The peacekeeper is an instagib rifle in hardcore mode. If I hit you, at all, you're dead. The only thing stopping me from dominating is my inability to pay attention to my surroundings in this game.

Hardcore in nearly every modern shooter is incredibly broken because the devs never take damage tables and range into account, they just lower your health and take away most or all of your HUD. Playing hardcore should never force someone to use guns a different way (or just abandon them completely in some cases), it should be how it presents itself: the same game you've been playing, only more difficult. [editline]31st January 2013[/editline] Here's an idea for a hardcore mode: No HUD except minimap, 1/2 pool ammo, no damage dropoff (except pistols, SMGs, and silenced guns), limited lives.

I use a sniper rifle to sneak around, I can take out people easily in one hit without taking too long to aim

Silenced sniper rifles are where it's at

Having HUD elements shown like the minimap could make sense on some players because they have helmets or those VR glasses on. But they should be changed around a bit so that for example when an enemy fires a loud weapon, it doesn't show the exact location, but a direction or area. That way the player has to figure out for themselves where they might be.

Finally got a good match (31-4). The SCAR-H is actually pretty good, I should use it more often. [video=youtube;-5a41zoxDjI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5a41zoxDjI[/video]

bo2 just updated, i think the pc patch might be out now

snipers in black ops 2 are really just counter snipers. I don't think I've ever gotten a kill as a sniper that wasn't against another sniper. That Kazakhstani border town level is the only one where sniping isn't useless, and even then you're still better off with an SMR with an acog

Is there any perks that would help find campers, i.e. those that are laying down on the ground waiting for you to run in? I don't necessarily have a problem with them, but I think it'd be neat if there was a perk that showed people who are sitting in an area for an extended period of time - i.e. the longer they stay one specific spot the more they become apparent on the radar. (without shooting) Those on the run wouldn't have this effect and would be treated normally.

Anybody managed to get the streaming feature to work on PC? Always appears offline no matter what I try, and no indication if it's the servers up or down or whatever. -EDIT- randomly working now.....

[QUOTE=Concur;39427910]It has the best penetration out of all the other AR's imo, and that's without FMJ on it.[/QUOTE] That's because its real counterpart shoots 7.62x51mm or .308. Same round that most US military snipers and designated marksmen use

I do like the new medals section in the combat record. I had no idea i had more than one quad feed, over 300 triple kills, and 1168 bankshots.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;39426466]the worst shit is when you die from dropping down from two feet since your health is halved (BF3, Red Orchestra) they should double weapon damage instead[/QUOTE] It's 30% of the original iirc, even worse

Guys, upcoming Double Weapon XP Starting from Feb 1 to Feb 4th for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 [url]http://www.charlieintel.com/2013/01/31/psa-black-ops-2-double-weapon-xp-weekend-from-feb-1-to-feb-4/[/url]

i just lost my persistent quick revive after having it for 2 months rip you will always be in my heart

I keep not playing once a day and losing my shite.

I wish I was good at the Axe, it looks like a lot of fun but I can't hit a target more than 20 meters away even if he's standing still.

Is 58 - 8 on hardcore kill confirmed good?

I spent almost all my time in hardcore free for all before that was removed, now I'm in hardcore team deathmatch constantly. I definitely prefer it over core playlists, the lower ttk makes the whole thing play way different

So uh.. this keeps happening when i load up theater mode: [img]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a61/MGRX/array_zps5d9b598a.jpg[/img] You trying to tell me something about Array Treyarc?

[QUOTE=Rob Markia;39432557]Is 58 - 8 on hardcore kill confirmed good?[/QUOTE] it depends if you actually tried for the tags or not, otherwise using them for bait and camping is just douchey

Anyone know how to use the public streaming feature? I've always wanted to stream gameplay from a console.
