I find that the olympia lands somewhere in the area of "bad" and "fun" that I much need in this game after my constant famas whoring
Definitely. I started out hating it with a bleeding passion, but now I feel like it's the shotgun with the most character. It just feels so good. Wish it had some attachments so I could pimp it out a little.
Started out using the Olympia and sucked at it. Moved to the Steakhouse and then the SPAS thinking they were better, but now I'm back to the Olympia. I LOVE using it on Summit.
What's a reasonable distance that is a 1-shot kill with the Olympia? Or isn't there one?
I've tried it in combat training just to get a "feel" for it and it's like if you're not in dick-sucking range it won't even register a hit.

You pretty much summed it up. I'd say 5-10 feet for a 1 shot kill. It's only good in smaller maps like Summit and Nuketown. Pistol as secondary is a must when dealing with more than 1 enemy.

The olympia has the longest range of all the shotguns by far, you need to have the target centered to do any damage though.
Yeah, DS.. it's not 1/5 reduction, it's a reduction to 1/5 of what it was.
Which is why people started complaining: you could get shot and stay on target. But really, you're giving up warlord, or steady aim pro (pulls up gun faster after sprinting) or SoH pro (faster ADS).
The only tier that doesn't work for me is the 3rd tier because none of them stand out as much as ninja used to in MW2. Either I run hacker because I know people are camping, or I run marathon to make sure I get there first.
I don't even know...is that a triple knife kill? o_O
I agree about the PA vs PA not being a whole lot of fun, at least not for more then a game or two. Although running the SAM turret against a full group of PA will net you a lot of points. :winky:
Haha, no. Each person stabs another person, all within .25 seconds of eachother. It's ridiculous.
It means that you can shoot down helicopters faster. I have done most of the necessary damage to bring down a cobra with ~80 rounds from my RPK whilst running hardened pro. I think it was Mercy who fired the last couple shots to bring it down. Hypothetically, you could also shoot Spy Planes down with fewer shots, but they are so hard to hit that a rocket is much more effective.
Hardend Pro Damage to Streaks, does that mean you do more damage as you get a kill streak or do more damage to those with kill streaks?
I think it means you do more damage to a chopper, or simialr killstreak. Kinda pointless unless you're shooting at it with an LMG since all KS's go down with one LAW,RPG,Strella hit.

Well, yeah, they go down in one hit, but they all have a set of countermeasures that you've got to clear.
You disagree with that video showing the recoil difference?

Sev: Your gameplay is the most heavily yomi based around. Usually you look for characters that allow you to force guessing situations for big dmg. Even if the guess is mathematically nowhere near in your favor lol. You're happiest when you have either a 50/50, 33/33/33 or even a 75/25 situation to go crazy with. And you will take big risks to force those situations to come up.

Last nights game against Mercy and company was nails into a dick. Two bar ping!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also Hacker is Sitrep and I immediately went to the pro verson and was sad the device destroyed was so small.
I just found out that you can shoot down spy planes and not just choppers. I hadn't even noticed that you could see the planes before.
Is there any way to tell whether a plane is spy or counter-spy and what team it belongs to? So far I've just been shooting at them and seeing if the hit marker appears.

I'm pretty sure you can't see your own team's spy planes/counter spy planes.
In general, if it's friendly, the launcher won't make the beeping sound that signifies lock-on.

Jammer looks very different from CS plane though. CS just wipes your radar, Jammer fades it in and out depending on proximity.

SPs fly clockwise, CSPs fly counter-clockwise.
EDIT: You can not see friendly CSPs or SPs.
Only in the northern hemisphere; reverse south of the equator.

"Counter" Spy Planes fly "counter-clockwise"!?
Consider my mind blown. No really. It's nice to see some simple logic in a game once not some abstract or obtuse mechanic.

Fine, CSPs fly Right-to-left, and SPs vice versa. :P
Can we get that gun chart someone posted in the OP?
It was vera nice, verrrra nice indeed.
You mean it looks good enough, and is actually accurate, so it should be in the game instead of the bullshit lying stat bars they use that are completely wrong 100% of the time?

What is Hardened Pro?

Reduces the amount of sway you get when you get hit.
By 1/5.
Aka: pointless.
I wish; no way in hell this can be true; It does reduce it, but you still get bumped around a lot.
You pretty much summed it up. I'd say 5-10 feet for a 1 shot kill. It's only good in smaller maps like Summit and Nuketown. Pistol as secondary is a must when dealing with more than 1 enemy.

Well according to http://denkirson.xanga.com/735016527/black-ops/ it's reduced to 1/5th, I haven't actually tried it myself though so

Your bullets do more damage to enemy killstreaks.
Well, yeah, they go down in one hit, but they all have a set of countermeasures that you've got to clear.
EDIT: Except SP/CSP, obviously.
Also Hacker is Sitrep and I immediately went to the pro verson and was sad the device destroyed was so small.
Also, Caedere, did you watch the video Holi posted at all?

Not sure on a visual difference.
SPs fly clockwise, CSPs fly counter-clockwise.

Counter Spy Plane and "the enemy is disrupting our radar" are the same thing, right?
The quoted phrase might mean there's a jammer nearby, unless you moves really far from where you were initially and the radar is still down.

You don't get announcements about enemy equipment though, so to answer Sheep's question, yes.

I too, will be out of town for a few days and can already feel the Blops withdrawal.
Why would they need to be more useful? Hell, they're already amazing if you have Hacker.
It was vera nice, verrrra nice indeed.
