Re: 1 in 10 FFA matches is won by a booster with tac insert....

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 29 Apr 2012 11:22:48 GMT

I never see any boosters in MW3, and pretty much all I play is FFA. Am I just lucky or something?

Meh, I wish I came across more of them, my Booster Justice class just sits there gathering dust. Was so much fun in MW2. *Notices red flickers and throws C4* Oh baby, a triple.

That Sniper That Never Really Got a Chance.

Yes, I speak of the Dragunov. This thing owns, seriously... In Hardcore. I usually despise Hardcore but the past couple days I've been addicted to this gun, and needless to say, Hardcore is usually the place it does best. What with everything in MW3 one-shotting you, even in core, a 2-hit Sniper generally isn't going to be much use, top that off with tiny ass maps and guns with non-existant recoil, the Drag is garbage at best.

Don't give me that ''Aim for the head'' BS because we all know 9/10 times your not going to have even close to enough time before you get popped across the map with an ACR.

The Barrett, L118A and MSR are all extensively used, and I even see the occasional RSASS every now and then, granted it's coupled with Kick, ACOG, and a Rapid Fire controller, but still, I see it used.

Where's the love for the Dragunov? Am I the only one who thinks this gun should be modified a little so it can compete?

Has Anyone Noticed??

That the Akimbo USP's have the same knife glitch animation as in MW2? Oh wait, I forgot, no one uses pistols in this game. Or any other secondary. Everyone rolls those stupid akimbo machine pistols.

Trollface is worse when he's got a point.

It's unfortunate how much truth there is to that.

Re: Sniping really worth the frustration?

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 02 Mar 2012 17:57:38 GMT

Is it worth the effort? It is if you get bored sh*tless with all the unoriginal BS classes you see every game none-stop. AR's are OMFG easy mode. SMG's too. And LMG's. And after a certain amount of time, Snipers too. This game has zero challenge to it. That's not me acting cocky, it's just stating a fact. They designed it so that even the worst kind of player possibly imaginable, can go 54-0.

Me? I run around like a maniac in SND with C4 and a Desert Eagle.

Do They Even Know They are Playing a Video Game??

When your playing say Dom or Demo or pretty much any objective gamemode, here's a little tip, now take notes. PLAY THE F***ING OBJECTIVE. IT'S NOT OPTIONAL. I WILL STAB AND TEABAG YOU AND GENERALLY ANNOY YOU UNTIL YOU GET UP OFF THE FLOOR FROM YOUR LITTLE DARK CORNER AND GO PLANT A BOMB. Simultaneously somehow managing to also be playing the objective myself whilst annoying you. I'm cool like that.

Seriously though, they don't even killwhore, at least that would be slightly useful to the team. They just sit in a corner with a claymore and a Type 95. All game. GTFO.

Sorry, old topic, I know. Just been running into a lot of pubs today where I'm the only one on my team actually doing something.

Re: What's Changed In the Past Few Days??

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 29 Feb 2012 19:14:55 GMT

Don't get me started on the BS lag comp. And your absolutely right, they do appear to One-shot me every time I run into someone. I can't turn a corner without having my head blown off instantly.

I've got a 19ms Ping connection. I pay for a good connection to play XBL on, and it's f***ing ridiculous to suggest that I have to suffer because someone else is playing on a free Wi-fi connection from McDonalds.

What's Changed In the Past Few Days??

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 29 Feb 2012 18:20:56 GMT

Not a rant thread, just actually wondering what's changed in the past few days in-game.

In the past 16 hours or so of gameplay, aside from various air support, Type 95, Bouncing Betty/Claymore, Spawn F***ed related deaths, all I've died from is either the ACR or the MP7. Literally, every time I die, one of them is there. I'm seeing P90's, UMP's, and various AR's in the killfeed, but I can't seem to die by anything other than those two guns. It's actually weird, like something's going on, because no other guns are killing me. Last night I actually took note that I hadn't died from other guns in over 7-8 or so matches of Dom, in various lobbies I might add.

What's changed? Why are these two guns suddenly infinately more rampant than they usually are? Or is it just me?

I find it amusing that your naive enough to think either Activision or IW care about anything you or anyone else has to say.

Re: Oh my Feed!!

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 27 Feb 2012 22:44:17 GMT

Is that really how consistant the shotguns have become since the patch?

Just from the look of it I get a bad feeling, what with all the tiny a** maps in MW3 I hope we don't have a repeat of the whole MW2 Spaz 12 kind of issue.

Re: Lol

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 27 Feb 2012 22:36:59 GMT

They were going negative by around 15 deaths, ignoring the objective in Demo and simply trying to killwhore. He had multiple potential moments to defuse, instead he continued to run around like a dumbass and the end result was we won the match.

I couldn't stop laughing long enough to type a coherent message in reply.

Lol

Just got told to stop Hard Scoping...

Sorry, this BS just cracks me up.

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 08:54:28 GMT

Who didn't see it coming? People asked for a Buff, and it's IW, so of course they are going to go all out and just make them incredibly stupid.

Very soon the ''MODEL 1887 OP'' threads will start rolling in.

Re: Which are You Really Against?

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 21:27:57 GMT

^Quite true, often I find they are so blinded by rage if something like Killcam lag comes up, they immediately dismiss it, ignorant as they are, even though they have absolutely no idea what they are talking about.

Surely, the experienced player who's witnessed Killcam lag multiple times know's better than some guy who's got it into his head that there is nothing more to it than ''The hit box is the size of a football stadium, you don't need to aim at people or even ADS properly'' despite those arguments being disproved pretty much every day.

Link me to this video, I'm interested in seeing it. All I've ever witnessed on live-capped gameplay is shots hitting where they should.

Re: Which are You Really Against?

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 16:42:38 GMT

All I do is Snipe, all I have ever done is Snipe in COD, it was the same in MW2 and Black Ops. I've regularly noticed it, rarely do I hit a shot I should have missed.
Hell, I do hate to bring it up, but just look up any random montage or those insufferably repetative episodes they have all got into doing now. It's a poor example but try paying attention to where they shoot.

Re: Which are You Really Against?

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 16:31:15 GMT

1, 2 and 3 can all be explained by the laggy killcam's in COD. Pay no attention to them. Only bringing the scope half way up never works, nor does firing somewhere close to your target.

I've had perfectly accurate shots look like they were at least 3 feet off in Game Winning Killcam's. It's all bullshit.

Which are You Really Against?

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 16:16:28 GMT

This will not turn into a ton of arguments in the comments, I'm just going to delete the thread if you can't have a civilized discussion with other human being's without resorting to childish name-calling because your so narrow minded that even the thought of someone having a seperate opinion is simply inconcievable.

I do hate to add to all the pointless controversy over the infamous ''Kw1K Sc0pah's'' that's going on at the moment, but this thought popped into my head and I simply needed an answer, I'm just like that.

Now be honest with yourself, which are you really against? The effects of Quick Draw on the Snipers, or are you just generally infuriated by the thought of someone aggressively running around with a Sniper Rifle? Or is it that you have just decided regardless of perks like Quick Draw, that running around with a Sniper Rifle Drag Scoping and Quick Scoping and so fourth is just plain f***ing cheap and people who do it should drop dead?

Personally speaking, a week into the game's release and I had already had enough of people Quick Scoping me every freaking time I popped around a corner, having said that, I get annoyed from dying in general. I don't think it had that much to do with actually being Sniped. But, much to my disappointment, I couldn't deny IW overdid it with Modern ****fest 3. Really, not that everything isn't totally over the top in this game, fully automatic recoil less Sniper Ri... I mean ACR's. There's also Akimbo FMG's, Type 95's which I'm pretty sure I am still getting one-shotted by on full health in CORE, not 2 or 3, just one bullet is enough, spawn's specifically designed to repeatedly screw you over Don't lie to yourself. The spawns are designed for that, and you know it, but I'm getting into rant mode.

Original point - they overdid Quick Draw. I can't actually bring myself to disagree anymore that Snipers coupled with Quick Draw can now be more effective at Medium to CQB ranges than AR's or SMG's. It is for lack of a better word, overpowered. MW2 was borderline, but this is just wrong. The scope in speed allows it to compete with full auto's at close ranges in any number of scenario's. Say you both simultanously ADS and fire equally fast, which is now a very plausable occurance, who's going to win? Sniper or AR? At that point it comes down to Damage, Accuracy of the player, and ROF, right? The bolt action only needs one bullet to hit, throwing damage, accuracy, and ROF all out of the equation. If the Sniper hit's, he's still gonna have taken damage, but he's not the one that's dead.

COD4 Style, Assassin Sniping. Pointless considering how fast you die in this game, but I can do it without feeling cheap, and it's great when you can still consistantly wipe out other lesser Snipers that are using Quick Draw.

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 06:16:41 GMT

Don't come on the forums looking for advise for one, that's not going to work. Everyone here is very bias and very angry, generally an anti-Sniper kind of place.

The only advise I can give that will actually work for you is practice. The more time you spend, the more consistant you become.

And stop treating it like a playstyle. If you run around with a sort of ''Quick Scope everything that moves'' mentality you are just going to fail. React to each individual situation accordingly. If he's close, go for the quick kill. If he's at long range, for the love of God, just scope in and shoot.
