It's basically preference I guess. They would rather do run and gun then stop and look around the corner for a C4/Claymore. This would make sense in Search and Destroy I guess, but I don't get why they would do that in domination.

Probably just a difference in playstyle then. I ran like the wind with my SPAS and never really had problems with not getting the kill. It was fun.

Now I've finished the challenges with it and have moved on to the AA12. I don't like the AA12. :(

The Riot Shield isn't a gun.

And why FMJ on a SPAS? You aren't shooting through walls.

They're equipment, something you're required to have.

They would rather you have guns. Talk to them about it.

No, it does not. Only when you shoot through walls, I believe.

It increases the damage you get through bullet penetration, but not regular shots. That whole damage gauge thing is deceptive enough as it is. It should just say "Extra damage when shooting through penetrable walls." or something like that, and not say that the gun becomes stronger.

To me, the grip seems like a much better choice.

Well, there we go. I will start using grip instead of FMJ.

Wait, then why did people start saying Model 1887's blinged with FMJ, were as good as pre-patch? Was it just made up?

copied from the COD Wiki.

"Full Metal Jacket, often shortened to FMJ, is a weapon attachment in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Its effects on penetration are completely identical to those of Deep Impact from previous Call of Duty games. It does not increase damage against exposed targets. Instead, it reduces the amount of damage lost when shooting through materials."

Infinity ward patched the 1887 range to be decreased when you used akimbo because they thought it was too rigged. However, they were stupid as hell and somehow using bling with akimbo and FMJ registers as not needing to reduce the range, so they are the same as the original range.

"The probability of getting at least one of any item is as follows:

Ammo: 40.0%
UAV: 40.0%
Counter-UAV: 50.2%
Sentry Gun: 50.2%
Predator Missile: 45.3%
Precision Airstrike: 34.4%
Harrier: 18.5%
Attack Helicopter: 18.5%
Pave Low: 11.5%
Stealth Bomber: 11.5%
Chopper Gunner: 7.8%
AC-130: 7.8%
Players cannot receive Tactical Nukes, EMPs, Care Packages or Emergency Airdrops from Emergency Airdrops. It is not possible whatsoever, so if someone claims they have it is a lie."


this is also interesting. note, you CAN get EMP's from regular care packages.

Funny this is mentioned. Not but an hour ago I was playing SaD with my buds and gained a predator missile. As per usual, I held it for the next round. When that round started, I have to wait to use it, of course. Well, I seemed to have waited just a tad too long. Enemies used their care package. As I was using my boosters, looking at getting a double kill, an EMP is used. I mean, I was less that milliseconds from killing these guys. And because of the EMP, I was cheated out of a double kill.

Amazing killstreak.

I also love my gut-busting luck with care packages. AC130/Chopper Gunner/Harriers, all day.:laugh::laugh::laugh:

I think it's odd how the Counter UAV has a greater percentage than the normal UAV. Seems kinda backwards.

I don't like care packages period...

1. The randomness of your rewards (i've been in a match where someone has gotten a chopper gunner in about 30 seconds into a game of domination...)
2. People seem to have a knack for killing me right as i'm about to open my box! :(

REAL men use emergency air drops!

I don't like care packages or EADs. They take too much time to fall, and then there's the possibility of getting it stolen, and the fact that nothing good may come of it. They do make excellent bait, however.

Real men actually earn their kill streaks!

Really, one game this guy got TWO AC130s from care packages. So we lost, barely. It was so messed up.

Meh, considering you can get easy, higher killstreaks, it's good for scrubs who might never achieve them.

Got my first nuke last night...knifing on wasteland.

yeah, you read that right.

My harrier got emp'd at like 164 points, didn't even get a kill...

still amazed i did that :D, wasn't very satisfying though, i'm not gonna lie. 4-5-8 is more fun :p.

Holy ****. Nicely done, Tranzworld.

I'm at 12 nukes, on three different accounts, none of which are mine...

6 are with the standard nuke killstreak set, 4 are without Chopper Gunner/AC130, 2 are without killstreaks at all. But I've yet to get one with only knifing.

5/7/9 for me. I got my Pave Low 3 times in one match on Skidrow. 9 RPG double/triple kills for a 51-0-8 game.

This setup is sooooo fun.
