I've never gotten killed by it unless the person was two feet away in hardcore mode; and I've only gotten 20 some kills with it in the 3 hours of time that I had it equipped.Tdc2182 said:
I don't know who killed you with it so many times for you to think it was overpowered, but they must have been an M93 GOD.
The main rule about this game is teamwork. It is life. Rushing out alone is almost never an advisable strategy. You should also remember that this game has a lot more emphasis on long range combat, do not assume any area is safe, chances are it isn't.
100% right, sometimes i can pump half a magazine into an enemy and they wont go down but then 3 M1911 .45 rounds take them right out.natster43 said:
I have absolutely nothing of value to say. Time was I could have given you good advice as someone who habitually came 1st or 2nd in most rounds of BF or MW.
Lately I've been appalling at every online FPS I own. I. Just. Cant. Stop. Dying. Could be my 26th Birthday has marked the point at which I start sucking badly.
So actually I do have some useful advice; the minute you feel you're getting old you may want to either stop playing or kill yourself at the start of every round so that other people don't have to go out of their way to do it for you.

When up against a sniper heavy team, don't be afraid to go sniper(for the suit), find a nice shrub on a hilltop and slowly pan your cursor over the playing field while mashing the spot button. This results in you getting a ton of xp completely risk free if you don't open fire(if you do, you will be spotted on the killcam) and even in small matches, 3 people shooting through foliage and actively seeking out enemies typically beats 4 people running around with no purpose whatsoever.
Two things that I can not stress enough. Help your teammates. And play the match type the way your supposed to
Examples are:
Spot enemies (if your not playing hardcore)
If you're a Recon: use your motion mines
Engineer: Repair vehicles and destroy the enemies. (Engineers are the best equipped for vehicle destruction)
Medic: Defib dead teammates, drop health packs for everyone on your team.
Assault: Drop ammo packs.
You'll get a lot of points and level up faster if you do those things
If you play Rush and are an attacker, don't sit back in your spawn sniping people.
Arm the M-Comm stations and make sure they blow up. When you defend make sure they don't destroy the M-Comm stations. Don't run around in the enemies spawn. That's not helping out. When the stations get armed, defuse them. Don't sit there and watch them blow up.
If your playing Conquest.
Not really much to do other than give your squad mates a good place to respawn, capture flags, defend the ones you have and kill the enemy.
And one more thing...don't be a Recon that sits at the back of the map.

Squads are super useful. Even if they don't have mics. You can spawn on them, for one thing, and they can spawn on you to provide backup. Also, you can earn extra points for helping them, and on any objective you are ordered/placed an order on to attack/defend (do this yourself by looking at an objective and pressing back, if you didn't know).
With an assault or sniper kit, choose a weapon not part of the regular kit like a shotgun and take C4 if you're using the recon kit. If you have them, use the perk that lets you carry more explosives and gives you more explosive damage. Get to one of the objectives and put all your C4 on the objective. Arm it, get away from it and blow the C4. This will easily yield 350-500 experience points and really helps out your team.
Just a couple points on using shotguns...
Nothing can hold a building like a Recon player with a shotgun. Use the motion detector to know where the enemy is, and the rest is simple as it's pretty much impossible to lose in close quarters when you have a shotgun and you can predict when the enemy will appear. Either mash the fire button with a semi automatic shotgun or take a single well aimed shot with a pump action (particularly if you're using solid slugs) and your enemy will drop like a sack of potatoes.
12 gauge slugs are brilliant (Note: how can you have a 12 gauge slug? I thought '12 gauge' referred to the lead pellets found in buck shot), particularly when used with the pump action shotguns. You'll be able to get one hit kills from an impressive distance and two hits will down a target from almost any range that you can actually see them from.
Don't underestimate the 40mm underslung shotgun. The underslung grenade launcher isn't that great but the close range killing power of the shotgun is brilliant when someone thinks they can rush. However it's almost entirely useless against multiple opponents since you have to reload after every shot.
I find the additional shotgun clip capacity perk is useful with semi automatic shotguns, as well as taking the additional ammo carrying capacity perk in order to compensate for your new found trigger happiness.
General tips:
Make sure you at least try the AN-94 assault rifle when you unlock it; from what I've read here it's a love hate thing, but I found I could tear everyone apart with it using magnum ammo and a 4x scope.
Also try out the Carl Gustav; it's much more useful against enemies on foot than the RPG, and makes it worthwhile to take the extra explosive ammo perk. However the RPG is better against vehicles (especially helicopters), mainly because it doesn't give them a second or too between contact and explosive death which they can escape during. Also it's good for long range support (aka: spamming
).
PS: I haven't actually played the game in about a month, so my advice may have been rendered completely obsolete by a big nerf or other such update.
