Protip: If you haven't prestiged then you have no reason to get 500 headshots on any gun because it gives you nothing. Just stop and move on after fall camo.

Yeah, you're getting XP for 500 headshots which will dissappear when you prestige. Prestige now so that you can start working on your prestige challenge headshots, those you'll keep with you forever!

I'd pay for COD4 maps. That's how much I like them.

+1. Well...I'd pay for most of them:
-Crash, Crossfire, Downpour, Strike, Backlot, District, Broadcast, Vacant, Ambush, Pipeline...and MAYBE Overgrown I'd pay for.

-Creek, Chinatown, Wet Work, Showdown, Bloc, Bog, and Countdown I'd be fine not seeing again.

No kidding... the map pack for COD4 was awful. Broadcast was cool, but I uninstalled the whole thing so I'd stop being put into lobbies with them.

I did enjoy Bloc, mostly for the same reasons I like Overgrown, though: all the snipers were complete fodder for my pwnage

I didn't mind playing on any of the DLC maps, but I didn't like Chinatown, Creek, or Showdown much. Broadcast turned into one of my favorite maps.

Man, I really sucked when I first started. Looking at the scores leaderboard, everyone else around me has like 1/4 of the time spent playing.

Anyways, what happens if I have SitRep Pro and someone comes up with Ninja Pro? Do their silent footsteps cancel out my ability to hear lound footsteps and thus they sound like normal footsteps?

Actually, I've heard that Sitrep Pro doesn't actually cancel out people using Ninja Pro. I can't say for sure because I haven't used Sitrep Pro, but according to this, people with Ninja Pro are still quiet to Sitrep Pro users.

as a noob mw2 online player - how the hell do some people run so fast? is it a certain loadout/perk? also, is the built in "aim bot" that you have in the sp version of the game in the multiplayer? lots of fun, lots of deaths

Perk 2 has a perk called Lightweight. Lets your move fast. Perk 1 you can have Marathon, which lets you sprint forever. Combine the two for your speed class. Also, some weapons slow you down (heavy). A sub-machine gun is the lightest and thus lets you run the fastest.

There is "aim assist" in MP but I don't think it works to the same extent it did in SP.

i did have those 2 perks on the kit - maybe the other people didn't or maybe the pro version as i was brought down like a gazelle getting nailed by a cheetah - knife in the back no less - the kill cam showed the guy running after me and catching me rather quickly - i had m4+spas+marathon+lightweight so guess loadout was too heavy. this has happend more than a couple of time, so am actually setting up classes/loads for different uses. will keep learning - only lvl 6, getting pwned by lvl 50+ people....

There is a cheat/bug from what I've heard. Get a killstreak care package and pull out the DZ smoke grenade but don't throw it. Apparently if you have that out you run faster than normal and can still knife. Or so I've heard.

That was actually a designed feature . The idea was that you could run away from a situation and throw your marker, but people abused it for knifing - there's a patch for the PC version that removes the extra run speed for the care package marker.

More "fun" is the new unlimited care package glitch. Switch to your care package, find a box or ledge or something that has a "Press A to -->" prompt, press A to get up on it, then while you're in the animation to get on the box, keep pressing your care package marker button (right D-pad on the XBox). When you're on the box, you can then throw your care package and either use One Man Army to switch classes or pick up and use whatever comes in and you'll have another care package marker. There are videos on Youtube if this isn't very clear

This works with Care Package, Sentry Gun, and Emergency Air Drop markers.

I have to say I'm doing an impressive job with this setup:

ACR + Silencer
Sleight of Hand or Scavenger (haven't picked which is my favorite)
Stopping Power
Steady Aim

M1014 ... only red dot so far as I have not unlocked grip or extended mag

So what is everyone's favorite shotgun...and how do you load them out? The M1014 seems to be the only one I've consistently used...but maybe I just didn't give the others enough of a shot.

I like either the M1014 or the auto shotgun. Either way, its a nice backup to the ACR which I'm currently addicted to. Red dot is the only add on i've even used on any of the shotguns.

I had a good game on Quarry the other day.
It started out and i ran to the place on the bottom left hand corner of the map and 4 guys came around the corner and i mowed them down.Then i went around the corner and a dude with a riot shield killed me...lol. Anyway i ended up 36-8 which is really good for me.

Nearly 2500 posts in this thread and teh game has only been out a few months. I think that speaks to the epicness of this game! Even with all the problems it is an amazing game.

I recently prestiged and I miss having the M1014 with extended mags! I loved that shotgun. As for the others, the Spas-12 and the AA-12 are the only other shotty's I really like. Actually, I prefer the Spas-12 to the M1014 until I get extended mags for the 1014.

Once I prestiged, I started using the FAMAS, and I love it! FAMAS with any attachment + scav pro + stopping power pro + commando pro (will switch to ninja pro when i get it) owns.

Of course I'll probably go back to my UMP45 and/or RPD+grip eventually.
