Tactical sprint is a wonderful way to get to the area you'll get killed in instantly as quickly as possible. I non-ironically love it.

HC Shoot the Ship has a kill count increase for TDM, up to 100 from 75. Not sure if it's the same for core or not.

EDIT: Also, unless I'm wrong, it seems that XP tokens stack with the 1hr happy hour XP bonus you get from regiments. I was also going the XP bonus while playing alone tonight. I always thought you had to be playing with at least one other regiment member....?

Tac sprinting with a pistol owns in shoothouse, so I can make a break for it and get three easy kills flanking the snipers that mount up on the half-wall every time.

I was changing them up to fit the maps that were coming up, but still trying to stay within that 3hk range. The spetznas barrel, comp, commando, & skeleton stock were nice.

The short barrel/merc grip/comp/no stock is cool but you really gotta get in people's faces

Two questions for the sage and wizened gentleman of the thread - what is the best assault rifle? used to like the Scar in MW2, it’d be nice if it was good but doesn’t seem like it.

What is best gun overall for scrubs like me? MP5?

MP5, MP7, M4 are what you're looking for.

Questions:
1. What shotgun doesn't suck?
2. What attachments do I need to put on said shotgun to make it not suck?

I keep getting one-shotted from across the map on Shipment by shotguns but the rounds from mine seem to have an effective range of roughly 10 feet so obviously I'm doing something wrong.

The R9-0 kicks absurd amounts of rear end. It’s nice to have a choke on it but it rules fresh out the box.

If you scope in your pellet spread magically tightens, and then they probably have range attachments.

They're all good in different ways.

First, all shotguns want to run the 5mW laser and stippled grip for better hipfire, ADS and sprint-out times.

The 870 is best with the second longest barrel (18") and no stock. Aim down sights just before firing and you'll get a very tight spread. ADSing with a shotgun cuts your spread in half.

The 725 is also run with no stock. Some people like running it with the competition barrel for the longest range possible, but the base range is so good that I actually prefer running it with the sawn-off for incredibly fast ADS times.

The R9-0 is a solid all-rounder with the ability to fire two rounds before pumping; it will usually kill people in 2-3 shots at decent ranges. Throw every range attachment you can onto it. Unfortunately, you can't remove the stock.

The Origin-12 is the gun you use on Shipment. Its base one-shot range is so microscopic that range attachments have no effect on it, so just throw drum mags, merc foregrip and no stock on, and then walk forward while furiously left-clicking.

If you add abandonment penalties to a casual playlist the playerbase that posts to Reddit will lose their poo poo (moreso).

burst is stupid if it just fires at the same rate without burst. the only good burst is the FR 5.56 imo

This is especially true in Hardcore mode. Add one Damage+ upgrade and pretty much any trigger pull means a kill no matter where you hit them. Burst mode owns.

Only downside is when you think you're about to get gold but have 80+ "shortly after reloading" kills to get because you're suddenly going so long between reloads.

I don’t think actual penalties are the answer, but at the very least I don’t think people should be getting any sort of XP for quit games. It’s not gonna stop people from quitting but losing 20 minutes of progression might give people pause before rage quitting. For those of us who rage quit infrequently or have to leave mid match for some other reason it would be barely noticeable. For the teams that just drop en masse the second they begin to lose, it’ll start to sting pretty quick.

I just think they need to do something because there is like a 50% chance the whole team is just going to leave mid match at this point.

I’m joking, but let me rephrase. Close to half of the time, if your team is doing well, most of the other team will quit early. I don’t think that’s an overestimation?

Mines 8.25:1. I've seen teams drop, but it's maybe one in five matches, and usually against sweats that decide to find a greener pasture.

The guy with an 8:1 Winrate, which puts him in the top 130 players in the world, only sees mass quits every 5 games or so.

I don't think you see big quits 50% of the time, but OK.

I CANNOT HANDLE BEING CALLED OUT ON MY DUMBASS OPINIONS ABOUT ANTI-VIRUS AND SECURITY. I REALLY LIKE TO THINK THAT I KNOW THINGS HERE

INSTEAD I AM GOING TO WHINE ABOUT IT IN OTHER THREADS SO MY OPINION CAN FEEL VALIDATED IN AN ECHO CHAMBER I LIKE

I see large team drops (as in 3+ people leave) probably every 3-4 games on average, my winrate is about 1.5 atm, I play HQ/Dom HC pretty exclusively.

To be frank this happens on my team and opposing team about equally.

Pretty much every time I have 1-2 people drop from my team because we're losing, we get replacements, end up coming back and either winning or coming really close.
