The Call of Duty Thread

[FN Phat]

At heart, I'm a team player, which is why I don't really care for Deathmatch so much. I use the stinger missile with coldblooded and sleight of hand. The harrier is the easiest thing to kill. Choppers are harder. UAVs will often take on hit, but with sleight of hand, I'm firing again in split seconds. I've only shot down one AC-130, but someone else fired at it, then I did, then my third one hit it (no countermeasures).

I am also willing to die several times trying to take out the choppers. That separates me from campers who are worried about their stats. You'll notice on the games that if we're in a predicament of trying to defuse something, and getting nowhere, I'll often rush in, guns blazing to try and take someone out that explosives aren't working on. I always get killed, but if we get the W, I don't care about my personal stats.

I'm a team player, and my lag is so bad that trying to get a long kill streak is a waste of time. I also played COD:WAW on the Wii, so I'm still getting used to the PS3 controls, which I find clumsy compared to the Wii. I can't tell you how many times I've had the jump on someone, moved to shoot them, and the damned melee attack happens because I pushed a little too hard. This is never a problem with the Wii controls.

It's a shame that you don't play on the Xbox. We need your type on our team aka "The Bullet Sponge".

Not sure how many times you can change it. My current one is o.k. When I was trying to change my GT when I had to, all the funny ones I could come up with were already taken. I would like something more like the one I had before.

They charge you 400 points to change. I just changed mine, and I think that you can change it as much as you want, but you will pay.

I love your new name. It is perfect for you.

Thanks. I have considered having the Dude change my moniker to that here on CUF. One more nasty prank call at my house and I may have him do it.

Perhaps you should change your melee button from the thumbstick to "b". That's how most halo players prefer it, and you'll never have that accidental attack that leaves you screwed when you miss.

Great idea. I do this all the time, where I get excited and and accidentally throw a melee attack. Another bad habit is when I reload after a fresh kill, but the battle is still raging. I end up hamburger with a fresh clip in my hand.

I do this too often as well. I always try to wait a second to see if someone else is coming. No one comes so I reload, but then as soon as I do - DEAD.

Reloading after every kill has become a habit of mine, and one that I have to be careful with now and again. Lately, however, I'm estimating that only about 60-70 percent of my kills come from my primary and secondary weapons. Especially if I have Danger Close on a smaller map. So many people are getting pissed at me for claymores lately.

man, this whole time I thought danger close was the perk that let you see others' explosives, not extra explosive damage. I might have to try it now.

That is sitrep. Sitrep pro makes enemy footsteps louder, but probably doesn't do anything if the enemy has ninja-pro.

That reminds me, last night there was some debate over the pronunciation of your last name, Robin. I've always said it "FINE-dur-son," while the Utah boys all said, "FIN-dur-son."

So, which is it?

And the pro perk gives your air support greater power too, which is nice when you have a chopper gunner and people are hiding in buildings. All you have to do is get the bullets close.

Sweet. Definitely going to try this out tonight.

We played Mosh lkast night....I suck. I forget all the rules, am not a good team player during the games, don't know good stradegies, etc. We switched to TDM and instantly got rolled, rolled so bad that multiple players from our team left. Had only they waited....revenge was ours. And it was nice talking junk after that team made fun of us for all our players leaving.

[Coach McGuirk]

me and hot lunch got absolutely torched on Afghan last night. I swear they had to be cheating as there were always, and I mean always at least 2 things in the air the whole game. Constant pavelows, chopper gunners, AC-130's, Predators, Cobras. They were everywhere. Just incredible.

We stayed the whole game and were the only two left at the end. We quit.
