Gun Game!

Gun game is my favorite type of Wager Match and I am pretty good at it honestly. In case you don't know what gun game is, I will leave a quick video below. Gun Game features many types of guns including snipers,rpg, and even crossbows!

Drop Shot

I think the drop shot is the most useful type of shot in the game. It works so well at close quarters and throws the enemy off from distance. If you are not familiar with the drop shot, it is where you go prone by hitting the circle button (0) on your PS3. I don't know what it is on the xbox but i am sure its in the same spot as a ps3 controller. You go prone while shooting and it makes it extremely hard for enemies to follow you with their aim and take you down. Try it some time and once you get good, I promise it will be a great technique to add to your game!

Fails

As you know, some people aren't as skilled at Modern Warfare 2 or Black Ops as they would like to be. Because of these people, we have lots of fails to laugh about. Its pretty easy to fail and I am sure we have all had our moments. I will show you a video to hopefully give you a good laugh and show you how NOT to play Call of Duty.

Black Ops -Sub Machine Guns

I myself do not use many sub machine guns in Black Ops. The only gun I have used that is a Sub machine gun is the AK47u, this is a really popular gun amongst alot of gamers. I don't use this gun often so I don't know much about it. The other sub machine guns, I have never used include the skorpion, mac11, uzi, pm63, mpl, spectre, and kiparis. I wouldn't recommend using submachine guns in many game modes besides free-for-all or a game at a small map. My favorite guns are typically assault rifles.

Spawn Trapping

Spawn trapping is a very effective technique to use especially if the other team is weak. Spawn trapping is pretty much preventing the other team from getting out of there spawn. If you and your teammates are able to do this, you will most likely get loads of kills! The best game mode to spawn trap on is definitley Demolition. Demoliton is the best because the spawns don't change like they do in team death match and Headquarters. So give it a try and see how it works!

Cool Features In Black Ops

There are some cool features in Black Ops. My favorite of these is the RC-XD cars and how there are able to go through secret spots on some maps. RC-XD cars are explosive cars that can be controlled by the player and are a form of a killstreak. Some maps have small tunnels in walls or fences that can help you take a short cut through the map. I will post a video so you can see what I mean.

Emblems and Titles

As all of you know, there are many emblems and titles you can make or create in Black Ops. Some are funny, others are superheroes, and some are even the names of the gamer. I like the fact that you can customize your title and emblem in Black Ops and it is a very fun feature to mess with. My emblem right now is Mike Wazowski from the cartoon movie Monsters Inc. There are many videos on YouTube that show you a tutorial on how to make some emblems. For and example I will post a video of how to make Mike Wazowski your emblem. Before I had Mike Wazowski as my emblem, I had a Taco Bell emblem which looked really cool and before that I had a PokeBall. Feel free to give me some ideas on emblems. Enjoy the video below! :)

Killstreaks in Black Ops

In Black Ops there are many killstreaks to choose from. I tend to use a spy plane, napalm strike, and attack helicopter. However if I am in an easy lobby or i am playing good I use napalm strike, attack helicopter, and chopper gunner. I like using smaller killstreaks becuase they seem to help me raise me KD which is currently at 1.77. I haven't tried many killstreaks, I am just giving you a couple of suggestions. You can certainly give me some suggestions or comment on killstreak awards that you think are better for improving you KD. Thanks! and remeber to follow me.

Classes in Black Ops

In Black Ops, I still have not found the perfect class but I think I have come close. I would have to say that my Top 5 guns are all assault rifles and one submachine gun.
#1-Commando, This gun is so steady and accurate! I think it is the most popular gun and favorite amongst my friends and I. However, you unlock the Commando at level 45, so it takes a while to get it. But once you do, be sure to use it!
#2-Galil, this may be surprising to you but it is truely a good gun. It has steady aim, great accuracy from long range and close range and is pretty mobile. If you haven't tried it already give it a try!
#3-AK-47, The AK is a good assault rifle and fun to use. The AK doesn't have a big recoil like it did in MW2 so you should like it! It is also very effective and close range and pretty decent from long distances.
#4-AK47u- This is the submachine gun version of the AK and it is even more effective and close ranges so I tend to use it at smaller maps. Its long range shot isn't to bad either. Overall, a great gun to use that is probably on the top of some other lists.
#5-Famas- This gun is a better gun than in MW2 for sure. It is an assault rifle and is pretty decent. It is hard to hit targets far away but it is still a great gun. The best part about it is that it  is unlock at level 14 so you don't have to wait to long to get it.

Quickscoping On Demoliton

Quickscoping or sniping in any style on the Demoliton game mode in Modern Warfare 2 is probably my favorite. I like demolition because the spawns are the same meaning you respawn or come back to life in the same area. This also means that the enemies respawn in their "spawn area" so if you are able to snipe into their spawn area, you will mostly likely do pretty well! A tactital insertion is a great piece of equipment to use for this. A tatctical insertion allows you to choose where you will respawn next. I prefer using tactical insertions or claymores on my sniping class or sometimes even a throwing knife.

My evaluation

As I have previously stated, I prefer Modern Warfare 2 over Blacks Ops due to many reasons. Frist off, the quickscoping and sniping isn't as fun for me in Black Ops. Also, the killstreaks in Modern Warfare 2 are seemingly more effective and can be earned with help from prior killstreaks. In Black Ops, you have to get all killstreaks with only your gun. The guns in Modern Warfare 2 are also more appealing to me, my favorite being the ACR when I am not sniping with the Intervention. However, I do like the emblem and title set up of Black Ops alot more. Black Ops also has more features like "file sharing" and extra equipments. Leave your evaluation of the two games and remeber to follow!

Quickscope with WA2000?









Anybody out there quickscope with WA2000? It may not be common but it is definitely possible. It took me awhile to get a decent montage for this gun from YouTube so I hope you like it. Comment or tell me if you have a quickscoping montage, I would love to check it out.

Black Ops Quickscoping





Lets take a look at a quickscope montage from the lastest Call of Duty, Black Ops. Compare the quickscoping from Black Ops to Modern Warfare 2. It is pretty obvious that the styles of quickscoping differ betweeen the games. I prefer Modern Warfare 2 better but let me know what you think and enjoy the video above! :)

Black Ops Vs. Modern Warfare 2

I like Modern Warfare 2 much more than Black Ops for many reasons. For instance, YOU CAN ACTUALLY QUICKSCOPE ON MODERN WARFARE 2! The fact that you can barely quickscope on Black Ops makes a huge difference to me. Quickscoping is one of the coolest things you can do on Call of Duty and now it is completely different. Also I don't like the killstreaks and how they work as much in Black Ops. Let me know what game you like better and why!

Another Quickscope Montage. Enjoy :)

This video shows all different types of sniping so take notes!

Modern Warfare 2: Sniping

When sniping it is important to play coservatively and not rush too much. Finding a good spot can make it alot easier on you. It is important to have tactics that can help you play better. Camping is another thing though, camping is where you stay in the same spot all game just waiting for people to run by. Camping will not make you have more friends, as a matter of fact, you will probably get "Hate Mail." Getting killstreaks while sniping is extremely hard especially with the limited amount of ammo. Therefore, you have to make the most of each bullet.

What does FMJ really do?

The attachment FMJ (full metal jacket) is an attachment used when sniping. Most gamers prefer this attachment but what does it really do? FMJ is said to make your bullets more powerful and damaging through surfaces such as walls. However, watching some YouTube clips on it, FMJ only really works when you are shooting through a wall. Otherwise, it will take the same amount of bullets to kill someone with or without FMJ.

Example: No Scoping

Here is a great demostration of a no scope. However, don't expect to be getting kills like this alot!

Different Types of Sniping

There are three main types of sniping in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2.
-Hard Scoping
-Quick Scoping
-No Scoping
Hard scoping is when you aim entirely into the scope and quickscoping is where you barely look into your scope. No scoping is using NO scope to hit a target. This is a pretty simple concept. Probably the most difficult form of sniping is no scoping, but this a technique that not many gamers use. Many gamers are able to quickscope pretty well and hard scoping is pretty easy. Here, I will post a video on no scopes just so you get the idea!

Search and Destroy Quicksckoping

When playing search and destroy it is important to have technique as well as skill. Some players prefer to work with teammates when playing while others play individual. I would say that a team is probably more effective than playing individually. When sniping on search and destroy it is important to have your technique mastered because there is no respawn in search and destroy. You only get one life per found in search and destroy. Probably the most exciting part of search and destroy is the "Game Winning Kill". I will post a video so you can check it out.

Attachments

Hi everybody. Today I am going to talk about which attachments to use for your sniper rile. The two most popular are probably FMJ (full metal jacket) and extended magazines. FMJ is said to make your bullets more damaging through surfaces such as walls. Extended magazines don't give you more ammo but give you more bullets per magazine. Other attachments that people use include heart beat sensor, silencer, ACOG scope, thermal scope, and others. This attachments may be better for you but I would recommend FMJ or Extended Magazines for sure. Let me know what attachments you use!

Video For Quickscope Beginners

Here is a quick video to help you beginners out there get started with you quickscoping.

Advanced Shots and Skills

There are many techniques and skills you can master while quickscoping. On technique is the drag shot where you aim and then drag the scope across to hit your target. Another good skill to have for quickscoping is the quickdraw. For the quickdraw, it is best to set your back-up weapons to an akimbo handgun. A quickdraw occurs at close range when you miss your target with a sniper rifle, you quickly change to you backup gun to get the kill. This is a very important skill to have especially when you aren't aiming to well with your sniper. Probably the most advanced skill for quickscoping in Modern Warfare 2 is the no scope. A no scope is quite simply when you don't aim down the sight of your sniper rifle. However I believe the most challenging shot is the spin shot ( mostly 360 degrees) . During you rotation of the spin you have to find a way to aim at your target and get the kill. I will post a video so you can better understand this amazing type of quickscoping!

Hints on Quickscoping

I have a few hints and advice to give when it comes to quickscoping on Modern Warfare 2. First off, a great tip that many gamers do not know about is quite simple, turn your vibration off. This may not seem like it will do much but it makes a dramatic differences because it truthfully steadies your aim! Also the sensitivity needs to be customized to what fits you best, some gamers use high sensitivity (around 8-10) while others prefer to use lower sensitivity like 6 or lower. I prefer to use some where around 6 or 7. If your sensitivity is too low you will have trouble controlling your aim and hitting you desired target. If you sensitvity is too high, you will not be able to aim well unless you have practiced before. Tell me what sensitivity you use and if this helped you!

Perks and Equipment



The video posted above is a great example of qucikscoping. Although many of us, including me, aren't as talented as Salvarth (gamer from the video). The best perks to use for quickscoping is Sleight of Hand Pro. This perk allows faster reloads and quicker ADS (aim down sight). The faster ADS helps an emormous amount when it comes to sniping. The second perk that most people chooose is stopping power, this perk makes the bullets more damaging and effective. The third perk is completely up to you, most people would use steady aim but other gamers use ninja or commando. When it comes to equipment, I would say that the throwing knife or claymore is the most popular but as you can see in this video some gamers even use tactical insertion.

Modern Warfare 2. Intervention or Barret .50 Cal?

In Modern Warfare 2 there aren't very many options when it comes to quickscoping sniper rifles. Some guns such as the M21 Ebr or the Wa2000 are just not meant for quickscoping. Most of the time quickscopers use the Intervention sniper rifle. The other main option for a quickscoping sniper rifle is the Barrett .50 Cal. In my opion, the Intervention is more powerful and takes more talent to use rather than the Barrett .50 Cal. However, the Barrett .50 Cal takes less time in between shots and has more rounds per magazine. When it comes to accuracy, I believe that both are the same. It just depends on which gun your prefer personally. I prefer to use the Intervention mainly becuase I tend to experience greater accuracy and it is more challenging for quickscoping. Although when hardscoping at a large map such as Afghan,  using the Barrett .50 Cal may be more effective. When playing Search and Destroy, the majority of the gamers use the Intervention which helps my theory that most online players prefer to use the Intervention as their main sniper rifle. Tell me what you think and what sniper rifle you use in Modern Warfare 2!
