Call of Duty: Black Ops

G11 pwns. This gun would be overkill if you could use a regular dot sight and a silencer with it.

So, the m16 is still my fav. gun overall, AK74u is awesome to run it, and once in a while I'll roll with a commando or AK47 with a nube tube...just for a bit of variety.

i really don't like burst weps, mostly because i suck at them at close range

Aug baby... yeah. I'm lovin it.

AUG and FAMAS handle almost identically, both of which fire too quickly for my taste.

its just the direction of the kick that is different, one is more left-right and the other top/bot

i cant remember which is which. The Aug is one of the few guns i can run really well without a sight on it for some reason

Famas is more up/right.

G11 does less damage and has lower range than the M16. The only benefit is that it's burst is really quick.

I had fun playing while it lasted as I just rented the game.

Had my fingers crossed over black friday wkend for a deal on it, but of course no luck. Although a lot of stores had the new Medal of Honor for $35 which at that price I probably would have jumped on Black Ops.

Only gun in the game I like is the Ak74u. When I try to play with ANY other gun I do dramatically worse.

only deal was target had it for $10 on PC.

I prefer using the burst fire guns in this one b/c I tend to spray a bit too much with the fully autos and at close to med.. the ak74u just rocks. When I have an AR, I feel like I can hit anything at long range, so I'll try to spray at people from far away and end up wasting all my ammo.

That quick burst makes it so deadly at med/long to close range. I hip fire it often at close range. If I could put a silencer on it, man that would be awesome.

It seems like I get killed by more 1 burst from the G11 than the M16. Maybe the spreads are different. I haven't tried it myself, but it seems like it is really good from how often I see people getting kills with it.

I have been loving the Galil. It has lower rate of fire than the FAMAS and AUG, but I kill more quickly with it. Silencer and Dual Mags (which I now love) and I am in beast mode. Can't wait to unlock with AK47 again though.

 

[drbrock]

The G11 is amazing. I think the grouping is much more dense than the m16. With the sniper scope I am owning people with that gun. I am going to try the galil tonight. I am getting tired of the famas, need a change.

 

[DrunkenSano]

G11 with steady aim can hip fire kill people at medium range. M16 hip fire with steady aim sucks.

ok guys here is a very, very stupid question:

how does auto-aim work?

do i ADS then get close with the reticule and then just not touch the right stick anymore but just start blasting and the aim will correct to try to be closer to the target?

i typically will try to correct the aim by myself with the right stick but if i have auto-aim enabled i may be doing myself a disservice by actually over-correcting.

Try playing without it, then you'll know how it works.

 

[coldmeat]

I'm pretty sure you can't disable auto aim in MP. I think it mostly works when you're ADS. I've had times where I knew there was an enemy around the corner, so I went prone/crouched and sat there aiming waiting for him to run around, and the auto aim kicks in before he rounds the corner, so my aim is pushed away from where I wanted it and I missed.

edit: apparently you can turn it off? I don't remember if mine is off or on, I should check that. I remember turning it off but I thought it only affected SP.

 

[fbrdphreak]

In general, you want to get your reticule as close as possible to your target, and THEN ADS. Part of what auto-aim does is help tighten your reticule on the target when you're close to it, including when you go from hip-aiming to ADS.

Auto-aim will help compensate to a degree if the enemy moves while you're aiming at them, but for it to be successful you have to hit the enemy. This slows the enemy down and allows the auto-aim + your own aiming to stay on target. If you just try to use auto-aim and are firing and MISS, you generally won't stay on target enough to hit them after the fact.

You can also try pre-firing when it makes sense, where you hip-fire to get a few bullets landed and then ADS to finish the job. This helps if you are surprised and of course only if the enemy is relatively close.

The constant freezing is ridiculous... I'm getting tired of having to restart my PS3 just to play this game...

More than halfway to 2nd prestige.

I used the M16 for most of my first prestige, it's very accurate and great at medium-long range. Frustration with close range is the only reason I use the Galil instead. Regardless of which gun I use, my secondary is the crossbow or nothing. I'm awesome with the crossbow.

My attachments are dual mag and suppressor. Dual mag is pretty much a standard attachment for any gun that has it, and I go with suppressor because I don't mind iron sights and it's helpful to avoid radar pings. My perks are Hardline Pro, Warlord Pro, and Ninja Pro. I rarely change these. Because of spawn issues(most notably on nuketown), I stick to objective-based games, mostly demolition. Since I play demolition a lot, my killstreaks are SAM, care package, and mortar team. SAM is incredibly useful, and hardline pro means that if I already have a SAM up I can change the package to something else. Mortar team is pretty useful on most maps with demolition or domination.

It seems that when firing from the hip (non-ADS) that I get a lot of headshots at close range (hear the metallic "ding"). Has anyone noticed this as well?

Yeah, it was the same way in MW2. Weird. I often get more head shots from hip firing than from ADS..even when I point my cross hair right at their head.

Has anyone else noticed that the auto aim works through walls? I have been playing tons of CTF lately, and, when I am running around, my gun will sometimes randomly "lock on" through a satellite dish, fence, or piece of equipment and get an easy kill.

Yeah, there's beena few times where the auto-aim has pretty much told me whether or not an enemy is approaching from a location I'm aiming at.

 

[Kabob]

Yup, it's buggy.

 

[sygyzy]

Wait, this game has auto-aim? I wonder if mine has it on. I don't really notice the game "moving" my reticle at all. Maybe it does and I can't tell. No, I don't think so. I have plenty of shots that miss.

auto-aim doesn't make every shot hit. If you didn't realize there was autoaim, then yours is on.
