Does anyone here play COD? Last week I got number 1 on the weekly Black Ops leaderboards for Hardcore Search and Destroy. I take pride in it because its the game mode that takes the most strategy to play and my strategy is unique and better than most. I also play Headquarters both core and hc. How often do you play (any game mode) how quickly did you get better at it and what is your strategy?

In HC Search, I use what I call the "KITE" strategy all maps have 3 main routes: left, right, and middle. Consider the diamond shape of a kite. It has 4 sides and line right up the middle. My strategy is take the middle route and double back by flanking either left or right side while moving as quickly as possible. The kite has 4 angles and each angle is an important spot. Your team's spawn is on the "South" angle and the enemy's "North." The angle to the left, the "West" angle is Bomb A the "East" angle is Bomb B. If one can learn this they will figure out routes and general enemy movement. The other advanced aspect of this strategy is what I a call the "Contact Point" The contact point is defined as the point where one player meets an enemy player somewhere towards the middle of one of the three routes. I will not get into this part as much because there are other parts to taking advantage of the contact point IE: using perks like lightweight/marathon to get to the contact point first for the element of surprise etc. This is the format I use to DOMINATE people in this game.

I used to play COD MW2 multiplayer but then I realized it was a waste of hours (because I suck at it, I would have like a 1/10 k/d ratio). It was fun, but hard to advance and it got kind annoying getting 0wnz0r3d constantly.

TDM and zombie man myself. Not sure if Im getting BF3 or MW3 though, as MW3 is not impressing me all that much. We will see though, Ive never actually played a BF game. I will say this though, IW is much better than Treyarch at making games.

Well I really liked both Black Ops and WaW. Hated MW2 though, I like the aspects of the games that help the good players not the noobs (like noob-toobing, camping w commando etc) which pretty much ruined the game for me. I am excited for MW3 though specifically about the new perk system. Point gaurd allows you to add a kill toward your killstreak after every 2 assists or something like that, also I think they're taking out Last Stand/Second Chance which is a huge plus. I play zombies too just got the new moon map and did the big Easter Egg for it, it's a lot of fun but it's the only extra map I have.

Oblivious, I am a cod4, cod1, mohaa, css player. I have played black ops and mw2. I use a similar strategy when playing pubs. PC only player. I used a permanent marker on my screen for a cross hair to no scope with snipers, works probably 49% of the time lol

Perks I use (cod series): uav jammer, dead silence.
Guns: all snipers, saw (I always use steady aim and a grip, my one exception), semi auto assault rifles, shotgun, smg (mp5 or ak74)

I have a lot of experience in tdm ladders within mohaa though, I must say that strategy doesn't fly in a match since its more of a defensive game.

I play tdm mostly on COD4 on PC. My friends have black ops on 360 so I sometimes play there but I dislike the balanced nature. Got a pretty good ratio about 1.7.

Looking forward to Battlefield 3 more than the next CoD honestly.

+1 for CoD4 and BF3

Black Ops is mind-numbing, just running and gunning, with no variation or depth to gameplay. Zombies is okay though (Ascension ftw).

I like to quickscope for fun on Cod4. All I did in Mw2 was use the ump45 silenced and dropshot. I'll probably get BF3 instead of MW3.

 

[ObliviousGenius]

I've never had the patience to learn how to quickscope in COD4 so I never snipe at all. I've played BF2 and I liked it, not as much as COD though. I'm a pretty versatile player besides sniping. I can have big games using nothing but a shotgun but I mainly stick to assault rifles. In Black Ops I use the G11, Famas of course, and the Galil (Gold for all). In COD4 I use the M4, M16, and sometimes RPD (Red Camo for all) and my K/D is 1.79 right now but on the rise. MP40 only in WaW

 

[Mello]

My k/d in Black ops is around 2.35 if I remember correctly. I usually use the Galil/famas/ak47.
I haven't actually played any of the battlefields, but from what I've seen BF3 looks great.

Jesse if you ever want to play along side my guns in cod4 shoot me a PM or something, I have steam and xfire.

I haven't played the ones before BF:BC 1 & 2, but BF3 will definitely be different. I've noticed since BF:BC1 the games have gotten progressively more "fluid" and faster, like KZ3 or CoD: Black Ops. Plus there's prone which will change a lot of the gameplay.

Cod just frustrates me. I plan strategies for intelligent enemies, but the avertage cod player on xbox can hardly state a complete sentence. I'm done with cod my friends still like it tho, but I'm primarily a pc gamer their xbox gamers. Zombies is fun though I got to round 44 on ascension.

LOL, It truly amazes me how many idiots are on xbox live. You probably already know the completely illogical strategies they use IE: camping in a corner and waiting till someone walks by, waiting back on an enemy while prone instead charging on him, ALWAYS going to the high window despite our knowledge that they're gonna go up there etc. I spend most of time while dead on HCS&D yelling at the other retard players for their COMPLETE incompetence, just common sense type stuff.

 

[Awaken]

As much as I hate noobtubes, it is necessary in COD. Ever been in a lobby where everyone has ghost pro and camps in a corner? It is fucking retarded. Nova gas helps A LOT. I hope it is in the new MW. It was my anti-camper solution in Black ops that did not require a noobtube. I just hope that sniping is more viable in MW than it was in Black ops where they basically made snipers obsolete. I dont care about quickscoping, I just want a 1 shot kill rewarded to me for picking the bolt action sniper rifle. I find that the M16 silenced beats snipers all day in Black Ops. I love that gun with decoy, it is sick.

 

[ObliviousGenius]

I'm ok with other people using the noob toob, but some people use it to the extreme, for example, spawning and switching to it immediately to kill someone 5 feet away with a clear line of sight. I do occasionally use the china lake depending on the talent of the lobby. I don't think it is worth it to lose my attachments for the noob toob. The china lake is a lot slower but i dont use my secondary weapon except to shoot down cobras hueys and hines if im not using ghost pro. Sniping is non-existent especially compared to COD4 where I couldn't take two steps without getting sniped on bog.

 

[Jesse]

It's balanced though. Sure it could kill person without aiming but then that person has no bullets and has to wait to reload. It also can't hit people close range. Stop complaining.

Oh I don't complain about it I just kick their butts. I just don't understand the illogical use of it in situations where it isn't needed.

Anyone playing the BF3 Beta?It is an open beta, so anyone with a PS3 or XBOX can dload it now. Been tearing it up on there. Just went 14-1 with my RPK.

Never noticed this, haha:

My k/d in Black Ops is 2.37 now, I think.

Ghost Recon: Future Soldier looks interesting though.

Kinect. Lol.

What about Kinect?

Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 was excellent, it's too bad Modern Warfare received more popularity.

Yep. I'm pretty sure Robert Bowling resigned because of the direction Modern Warfare was heading in.

I'm interested in seeing what new IPs he might make.

I was thinking of a skateboarding first person shooter.

You get points for doing kickflips over dead soldiers.
