I just run with Stock and Grip. Like perks too much and I seem to do well enough with it with just those two attachments.

Definitely do whats best for you but it really shines with an ELO and Rapid fire as well.

Two smokes, man o war with thermal. Just toss them at the vortex and shoot mans through the smoke.

The man o war is a loving beast. I ran it so much that I prestiged it twice and unlocked all the camos in my first player prestige. I loved the m8a7 after I got the 54 or 55 and considered using my unlock on it. I stuck with dead silence though because there's nothing quite like sneaking up on someone who's carefully taking their shot to reap that sweet sweet headshot.

I'm running reflex until I unlock all the reticles for it. I think I just have the long shot one left. After that I'm switching to the scopes to unlock all of those reticles followed by thermal for all of those. Precious xp and all...

It's actually necessary on the Dredge; the carry handle sits on the same shooting horizon as the ELO, and can block crucial sight lines.

Trying to imagine the chances of getting 2-3 attachment variants on one gun and lucking out so one of them isn't an invisible quickdraw/rapid fire.

I am stuck at 9/10 on the infantry kills with the xm 53. I've point blank shot people just standing there in the face and killed them, but it refuses to give me the kill toward the camo unlock. :-(

It's only at level 9 currently, so no. I've been trying to grind it all day since I prestiged my player this morning. It's moved VERY slowly up all along. Entirely possible that I'm not really hitting the other player, but there were two instances where they were standing still and I aimed at center mass and still nothing. It's the last camo to unlock to get diamonds on the launchers, so there's a good chunk of early game xp riding on one single kill. I'll probably jump two levels from that alone.

Sorrowful be the heart
I am really new to the game but I think playing with the Brecci too much has made it hard to use anything else. Instead of making me get better, the Brecci was remarkably effective with my normal playstyle which is "stumble into the whole opposing team and then panic and start screaming and shooting everywhere." I can see why people get so salty about shotgun kills because it'd be clear to anyone watching that I'm just wildly blasting everything in sight.

That sucks because the normal animation is already extremely badass and I was hoping there was more. Tearing up turrets and guardians and the robot in Safeguard with that thing is so much fun and it's still really good after the nerf (seems like if you die right after activating it you start with around 60% charged instead of 75%?) and you can still use it constantly with Overclock on anyways . I'd feel kind of silly using a Prestige Token on it but I'm tempted to this time around because it's just extremely satisfying and it's almost impossible to not get a couple kills out of it

Cool, I'll try out the warmachine lady first. Blowing stuff up seems like it would fit my playstyle.
I only need 2 more double kills with the purifier, and 2 more with heatwave and I unlock the final costume. Unfortunately, I didn't unlock the heatwave ability, so I have to wait until I'm level 46 again before I can get those stupid 2 kills :)

Since some people have asked how to aim properly, and since there are very few videos for the PC release, here's a short clip of a TDM game I joined in progress that I did well on to kind of give an example of what I'm talking about.

Note: This is not an endorsement of my playstyle of "reload all the loving time and wander out like a goober", my mechanics are solid but actually thinking about the game is where I become a moron.
