If we all use the turret and tell you how great it is will you stop posting about it? We'll all get in a big remote turret private game and have great goon times. And you'll stop posting. It'll be a blast.

If you ever find my diary, every page just has that written on it over and over again. Except for the appendix.

Edit: Whiskey is a better drink to play COD to because it gets you drunk faster and you forget you are playing COD.

Everyone can appreciate such a momentous occasion.




That reminds me. My first care package dropped on my idiot head and killed me and then it was that stupid sun ray that I wasn't able to get a single hit marker with. As I've always claimed, I'm bad and dumb.

Can anyone confirm for me whether or not using Gung Ho with the Heavy Shield results in it actually covering your face while sprinting?

The first-person animation changes so that it's always fully in your view, but from watching my deathcams it looks like your character still holds it down and to the side when they sprint, so it doesn't actually protect you like it seems to.

Has anyone tested this?

Just watch your kill cam a bunch, it will show you exactly what the enemy is seeing, if it looks like you are not holding it in front then you aren't and the game is telling you bad poo poo in first person view.

Tac Knife running is really fun guys. I need to break out of my shell and try something different, I feel like I always end up using either hte SAC3, the KF5, the HBR, or the railgun with knife.

All console platforms. If you decided to buy it on PC then there's a separate thread for that.

Correction: you will see what the server sees. The game transmits a dataplot replay from the servers perspective, so you will see what the server sees which will be closer to what the enemy player saw than what you saw especially if there is any kind of host fuckery going on and the guy who killed you has a better ping. This is why it will sometimes seem like the kill cam is not even close to what you saw on your screen.

It has travel time, you have to lead with it, but any hit to the main torso or head is OHK. Everything else takes two shots.

Well I kinda see why people would prefer not to get into platform specific talk on a general game thread. Likewise, that sort of thing probably should go for any platform.

It's pretty weird how posting a PC rig setup triggers some folks though. I can see why people would want a good thread to talk about this in but we both know where that thread is :smuggo:

I think you're supposed to line up your shot before hitting the thrusters. You can only aim the little missiles.

I was killed by someone in there repeatedly. You can shoot out but not in, stuck a grenade to it and hit it with a rocket and nothing.

Whenever I used the stock model I would get a one hit kill maybe 75% of the time, I assume that extra damage guarantees a one shot kill? If so, super jealous.

Sure but it has 3 accuracy, which means even ADS you miss half the time.
