I started really using the secondaries a couple of days ago - the AA stuff I always used but hardly ever touched the secondary guns - and, like Spazmonkey, I found it great! Glock with silencer and red dot (all I have unlocked atm) and suddenly Underpass was a charnel house.

With Ninja Pro, even Free For All matches were much easier. Corner campers, normally the bane of my life (as I do like to go a little "Rambo" when I can) barely had the time to even register my presence as I belted in and silently emptied my clip into their face.

Lovely stuff. As an added bonus, it really lets me get some good streaks with my ACR setup, as I used to get caught out a lot reloading whenever I used Assault Rifles. Its the hours and hours I spent with the RPD that was to blame there :eyebrows:

My WORST moments with emergency care packages has been in CTF games because I'm an idiot. TWICE I've called in emergency packages when theres only been like 10 seconds left on the clock- WHY DO I NEVER LOOK

I usually do well with them though-I think my best has been a Pavelow, Chopper Gunner, Harrier and UAV :)

I usually have Care Package, Sentry Gun and Harrier. I almost always save the care package and sentry until I have been killed to be safe (ish) when I use them.

More than once though I have killed an enemy player because he doesnt realise I have thrown two down a couple of seconds apart.

A guy watching me from behind a skip, he sees me throw "a" signal grenade, shoots me in the back, starts opening my beloved Sentry Gun and gets a Pave Low package in the back of the neck for his troubles. THEN I open both, steal his gun, kill him with it when he tries to get back to the packages, and shove a Sentry Gun on his still warm corpse.

We really really need to be able to replay videos of these moments, like Halo. Really.

I had connection problems last night so I had a go with the Spec Ops, I was very pleased because I picked up my Veteran stars for Sniper Fi, the bridge assault and the snow mobile one where you have to go through the gates.

That Special Ops is such a lovely package, I would pay for that without either the SP or MP, although it would need more challenges, obviously. I wish that bridge assault was about ten times longer!

Quick question regarding MP, I keep seeing red / pink boxes with a heart or something on them on the map, I assume that they are enemy care packages but I can never find them, even when I'm seemingly syanding right on top of them. What's up with that?

No, you can change classes on respawn in a match. Press start at any time, you get a list of classes. Pick one, next time you die you will respawn as the new class. Ill often change to my AA class (cold blooded + rocket launcher) when air support comes in.

One Man Army just means you can change without dying.

Anyone who uses Scavenger as their main perk owes it to themself to try and get extended mags for their AA-12. The amount of wrecking a 16 round autoshotgun can deliver is simply obscene. People just don't expect it. They hear a few booms and rush in because they think I'm reloading. Nuh uh. BOOM.

The AA-12 has been my secondary weapon of choice since I first unlocked it. The addition of a grip brings this beast under control, and, with the FMG, makes it an awesome backup.

Say the word "BANG" three times as fast as possible. Go on, say it. Now how's THAT for a shottie!

And it's the only weapon I've found that have riot shield users backing off once I've unleashed it aiming at the top of their shield.

FMJs don't add damage, only bullet penetration, which is negligible on a shotgun in the first place, take a sight or mags or something.

It adds a little more damage but that's not what I want it for, it's for wall penetration when I know someone is on the other side. It's bloody lethal!

I just don't see the point of adding sights onto the AA-12 because the range is pretty crap; anything more that 20 feet away is tough to take down. Shooting from the hip works perfectly up close.

Wasn't really sure if I actually wanted to get this after not really enjoying the first, but I got it on Friday and have been playing it all weekend. It's odd, bar the killstreaks and new kit and stuff, it just feels identical to the last one, but I'm enjoying it way more. I think the problem was by the time I got it, everyone online was amazing, and it was pretty painful for a low-level newb. But thankfully, I've only run into a few good teams in this and I can get my head round the mechanics without getting shat on too much.

But anyway, I've been trying to grind my way through the unlocks before I start trying to find a favourite gun and whatnot and the SCAR and P90 seem like early frontrunners. One question though, does the accuracy stat refer to bullet spread, recoil, or both? I think I changed something on my P90 and it was like I suddenly had Parkinson's.

Do you think the guy presenting the video is a little too into it?

That's Mack from Future Weapons, a former Navy Seal. He's really mental!

FMJs do not add damage, the game is lying to you. Every single bar in game is wrong.

It could be they add a bit to the damage bar to show penetration damage, because they didn't want to add a whole new bar to the menu just for penetration damage when you equip FMJ. You are right - the bars are not good indicators of what is better or worse.

What do you think of the M1014 vs the AA12?

I find the SCAR great at long range, I just tap the trigger to put 2 or 3 shots into people who are little more than a dot on the screen and they seem to die fine. I love it so much in fact that I've not used another gun since I unlocked it. I really need to start using the others.

I haven't got the discipline to squeeze out shots with an auto. I mean I have done it but the SCAR's range still ain't all that, M16 with an ACOG is where I'm very much at - and have been since the original MW. The ACR looks interesting though, I'll give it a go when I unlock it.

Every gun has infinite range, though. The bullet will always go where the sight is exactly. Just keep popping the trigger. Take people out with the silenced SCAR on the other side of the map all the time, providing they're still.

Ah, danke!

Also, another question! When you unlock stuff you get the 'New' popping up next to the relevent listing. As I'm only six hours in to the MP I get stuff unlocked after every match, and it seems the only way to get rid of the 'New' is to physically go and hover over the new item. It gets annoying having to do it through the myriad menus, anyway of group cancelling them?
