I just moved from medium to 5. Much, much easier to kill people more than 90 degrees away from you. Takes some time getting used to making precision shots though. I tried moving it up to 6 but that destroyed my ability to hit long shots.

I was talking to LML about it last night. He said he met a guy that looked exactly like Matt Damon.

Haha if that's true then no wonder it's so bad. I think I quit 25 or 30 games in a row today without ever getting 4 bars. It's just unplayable unless you're a shoot-em-in-the-back pro. I get into so many shootouts and knife contests that it's crucial to not be a quarter of a second behind. I don't see how any of you guys are like, "OMG I play just fine with three!"

No, I swear, they won't ****ing shoot anything down. I started hiding in corners just to see how long it would take them to shoot it down, but LOL they just keep running out and getting murdered.

Is it just me or does this game seem like it's going to get old fast. I'd be jonesing for some cod4 if I hadn't played it in 2 days but I'll hop on mw2 if I'm really bored, play 1 game and then it'd be whatever, if I get in a party I feel obligated to play out at least 4 or 5 not because I want to. The leveling up on this game is just tedious, been trying to get marathon pro and lightweight pro and I just run around the fringes to get this but I add like 1 mile every 6 games or so and all I do is run around non stop. I don't get point of some of these.

Well ya the game is boring if you make it into a running simulator. No real point in "trying" to get those, just let them come naturally. I'm finding the game a ton of fun, but I take a ton of satisfaction shooting down aircraft before they get a single kill.

So you shot a couple guys in the back and then started a Pred/Harrier/AC130 streak?

Ya 3 bars isn't really a problem if you play a flanking style or have a really good camping spot. It's almost certain death for 1v1s though.

Why aren't there more builds with sleight of hand pro? It seems like the faster aiming makes such a huge difference in face to face fights.

This + enemy care package incoming x 999999999 in every game = super fun awesome game

I had 2 or 3 matches in a row today where I hardly saw anyone before I died. Still don't know what to do in games like that, I wonder if I should just quit in the future.

After being unimpressed with them for a couple of days, I've finally learned to appreciate the akimbo rangers (haven't unlocked 1887s yet). As long as I could get someone in front of me, it seemed like I could blast them. Gotta agree that it's a little obnoxious how overpowered the kinfe/old school shotties are.

Play with SOH pro and then play a game with an LMB or sniper rifle without it...it's like adding a new degree of difficulty.

because scavenger pro is great too. You can also use steady aim as 3rd perk so you don't even have to aim down the sights if you're close enough.

I had a game of domination on Terminal start with such BS. My entire team, other than me, rushes C gets butt raped I cap A, enemies cap B and C. I kill one guy at A, get shanked by marathon + commando spawn in front of him he shanks me again, spawn die to a grenade, spawn get shanked in the back, and then spawn directly in front of the same guy again and he shanks me in the back once more. Instantly rage quit after that...
