Any gun with a grenade launcher. Possibly used with the perk danger close, which increases explosive damage.
It is pretty much an instant kill, and it is called a 'noob tube' because it doesn't take any skill to use it. You just point and shoot, and you kill people. It doesn't even have to really be close with 'danger close', and you just die. It is retarded, and probably the worst thing to exist in this game. People can run around with scavenger on, and essentially never run out of grenades with it. |

I hate to tell you, but tha'ts what I'm doing now.
![]() At least I'm not doing it with my buds though. Just doing it in free-for-all and stuff. Need like 20 more kills to get the Danger Close Pro. And then I'll probly keep doing it to get the Danger Close challenge. But then I'm done with it. |

Challenges/unlocks are one thing, but it is still annoying to get killed by it.
Pretty much just wish it wasn't in the game at this point, because I don't see how they could make it less powerful really. |

i dont know if you're being serious here. am honestly surprised people haven't heard the term 'noob tube', because I was introduced to the term my first day of playing, and I have hated it ever since

I wish the blast sheild would be a little more effective against them. I understand I can't be completly indestrcutible but I should be able to survive ONE tube. Just one.

Exploitation arms race, huh? Doesn't sound like a solution at all. Just a lot of annoyance from both sides.
I have been running around with an RPG, but mostly because getting head shots with it is hilarious. |

Did you know pressing the R trigger on a predator missile makes it travel faster? It was news to me like a week ago.

Great strategy is claymore, smoke and scavenger plus a heartbeat sensor. place the claymores on corners near you and when someone gets close throw down the smoke, chances are they hit a claymore then you get the claymore and smoke back from their dead body.

I am a sniper,I use thermal, I carry a shotgun that can unload a clip in 3.5 seconds. I use scavenger and claymores/smoke grenades and yet people hate players who use noob tubes. I admittingly piss alot of people off in team deathmatch because I will find a good area, place claymores and use smoke to hide them or blast away with a shotgun if you get close. I get called a camper for doing this, I am not a camper, I am a sniper and I dont want you to kill me.

That's one of the gayest posts we'll see this year I predict.
The ACR is a beast, I can't believe I took so long to give it a go. I'm killed about 300 people with it in one day. |

ACR was forged by the God of War, himself. Created by the ore of fossilized lost souls and constructed using damned blind men. Finished with the tears of raped women and blessed by an agent of never ending despair. The bullets are from the NRA.

I use Scavenger for my sneaky classes because it takes so much more ammo to kill people with silenced weapons, but Sleight of Hand is the only option for my normal class.

Sleight of Hand is kinda useless, you can manage without it. Unless you use Light Machineguns that take four years to reload.

I dont even use it with my heavy duty class which is an RPD and stinger, Once I gun someone down I will switch the stinger for their weapon.

I've never had a firefight where nobody died before reload on either side. It's usually somebody gets caught slipping and gets killed, or two people meet mutually and one dies a second later. That's my experience, anyway.

It's not the reload, it's the ADS. Firing through the sight kills much quicker than hipfire. If you have Sleight of Hand Pro the ADS is basically instantaneous, so it's as quick as firing off the hip.

What's your third tier Perk? Maybe you could supplement hip fire with more accuracy, but you seem to be doing well as it is.

Ninja Pro usually, again not for the primary heartbeat sensor evasion but the lack of footsteps. The reload for SoH helps too for in between fire fights so you don't get caught by some fucking cunt drawn in by your fire. I find it helps alot when there's 2/3 guys on screen and you can nail them all by ADSing 3 times and re-loading quickly if necessary.

I have used sleight with my smg class, really useful to be honest. Though if i use a silencer i usually go with marathon instead. ECG, you were saying earlier about silenced weapons, try marathon, hardline and commando, you can run quickly to the enemies side and flank them, they wont expect it so fast so you can usually get 2-3 kills before they become aware. fire off a secondary unsilenced weapon and wait roughly 20 seconds slightly hidden, kill whoever comes along and steal their weapon (you should be low now) then get the hell out of there as they will all swarm the area. circle around and repeat. I do this on underpass, afghan and derail with ease, usually get 20+ with less then 10 deaths using the ump.

Just a tip assman but once you get your care package do not use it right away for a couple reasons, those being
1) Trying to attain your next killstreak before you die 2) good chance an enemy will kill ya and steal your crate 3) rewards from crates do not add your killstreak so it wont help you get your next reward and lastly 4) when you die you usually spawn farther away from enemies which will allow ya to actually get your crate reward. and one last thing if its just ammo leave it and wait to ambush the enemy that comes to steal it (they cant see what it is from far away like teammates can) Last edited by El Fangel; 01-17-2010 at 11:31 AM. |
