I think they made footsteps louder. Dead Silence + Awareness is actually really useful now.

Lower music volume to ~0.1, voice to ~0.5, keep SFX all the way up, and lower master volume to around 0.8, give or take a tenth or two. Then, set the preset to supercrunch. You should be able to hear footstep sounds much better, and still hear other sounds.
Now, pair this with Awareness, and it works very nicely.
Also, I do this and then use my Creative Sound Blaster Zx with it's scout mode to hear footsteps even better.

Drift0r seems to agree.

I don't even need to use supercrunch, they're already pretty damn loud for me. I have the preset on headphones and music all the way off.
Don't need no Gold anymore when I've got Bacon Camo.
Anyone know how to completely hide the hud in COD 4?
Yeah, close your eyes.

It's been awhile since I last played BO2, and I started playing again.
Did they increase the weight of Swarms in care packages? I either get or fall victim to a swarm at least once a day now.
Also, Elite refuses to display my new emblem, instead showcasing the default Private emblem. What the fuck?
The ISA bullies us using Peacekeepers and auto shotguns. End the spawn campriarcy.

I'm trying to get Diamond on Sniper Rifles right now, I've gotten the DSR-50 so close but I'm not sure about getting 10 bloodthirsties with it. What do you guys think would be a good way to go about doing that?

hijacked is where i get all my bloodthirsty challenges.
I hate Hijacked, but yes, it's a small map with narrow areas, making it easy to get kills.
[editline]16th March 2013[/editline]
HQ or Domination are decent gamemodes for it too; you can guess where the enemy is 90% of the time, or at least where they will be, whereas in TDM there are usually 5 campers and everyone else is behind you.
I can't find a game without the other team getting a vsat and lodestar. Please give us barebones.
I don't really like blops2, even though I should like it.
Nearly all of the guns are unique, (the shotguns are a great example) it has a great CaC system, but the little things in the game bother me so much, and the games BIGGEST problem by far is the lag compensation.
The kap40 recieved a nerf, which i guess was needed, but the nerf was way too drastic. -50% range on akimbos? I barely see anyone using the kap40 akimbos, and the only reason being is that its in a default class. I would have rather seen a range nerf (or damage) for the godforsaken b23rs. -75% range on FAL with select fire? Sure, people use the FAL plenty with select fire, but in comparison to the SMR's -15% range reduction, people will just end up using the SMR more and just neglect the FAL. Riot shields are complete garbage. If you actually try to use the shield and kill someone, anyone smart enough will just shoot your screen and make you virtually blind and just use that against you.
Oh and the killstreaks. I want to see one Call of duty without a ridiculous airstrike killstreak, or a form of a predator missile killstreak. I think most of them are completely fine, but the lodestar is just superior to all other high killstreaks. It's really challenging to notice the red area where the missiles are going to land, and if you do see it you're probably dead anyway from the insane speed of its missiles. Not to mention the damage and the radius.
More maybe later.

the akimbo kap-40 apparently ruined the competitive scene
i find it hard to enjoy MP, has science gone too far?
what do
(seriously)
Party Rock is now my favourite Camo, fuck Gold, fuck Diamond, Party Rock is where it's at for me.
Just had a game of hardpoint on Hijacked, got one bloodthirsty and got close to a second one, thanks for the suggestion guys.

What the fuck. The competitive CoD scene is a total joke anyway, I don't see why a secondary that is worse than an SMG in every way could be a problem.

"worse than an SMG in every way"
except for the part where it's the fastest killing automatic weapon in the game
[editline]16th March 2013[/editline]
even without akimbo, that is
Also apparently there is a limit on the max score you can get per game:

I wonder is someone managed to get 30k in a non-boosted game

So it has the highest damage at close range, about an average RoF if you take all the SMG's into account, maybe slightly higher, twice the hip spread, no headshot modifier, and 15 bullets in the clip. Even before the patch using the Kap-40 akimbos I'd say I lost against every other weapon unless I got the drop on somebody or just simply got lucky. Now the crosshairs are so far apart that I couldn't kill a guy sitting in the corner of the Hijacked kitchen when I entered through the closest door and aimed right at him. May have gotten one or two hitmarkers then I was dead.
The Kap 40's may be better on paper but your limited range, and not able to kill two people unless they are [i]really[/i] close to one another just makes them pretty shitty now, when they weren't the best in the first place.
[QUOTE=Zanpa;39935809]the akimbo kap-40 apparently ruined the competitive scene[/QUOTE]Which is where one should look for overpowered things, to be fair, since every advantage you can get is a possible advantage over your enemy.

They're a secondary weapon, do you realize that? They're not for competing against people at long range. They're for warding off any fucking body that gets close to you (1800 rpm + 3 hits to kill).
They're use in competition by AR users (M8A1 usually). They watch down a long sightline and kill everybody there. If you don't come from there you have to come close to them and they kap you.
Keep in mind that this was a problem in S&D which is the main competitive game mode.
What you're saying about killing a guy sitting in a corner when you enter is just the wrong way around. That guy is waiting for you with his kaps and you can't do anything to kill him then.

It's not better on paper, it's better in game.
