    Scaffolding on highrise is fun...but its too difficult to get up there...

    climbing the ladder in the back of the base and hopping up to the light fixtures? now thats super easy and still an awesome spot to snipe the middle and right exits to the other base.

    The only person who has a good shot to kill you is...oddly enough, someone who climbed the scaffolding to get to the upper level of the base. But you also have a good shot to kill them. Its a fun game.

    Hey! that map doesn't show the crane! just because it's not that well known doesn't mean PAers shouldn't exploit that fact. should be just to the left of the elevator roof

    True, but firing the Javelin from the crane is practically guaranteed suicide.

    I just got this game. I also just got the last kill in TD with a throwing knife to someones nuts. Good times.

    Also the superior spot in highrise is halfway up the stairs to the helipad, go prone and you can shoot through the bottom layer under the helicopter and under the actual pad itself. Thank you level design team. Now if only I could stop getting flanked there.

    I don't mind snipers on Wasteland. I snipe on that map occasionally.

    However, everyone has to admit that map is way more fun without snipers.

    Yeah, whenever I use my "Fuck you I'm John Woo" build my K/D ratio cries a little bit.

    Thank god my Ghost Scar build is nigh-fucking-omnipotent.

    So Scar+Coldblooded+Ninja and? I have been meaining to try the Scar but I am close to the last unlock before the extended mag on the m4 and would rather grab the exp from that before moving on.

    I wish more maps were better suited to sniping. I know alot of people don't like to get sniped, but I like being one, and I really wanna unlock more crap on my weapon. So far I've just been using a SCAR for most maps, but when I can snipe (like on Wasteland), I love it. Seeing Headshot Longshot One hit one kill all pop up one after another just makes my brain reward centres light up.

    stupid question i am unable to find the answer to as of yet:

    After you finish the campaign on regular, it says 50% complete...

    does that mean you need to do it on the harder settings to get 75% and 100%?

    Or is there a super secret cow level i missed that accounts for 50% of the game?

    You're probably missing the achievements for Veteran play-throughs, and you're probably missing the intel items.

    Scar + Silencer
    Scavenger (the Scar doesn't have a lot of ammo)
    Coldblooded
    Ninja

    I often use the Stinger in this build too, although I've been thinking of switching it out for a Thumper and letting the rest of the team shoot down shit.

    Fuck the Thumper. The slight pause before firing has to be countered by standing still. Then you have to deal with the reload. I know you aren't going to switch to Sleight of Hand so don't use Thumper.

    Speaking of freaking out your opponents:

    SCATMAN: I fucking hate you. You owned me badly around C on Afghan last night killing me 3 times in a row, I FINALLY kill you and start to steal the point, when you respawn, toss a grenade from the bottom central area up the fucking cliff and have it land perfectly on the point, killing me and 2 other idiots as we try to take it.

    So very angry...

    Can I talk about my undying love for C4? Does anyone else love C4? Have you ever walked by a second floor window and not wanted to cook a grenade? Well I've got good news for you. Use C4. Want some help defending a capture point? Some more good news. Throw some C4 on it. The game tells you when someone is taking the cap point. BOOM!

    P.S. I love C4.

    All last night when we were playing I just couldn't find mans to kill and then I look at the scoreboard and scatman is sitting at 28-3 or some ridiculous number. For chrissakes, leave some for the rest of us. The One Man Army perk is not supposed to be literal. :wink:

    I think an option that automatically mutes everyone not in my party would be nice. Although if that function did exist, we never would have had such an enlightening conversation with the little dweeb. Ah matchmaking, why do I love you so?
