[QUOTE=halflife_123;39254056]Black Hat and Engineer are vital imo. I see people in games who don't use them and they die all the time. Black Hat has also gotten me loads of kills from hacking bettys or claymores which are next to campers. They never seem to hear the warning that their stuff has been hacked.[/QUOTE]
I don't know, using Tactical mask and not having the reaction times of a sloth makes me immune to most of what I could hack with black hats. (Claymores are an exception, but nobody uses them anyway...)
I tend to have more of a rushing playstyle though, so I don't want to waste the precious second aiming towards the stuff I would want to hack instead of where the enemy might be coming from.
Although I agree that Engineer + Scavenger + Black Hat makes for a really fun combination, it doesn't really work well if you're on the frontline. Now for a more slow play, with an AR and hanging around objectives or such, they are really useful.
An EMP just does the job better for some classes imo.

So yeah, basically I disagree with "black hat any class"
"black hat some classes", though, I can totally get behind.
[QUOTE=wauterboi;39231972]I've got myself into Call of Duty Black Ops 2 and it's the first time I've actually convinced myself to play online. (I just make sure to mute everyone because oh man the community is annoying - at least on consoles.)
The ONLY gripe that I have are the mines people leave around - it doesn't seem like a legitimate way to play and more of an excuse not to actually participate in gun-fights.[/QUOTE]
Let me tell you how amazing Engineer is. Ignore what I said before because what I said before was craziness.
Also, the class I had by the end of yesterday has an R870 MCS with a Long Barrel and a Millimeter Scanner (which is super-over kill since I'm never a really medium-range) and in the occasions that I need to shoot medium-range I use the MSMC. I've also got Lightweight, Fast Hands, Engineer, and Dexterity.
In other news, like I said I've never really gotten into Call of Duty until recently, and so I tried using the sniper yesterday and I've found it's hard to rack up enough kills to really win in Free-For-All. I got some pretty clean kills and I rarely ever died, but I got about 10 kills with the Sniper class. (a few of which with my shotgun since people tried coming after me upstairs)

I don't think you need Black Hat on all classes I suppose, but I think Engineer is still useful for avoiding stuff. I'm wary of hacking something I can still use Engineer to run past it and get the kill in before they hear it go off.
Well, I guess I signed up for Activision's forums about 5 years ago and didn't remember it, hence why I couldn't make a "new" profile. Also, thanks to whoever described how to share emblems, I wouldn't have figured it out without you (not without stretching it and hosting it on another site, at least).
My emblem;

I don't know how you guys feel about mostly action less videos, but I had to post this. A sweet dose of irony to one of the guys that I play with alot.

"Hmm, lets go have a game of domination!"
Join game in progress, we are being dominated, are down 150 points, they have a vsat, a swarm, and a VTOL up. Quit instantly. Why does this always seem to happen.
Has anyone ever played BLOPS on the ps3? I tried playing it but the game was diffuclt as shit to play controls wise.

I'm regularly playing Black Ops 2 on the PS3 and the only thing that bugs me is the fact that I have to jack up the sensitivity for when I aim down sight. At that point aiming from the hip is a bit too fast, but I think I do fine.
Considering buying again on PC because im far better with a mouse.
But intkeys and GMG are a miniscule amount under the steam price, and given that id need to wait for a key to be sent, it doesnt seem worth it :( Anyone know any other cheap reliable places?

I hope they add barebones. I hate score streaks.
[QUOTE=FullStreak12;39261881]I hope they add barebones. I hate score streaks.[/QUOTE]
I'd like a preset scorestreak gamemode. Where you get a carepackage every 5 kills. thatd be fun. Especially on ground war
YES
Finally got Cherry Blossom on my RPG because some fool decided to drive his Dragonfire inside a building on Plaza.
Only two left - Ronin and Art of War. Easy ones. Yaaaay.
[editline]17th January 2013[/editline]
And now I only need two more double kills with the RPG before gold.
Fuck yeah.

Well it's 40€ on Gamestop downloads
But nope, I can't really find any cheap alternatives. In the future you might also want to check gamingdragons, isthereanydeal.com and that cd-key site search engine I don't have bookmarked right now
I've learnt to keep the hellstorm missile any time i change score streaks, its so fun to watch someones hard work to get a VTOL just disappear from a single missile, now i need to find out if its possible to hit lonestars with them
though i'm mainly using hellstorm missile, stealth chopper, warthog
PC multiplayer is so empty (12 noon GMT anyway)

The PC population is fine. Just a shame that not many people play Search & Destroy.
Another new icon, since I'd just beaten Skyward Sword

Well not many people play most game modes. It's almost impossible to find a good lobby in Mercenary Moshpit, nobody plays League at all...
The only well populated game modes are TDM, Domination and sometimes Demolition. Oh and Chaos Moshpit of course.
Thinking about asking for one of those XIM things for my birthday.

On 360, i only really play ground war or hardpoint. Hate team deathmatch, without an objective its usually just campmatch
[QUOTE=Concur;39265749]Thinking about asking for one of those XIM things for my birthday.[/QUOTE]
I've thought about getting one of those too, mostly for halo though. XIM3 > XIMEdge I've heard.

cant seem to get XIM3 in england D:
[QUOTE=Skellyhell;39269418]On 360, i only really play ground war or hardpoint. Hate team deathmatch, without an objective its usually just campmatch[/QUOTE]
I find that with objective gamemodes, people just camp around the flag/capture point/bomb target etc, in deathmatch there is a bit less camping in my experience.
[QUOTE=Skellyhell;39269924]cant seem to get XIM3 in england D:[/QUOTE]
Can't get either of them in England, you have to order them from the US.
christ i just got a warthog care package on hijacked, the high end killstreaks are insanely overpowered on small maps.
Getting Executioner to gold is proving to be a difficult task...
[QUOTE=Hackintosh;39269737]XIM3 > XIMEdge I've heard.[/QUOTE]
XIM3 is only better because you can change settings on the fly. XIMEdge does pretty much the same thing but on your PC; it's like an economy version.
They both do the same thing as good as the other.
