    Xbox Ahoy episode 16 on the M14. I was using almost the exact same load out with my FN FAL, except swapping Warlord for SoH. Cool.

    OH! Next week is the SPAS! Joy!

    My internet crapped out on me last night or I was going to prestige over the weekend. From what I did play though, I fell in love with the ak47 with ext mags. I just never knew that I could kill so many people, so quickly, and over such a long period of time.

    It is great on Crisis Dom when someone throws concussives into the B flag because I just open up fire and let it rip while weaving back and forth. Oh, the kills! I am going to try and render that specific one when the internet is back up.

    Also, I am totally bummed about hardline pro. It does what it is advertised to do, but I guess I just have such a strong preference for FJ and Ghost that it never really makes me want to use it as my Tier 1.

    Yeah, it's incredibly simple to use. After you've done your clip upload it to your file share, back out of the video and then select it from the theatre lobby then select render. It'll play you it again and then the rendering percentage will pop up. Once it's done you just wait for it to hit youtube. How long it takes to go up on youtube is up to the Cod Blops gods.

    It was so fucking amazing play around with the theatre mode some and then render that shit.


    Also so help me if I end up with one more game with a fucking horrible host where everyone has 2 bars except for the other team and then the fucker who was hosting starts talking shit when the game ends I'm going to start forcing host to my connection and making every single one of you shitheads feel my pain.

    Seriously I don't approve of the practice but if one of you with a super awesome connection decided to force host I'd be more then happy to go along with that plan just so everyone had a decent connection in the game. Hell I'd even be willing to share what I know (from Halo 3 days) on how to force host.

    Um, is double XP still on? Because I was busy moving since Friday morning and I'm only just getting cable connected in my new place in about 30 minutes. I will be so pissed if I missed out, I'm like 30k xp away from prestiging again and I really don't want to rely on any of my lifetime challenges that are coming up (20k each for a couple of them) to do it, I'd rather use those to blow through the early levels easily.

    You know what, sometimes this fucking game can really just go fuck itself in the ass. You may be asking yourself, "Gee, how many times can I get shot in the back while engaged with someone else?" The answer is a whole fuckload! Goddammit, when Blops decides it wants to ruin your morning, it really does a good job.

    I think the Xbox Ahoy! videos are some of the most well-produced videos out there on the internet. They have a slick style, but they're also jam-packed full of information about the real-world weapon and how it works in the game. Always glad to see a new one, and that he's doing the SPAS next week? YES.

    That ACOG makes it much harder to use the L96. I have had it where I haev missed 15+ shots in a row on a stationary subject because of the acog (it was a guy on the tower on array). He finally killed me and I switched to a variable zoom version of it and killed him in 1 shot. You can even fill up the scope with an enemy and miss the shot for no reason.

    The scope is flawed.

    SO how does one set up this utoob transfer thingamabober? I presume make a youtube account, then something, then profit.

    I wanted to post a clip of me killing the whole team on TDM in the first 20 seconds, plus 1. Would have got blackbird, but they got a hardline RC and blew me up.

    that's actually every sniper rifle in the game no matter what the scope. That "...killed him in 1 shot" part? Total fluke. You just happened to pick the right numbers in the treyarch made sniper rifles pants-on-head retarded lottery.

    more like create youtube account and figure out a bunch of linking shit with poor instructions on COD website. And make an account there. And make a gmail, because I'm living in the past.

    30 minutes later it is all figured out. No tubes till later though, stupid computer is broke, so will have to go home and upload a clip from there, then come back tommorow and post it here.

    The issue with sniper rifles are that they are easily the least precise weapons in the game. If they made them 100% accurate from scope-in, even leave the wobble with a non-acog scope, and keep it from auto-aiming until you've been scoped in for like a second. That is a sniper rifle I would actually enjoy using.

    As long as they don't get the benefit of the auto-aim and SoH pro, I don't really know if I have a problem with quickscopers. The part that made me want to punch a puppy was that it required zero aiming skill. Sure, getting one-shotted by a sniper at close range would still be infuriating, but if it'd make normal sniping a viable alternative, I don't think I'd mind too much.

    Having my emblem on the side of my gun is fantastic. I like looking down to see a man in a suit punching a unicorn. It just makes the game better.
    Also, I made a decent NOD emblem, but I can't buy the last two layers yet. And even then it won't quite be right. If only you could mask on layers to remove unneeded extras...

    Biggest BS quick-scope in MW2:

    On rundown, I'm running through the tall grass towards the skinny bridge, and I see some guy's head popping up and down behind to the wall on the left.

    "Oh, there's someone up on those boxes..." I think to myself "I'll just wait here a sec and put a bullet in his noggin next time he pops up"

    *boom* I'm dead, without ever seeing that jackass again. But I do see a bullet hole in the wall about 1 foot below the top...

    Seems he'd been popping up to quick-scope me and had FMJ so he could shoot point-blank through a cinderblock wall and still kill me.

    Welcome to the Treyarch school of game design.

    No it's better. Y'see, the point of Merc is that you don't want to play against parties. And where do you - a lone player - want to see parties the least? Objective modes.

    It really doesn't matter on TDM. If you're matched up against a team - even a full squad - you can still do fairly well 90% of the time. You can often win, but even if they're great the chance of getting a personal good K/D are still good enough. And if they really are sensational? There's dozens of other lobbies out there for your TDM goodness.

    See a 3+ party in an objective mode? Unless there's a big skill difference you will lose. Good luck finding another good lobby amongst the <10,000 players online in your preferred gametype.

    tl;dr: merc fixes parties when you're on your own. Parties aren't a problem in TDM; they're a problem in team-based modes.
