I think the only advantage m14 has a 1.5 head shot multiplier vs 1.4 for the FAL. I can't think of any situation where that might come into play though - maybe bullet penetration head shots?
The M14 has a head multiplier of 1.5 as well as a neck multiplier of 1.5 - on medium to long range that makes it easier to 2-shot someone. On the other hand...yeah, the accuracy can't compare to the FAL.

I didn't actually notice until I popped on drawfps, so it's not a big deal in the end, but I don't get why.
cg_drawfps is the command to shwo you your framerate you need to change com_maxfps
Yeah, my mistake. That was actually a typo, I had two thoughts running in my mind dealing with the two commands and mixed them up.
I actually have com_maxfps set to 90 and I'm still only getting 60 fps. It's even set to that in the CFG file.
When I played last time I got this strange box dropped on the map: As you can see on the map it is the icon of a care packet but black and you can't pick it up. Anyone know what it is?

Any comments or feedback would be appreciated.

nice... but try to do a video where half of the opponents are not afk pls.
Yeah you're probably right to be honest, that game on cracked had a fair few people who were pretty bad. I get the feeling that i did a bit of spawn killing.
Well first, if you do this kind of "brag" video of your sniping skills it just shouldn't include spawn kills like this (if you do like a Quad spawn kill or something that would be different though).
On the other hand your video preveted me from buying the game so far... seeing this spawnpoints is just bad. Not that only alone, but I just didn't heared anything that could convice me that this game is worth it. (Comparing it with CoD4 and CSS)
anyway, I ll keep reading this thread though, maybe they patch and balanace and keep it lag / hack free, I ll reconsider.

Yeah, you're right I over looked the neck multiplier. I also was a bit short sighted on the advantage of a 1.5 multiplier in general in terms of 2 shot kills at range.
I still feel what (in my opinion at least) is a pretty good out shining in accuracy/recoil by the FAL more then makes up for it (especially without the need to eat up an attachment with a grip). Though with the superior multiplier the m14 isn't quite as bad as I was making it out to be.
ETA for Black Ops server(s) is 11/27 GMT. Server is ranked, 18 slots, and located in Amsterdam, NL for all you EU players out there. I felt this was fair since the other FPS servers I host are in the US. If US players would like a US server, please harass me on IRC or via PMs, and if there is enough demand I can throw a US server up as well.
I sometimes stream my theater. Hit reg is to important and cpu to taxed already to stream while actaully playing . I plan on commenting some clan scrims and minor matches. I'm a pretty solid player, much better at FPS games than RTS been playing them since Doom and Wolf3d. No ak 74u use just ARs even though I was all about the UMP, Thompson, and MP40 in past CODs. Favorite weapon is the m14 it is so underrated and overpowered. Anyways if you want to watch someone stop pub games and troll noobs who think I'm hacking watch my channel.
My first Call of Duty Blackops montage! Let me know what you think guys.
As a game im loving Blackops overall. With all the tools in the game, Im finally going to start getting into editing montages like I have always wanted too.
I don't know what you guys think about the AUG AR, but I WTFpwnd with it in MW2, and honestly, it seems like the only rifle that works for me in this game. My K:D each round has gone up a TON. Also, I use a silencer. It just feels controllable, strong and the bullets just go right where you want them to.

No, but I should be!
I'm getting kind of tired of all this AK-74u stuff. And I swear with suppression that thing can't kill, but with Rapid Fire it demolishes sad 14 year olds all day.
I'm not even kidding, I've been playing Search and Destroy like, all day and all I see is AK-47, L9 sniper (on Array mostly), AK-74u, and Famas on occasion.
I guess it could be worse though. Snipers galore in CoD2 back in the day, you know, when no-scoping wasn't really much to do and sniping basically outpowered everything that wasn't right next to you.
Strange, most people I see use the AUG or the FAMAS - AK74 not so much.
Does anybody use semi-automatic rifles? When I'm using the FAL I'm almost guaranteed to be the only one on the server, and I don't think I ever saw the M14.
I almost always use semi-auto rifles. They're my personal favorite.
Edit: I just beat the story on Veteran. And you can do on the last mission what that one guy did on the first mission: barely firing your gun and letting the AI kill everyone. Pretty sad. Lol

I dont really like the M14, FAL is a whole other story tho, i can get some decent stats with that weapon. Usually tho i use the AK74U, to me its the best handling gun in the game if you consider the mobility carrying a SMG gives you (i mainly play CTF).
Edit: Using Lightweight, Warlord (for grip and rapid fire) and Marathon (all pro). Edit2: Also i find the tomahawk to be rediculously good, like a third of my kills lately are from tomahawks >_>.

Oh, it for sure is the best. But on CoD 4 I always used the G3, and on MW2 I always used the FAL. I just have this natural preference for semi-auto rifles.

Yeah i know that, they just feel really accurate, at least the FAL is that way for me. What i hate with a passion are burst rifles like the god damn M16. I cant stand when the gun shoots 3 times when what i really want is 1 or 2 shots.
