MK14 is a really good gun.
I picked up one with rapid fire and got a triple kill with like 4 bullets. It was wonderful. As soon as I unlock it I am going to use the **** out of it.

Oh, Alex, I brought my K/D up by like .05 yesterday after an hour of playing.

Expect me.

I'm so glad I brought that gun with me on my quest for prestiging. I haven't bothered with rapid fire yet (I don't think my trigger finger is fast enough), but I love that gun. Love love love love love that gun.

When you use it, make sure your green perk is Marksman.

TRUST ME.

Surprisingly enough, I've heard that they're doing some work on the spawns. I say surprisingly because I pretty much expected them to just leave them terrible like they are right now and laugh at us.

The spawns have been the #1 problem thus far, or at least for me they have. Few away from a MOAB and the dude spawns behind me....SMH. :glare:

My question is why exactly are the developers still failing at perfecting the spawn system? What is this... the 8th Call of Duty?

You'd think they would have a reliable system by now, right?

I just know that you're bad Wretched. It's cool if you disagree though.

Juggernaut is the best thing to ever happen in this game ever.
LOL

So...Is there any reason to not use Assassin?

I mean, it's OP as ****. It does as much as 2 or 3 perks should be doing. :V
No one uses assassin in MW3. :troll:

Rofl @ Odin and tim. I seriously hate final stand in this game...and I was killed by dead man's hand 3 times tonight. Yay skilled players.

I have a 2.39 K/D and I rush constantly without assassin. In fact, I don't have a single class out of 9 custom classes with assassin on. I use specialist with it obviously but I don't have it on 24/7 with that. I really can't stand the perk, it's just a pathetic way to get kills honestly.

Also - W/L > K/D. K/D is a seriously inaccurate way to measure someone's skill, especially if they mess around using shotguns and silly class setups often.

But hey.

*puts on sunglasses*

Why use a shotgun when you can have a sniper? Shotgun and long range laser all in one! #winwinwinning (really though)
I'd rather die to someone using final stand than dead man's hand IMO. I'd feel...slightly less annoyed.

You must seriously hate this game if all you do is complain about it. You should probably stop posting.
Welp.

Go back to the CoD4 spawns. D:

I've only ran into a few games where assassin was a big problem. Even then, you can't just rely on the UAV all the time, in all honestly there isn't a lot of skill involved in that either.

Just stop using UAVs. I wish the animation was shorter like it was in Black Ops.

pro tip: use silencers
Silencers actually lower damage in this game? :troll:

No, I'm saying that for people complaining about people using assassin not appearing on the UAV that relying solely on the UAV when its out isn't a good thing to do. Frankly it doesn't take a whole lot of skill to just look at your mini-map and look at the red dots. It only makes sense that there will be a counter to such a killstreak. Especially when UAV's are so easy to get. I don't blame people for using assassin, especially in a game that has several maps where there are so many buildings that it is almost impossible to find the UAV's and shoot them down. The only option then is to either use assassin or let the enemies have the advantage unopposed.

I can't say I blame people for using assassin in this game. I do it.

Camping with assassin and using assassin are two totally different things
QFT.

And was there an update for MW3 this week? Like, I wish they posted the official patch notes/details on the official forums...I just took this from 402's twitter and other CoD forums. It's either a playlist update or a TU. =/

Unless I can find a thread on the official CoD MW3 forums for this kinda stuff, it's gonna take longer than usual and stuff to confirm everything. =/

Playlist/hot-fix updates are automatically applied when you back out and reload the MP. TU requires you to download a full blown patch for the game.

What attachment and proficiency should I use for the metaknight14?

:phone:
This is my favorite gun in any CoD ever.
It doesn't need any proficiencies, so I used Red dot and Rapid Fire, because I can shoot it fast enough.
Actually, here are my two setups:

MK14 @ Red dot/Rapid fire - 2 attatchments
Sleight of Hand
Quickdraw
Stalker

MK14 @ Silencer - Focus
Blind Eye
Assassin
Marksman

I use silenced MP9 on all of my classes. MP9 silenced is the best secondary in the game. It is better than the PP90.

Also, My K/D has gone up by .1 after playing for an hour today.
I'm at like 1.15 and rising.

Hopefully they leave the spawns in FFA the way they are.

I've got my routes down on most of the maps now.

I think I have only lost like 3 out of 20 or so FFA's.

Lol I just got 2 headshots, plus a longshot, with 1 bullet of my SPAS.

Unlocked the All Pro emblem for it.
I was pretty static until I got to "1 bullet of my SPAS." I've got to see/download this. The imagery it pasted in my mind was just... convoluted.

You had me until Stalker.

Stalker isn't a bad perk. I just don't think it's for everyone. Banjo will agree with me. Trying it again last night, you can move WAY too fast. :-/ More power to you if you can use it though.

I really like Marksman with it. Focus is my preferred pro. with it. I'd rather not flinch when I'm trying to snipe with that gun. <3 <3 <3

It doesn't need the Pro version, and I haven't tried using Breath pro. with it. It COULD be a good fit, by why bother? Might try it. Could be goofy and fun. But I love that gun.

I prefer no sights/holo/hybrid sight.

Also PIPA and CISPA
I'm still annoyed at how the Theater Mode in general is so barebones. You'd think that after Black *****, they'd at least expand the amount of time you have for a clip to a minute instead of the usual 30 seconds

I really don't like kill confirmed.

Unless you are playing with a full team.

Also Swampert, the Jugs missions are the easiest ones apart from the target ones.

Flood the market took me the longest to do.

In general I thought that all the single player content was far easier than MW2.

mk14 is the only primary that i can't use a supressor with.
getting one shot kills (headshots) and consistently getting two shot kills at a good range.
feels great.

there's hardly any sway, so idk why breath would be good.
i think i'm running focus and red dot, but it almost doesn't matter.

I'm not sure if this has already been posted or not but I learned a few pretty cool tips from it!

3 UAVS at the same time from different people on the same team become Advanced UAV

With Color Blind Mode enabled you can see enemy Stealth Bomber

Sitrep will tell you if an enemy care package is real or not

You can level up your sitrep by deploying and then destroying your own Trophy System

On an enemy strafe run, shoot the middle helicopter to take out the other two. They will give you multiple points towards your pointstreak for each helicopter destroyed

Get Blast Shield Pro (immune to flash and stun nades) by blowing up barrels and cars while standing next to them

Turn off theater mode for less lag

Specialist killstreak + hardline = fast leveling up of pro perks (can get hardline pro in a few games)

When using specialist, don't have your original 3 perks include Sleight of Hand or Scavenger, but have them as your rewards since you won't need to reload or get more ammo until after you have already killed a few enemies

Shooting down air support, taking dom points, capture and returning flags, and assists (with hardline pro), all count towards killstreaks *Assassin will keep you from being seen by UAV/AUAV, but Blind Eye will keep you from being shot by helecoptors/AC130, do not confuse the two

Juggernauts have about 500 health, and can heal all of it back if they take no damage for long enough. They are NOT invincible, and can be easily killed with focused fire and surrounding them, 5 knives also does the trick. When someone has a jug on your team, let them enter a firefight first, draw fire, then you enter in and kill everyone doing the shooting

Bouncing Betties don't affect you when in prone, no matter how close you are. All weapons (at least ARs and SMGs, not sure about shotguns and sniper rifles) get an increase in idle sway the longer you aim down sight

If you clear all your Assault Killstreaks and use only UAV and hardline, you can get a UAV for every 2 kills. This applies to everything killstreak

Yeah, consoles are fully capable of rendering who gameplays. =/

Yep, I've done everything on Veteran.

Maybe I'm just a Spec Ops badass ;)
I still need to do that...

And nice find, TRG! I didn't know a few things on that list!
