Akimbo FMG9 put 2000 rpm of lead at enough range to take down air support faster than stingers Thanks to Woody for this demonstration.....thoughts?

FMG users = F@Gs. Plain As. No Skill. No talent. Shoot > Kill > Repeat. Real Fun that is.
FMGs suck and anyone who uses them are noob losers who need all the help you can get!.
While I do agree that they are stupid, I am now of the feeling that if you can't beat them, join them. Why should I get shredded by them and sit there and moan how OP'ed they are, I might as well whip out some myself and give a bit of their own medicine until it gets tweaked.
Exactly, I am sick of taking the moral high ground on things like this. I have a class with akimbo FMG9s and steady aim, but I won't use them unless some moron in the other team starts using them, then it's every man for himself.
As for the video, all I can say is....WTF? Surely this video alone proves just how overpowered these things are, that was basically the other side of the map he was hitting that heli from, thats more range than some ARs lol
They shouldn't be able to take out air support, in previous COD's only the LMG's were really effective and even then it took a while - on the other hand air support is so easy to get in this game.
As for the FMG's, I used to use them akimbo, they're in the game and it's legit, it's down to the dev's to decide if they need nurfing, personnally they are only really effective close range and as all the maps are pretty much CQC, they are effective on pretty much all the maps.
They would not be so overpowered on most of the maps from previous COD's and that includes MW2.
The FMG's aren't that impressive to me, I just started using them to see what the fuss was about and I really think the Striker is more effective than the akimbo FMG's. Yes the kill great at a close range, a range thats only about as good as the Striker with Range but while your reloading the FMG's the Striker is only about 1/2 way through its mag drum. Striker also takes down low flying air support quite well, along with juggies!
I agree, I do the same by now. However, unlike many FMG users, I use them as a "real" secondary.. i.e. if I run out of bullets on my primary. I only spam them if I encounter a group of enemies all at once around a corner.
To let people know- he was using Blind Eye Pro. Which I believe is Extra Bullet Damage on air support.
This is a nice investment for my Riot Shield/FMG9 trolling class, thanks.
Using FMG9 to shoot down air support is stupid. You're just wasting bullets.
He was using Blind Eye Pro. Extra bullet damage against air support. He could have shot it down just as easy with a few bullets of his FAD.
I still think this just goes to show that spraying mindlessly with an akimbo really is the most viable way to do... well anything in MW3.
This sort of oversight really brings to question why anyone should even bother considering being precise or deliberate. You'll just do better by spraying like a moron, so why not just spray like a moron?
My honest message for the devs is that its one hell of a mistake that they pandered so far to the stupid and the clumsy. So far, in fact, that they only made it a liability to actually try and use marksmanship, tactics, or coordination. Why bother with any of these? Constantly spam your jump and prone buttons while spraying with an akimbo and odds are you'll always have the advantage.
those guns need to be disabled aka remove akimbo or decrease bullet damage
blind eye is pretty pointless tho. stingers are better because i need that challenge XP ![]()
Wow i knew the FMGs were Op but i didnt think it was that bad o.O
FMGs = FOR Mindless Gamers or F#^King MAD GAY!!!
RSASS works better. You can hit Reapers and any killstreaks that FMGs can't.
You will need Blind Eye Pro for this, obviously.
Also, FMG Akimbo have a free Rapid Fire. The RPM is higher than 2000.
