Only a few times after borrowing it off a mate, but after playing blops I can now see the difference in graphics and sound. Its epic

cant disagree there, pisses all over Blops sound and graphics wise,sound especially, even on quiet parts of games you can hear shooting off the map, rusted metal creaking on burnt out cars, all that stuff. and your footsteps actually sound like your footsteps as opposed to mystery steps that arent in sync with what you're doing. its definitely a lot busier than Blops too, tons of stuff going on around the maps on big games, play a ground war domination if you want to see utter chaos had a pretty epic game of it there earlier, went 42-8 sniping on Scrapyard, I dont really snipe anymore on it, prefer to run n gun with the spas, felt good though


its not without its flaw though, prepare for controller flinging rage when some pubeless wanker sends a noobtube grenade across the map and kills you, itll happen a lot.

Utter rape last night on GW. Much prefer GW Dom than regular Dom.

Fingers crossed this trend will carry on

True the noobtubes are a b*tch but the fluid gameplay, sound and graphics makes up for it.
Hopefully MW3 is basically a mix of MW2s' gameplay and sound/graphics and Blops' support and theatre mode.

Worst team I've ever been on but still managed to win.

In fact, probably the worst team I've been on, fullstop.

I have that beat, guy on ground war the other night went 7-48! now we were spawntrapped like bastards but still, why would you bother and not just quit, unless he was boosting someone on the other team

Enjoyed the demo games last night, felt even more sh** than normal after the team got over 700 kills and I contributed only 50, but as I said then I had 22 assists you robbing scummy teammates! Not sure who has it in their fileshare but it was utter carnage on WMD, think some of them died 130 times. No wonder it's called demolition.

The only game we lost was when we came up against a party when everyone (apart from me) was running 8,9,11 killstreaks and they tac inserted and used head glitches constantly. Once we set up sensible classes & killstreaks they soon got schooled. Favourite part against them was when I used my tac insert as a lure to kill them in their spawn and get a blackbird from them trying to destroy it.

@ Ross, Just got UPC switched on there this morning and the ping has gone from around 80 down to around 15.

Download speed has gone from 4Mbps (of 8 available) to 22Mbps (of 30 available)

...All that for €10 less a month.

go to your router page.. 192.168.1.1 down to firewall - options, untick everything there apart from firwall on the bottom... It's an evil, evil modem, but i love the broadband speed Actually, you'd prob want to change half the settings on the thing

first night in a long time to be playing last night, was on with everlast, Floyd I think yimrag was in there too but bloody hell at one point i was able to lie down in a corner and go take a leak and not get killed the cargage was that bad. I think one round of domination went 202 to 37 and another about 200 to 64.

loved the clan take chage half way through. Clan LUBE all the way

I thought it was only fair that by us all changing our clan tag to that - we give the opposition due notice of what would ease their pain in the upcoming match

Faolchu

i was surprised they didnt quit to be honest when i saw it. I was also very surprised i managed to rack up double digit kills in the last game considering the carnage.

BTW sorry for just vanishing last night lads had problems with the electricity and yes i did pay the bill before anyone asks.

don't write in anything and press ok... there is no password or username starting off, again, it's an evil modem! if ya get stuck with anything, just say, I've prob went through it already there's also a thread for it

Faolchu

right folks after playing last night with the lads i feel less of a man than usual.

for the life of me i cant string a decent kill streak together, struggle to get more than 15 kills per game. so i'm either just crap or i'm not playing teh way i should.

• normally i go with an assault rifle with either extended mags, dual mags or a scope or red dot.
• Secondary weapon is always the strella for taking out air support
• i have claymore but thats coz i'm unlocking a perk
• for perks I tend to change them as i'm trying to unlock the pro versions
• but for now I'm running a combo of hacker, flac jacket, hardend, hardline.

being taken out by a sniper i can live with, thats their objective but I'm always loosing out in the 1 - 1 battles.

I mix it up for game modes. so for domination and demolitions I'll put a silencer on and take the motion sensor fo the claymore.

help me obordsies you're my only hopw

Ninja Pro is my favourite perk. The amount of times i've ran near someone and i hear their footsteps only for me to turn around and drop them is insane.

I can't stand the sound of my own footsteps so ninja is a must.

If you're having trouble getting kills and stuff switch to ghost for a while. While it may be a bitchy perk it (IMO) isn't that bad if those who use it are running around like everyone else.

For the second perk i like hardened pro. Stops you flinching when you are shooting directly at someone which helps you beat them.

Try:

AK47 w/ dual mag

Ghost Pro
Hardened Pro
Ninja Pro

I hope you have all of these pro versions. If not try get them they really help.

dont have any of tehm yet, working on hardend, hardline and hacker pro at the minute coz i prestiged a week or two ago then stopped playing

I don't use hacker or hardline. Find them both pretty useless if i'm honest.

Mr. Manager

I think that Marathon Pro is an absolute must. Especially when in a big party with good players. As soon as the SR71 comes up it's a frantic run to get to the red triangle first.

My second perk is SOH. Being able to ADS 50% quicker than your opponent is in an instant advantage and you just can't beat the reload times with it attached. Using an AK-74u with dual mags is lethal on small maps.

Lastly, I have scavenger. Again, if running in a big party you're avg. life expectancy is huge so running out of ammo is an issue. The amount of times I heard people say "does anyone have a gun" "I need a gun" etc etc. Plus replenishing your semtex or frag is awesome for random spamming of the spawns.

With all that being said, here is my setup:

AK-47 (Extended mags)
Strella

Flashbang
Semtex
Claymore

Scavenger Pro
Sleight of Hand Pro
Marathon Pro

Faolchu

yeah hear a lot of people last night screaming for guns, had to do it myself ended up picking up a pistol coz i ran out of ammo.

I suppose running about like a headless chuck doesnt help me much either

hacker i find good for preventing me from running into claymores and for showing up the cameras or motion sensors so i know to be on the look out for someone.

I've SoH pro on nearly all my classes, except my sniper, (scout pro) M60 & M16, (hardened pro) classes. It's brilliant when combined with dual mags which gives you plenty of additional ammo and leaves you able to pick something other than scavenger. Ghost, hardline and flak jacket are all very useful perks combined with dual mags so you don't have to conserve ammo. They give you immediate advantages wheras scavenger's advantage is best later on in a life.

I'd only run steady aim with a smg with extended/dual mags. Or in a fast moving rusher class with lightweight/marathon so I can shoot faster after sprinting. Make sure you work on getting pro versions on most of your perks. SoH, Ghost, Flak Jacket & Marathon are probably the best pro versions. Also Tac Mask Pro is surprisingly good and worth getting. Some like scout pro, and hardened pro are less useful in most circumstances when compared to being able to walk through fire, ignore enemy grenades, stay off enemy radar and sprint behind an entire team.

Also try tuning your killstreaks to match you're style of play. 3,4,5 is an underated combo. The spyplanes harass the non-ghost users and counterspy blocks radar whilst naplam can deny objectives and pick up multiple kills long after it should be able. If people are constantly calling in choppers/blackbirds, try using rolling thunder. You might get only one or two but it scares the crap out of teams when it's called in. Also hardline makes getting loads of killstreaks a doddle.

Finally consider playing to your gun and loadout strengths, and engage enemies on a distance that puts you at an advantage.

Shotguns less than 5m corners and high traffic doorways
Smgs around 10-20m small rooms and high traffic areas
ARs around 20-80m Acog m16 and Variable Zoom g11 are the better long range ARs and famas and aug for up close due to their faster rates of fire.
Snipers with VZ anything over 80m Havanna, Array Discovery even Firing Range.
LMGs don't suffer from damage drop off at range so try fighting at longer distances 30-60m but remember to burst fire as the recoil can get bad. Best used when you know where the enemy is and you're flanks are protected. Best used with jammers & motion sensors.

Faolchu

nice one I'll play with the perks some more tonight and move away from hardline for now.

I'll try hanging back a little instead of just rushing ahead to get kills maybe stay croushed down instead of running

I recommend you using

Commando/Famas or Ak - Extended Mags or Red Dot if your struggling with the iron sights. I would imagine theres no point in using dual mags since you've said you're struggling to get over 15 kills a game. So you'll probably never use the extra ammo.. maybe a siliencer ?
Strela
Claymore or motionsensor - Depending on your playstyle, claymore for agressive (Plant it behind you when you enter a building) etc
Flash/Stun/Nade/Sem

Flak Jacket Pro
Slight of Hand Pro
Tac Mask Pro or if your an agressive fast player, marathon (Actually, if your planning on presteging its likely that you'll not get any of these pro perks so i'd say marathon is the best)


If your struggling to get kills its probably best to play defensively anyway, let the kills come to you.

This game is a ****ing joke connection wise.

I was following a guy who didn't even know. I shot him in the back with the auto CZ75 and every bullet hit him. He eventually turns around and shoots me with not an smg or assault rifle but a ****ing asp that kills me in 3 bullets.

Can someone explain to me how this makes any sense?
