I've never even seen the Nuke. Does it just end the game?

 

First, there's a big announcement "It's all over!" and then a timer with the nuke symbol counts down 10 seconds. Then a bright flash, everyone dies (you can watch all the names scroll on the bottom left) and then the screen "burns". It's cool the first time, ghey after that.

Here are my loadouts and why:

1) UMP w/suppressor, Glock 18 w/suppressor, Slight of Hand Pro, Lightweight Pro, Steady Aim Pro

This is a good one for run-and-gun maps since I can get on target quickly, move quickly, and I am quiet. I use the Glock as my secondary since it transitions faster than the TMP.

2) ACR w/suppressor and red dot, TMP w/suppressor and FMJ, Bling Pro, Cold Blooded Pro, Ninja Pro

This is my sneaky loadout for maps like Derail. I also use it against teams with tons of good players - helps to balance things out.

3) ACR w/holo sight (EO-Tech), Glock 18 w/suppressor, Scavenger Pro, Hardline Pro, Commando Pro

This is my assault package when it's a map or a game where it doesn't matter if the bad guys know where I am. I have tons of ammo and an accurate rifle.

4) M21 EBR w/suppressor, TMP w/suppressor, Scavenger Pro, Cold Blooded Pro, Ninja Pro

My stealthy sniper package.

5) M4 w/grenade launcher, AT4, Scavenger Pro, Danger Close Pro, Commando Pro

This is my "blow shit up" load - Danger Close Pro gives added explosive power and against killstreak bonuses (ACs, etc.). One AT4 shot can take out anything w/Danger Close Pro. I also use this n00b tube setup to piss off dickheads on the other team. Since it has Scavenger Pro, I can pop off 20-30 M203 rounds per game.

 

Mmm....gotta love them dog balls...

 

 

Dog balls = good? I would have never thought that

 

Usually the "dog's bollocks" or the "mutt's nuts". And "Snatch" is one of my favorite movies ever...

 

That looks the sickness.

What is the most realistic game in terms of strategy/ AI etc Chris?

 

Yeah, Chris is right, the saying is "The dog's bollocks". It just means that something is really good.

Chris, I took your suggestion from above about the UMP, hadnt used it till last night. It was awesome. I was having such a crap night on MW2 until I created that class, after that I was top pretty much every game.

I also found a sweet spot on the Highrise map. On one corner of the map, near the building is a window cleaning scaffold that looks like it's hanging down. You can actually jump to it, grab on, then climb up and walk all the way along the roofline to another window cleaning scaffold and then climb onto the roof of the building. I'm not sure if it's a glitch in the game, it doesnt seem like it to me, but it is amazing for sniping. Nobody has any clue you are all the way up there.

 

Yah, Highrise has multiple "secret" places, although most people do now know how to get up there. In addition to the scaffolding you used, you can get to the crane that hangs over the side of the map in multiple ways, which can be good for sniping (assuming you move after each kill). You can also get on top of an overhang inside one of the main rooms, which is great for CTF defense.

My main three loadouts are:

1) Ranger (my do-all, run around class): M16 with red-dot sight, M9 with FMJ, Claymore, Stun grenades, Sleight of Hand Pro, Stopping Power Pro, Commando Pro.

2) Ninja (my stealth/CTF capturer): TAR with silencer, M9 with FMJ, Semtex, Stun grenades, Marathon Pro, Cold Blooded, Ninja Pro. I need to use the M9 a tad more so I can get the tactical knife, and start knifing more people.

3) Defender (my CTF defender class): AUG with red-dot sight and vertical grip, M9 with FMG, Bling, Stopping Power Pro, Steady Aim Pro.

I also have a class for with a Stinger for shooting down stuff in the air, whenever I start getting killed by them and no one else is shooting them down.

Medal of Honor looks pretty badass...

 

I've heard that Operation Flashpoint is PAINFULLY realistic, but having played Full Spectrum Warrior (also painfully realistic), those games are just not FUN. MW1 was pretty good as far as realistic missions go (esp. with the Marines). MW2 has gone a little "Michael Bay" - I still like it but there are some "uh, no way" moments. The assault on the oil rig is pretty good, but the bad guys wouldn't have all that artillery laying around.

My beef with most games is that they're catering to the 10-12-yr olds with some of the nonsense. If I were to do MW3, I'd leave out ALL the cowboy guns, put in all the guns REALLY being used (416, M110SS, MP7, MK46 and MK48, etc.), keep the damage the same, and make teamwork even more important (a team bonus or something).
