Annoying Dog
Took advantage of the holiday sale and got CoD AW + season pass on my xbone. I'll probably send a request for an invite in the Boys clan if there's any space left, my gt is BobbyBeaudoin.

Also decided to play blops 2 on 360 again since I p.much skipped it due to lag issues, it's refreshing seeing people use all kinds of different guns. I'm getting sick of having to deal with the ASM1 in AW at all times.


Edit: I never thought about doing hardcore, that sounds like a great idea, plus it'll allow me to level the mk14.

what horror the gas

I've been playing exclusively hardcore since no one has been on when I'm playing, and the fact that every gun is viable is fairly fun. Got my first 15 gun-killstreak too, but got killed by an ally assault drone. I loving hunted that guy down and TKed him til I got booted for that, ugh.

I have high hopes for the gameplay patch next week. Condrey has been alluding to not heavily nerfing anything but instead relying on buffs to alter the weapon balance.

I'm still utterly baffled as to why they buffed the EM1, it was not exactly feeble to begin with.

What guns do you prefer for Hardcore? I've been rotating between the damage buffed versions of the SN6, AK, Ameli, and the ASM1 Reckless.
I have the +1 damage MK14, but it's still crap even in HC.
I want to like the burst-fire weapons, but the Pro-Pipe is the only one I have with a damage bonus. :geno:

I've been grinding camos for the LMGs. The EM1 with an ACOG and heat sink was pretty good and hilariously rage-inducing (2/3 games had someone end it with "THAT loving LASER GUY, THAT'S BULLSHIT MAN")

Then I swapped to the Pytaek and even with no perks and no attachments I've been doing 25-35 kills a game in dom, typically while winning. I'm 2 kills short of gold, then I can add stuff to make a real class and see how insane it gets.

It's quite good, and I don't even hate the irons now.

Me either, now that I've gotten used to them, but I still think I'll swap to something else. Maybe Thermal just to grind the kills for the calling card, or something. Or maybe I'll get frustrated with how much I hate thermal scopes in these games and drop it after two games.

It was pretty poo poo on consoles. Then, on 360 at least, it got an absurd buff that put it head and shoulders above everything else.

The thermal is really good for grinding the head/longshots, but yeah it's a pretty solid gun.

Wait, they still haven't removed the skull from system hack on the old consoles? Is High Moon studios trying to be worse than Beachhead or something?

Uh, isn't the tradition to say it's better than the current game?

Also, I don't recall anybody doing that with CoD3, World at War, or MW3, so it can't really be a tradition.

People definitely went back to MW3 after BLOPS 2, especially when it first came out and wasn't working right. World at War is the outlier in this situation because people went "Uh, COD4 is a better game" and played that instead of WaW.
