What's your weapon of choice in CoD4?


Recommended Posts

The sniper rifles are definately not all the same. 80% of the time, everything under the Barrett will not kill in 1 hit. About 25% of the time, the Barrett won't even kill with one shot. Every sniper under the R700 doesn't have any kick when firing and the R700 just doesn't kill people.

@Mystic: It's not all about trying to get as many kills as possible in every game, even if it is TDM. Play the map to control it and the rest is history, just use the right gun to control parts of the map.

@M16 users: Not to start an arguement about that gun but it's not that it's deadly in the right hands, but deadly in anyone's hands. There is no recoil and it already fires in bursts for you. And typically, it only takes one burst to kill someone. The gun does all the work that ,with other guns, you have to do by yourself.

Doesn't the Barrett kill in one shot unless the person has juggernaut?

I guess I see it as controlling the map through kills. Each kill I get allows my team to penetrate farther and farther while playing Domination. I'm not saying the game is all about kills, but you can't just be a spawn taker if you are going that route. I balance getting massive amounts of kills while allowing myself to be near spawns so they don't get taken. I agree in the fact that if you just went for kills (in Domination) your team would lose. I have been on teams like that with people like that, and of course we lost.

It's a pretty small chance that the Barrett won't kill in one shot. I've had it happen a buncha times, though.

Weird, my friend (here in town, gamerboy on Neowin) only complained about juggernaut users because then he wouldn't get a one shot, otherwise he never had a problem.

Maybe its just where you are aiming on the body? :p

M249 Saw

Red Dot Sight

Perk 1: Bandolier I think

Perk 2: Deep Impact

Perk 3: Stopping Power

#2 & 3 might be in the wrong order but thats what I always use. Fun and both serious. its a Great Stable for me.

If I want intense battle or just wnana have fun i go Sniper ftw.

M24

same perks.

other then that nothing else.

Waiting to get Golden or Non Golden Desert Eagle and then ill be perfectly happy.

Cheers.

Well, I know that when COD4 was in development, they said that the head of a player alone had 16 hitboxes and each one did a certain amount of damage when hit.

All I know is that the other snipers are really bad at killing with one shot and the Barrett gets the one shot kills most often.

Not the Skorpion!!! :D

I consider the Skorpion worse than the shotguns. It has about zero range and power. :p For those who are just starting, there are some challenges you don't even bother with...the Skorpion being one of them. It that I mean it will cost you more deaths and time getting kills for that when you could have been using your favorite gun to get 2x or 3x the amount of kills.

The Skorpion is actually quite powerful, and if you use it with the ironsights it's dead accurate as well. You definitely need the Bandolier perk if you want to stay sane, though :p

Headquarters.

For me - its Hardcore S&D

Highest Ive ever gotten is 975points in match, then theres match bonus and possible challenge points on top of that..

What do you usually end up with in Headquaters?

Headquarters for me as well.... S&D is great if you are good.. lol.. headquarters will get you points even if you are dead as long as your team get the capture point... now that I focus on kills more... i usually end up with 500 points in the round.. and if my team wins... about 400 bonus...
