Wow, thanks a lot folks. The info is great. Update, I'm now a level 80 and have most of my perks to pro. I use the ACR a lot followed by the PP90M. I'm currently running mostly Assault with Slight of Hand, Hardline and Stalker. My k/d is improving but not great. I'm having more and more 14 - 20 kill games with fewer deaths. I'm about to reach the 1 month level of playing. I did get dropped into a clan game last night where everyone had a headset. They kinda made me one of the own for a few games and helped me a lot. Real nice guys. Couldn't believe how friendly they were. Sure did make the game a whole lot more fun being able to run with folks and communicate. I guess I'll be looking for a clan and hopefully can find one with nice people. I'm in the central US and play most everynight and am very active. If someone has a suggestion, I'd appreciate it. Thanks again for the tips.

Look guys and gals, I'm an old guy who has always been a gamer. I had systems way before Atari 2600 and have owned every system since. Here's the run down, I got my son an XBOX for Christmas which gave me the PS3 back. I've never gotten into the multi-player side of COD, just the campaigns and spec ops stuff. I've completed all the campaigns on every COD. So, during the Christmas break, I decided to give it a try. So I created an account and started playing multi-player. At first I got frustrated at the fact that I would take a few steps and die. Seemed like I had some sort of bullet magnet attached to me. But after a few games and getting killed 150 times, I started to do a little better. Now. I know I'm playing an old, unsupported game by playing MW3 but it's all I have at the moment. Plus, it seems like there are still a lot of people playing it. So here are my questions. First, having never played multi before, where should I be by week 3? I only play for a few hours here and there and I'm a level 65. Is that decent? Secondly, what the heck is this Prestige stuff? How do you do it? Is there an online guide that explains what it is? What makes it special? Should an old guy like me even worry about it? lol Third, what are clans? Is there one for beginners? Should I even join one? Why would I join one? Lastly, I have a headset but dont currently use it. Should I? I'm just an ordinary father, husband kind of guy and don't get into verbal bashing and trash talking. So I figured I didn't need a headset while playing. I know I'm a noob and suck at this game. Didn't figure I needed a headset to listen to a bunch of people tell me I suck. My kills are still pretty low but I'm getting better. I average around 8 - 10 per game. I've had a few good ones where I got 17 - 20. I mostly play TDM but am looking at some of the others. Lastly, any advise for a new guy? Games to play where I am not so out matched? Anything would be appreciated. I'm SOA_FAN1 so add me if you want. Maybe someone will actually want to help an old guy out. Thanks.
