Combining Accessories

[JoeJGibbs]

Ok, so I love the P90 gun and I unlocked the ACOG? Scope and holographic scope?

The holographic one is crazy fast and comes up quick as hell.

I havent used the ACOG or whatever.

My question is this...

I have a class where I use the silencer. The silencer lessens my range. But the ACOG scope extends my range. So how does the game handle things like this? Is there any place you can see that actual rating of your gun, with multiple accesories combined?

The ACOG doesn't really extend the range of your weapon as it does the range you can see. It is by far my favorite, though a lot of people disagree. I would get rid of the silencer, especially if you are not playing on HC.

What good is the silencer when the person you killed knows where you are from the killcam? It just seems to make your bullets less effective.

ah the silencer...majority hates it but i love it

this most recent game ive played i killed someone in a room, and there was another guy in the room sniping out the window and he had no idea the guy behind him was just killed nor that i was in the room with him since i didnt make a sound...obviously i proceeded to headshot him from 2 feet away

basically too many people depend on the map for locating enemies...yeah it limits the bullets effectiveness but for me it doesnt matter since they dont know where i am so i can kill em regardless

as for the killcam...dont camp

I don't play anything by HC anymore, I like the fact that when you shoot someone they die instead of running through your bullets to stab you.

After you get used to it, it's hard to play the other mode again.

ugh tell me about it...we need team VG to play more HC, its more tactical and suspenseful than following the red dots

That's assuming I stay in one place afterwards.
When I kill someone I keep it movin'. I dont camp out for that reason. I stop look around sit for a little bit, then leave.

When the red dots show up, you can see every guy on the squad running towards them. Just watch your own team's movements.

Couldn't disagree more on the silencer. It keeps your shots off the HUD, which is huge. In COD4 it wasn't a big deal because there was a UAV up every 10 seconds. In this game you can go an entire game without a UAV being called in, thus keeping you off the radar. Killcam don't mean **** if you're moving. But people pretty much run to a place where there are red dots on the HUD. Silencer allows you to move into an area with multiple targets and not alarm several people once you make your first kill.

Silencer will also cut down the recoil on most weapons, namely the P90. P90 Cold Blooded (UAV JAmmer) and silencer was a common stealth class in COD4.

Also, don't put an ACOG on a p90. It's counter intuitive for a close range weapon

IF you have cold blooded you wont show up anyways, and if you are on HC you don't show up every time you fire either.

No. If you have cold blooded without a supressor you will show up every time you fire. Hence, on non HC it makes no sense to run cold blooded without a silencer.

On hard core it eliminates the sound of your gun -- obvioulsy -- which is important for search and TDM. It also eliminates your bullet trail/muzzle flash -- very important for search.

First of all. Never listen to the little bar graph things in the games. They are extreme estimations. I use this site if I really want to know the details.

Really interesting IMO.

This was my opinion as well. I learn a lot just by watching the team that I'm on. Whenever a shot is fired, all the green triangles run for it. Then some massive explosion takes evvvveryone out.

If you are honestly worried about getting killed because somebody sees your red dot when you fire then just play HC...I think the silencer is the lames acc in the game..JMO but Me...nor anybody I play with (lots of VG guys) has ever said...OO...someone just shot somebody near us...Let's get em! I think, if anything, people THINK that their red dot showing up is hurting them MUCH worse than it actually is...I mean, play ten rounds each way...I find it impossible that the silencer is getting you more kills and less deaths.
