Sit your ass down Steve.

Picking this up later today, I take it the easiest way to play with goons is joining a clan or is there a list of PSN names somewhere? If you want to add me PSN: RadValtar.

I got a special version of the Atlus 20mm in a supply drop and it's insane. 4 rounds, no reloading between rounds one hit kill machine.

What are the good game modes for xp grinding?

Pro-Noob-Tip: Put the support customization on the uav (costs 700 total but your deaths don't reset the counter - helps rake in points especially if you add the extra point assist module).

There's a SMG that is akimbo only also and they're pretty alright.

Wazzit: Jul 16, 2004; Who wants to play video games?

What's the general consensus for the best AR? I feel like the AK-12 is hit or miss for me, especially when I put a silencer and gently caress over the range. The BAL seems decent but doesn't have the accuracy that the AK-12 has.

AK-12 seems best in my hands at the moment. Of course, this is based on really small samples of usage across all the ARs. I don't love it, but I like it best so far.

The AK12 seems like the better naked gun (there's also an elite version that's way more accurate but disables any attachments at all) while the BAL is better once you put a foregrip on it.

I'm loving awful without Stock. Ever since MW3, I've always ran Stalker or Stock on every AR and LMG. So, Stock is something I must have. I've probably found Ex Mags the second most useful since I'm shooting at a lot of quickly moving targets and consequently missing a bunch, and because we've be playing Ground War. I typically run whatever thing allows you to have three attachments, and have switched between Suppressor, Quickdraw Handle, and Foregrip (or whatever those attachments are called in this game) for the third attachment.

I have no idea what triggers the bonus chests, but I got an extra mobility TAC-19 out of it so I'm happy. Not sure what the other variants are but unless I can get one that does even more damage, I'm fine with this one.

Might try to grind out Advanced Rifling, I'm not sure how much range it'll add but maybe it'll be enough to land me kills I don't necessarily deserve.

Pleads: Jun 9, 2005; pew pew pew

Mobility makes this game way more fun than previous CoDs. I found the Run and Gun pre-set loadout and went on a tear with it just jumping around like an rear end in a top hat.

The IMR can be pretty brutal too, if you like semi-auto assault rifles. Its a 4 round burst, and reminds me of the FAMAS from MW2. I use it with a suppressor, foregrip and the sight that makes the enemies go all red.
