Extreme Conditioning Pro...

...could use a buff in my opinion. Bring back the infinite sprint, but to the Pro version only so it has to be earned and it's not like MW2 where every Tom Dick and Harry used basic Marathon to knife monkey.
Given that Commando is gone, barring the odd lag-induced lunge, I can't see any downsides to this buff. It's useless to those who camp.
Agree or not?

im pleased they got rid of the unlimited sprint all anyone did with it was run into the other teams spawn point a to rack up kills and ignore the objectives
Unlimited sprint made it easier to play the objective...Spawn killers are always going to spawn kill.
Fair enough, that would be annoying if I wasn't a run and gunner. However, even if I was a less motive player, I would prefer people spawn rushing for kills at the expense of the objective to what currently happens, which is camping for kills and killstreaks at the expense of the objective.
Rushers are easier to kill than campers as you can see or hear them coming, and are more likely to go for the objective as campers tend not to go anywhere.
Yea they get rid of a rushers tool while they give campers better tools. Hate to say this but this Call of Duty is meant to be for campers. At least Black Ops was balance and everyone can play it there way.

you can play this one however you want as well... (i'm in agreeance with you on this though... I liked Black Ops far better)
In Black Ops all play styles are equal. Balance. But in this they gave campers more tools to win. Perk setups are the worst I ever saw them. Black Ops had the best but two perks were a little more powerful than others.

I think it could use a buff. It's a little bit underpowered for a blue perk in my opinion. Especially the pro version.
Agreed, it looks woeful next to Sleight of Hand Pro and Scavenger Pro.
I think it should be 3x sprint.
I like 3x sprint, but infini-sprint seems a bit overkill imo.
I play completely differently in MW3 compared to Black Ops and that's because I can't run around like an idiot anymore. I used to only carry a pistol because it made it easier to run around but now that I can't, I switch between other secondaries.
I agree. I used Marathon Pro almost exclusivly in Black Ops. I loved having the ability to constantly be on the move and knowing that my guy wasn't going to stop every two seconds. I haven't even used it once on MW3. I just finally got it Pro from running around with specialist.
If not unlimited, at least make it replenish faster. As of now once you run the extra 2 steps basically, you have to sit in a corner and waith 20 seconds for it to recharge. Unless you have the pro version, it's a waste of a perk really.
you don't have to sit in a corner.. try walking and you can get the same effect as sitting on your arse and you'll find that that you can get around the map a lot faster too!
I think in MW3, the maps are so small you don't really need much more than the pro version unless you're playing CTF.
earned you say.... nothing, as far as perks are concerned, are earned in this game. Black ops at least had you do stuff to earn them other than get kills with your gun. sprint around the edge of the map for 40 miles... not hard to do and quite honestly isn't something that is "earned".
Unlimited sprint should've come back. It helped me play the objective better in MW2 and Blops.
I don't care either way, but if they are going to be changing stuff around they should remove deathstreaks first.
I dont play extreme conditioning purely because the run increase isnt worth it, I enjoyed it back in cod4 but havent really played it since
You should be able to run as far as you can with EC and a USAS but with all guns. I hate having to use the USAS to get the extra sprint.
The weapon-specific run boost is laughable. There is no basis for it.
The USAS is a perfectly capable shotgun, the MP9 is basically a sub machine gun, and the skorpion is at least better than the G18 and almost all of the handguns.
I have absolutely no clue what they were doing with weapon-based sprint increases.
I have to agree. The USAS is probably the best shotty (Striker) and I love using it and all but man I wish I could sprint like that with the PM or the model. Or the KSG, UMP, PP90.....
Its not that I think these guns need the extra sprint but it would just be fun to rush with these guns like I can with a USAS.
I used to use Marathon because I could rush to the headquarters faster. I don't see any point in using Extreme Conditioning for a 5 second boost.
Infinite sprint back to camping spot?
man all ive done on BO was running around with steady aim pro, marathon pro and hardline pro. Loved to play like this pure run and gun no camping that was my playstyle till MW3 came out. Now im a slow paced gamer who prefers recon or slight of hand cause the additional sprint time aint worth it. Hope they bring this feature back to BO2. Im annoyed that camping is now the only playstyle that i see on this game. Would also do games like killconfirmed more interesting. Also i think the time before you where aible to shot again after a sprint with steady aim pro was shorter on BO.
I played the same in BO, except with leightweight, plus skorpion extended mags. Good times. I still run and gun in MW3 though, just end up with more deaths from behind.
