CoolFunkMan Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 I'm a shit person, went to a LAN this weekend saw all my mates playing it and I broke under the pressure, bought it this morning £35 for PC. Bit steep, but meh. Lol, you're not a shit person, it's deffinitely worth buying! Trust me, you won't be dissapointed.
Bren Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Anyone else addicted to this? lol I love the riot shield, its so good on domination, i play with a pretty good team, we'v only lost like 15 out out 110 games. The shield is just so good for the front man, so easy to wipe out a team distracting them. Anyone else love the drop that has 4 crates, its good to drop on a point that your trying to take, itll either squish the enemy or theyll get distracted and try to capture them all, easy cannon fodder lol. WOOO BEST GAME EVARASE?!
Solo Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Hells yeah a mate and I just owned half of spec ops on vet last night, the variety of the missions is fantastic. Am I right in reading that there will be spec ops dlc as well as new maps?
MATtheHAT Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 I should work on getting it pro though. That gets you to scope faster, as well as reload. That sounds pretty pimp. This^ My current loadout for most maps is: MP5K with the incresed rate of fire attachment. Stopping power pro Slight of hand pro Ninja pro I personally think the Ninja perk is essential in Search and Destroy (the only game mode I play) Those heartbeat sensors can be a nightmare, but people tend to rely on them a bit too much, hence, the Ninja perk rocks.
Sec Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Yeah SC the gun is a beaut! I went on an absolutely apocalyptic spree earlier with it- I was just casually headshotting guys with it easy as anything. It's probably the most ammo efficient gun in the game by my reckoning too which is really useful. I'm also deep in to a love affair with the Spas-12. few tips if anyone's struggling: the best basic set up is marathon, Stopping Power and Steady Aim use an assault rifle like the FAMAS at range. Get some scopes unlocked and practice long range shooting Take the Spas-12. Always. Up close and with Steady Aim you can just fire off the hip on reflex and kill anyone up to a room away easily. Marathon is crazy useful. The best tactic in the game is too move at speed and flank the enemy. Marathon does that for you. also: play stealthy. The UAV radar operates on sound so as long as you don't fire your guns before you have a kill shot, your enemy won't be able to track you. Once you make the kill, move. Often, lazy players come to look for you where they saw you stand on the kill cam so the best place to move to is somewhere you can cover that same spot. oh and when possible, kill silently. Knives and and silenced weapons are your friend. If the enemy team sees an orange dot line up with a skull marker, they'll come looking for a fight. Kill quietly and they have no idea where to look. oh and learn to love stun grenades. They're savagely effective, especially combined with the shotgun. Well i've found that running especially in free for all is not the best tactic. lots of people have found spots to camp so it can be easy for them to kill you. going slowly and using crouch is a tactic i'm starting to use. trying to get a thermal for the .50 cal, but its bloody impossible for me to kill anyone with the acog! Anyone else addicted to this? lol I love the riot shield, its so good on domination, i play with a pretty good team, we'v only lost like 15 out out 110 games. The shield is just so good for the front man, so easy to wipe out a team distracting them. Anyone else love the drop that has 4 crates, its good to drop on a point that your trying to take, itll either squish the enemy or theyll get distracted and try to capture them all, easy cannon fodder lol. WOOO BEST GAME EVARASE?! I'm so frickin addicted! Its fun to find a guy in the corner waiting for there crate then killing and stealing it from them! unfortunately i havent been able to get the 4 crate drop but sounds good! only problem is you have to set the marker in the open
James Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 I love getting the 4 crate drop, but sometimes I made some slight errors, like placing the marker at the egde of the map.....so yes, they all went outside the maps boundries except one!!! Another was the lvel, with the big freeway that half built above you, standing in what looked an open place, waiting for crates to land, waiting, waiting. nothing, looked up, all 4 of them were stuck on the bloody freeway above me!! LOL
flameboy Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Can you get 2 attachments for a single gun in multiplayer? Yes, but you need to have unlocked the 'Bling' perk from Perk slot 1 and have it selected. I wondered the answer to that as well because need my scope for aiming but then nice to have either a grenade launcher or such like... I'm slowly getting into this but like I've said limited amount of time outside of weekends means progression will be slow. I'm slowly learning the levels...
gaggle64 Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 (edited) lulz. I had no idea about them at all. Personally I think Sleight Of Hand is a little...superficial. Loading very rarely lands me in any kind of hot water. You absolutely have to use it for an LMG class, but for an AR I think you can use the slot better. I should work on getting it pro though. That gets you to scope faster, as well as reload. That sounds pretty pimp. Depends how you play and what you use it with. I use a SCAR in one of my slots, which has great range but a tiny magazine for going in close with automatic fire - SOH helps negate that one drawback massively to make it, in my opinion, one of the best all round weapons in the game.

Dan_Dare Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Fair point. I use the FAL anyway so I'm a campy little bitch with a stupidly efficient clip
Cube Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 The set-up I currently use is: - M4A (or whatever it's called - it's a LMG) - Frag Grenades - Stinger (Can't remember the proper name - the anti-air one) - Bling+ with Grip and ACOG Scope - Cold Blooded+ - Steady Aim+ - Martyrdom (Killstreaks: Care Package, Sentry and Harrier Jet). I got annoyed with the jets and helicopters, and how nobody seems to attack them. So I nominated myself as the anti-air guy whenever something appears (the majority don't get a chance to kill anyone). Luckily I have two rockets which takes care of the armoured helicopters. It really is ridiculously easy to destroy pretty much everything except the AC-130.
Babooo Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Just unlocked that TAR gun or whatever its called. I don't like it. Still prefer the SCAR. Over and out.
Caris Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Just had a 12 hour multiplayer session, yes you read that right. This game is outstanding online.
Sec Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 I really don't get the hardline pro perk. really if you're anyway good to get it you shouldn't be getting killed enough to warrant having one less death to get the death streak perk, or is that just me
James Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 I dont know about that, I count myself as pretty good, but I can have a game where I just play awful, and the hardline pro perk would help alot(altho I think they are pretty useless anyways)
Babooo Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Just had a 12 hour multiplayer session, yes you read that right. This game is outstanding online. That is ridiculous.
flameboy Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 12 Hours thats mental...thats more than I've played altogether!
Chuck Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Shotgun sidearm is the way forward, especially the SPAS. In the snow-submarine level I managed to get 9 or so kills within a minute by finding my way through the indoor parts. yesterday I changed my setup to the other shotgun I had unlocked and the famas, to get some challenges done, and managed 17 kills without dying, but that was over a much longer period and, no, I wasn't camping. It might not sound like much now they have a 25 kill steak nuke but it was really pleasing to get those streaks. I find that alot of people are finding a few spots on each map and just sitting there getting kill after kill, which is really annoying when it happens over and over again to you, and not many people are using the shotgun which is really successful for me. Great as a sidearm, takes ages to switch though.

Great as a sidearm, takes ages to switch though. See I can never use the shotgun I love the idea of it, but my aiming is woeful so find it hard to use effectively. I'll post my set up that is giving me reasonable results at the moment. I've only really played team deathmatch so far...what other game modes are fun? Not unlocked them all yet though... Any of the PS3 crew online tonight after about 7ish...
spirited away Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Just had my best game yet on quarry, 40-1. Was one kill away from the nuke when I died, which was immensely frustrating. I must have got a 24 killstreak 5 or 6 times, yet the game seems to end right before my last kill. Will have another crack later. As for my set-up: M16A4 (Holographic, FMJ), Thumper, Claymore, Stun. Perks: Stopping Power, Bling, Steady Aim (absolutely essential). Perfect class that suits my style.
Babooo Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Really enjoying multiplayer....I played this instead of going to my lectures today! ahhh! But on the positive side, I have found a really good set up....consists of the mp5 with marathon, commando and one other perk i can't remember. It basically allows me to run constantly and people won't be able to know whats hit them! Its awesome!

It's all about Steady Aim. I use my shotgun all the time but I never aim down the sight. Just run and fire from the hip at close range (keep the sights around chest/head height for lulz) and it almost always beats any other gun up close. Worth working on too: the SPAS-12 with foregrip is just a death machine. I took out maybe seven guys in a row last night with it without reloading. I was on fire.

Sounds cool.

I've got Steady Aim think I'm even a pro at it lol.
