Akimbo is still way to F'ING op I am sick of this game

The title sais it all really,

The akimbo is way to f'ing OP. People using it like total f witts, that and taking advantage of off the stupid hiding spots, and way to many tight corners. Theres just way to many spots to have to check to be able to play with any fluency and rythem. Im back to Black ops until the next Treyarch edition.

  Supermanman if you got nothing more construtive to say about an issues that is ruining the game. Why don't you quite simply piss off. The game needs arses like you as much as it needs the lag conpensator and shitty respawns. You sad pathetic 5 year old. Just incase you didn't notice I really don't give a rats arse any more IF I'm banned.
  
  Op totally Agree with you m8 way too many things that are abusive in this game and I use the word game very loosly. Sick of 10 year olds hidding in corners you can't possible get a shot into before your mowed down by an abusive amount of bullets. Worst COD to date and it really has put me off any activision titles in the future.

  coolwhhhip the fact you seem to be unable to grasp the concept of what the OP means. Maybe you should go back to bed.

  Lmao.
  
  The fmgs akimbo are like this to see who satans son, the antichrist is. Everybody who finishes the 2500 kills challenges with them & the 500 headshot challenge will be Scanned / audited, true story.
  
  Its on all my classes, Fun times. Pro tip pull them out once if you are going play play more with your primary, this will make them not do that cool but long extra reanimation effect next time you need them, meaning they switch much faster. Need to do it after every death though.

As I've said in other threads at this point I view the IW/Sledgehammer line and Treyarch line of games as different titles basically. Before BO I would have never believed I'd say it but I prefer Treyarchs line better. Not saying I don't have fun with MW3 but I'll certainly be looking forward to Treyarchs next offering.

As far as the akimbo machine pistols I have to agree they are still way too powerful. I picked up a set of akimbo FMG's off the ground used them a bit. Now as soon as I prestige I'm going to work towards getting akimbo FMG's just because they are so ridiculously good at anything inside 25 yards or so. Who needs a shotgun as secondary when you can have these things, they're better than a shotgun simply because of how accurate they are at further ranges. I would unlock them this prestige but I'm 1.5 levels away so what's the point.

  Yea agreed on the two developers being two totaly different games. Anywho iv been playing black ops today, Just feels so organised and you are rewarded for good play and punished for bad....unlike MW3 where there is just no sense or reason to anything.lol

    I do use the Akimbo as my backup and I'll admit, it is a tad strong. While were talking about turning thngs down, how about the shotgun kills from half way across the map?

Re: Akimbo is still way to F'ING op I am sick of this game

Rolling with my Red Dot, Rapid Fire, Type 95 and Akimbo FMG9s is pure bliss. I use FMG9s exclusively in tight parts of the map. I love pissing people off. Combine that with SitRep Pro so I can hear you coming from a mile away in my living room. I get most of my kills from Sound Whoring, but to have two OP weapons along iwth 5.1 surround sound, gives me an advantage I would be crazy to give up. Crouching in a corner and spraying someone I can hear coming towards me for 10 seconds is smart play. Then switching to a Type 95 and destroying his Skull hunting teammate from across the map is also smart play.

i used an RPD in MW2 and a Commando in BO, so this is my first foray into being a scum bag, and it is great fun.

Re: Akimbo is still way to F'ING op I am sick of this game

akimbo weapons are a sure sign of a bad player like the noob tubers + MLC knifers in mw2

  Who is the bad player? The guy using a gun you don't like or the guy that constantly gets killed by said gun and instead of finding a way to overcome they cry about it on the forums.
  
  Guess what... They are called Challenges... Oh and guess what Challenges do? Help you rank up! What's even better? Once you get Akimbo it makes it even easier to rank up that gun thus helping you achieve your overall goal to rank up faster!
  
  I start with the FMG9 then move to the Skorpion so on and so forth. Sue me...
  
  And to answer your question... Yes, when I spray like a mad man and take out half a team it makes me EXTREMELY happy.

  There's no praying required on the part of an FMG whore like me when you are 3 feet away when I begin to fire.

I've said this before and Lord knows I'll probably be saying this for the rest of my forum life. I f you want to be taken seriously, you need to be able to spell and use proper grammar. Right now I think that you are a 6 yr old who borrowed his mommies laptop to look like a big boy.

Up your game my friend or forever be ignored.

Re: Akimbo is still way to F'ING op I am sick of this game

The people who defend the akimbo to not be nerfed, are probaly the average players that havnt ever done very well in cod games, and have now found somthing that takes close to no skill to use and get some dirty kills with. While players like myself who would rather play cod the way cod should be (skill equals results) get punished by IW for giving a gift from above to Jo average noob in the form of lazer guided akimbo guns.

You should be able to use akimbo machine pistols as a primary only, so that way if you want to use them thats fine, but youll suffer over long range

  I agree actually, and yea I started out liking MW3. but as the f'witts discovered what was there to be abused it got less fun by the day. Im playing Black ops now, and enjoying cod again.

  Re: Akimbo is still way to F'ING op I am sick of this game
  
  i have been playing with akimbo's and shot guns swnce mw2. and i will not stop. i love killing everyone with my akimbo's if you don't like it then quit playing or stop being a pu$$y. and as far as them being op your a bigger pu$$y for saying so. when i use a shotgun or anyother gun for that matter i don't have a problem with killing the akinbo fmg players. they hardly kill me. maybe bc i can actually play. if the pu$$ys that cry about it on the forum put more effort in being better players maybe they wouldn't have such a problem with it.

Re: Akimbo is still way to F'ING op I am sick of this game

Yeah I would like to see akimbo be taken off on all the machine pistols, that way the pistols have something nothing else does so maybe they will come in to their own. Because their only real advantage is they can be pulled out quicker than anything. That's not that great of an advantage because you can just have SoH.

If only the pistols had akimbo then no more OP machine pistols and people might start using the pistols a lot more.

The go to secondary would still be the machine pistols, probably more the MP9 and FMG still because the MP9 has no recoil and the FMG has high enough RoF that its recoil isn't that bad of a trade off.

I don't know, I think that would be a good fix. Because the FMG's are the best akimbo MP's, but all of them are good akimbo'd.

Re: Akimbo is still way to F'ING op I am sick of this game

I just don't understand some peoples train of thought. People moan and moan about MW3s "balance" issues, but the end result is the same. My stats in this game are very close to what they were in Black Ops. I'm killing just as many people, dying about the same, and winning as about as much. Different game, same results. I guess it makes people feel better about getting beat when they can justify it. Ahhh who am I kidding, whenever you got owned in Black Ops, you probably blamed Ghost.
