Got my 3rd nuke, but the match ended just as my chopper gunner finished.

I like it when I prestige. Always get about 10 achievements in every game, until about level 50 where they slow down a bit. Always get to use different weapons, killstreak rewards etc.

Only 2 "pro" perks I have never gotten are One Man Army and Sit Rep. What do the pro versions of those do?

One Man Army Pro = Faster class switching
SitRep Pro = Louder enemy footsteps (which I have found is incredible with my 5.1 system). Last edited by Vietnamese Crippler; 04-06-2010 at 01:08 AM. |

I find that after using Sleight of Hand on my snipers, its hard to switch to scavenger when I get it, love quick scoping.

Trying to get used to this, last online COD I played was 2 on the PC. A bit of overload here and I'm lucky if I finish anywhere near the top. My older brother consistently finishes top which makes it even more annoying. Bit pissed that I can't have two usernames without paying, gf likes shooting games so she's playing on this as much as I am.
Any tips for a noob? I got a perk yesterday that stops you being recognised by the choppers etc which seems to help shitloads. |

Wow, I need that perk. I absolutely suck at shooters, so I am learning on the go. I have not ever gotten more than 6 kills in a round on XBox Live.

Move less, observe more. Camp. Follow other players. Even if you're not sure, just shoot. Play like you're paranoid.

I can probably only do the WA2000 after this one because these are the only two that can fire fast enough for me to be able to follow someone as they run behind cover.

Basically play a few matchs of TDM and you will see the routes and high traffic areas and the vantage points you see from killcams, after awhile, go back to hardcore. Hell, not bragging but I am very good at TDM and Ground War, but get my ass kicked in hardcore still unless I play for awhile and get used to it again. I hate not seeing killcams though, because people camp way too fucking much in hardcore, usually with heartbeat sensors, which makes it pretty much mandatory for ____/Cold Blooded/Ninja Anywho, I cant help you with hardcore, need help with that, get Requiem, that guy is insane at it. |

If you see something move, shoot. If you hit there will be white x where your crosshairs used to be, nervous about a room, frag/flash/stun if you see a white x, it damaged/hit an enemy, if you see two white x's, there is more then one.
What Kalyx said about being paranoid. For you guys, I would try this set up here Any gun you have with silencer Any shotgun you have with silencer Sleight of hand (helps reload and later aim faster) ColdBlooder and if not, Hardline Commando (increase knife distance and later no fall damage) Use UAV (shows enemies positions, if you want to hunt or avoid is up to you) Care package (you will get a can of red smoke, make sure there is nothing above you and toss it on the ground, then move away a little as there will be a crate dropping and it can kill you, crate will have ammo or a random killstreak (anything from UAV to AC130) Sentry Gun (works same as care package, except the sentry gun can be place somewhere you are not, great in a high traffic area as it cuts off movement that way and also great because alot of the time, the AI in the gun is smarter then and watches your back better then your teammates) great for noobs who get a 5 kill streak, as they can run and hide for a bit while racking up kills) Ill try to get you two into a private match with me to help you out more. Add me on XboXlive Mackem. Perhaps I can help you get used to the maps by showing you around. Last edited by El Fangel; 04-06-2010 at 06:26 AM. |

At the moment I'm playing with the latest assault rifle that I have unlocked (kicks ass, like it's accuracy and devastation) although I was previously playing with an automatic gun with decent success. Anyway I have this assualt rifle and I've unlocked the grenade launcher attachment (probably should have played the game cos God knows how I use that). I need the helicopter repellant because otherwise I'm fucked, don't use the knife at all. I'm following my brother at the moment and I'm picking it up, I'm just surrounded by veterans who seemingly know the game inside out and what works best. I'll get there just the jump from COD2 to MW2 is immense. I like the domination games, good times. Brother is trying to get me to get the latest map pack but told him to fuck off until I get used to the original stuff. Addictive stuff. |

Normal gameplay will teach you fundamentals. Do it. At least 6 hours worth. I also recommend objective gametypes to learn the maps faster.

Oh and try playing a private match with friends to practice aiming/shooting and learning the maps.
Best to do is no time limit, domination, 750 point limit. Hard to learn with a crosshair on your back all the time. |

I honestly didn't think I was going to get into this because I always prefered WW2 games as opposed to modern day/futuristic shooters.

Fallen Angel, where is your favorite sniping spot.
Mine would have to be on Estate. Over where the little boat house is on the side, you can climb up the barrels on the side, jump over to the pole, and then jump on the house. Stick a tactical insert up there, and you just snipe all day long. |

On Estate on the pile of logs to the side of the house, beside the little shed. You can see everyone trying to come over to attack the front of the house and see the boat house. It's perfect. Just have to be aware of people flanking you from the greenhouse, but even then you just crawl into the long grass while they stumble around looking for you and do a bit of knifing.

That's where I played like the only game as a "sniper" and killed this one dude like 10 times, died like once. He just kept getting really unlucky. It was hilarious though. I would snipe him a few times or something and then he would come around and I have the shotgun out and I would blast him in the face. Then some thing again where I was running to a different spot and he was randomly there and I blasted him again, then had to hide for an emergency airdrop. Then I went back to the first spot and started killing him again lol |

![]() Blue dot in south offices, thats me. I snipe into the area where the red box is and anywheres in between. The green dot at the bottom of the stairs is how I place the claymore, as they dont see it until its too late, since I have scavenger, I pull out my shotty and go reset it after it goes, off. When I make a sniper shot and get a kill, I crouch right away, pop up and look and fire if there is someone and crouch again if there is not. I normally only reload if I have 4 or less bullets left, sometimes I run out if I keep killing and people keep coming into view. Thats how I posted the 61-4-4 Call it cheap or what have you, but I am only doing what snipers do. |

I believe it's the Spetsnaz spawn on Estate, which ever one spawns right next to the house. Run to the little wall across from the door of the house. It's 2 tiered, so you can stand at one part and crouch at the other. Gives you a perfect line of sight to the smaller house with the garage, and the members of the other team will stream out from either side of that. Shooting gallery.
