD game ever. Blame it on the wonky hit detection. Blame it on the heavy lag. Blame it on aim-assist that's sketchy and literally locks-on the player when it randomly decides to turn on. Blame it on ARs like the Aug that act like better smgs than smgs. Blame it on the framerate that can't stay steady. I don't care. It's b grade crap.
I was all for a COD game that was more about the gunplay than anything else (which always was the case, but people bitch) but then you have to make the gunplay better and tighter, not more wonky and dependent on things outside of my control.
MarshMellow96 said:IIRC, in older games couldn't you pick opponents based on your skill, area etc? Can you actually any of that now?
Getting tired of getting pitted against teams of level 50s...
JB1981 said:Was extremely tired while playing last night so perhaps that is coloring my latest impressions of the game, but I am very much of two minds about this game. I appreciate that Treyarch has stripped the game down to 'basics' and hasn't gone crazy with the killstreaks and overpowered perks but I also feel that in their attempt to do so, the series has lost some of its appeal and quite frankly its "magic." I am not very impressed with any of the guns I have unlocked so far. Few of them feel very good to shoot and they just don't excite me in the way that a lot of the guns from prior games in the series have. Nuketown might be the worst map I've ever seen in an FPS, yet the community constantly re-votes to play the map after every game!! I guess its a good map for racking up kills, thus the appeal to replay, but it is an awfully designed map.
I think I enjoy Array the most (is that the name?) and I like Cracked a lot as well. I feel that overall the map design is a step back from MW2 and a major step back from COD 4. I still believe COD 4 was the pinnacle of the franchise.
Ikuu said:MP is just running around with fast firing weapons and just hoping the game decides you get the kill, getting a little tiring.
maximum360 said:Unlocked the AK47. It's definitely one of the better guns even with a silencer I was getting decent kills from a distance.

That's so true. Unfortunately, I feel like this game has a steep learning curve for those who didn't play MW2 through a few prestiges, so a lot of people who just picked it up expecting to have an easygoing online experience and are getting destroyed by more experienced players. Then they immediately disregard it as being the game's fault, or lag, etc.Raiden said:So you suck at it?
Seriously, play some more. You can still do your FFA tactics. I don't do high stakes, but I do do the 1000C (weekend gambler) playlist and all I do in One in the Chamber is run and gun. I consistently get 1st or 2nd unless half the other guys are doing some hardcore camping. OitC is super lame if everyone's camping. It should be about who has the best shot/reactions as opposed to who finds the best corner. One guy camped in a spot and I just flat out spawned right in front of him, like his gun was touching my character model. I took half a step and got knifed. Horrible spawns + camping = rage.MrMister said:Definitely don't be like me and jump into a One in The Chamber wager match with a c500 bet and lose all your credits in 3 rounds due to "oh maybe I'll get lucky if I use the same tactics as FFA"
