Attachments that suck

Which attachments do you hate using?

 

1)  Heartbeat monitor.  Useless PoS because the display doesn't last long enough.  With an HM you shouldn't stare at it, you should do your thing until you hear a beep.  Then you look at it.  But if you do that the damned red dot has faded before your eyeballs swivel down to it.  Add to that it greatly covers a lot of your view, and it's useless.

 

2)  Shotgun.  I don't think I've gotten a single kill with this attachment.  I know I've never satisfied the challenge on any gun.

 

3)  Grenades.  Seem to have a small blast radius.  Have completed it a couple times, but I find it more useless than useful.

    Have you ever used the shotgun attachment, it's beast! Almost OP if you ask me

     

    I'd say the worst is the Hybrid Sight, it's ugly and the ACOG scope has a massive dot that doesnt' do much for accuracy

      Couldn't agree more G.  the undermount shotty is VERY beastly.  People just don't know how to use it.   

       

      The Hybrid Sight is by far the worst for AR's.  For SMG's, I'd say the ACOG, it's very effective but doesn't work well with my play style.  Shotguns, either of the sights or the silencer.  I don't use the snipers.

    gotta go with hybrid as the worst. for my own guns, i only use red dot and silencer, but when ammo runs dry, i cringe whenever the gun i just picked up has the hybrid sight. i haven't tried the scoped part of it but every time i try to use the holographic-ish sight it bounces all over the place whenever i strafe and shoot. better off hip-firing, even at long range

    Re: Attachments that suck

    Shotgun and Grenade Launcher are useless. Everyone was so angry about tubes in MW2 that they nerfed the under barrel into uselessness. I can drop a grenade right in someone's bread basket and almost always just get a hitmarker, even on direct contact.

     

    Holographic Site is also pretty crappy in this game as it takes up a huge amount of screen space when ADSing, same with the ACOG. Other than a couple of sniper rifles you can use it to run and gun with, I find the ACOG to be a terrible site in this game.

     

    Heartbeat sensor is also pretty useless, seems they nerfed it as well after all the moaning about it in MW2. Basically any attachment that takes up screen space and has limited function is crap to use in MW3. Most of my classes I just wind up with silencer/red dot/extended mags.

      Give the shotty a good try

       

      The grenade launcer is insane in HC modes

       

      The ACOG is just fine with most ARs and counters the drop in range the Silencer causes

      Re: Attachments that suck

      Nah the masterkey is awesome it's pretty much on par with the rest of the shotties

       

      The noobtube is still pretty good but the M320 is a good comprimise

          Nahh you just need to spend more time with them the most useless attachment varies by AR for the FAD silencer is the most ~meh~  whilst for the ACR it's extended mags just no real point to the extra ammo given the kill rate of the thing whilst with the MK14 its the red dot sight.

          Like most things it's all in how a user use's the guns and where the players own strengths and weaknesses lie and overall just weird personal preference that may not be the "best" but just feels right.
