Obviously, my primary gun was the P90, and I equipped it with FMJ rounds for ultimate destruction. Modern Warfare 2 and Black Ops didn’t have much differences when it came to run and gun tactics, though what really is there to change? Other than a few gun changes it was relatively the same, and I really did miss my beloved P90 to no extent. Next up, let’s look at my favorite “run and gun” class, my SMG class. Hardcore games were my favorite, especially Hardcore Search and Destroy, and this class was one of two all-time favorite classes. My equipment was, again, a Claymore and Stun Grenades, and the perks I used were Bling Pro, Cold-Blooded Pro, and Ninja Pro. I equipped it with the ACOG Scope and a Silencer for ultimate carnage with a stealthy approach from any range, and backed it up with the M1014 shotgun as my secondary, equipped with a Grip and a Silencer as well. This weapon has slightly less accuracy and damage then the WA2000, but had a high fire rate, and a better feel in my opinion.
You can hear everything when Ninja Pro is activated and you are wearing headphones, and knowing that your enemies cannot hear you is an added bonus!įor Hardcore matches, the M21 EBR was my sniping weapon of choice. On all of my classes, I used Ninja Pro, as it was amazing when coupled with my Turtle Beach – Ear Force X41s. My equipment was a Claymore and Stun Granades, and the perks I used were Slight of Hand Pro, Stopping Power Pro, and Ninja Pro. In Hardcore matches, it is a one-shot hit (usually) and in regular matches deals a great deal of damage with a very rapid firing rate. The Rafffica is a beast of a weapon that is the ultimate side arm. I coupled this with the M93 Raffica which had the FMJ attachment. A one-shot kill was almost guaranteed, and with the ACOG Scope, you could snipe on virtually any map with great precision and accuracy.
The intervention was the best Sniper Rifle for regular matches (more on Hardcore in a bit) and did some serious damage to anyone. First off, I ran with the Intervention with an ACOG Scope attached to it.
Maybe in Modern Warfare 3 Infinity Ward will fix sniping to possibly not make it so easy (and hopefully find a permanent fix for no-scoping…), but also fun to do for newcomers once again. Some of us were actually good at it, and Black Ops changed the tides of sniping, and in my opinion almost killed it entirely, though really made it more about skill rather then pointing and shooting. In Modern Warfare 2, everyone and their grandmother was a sniper. Clearly, Black Ops and MW2 were both very different from each other in their feel and play style, so let’s look at MW2 to see what really worked well, and what could potentially work well again in MW3 if we are to see much of the same weapons and perks. With Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 on it’s was in the coming months, it is important to brush up on the skills that Modern Warfare 2 gave us all and relearn the game play mechanics of this game, mecahnics that will (hopefully) be slightly different in some ways, but over all feel like the old MW2 once again. What exactly are the best classes, and could we see them again in MW3? While Black Ops quickly changed how players set-up their classes from Modern Warfare 2, MW3 could certainly bring something not too different to the table from that which was seen in MW2.
