    also you don't have to use it right away. If you get a UAV at 3, you can wait to use it until later and you won't lose it. The game will just use whatever killstreak you got last first. So if you get a Harrier later, you will use the Harrier first, then you will still have the UAV to use if you saved it.

    Any general gameplay tips? Every time I watch my death, these guys just know exactly where I am... I use the map and radar as best I can, but it's unreal the way I die sometimes...

    A habit a lot of people have is that when they kill someone, or multiple people, they stay in the same area and wait for the same thing to happen. With the kill cam they know where you are so they will almost always go a different way and kill you.

    Also, take your time and use flash/stun/frag nades often when your entering a new room and crouch when you shoot as well.

    I suck but those are 2 I learned pretty quick :lol:

    360?

    I'm pretty much the same way as far as online. My favorite map is def. Karachi. I'm pretty sick in this map. Probably because people can't gank me from all sides :lol:

    What really boggles my mind is when I'm going 1-1 and I'm aiming at their head/chest and they kill me by shooting me in the legs... WTF? I'm not that slow on the draw... (although I could be better).

    I realized when I was playing last night that there are a lot of people out there who have been playing non stop since the release date. I've got about 10 hours of online in and I'm level 27. I was in a game of domination last night and the other team had 2 guys that are prestige and over level 30. That is 100 level ups! No surprise that they each ended games with a 40-10 k/d ratio. They were both schooling me.

    I have to change my playing style totally in this game. In MW1 and WAW I was a "run and gunner", always moving and shooting on the run. This game calls for stealth and dare I say camping.

    Just went 17-8 in afghan. The vector is a pretty sweet gun, it's ROF is so much better for a n00b. I just ruined them. 2 of my deaths were from ****ing helicopters too...

    ETA: I had a couple of solid games today, including my best ever 21-6. The AC130 is ****ing awesome. Helicopter piloting is a blast too. I also got owned by a proximity mine (the one with lasers). First time I ever saw those. I'm really glad I went with this over L4D2. I haven't had this much fun with multiplayer since Counter-Strike years ago. One game I went 12-6 and probably knifed 7 of those kills. So.Much.Satisfaction. 4 more close kills and I get the Ninja perk.


    A quick questions for the vets out there. What guns are you guys playing with and with what add-ons?

    that proximity mine is called a claymore and those 'lasers' are the direction of the explosion since it is directional.

    Beat the game last night, not sure what to think. I think Inifinity Ward is going a bit overboard on the story.

    Played some online also and got up to 26 I think. Had been trying out the TAR since I love that gun, but had to switch back to the M4. All the high damage assault rifles have to much recoil for my playstyle. I really don't run and gun or camp, so I need the versatility the M4 brings with the high rate of fire and the decent range with the thermal scope.

    there are two maps I absolutely hate right now. Estate is a camp fest in that stupid house at the top of the hill, and the Sub base turns into a spawn kill fest since you spawn in the open all the time.

    I never camp (accept when I'm sniping during death matches) but this game is going to turn me into a camper. EVERYONE camps in this game regardless of game mode.

    I prefer to play "Domination" or "Headquarters" but MW2 has turned those game modes into camp fests. No one goes for the headquarters, they camp out near the headquarters and pick people off as they are going to try and capture it. I totally understand camping once your team has captured the "Headquarters" but camping with no intention of capturing it?

    I think as good as this game is IW royally messed up with multiple things.

    1.) The maps are made for camping. There are too many areas where you can sit in cover and have an open view of spawn points and areas of entry into the flag zones. There are not enough maps that make people keep moving.

    2.) The spawn points are DREADFUL. IW needs to get their asses in gear with a patch. I've been killed right at spawning by a camper at least a dozen times.

    3.) The kill streak rewards. Quite simply, they are ruining the game for me because they are indirectly leading to people not playing the game properly. When you are playing "Domination" or any other "objective" style match you are playing to capture the OBJECTIVE. The killstreak rewards are too enticing to not camp. I played a game of Domination last night and my team won the game 200-0. The issue is, the other team ended up with 3 players with over 30 kills. They had 2 AC190's and multiple choppers. they did not even attempt to capture the flag one time.

    4.) The weapons are all over powered. I'm not bitter about it because I can't shot but I find it hilarious that I'm able to shot guys that are barely visible from across the map with a P90. Weapon balance is always an issue with COD games and this one is no different.

    I've got the same perks, but I love my semi-auto M21E with silencer and the thermal scope. It's nice to pop fools heads from across the maps.:up:
    P.S. I should hit Prestige 1 tonight.

    Just had my best game. I went 26-8 at quarry. Two of my deaths were spawn kills too.

    I've also come to the conclusion that Stopping power is 100% necessary to play this game online... So many ****ing people use it and if you're not, you're SOL. I went from losing head to head matchups more than 50% of the time (even when I struck first, right in their chest) to winning probably 70%ish if not more. I like the concept of cold-blooded, but it's really worthless in practice.

    I disagree about cold blooded. It is worthwhile in most situatation for me. I like being invisible when people call in Predators, air strikes, AC 130s, etc. Also I don't have the stupid heartbeat monitor camper guy finding me either. It's not on my primary build, but if I'm running into campers it's a go to perk.

    Blocking heart beat monitors comes from Ninja, not CB. Although I do love not being seen by sentry guns, AC130, helicopters, etc... When I stopped using CB, I completely forgot what it was like to be targeted by that ****. In Derail I was killed twice by a sentry gun because I wasn't paying attention to what perk I had instead of CB.

    Has anyone tried One Many Army? It lets you switch classes on the spot (replacing secondary). I think that **** could be awesome. Right now I'm using bling to fill some attachment requirements for my M16 and will be doing so for my ACR when I get it in 3-4 level ups.

    crap, not quite there yet haha. haven't got one man army yet either.

    side note, the one perk I can't find a use for is jammer. It sounds useful but to me it is more like announcing when you are around. whenever i get jammed I start slinking around trying to find the guy

    The m4 and scar are tight. Scar does more damage but the m4 fires more quickly. the m4 has more bullets too which is nice if you don't have extra mags or scavenger. The FAMAS is basically the m16 but it has lower damage but quicker bursts.

    The Aug (light machine gun) is alright, but looks ****ed up on the screen IMO. The sub machine guns are love and hate for me. They suck balls at range, but do a lot of damage quickly at normal/smaller range. They def have some recoil though. I hear the P90 silenced is sick. I think I'm going to experiment with SMG at some point soon.

    I'm 2 1/4 levels away from the ACR, which I hear is the m4 but jacked way the **** up. Pretty much better in every way. I hear it's godly. I def. want to try the AK47, but that's level 70 **** and I'm far far from it. I hear it's sick though.

    I agree completely. It puts me on alert. Stick with cold blooded if you want to be hidden. Perk tier 3 does suck though. Not many goodies there besides Ninja, which is awesome once you get Ninja pro.

    I can't seem to get away from sleight of hands pro, everytime I take it off I end up getting frustrated and outgunned in panic situations. That faster aiming is just too much of a lifesaver for me to take it off most of my builds.

    I got the AK last night. It has got to be the most rediculously over-powered gun in the game. I was destroying people across the map with it using metal sights...I love the M21E but I fear the AK will rule all until they make some adjustments in a future patch.

    Loving the shotty (Spas and the new one I just got). Just owned a bunch of mother ****ers with it on Sub base.

    Edit; ran out of ammo for my ACR and proceeded to **** up 5 rushing morons with the Spas at underpass. I went 19-5. 2/5 of my ****ing care packages got stuck out of bounds though. Lame as hell.

    you can only cap the flag when yours is at home, so until your team kills their flag runner you will be stuck holding the flag and nowhere to go with it. It gets pretty tense sometimes, too, with that 'kill' indicator over your head :lol:

    Ditto on all your points except spawn spoints. On some maps they are better than others. I think IW winged on a few of the maps to make Tactical Insertion more useful. LOL

    Camping is no fun for me. So K/D ratio be dammned - I'll continue to run and gun until I know the maps like the back of my hand. Then I'll know where campers like to camp and the safer routes from point a to point b.

    After starting out the worst player in this game's history, I've got my K/D around 1 (I think .98). This is pretty accurate for the most part. I think my true K/D ratio as of now is probably 1.3. Although I've made strides, I'm not that good of a player.

    My aim is mediocre. I don't know how to improve it, but until I do I've hit a wall.

    Akimbo 1887 shotguns is the LAMEST thing in the entire game. It out shames camping, noob tubing, and grenade spamming! I created a class just to use against teams that use them:

    SCAR w/ Grenade launcher
    thumper
    blast shield
    scavenger
    danger close
    last stand

    if their going to lame it up with with an unbalanced gun I'm coming for you with the lamest class ever created. I will noob tube you from across the map, scavenge your body and do it again and again until you quit.

    Play on the Hardcore maps and then you can use cold blooded again. Agree that stopping power is required on normal maps, I'm useless with and without it though. :) Kill/death ratio of 0.65 so far and I've played online for 19 hours. :no: Just can't aim quickly or well enough.

    I totally suck online as well. I keep playing though in the hopes that I'll get better weapons but it's not happening. I'm up to level 33. Ground War Domination should be just that, no death match included.
