That argument only holds true, as long as something remotely describable as 'balance' exists. In Mw2, using the ump or any of the assault rifles made a difference, but a small one. In black ops, using the 74u or the aug, is a difference between 4.0 and 2.0 K ratio (for my playstyle, anyway). And that's where using certain guns starts getting fishy.jobobob said:The noobs are people who use guns out of some sense of morality, I use a famas flamethrower, and rpg: Play to win.
That's what makes me a noob too. I don't even know what weapons are good or not. That's why I usually play a demo or medic class. I know what to do when I play them, and weapons are kind of secondary.hittite said:The fact that I don't have a lot of time to play and I'm not very good.

You are right, that DOES make you a noob. Play to have fun, its not a life or death situation Sgt. Serious... after all, its just a game.jobobob said:The noobs are people who use guns out of some sense of morality, I use a famas flamethrower, and rpg: Play to win.
Seconded.jobobob said:The noobs are people who use guns out of some sense of morality, I use a famas flamethrower, and rpg: Play to win.
Hey now, you'll break my heart I use Ghost in Cap the flag when defending the objective and I'm not that evil. :/flaming_squirrel said:MPL, rapid fire, SoH > AK74uomega_peaches said:Think about the last online multiplayer game you have played.
Done? Okay, now, in that game, what makes you a noob?
For me, Black Ops.
AK74u, Grip+Rapid Fire.
No, I do not mind the FAMAS.
Corner campers with ghost on the other hand are the spawn of satan.
straight from the horses mouth look at some of the recent extra credits and you see that many of the things considered "noobish" is something put in for newbies to get in and have some fun.zehydra said:let me expand this by saying in every multiplayer game, (not just Team Fortress 2), anything will make you a noob. Saying "noob" is really just the rage talking. Don't even bother trying to come up with a rational justification for labeling this and that as noobish and pro. It's all bullshit.gigastar said:Team Fortress 2, according to some people, anything. One shining example was shortly after the WAR Update [http://www.teamfortress.com/war/part1/index.htm] and I got my bloody man-hands on a Direct Hit. After some trail/error I got used to how it worked and racked up consistent kill streaks and about half a dozen dominations.
The 'noob' part comes in when I noticed someone was specifically coming after me. after two dozen or so failures in one of my lives, he finally cornered me with a FaN and killed me.
The guy then proceeded to call me a noob through the chat in block caps then immeadiatly left the server afterwards.
