Cause I shot a guy in the body with the bolt action one that does the most damage, without a silencer and then he just ran over me.
COD frustrates me how COD always does, namely, how sniper rifles are gimped vs AR's at range. LMGs being pretty much just as easy to run around with as a 'normal' gun.
Ya, I think LMGs have less recoil than ARs do.

if you are talking about the L96A1. it does 105damage to everything but limbs. you must of shot his arm or legs(which would hit him for 70).

So what classes are people running? Personally, my main class is Ghost Pro, Warlord and Marathon. The weapon is AK47u with red dot and silencer. Tactical Insertion as equipment. Good stuff in Demolition.
Other than that, I love the FAMAS and I hated it in MW2. When I started using it yesterday, I felt I found the ACR of Black Ops, so little recoil, shoots soo fast, good damage.
Half way through my first prestige so I don't have everything I want just yet. Currently using a MP5, switching to Spectre as soon as it becomes available again. Running Hardline Pro, Hardened Pro and Marathon Pro. or I was anyways.. in the process of unlocking them again right now. Frag and stun grenades with a claymore.
Tip ; Hardline pro, probably the most awesome perk in the game. Allows you to switch whatever is in your packages (Sam Turret/Sentry Gun/Care Packages whatever you want) by double tapping it. You can't choose what you get, But it's like playing the slots, and I find it often pays off as I ALWAYS get ammo in care packages. Also, Sam turrets are amazing for XP.

The AKs are easily the best guns in the game (with Commando going close), like in CoD4. Is there any information about the mod tools release date? I bought BO solely for matches sake as I thought the CoD4 scene would finally move into a new game but without modtools it's kinda hard. The custom matchset of no perks or killstreaks and restricted weapons is good but some things you cant change with it, like cooked nades.
Oh well, ir's a lot of fun as a pubgame though!

The RC-XD is the best thing ever in an FPS.

There was a Q@A recently ( today even )
It contains information about the next patch, as well as about Mod tools.
Read on in the spoiler
Yes, this is legit.
+ Show Spoiler +Q: Will we get the /connect and /reconnect commands in the next patch?
Treyarch
A: /connect is coming back. maybe not next patch but I promise it is coming back.
Q: Will the last killcam (End of the round) lag too fixed if the patch comes out?
Treyarch
A: TBH I’m not sure yet what is causing killcam choppiness, but we see it too. Will fix.
Q: Not asking specifics, but now that the game is launched, are mod tools ideas being kicked around yet? and congrats on the game!
Treyarch
A:Thanks, man. mod tool dev started already. no bandwidth to discuss until after some patches though.
Q: Will it be possible at some point to have servers with lower max player counts? 18 players in FFA games for example = too chaotic!
Treyarch
A: Will add 12 player playlists.
Q: Will it be possible to put reserved slots for my friends and me on my own ranked server again?
Treyarch
A:We removed the feature because it was abused. will fix.
Q: Are you aware of the bug where theater mode replays are only being saved on some servers? Mostly treyarch servers seem to work
Treyarch
A: Film recording should be fixed – this was a backend config problem for rented ranked servers only
Q: Have you thought about allowing editing of classes in a server?
Treyarch
A: We tried this but had a lot of problems due to the way the data is secured. had to bench the feature for future review.
Q: Hi, if i go into the server browser, sometimes i click on a server nothing happens, its not full etc but its just that nothing happen
Treyarch
A: This is a bug – highlight another server then double-click the one you want to join.
Q: Are there any engine optimisations coming I am above the min spec but still get awful fps in lowest settings, not lag related.
Treyarch
A: We have some nice optimizations for better FPS going into QA tomorrow.
Q: Awesome, will the next patch be in the next couple days you think?
Treyarch
A:Trying to release patch before the weekend. will go into QA tomorrow.

Better FPS is always preferable.

I personally find it extremely annoying. It's like a Predator in MW2, only easier to get and much stronger. Until now, every RC-XD has been a guaranteed kill for me. They are way too hard to shoot down. Why even have Valkyre missiles when it's way easier to get a kill with the car and it's way harder to get valkyres?

CoD is such garbage, it is the cancer killing gaming.
Every year, the same shitty Michael Bay movie for a single player campaign, the same no-skill multiplayer that is only popular because of how easy it is.

i don't agree with that part, you can quickly take down an RC-XD if you see it coming while you couldn't do anything vs the predator in mw2.. and it was much easier to get multi-kills with the predator than it is with the RC-XD, i gotta agree that it can become annoying but nowhere as near as a predator.

Tell me more please Mr. Gorguts.

Can I ask why you are even posting here then? Temp Ban incoming for you?

I just got this game on Steam. I'd love to pwn some TL.net patrons. Add me on steam if you want. Zorkmid.
What are some good servers?
Does PC Gamer have a dedicated server?

When you heard a predator in MW2, you generally had ample time to get to cover. Cover won't save you against the RC-XD though, it just drives into the darkest of basements just to humiliate you. I disagree that it's harder to get multi-kills with it as well. Sure, any n00b could pull of a doublekill with a predator if it was used at the right time, but with just a bit of skill you can easily do the same with the RC-XD, and more consistently. As we all learn the maps better, people will know where people clump up. Get the car, put it down, drive to said spot, wait. With a predator, you can't wait, you start it and hope for the best. Any trick that worked with the predator (aim at bomb) works decently with the RC-XD as well.
The only thing I do like about the RC-XD is that it's at least weak to claymores, which I use a lot.

Nice sheet. Kind of funny that shotguns don't get a multiplier when they hit your head, like a shotgun blast to the face isn't going to do more damage.

Until people get out of this Spy Plane phase, I'm going to keep running Ghost on all my classes. What's a good second/third perk though? Right now I'm running Sleight of Hand Pro and Hacker...I tried switching out of Sleight of Hand but I failed miserably. I guess I'm too use to that insanely fast reload timer on my ARs.

If I don't use Hacker, I use Ninja.

A very good third perk is Marathon. The pro version gives you unlimited sprint.
Later on, Ninja ( reduces the sound of your footsteps ) might become a solid third perk, since there are some rumors going around, that the footstep sound is gonna get a bit louder.
For the second perk, I'd stick with Sleight of hand. It's a solid choice, now that weapons have more ammo than they had in MW2, and you generally need more bullets to kill someone. Hardened is also a good choice, but i rarely run into situations where that perk might come in handy.
Steady aim is also a superb perk, when running with an SMG with grip. Makes a solid choice for a rush class.
