This game is the bane of my existence.

IW better get off their ***** after their break and fix this game ASAP.

In response to your question, F8AL: Mine did not. I got it three years ago, Arcade bundle. If it came with a mic, I would have held onto it until I got XBL Gold, however.

FMG9 Akimbo LOOOOOL. I think my aim is why I do so bad; it's pitiful. I am messing around with the stick sensitivity, and right now, I'm on 8. Will up it as the personal need arises, but my aim needs to improve, no doubt about that.:applejack:

Edit: Nope, it's not just my aim. Going 2-23 is more than just bad aim.

Solid advice.

Odin, I have completed your challenge! As I had expected, I grew to hate the KSG because it is an awful awful weapon, even with Damage proficiency. Then again, I was also attempting to use it on maps I don't typically shotgun on, so difficulty was to be expected.

Thunder, I've been gradually increasing it since BO, though the transfer to MW3 was so drastic, I decided to restart. By the time I got my own copy for Christmas, I was on 5. 7-8 feels like my current comfort zone, but you may be right about me advancing too quickly with the sensitivity. What should I turn it down to?

Thanks, Wretched. I have a sharp spike in my anxiety when I die, and I move around/run like there's no tomorrow; I loathe camping/sitting still with a passion.:applejack:

Moving slowly and/or walking around corners while aiming to be safe doesn't feel like camping to me, but I only do it if I am playing really good players.

I've actually been walking around corners, and walking in general a lot more over the last few weeks.
When I say I dislike camping, I mean I do not like being on my own in one location for excessive amounts of time, especially a building or corner. I feel as if the spawns take advantage of my solitude. I also feel a bit more at ease when I know who I'm playing alongside, one could say I play 'safer.' Too hectic with random players, especially without a mic.:applejack:

Moving from one safe place to another to secure kills is the best way to play this game.

It's more tactical defending rather than camping.

Looking at it from that perspective, it seems like a more acceptable playing style to me. I'm not certain of making it routine, however.

I noticed from a tutorial: I almost never strafe unless an entrance is adjacent, or directly to my side and I know an enemy is present inside. Would it be proper for me to utilize strafing more?:applejack:

I was kinda joking.

Depends on the map/weapon really.

I was pretty campy/defensive in all the other CoD games.

But in this one I run around lots.

It's just so much fun.

Sesitivity can make or break your accuracy if you're not in your comfort zone. I also mentioned earlier that my accuracy needed improvement.

It seems I need to implement strafing, safer play, and other tips.:applejack:

One thing I can say helps a lot is aiming as you go around corners.

Also moving around the edges of the map looking at your UAV for flanking possibilities.

As in ADS while slowly walking around corners? That can be done. I also lose a lot of long range encounters. I spend too much time trying to get the directly in the sight of my reticle, and I take ridiculous punishments. Should I hip-fire more in close proximity encounters? Not so close as to where I can successfully rush in and melee, but closer than mid range. I feel like the FMG9 suits that range well.:applejack:

Yeah I mean ADS while going around corners.

What I do usually is hip fire when you 1st run into them, but ADS as I'm firing depending on the distance.

With the FMG's you can win almost any close range encounter.

They used to do work mid range too, but since the nerf they don't really anymore, unless you get lucky and a bullet headshots them.

What load out do you use for interests sake?

My most frequently used class is UMP45(Kick and Holographic Sight), FMG9(nothing equipped, as of current, but going to consider Akimbo once obtained). Perks: SoH Pro, Assassin Pro, Stalker Pro. Lethal on Throwing Knife, Tactical on Flashbang. Assault class, with deastreak set to Juiced(I do not tamper with my deathstreak settings).

I commonly use a sniping class in Survival, when I want to practice.:applejack:

First of all,

:glare:

Secondly:

Pics, video, and or wear the title the next time I see you.

Let the record show,

THE KSG IS THE WORST SHOTGUN IN THE GAME. DELTA HAS MADE IT SO.

Hey Snack,

Did you like it when I jacked your WALL-E Assault drone and reaper last night? :troll:

I'm surprised they weren't hacked air drops, I was expecting to die. :awesome:

This is why I run Sit-rep, or don't bother with enemy Air Drops now.

Kudos to anyone who gets my other reference up there.

I don't think I've put it in all caps the entire time I've ever typed it. My apologies. :(

You don't get a title for getting it to Gold...

I'll take a picture!

KSG 12 lvl 4.

NICE TRY BRO!!!!!!! :troll:

You get a title for unlocking all proficiencies/attachments with a weapon. That's the one I was looking for.

Quoted for truth.

But people will never listen to that. They think it's cool to move their screen around quickly. High sensitivity gets girls, I hear.
Giggity.

Kept mine on 2 with FPS freaks, never looked back. Even a ****** like me can have near-perfect aim with that.

Going to take a short break from this game, let me know when they fix the spawns and other flaws in this game.

They'd also better fix the kill streak glitch where if you get two of the same kind, you can only use one.

How it's not fixed yet blows my mind on something as simple as that. They let you do that in MW2 and Black Ops. >.<

MW3 takes so many steps back.
