I say...

Nerf the range on SMGs. If they want to pick people off from across the map, then force them to take the range proficiency. At the same time, this makes ARs a lot more useful in terms of being much better at mid and long range.

Increase ARs ads move speed. The ADS move speed of the AR in MW2 was about 50%. To be exact, I believe someone on the denkirson forums said that it was 47%. Bump it up a little bit.

Idk... I feel that the strafing speed in MW2 was a bit faster than in MW3. I can't say for BOPS since I haven't played it.

And if I'm not mistaken.... Stalker doesn't make your ADS move speed to 100%. I think it's only 100% for SMG. AR is bumped up to 80%. But like you said, it is more beneficial to ARs than for SMGs.

Re: MP7...

I used my prestige token to unlock the MP7 for my thrid prestige....

I came from MW2 where I only used AR's. Particularly the Scar and the Tar-21.

Once I came to MW3... I did the same thing. However, with the slow ADS move speed of the ARs, it pretty much mandated the use of Stalker.

After doing ok (K/D of ~1.00) I tried out the MP7.

It's not overpowered as a lot of smg's will still beat it in CQC. But any AR will still beat the mp7 at long range.

You have to keep in mind that if someone with a M4 or ACR sees you the same time you do with a mp7, they will most likely win. If I see someone across the screen then I try not to confront them. Especially if they have seen me first (aka... Camping for long distance shots). Just go around.

The MP7 is pretty much like what someone said before. It is a hybrid between a SMG and AR. I play like I do with an AR which is cautiously and staying out of the areas in which the adrenaline filled 12 year olds are running around with the striker and the pp90m1. I stay back and play like I have a AR. The benefit is not having to get stalker which lets me get things such as dead silence or sitrep.
