Haha oh but it's such a boring role :X
I just got prestige. I'm contemplating if I should do it or not. To start all over again, blah. I'll miss my ACR and Uzi.
Playing with randoms I actually do a lot better (i.e. K/D) but I don't win as many games.
Had one hell of a match the other day on Salvage.
I got the itch to snipe again. I started off the match on the house side, went up on the roof and got taken out almost instantly. Started out 0-4, and at that point I said "screw it, this isn't working."
Switched to the class I call PITA: Marathon, lightweight, commando with UMP and D.Eagle/tac knife.
Got 5 quick kills and called in my predator. The whole team just happened to be going after a care package by the door next to the concrete tubing, got at least 4 of them. Called in my harrier right where I dropped the pred, got the other 1-2 stragglers that I missed. The harrier strike got me an AC-130. The AC-130 just destroyed them, they kept spawning behind the house and I just kept on shooting.
Remember, I started out 0-4 and by the time the game ended I was 28-4. Was a very fun match for me.
True, but OMA Pro's reload is even faster than SoH on the RPD.
Sniping was terrible today, but I gave the FAL some good run today (and really the first of any really good usage) and the last game I just finished up went 42-11 on favela ground war domination. I was kinda surprised that I got that many kills albeit some were due to killstreaks. I'm really digging it now as it makes me realize how economical I should be with the automatic guns as it takes me like 2-3 bullets to kill someone instead of wasting half a clip to an entire clip.
make sure you use it with holographic sight, it makes it a two shot kill
Sights don't affect damage in any way.
FAL is the only weapon in the game where it does. Adding a holographic sight to the FAL increases the minimum damage by 5.
Evidence? Never seen this posted anywhere. Then again, attachments are pretty famous for being inconsistent.
It's posted quite a bit in this thread, as a matter of fact.
I'm starting to get fed up. 90% of my deaths are coming from GLs or RLs ... If I wanted to fucking play Quake, I'd sit on my PC!

The FAL is the strongest assault rifle with a damage range of 55-35, and as such, Stopping Power has a minimal effect. Shots will always kill in two hits at close and medium range, but three are required for a long range kill, regardless of the use of Stopping Power. However, with Stopping Power, the FAL is able to achieve one hit kills with a headshot. Moreover, like the UMP45, the FAL is one of the few non-sniper weapons in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 that can kill in a maximum of three shots regardless of range, perks, or attachments.
The Red Dot Sight is not properly aligned on the FAL, as shots land below and to the right of the dot. The Holographic Sight increases the FAL's minimum damage to 40, which, when using Stopping Power, gives two-hit-kills at all ranges. This includes Bling combinations such as a silencer or Grenade Launcher.
Heh, cool. I'm going to set up a FAL class with Holo and Stopping power.
Hm I suppose that's right but I use the launcher as secondary with LMGs as is the case with the rpd that I'm using now.
I thought the same thing , till i tried it and wasn't impressed at all. Why use the FAL when you can use the FAMAS or M16 and only shoot once , instead of having to shoot twice with the FAL.
Now when it comes to full auto guns, those help in close quarters with multiple sprays and are also more forgiving when it comes to accuracy and lag.
So theres a reason to use the burst weapons and the full auto, but theres no reason to use a FAL over the others (unless you have a modded controller)
