The Holographic sight tightens the burst up just a touch from what I've seen. The M16 is quite nice with Stopping Power, as a well placed burst can drop someone instantly, and unlike the Famas, the delay is short enough to get a 2nd burst off just in case. My only qualm with the M16 is the iron sights can be a bit awkward at times.

Useful to know, thanks. I'm going to try and max it out, liking it so far so may continue with the Holographic after that.

The speed of the delay is why I'm getting on with this, as to why I didn't with the FAMAS.
 
Modern Warfare 2 is actually a good game. Too bad it was ruined by the bad community.

The weapons in this game are pretty balanced. I especially love the M4A1, SCAR-H, TAR-21, FAL, ACR, AK-47, UMP.45, Vector, P90 and AUG-HBAR. The F2000 seems like the shadow of the ARs. And some of the secondaries seems a bit too overpowered for secondary weapons, especially the shotguns (coughAA12cough).

The F2000 is one of my favorite weapons.

You and maybe 5 other people. It has so much recoil and such low damage at range that I really view it as more of a big SMG than an AR. The Silencer does tidy it up quite a bit though from what I recall.
 
In practical use it is a big SMG. I simply use it on smaller maps and burst fire at long ranges. I put the noob tube on it to slightly offset the recoil with the added benefit of being able to take people out that are out of F2K range if need be.

The gun really shines in close range fights where its high damage per second almost always insures a kill. Toss steady aim on it and you're good to go.

That's the one thing I really liked about this game. To me there was never really one gun that was so much better than the rest. Just about all the weapons can be used in a variety of situations and each one has its pros and cons. Unlike Black Ops where the simple formula to success is to simply use the Famas or AK74u.
 
Bull crap. The UMP45 is a far more over powered gun than anything else. It still makes the famas and AK74u look like a joke.

The AK74u has slightly better recoil from what I recall. But the UMP45 is pretty much the stupidest gun in the game, as I've discussed many, many times. Pretty sure it has better DPS than the SCAR as well.
 
I heard it got hacked again. Its just a rumor but it makes some sense as you'd think they would normally announce a planned outage a few days in advance. Right now they are saying its down for maintenance which is probably true as they want to make sure it doesn't just get hacked again right away.
 
Hack what? PSN, or just MW2? I guess I'll try to log on....

Edit: OK. No-go on my main account, or the Japanese account. :crazy:

The good news is that Sony has more than 70 million registered users for its PlayStation Network online service for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable. The bad news is that they’re all angry because Sony suffered an outage today.

Sony is still investigating what’s wrong, but it predicted the service would likely take a day or two to bring back up. The outage comes on the same day that Amazon’s cloud-based web services business went down, taking lots of Web 2.0 businesses down too. It shows another hazard of operating cloud-based services.

The PlayStation Network, or PSN, is Sony’s attempt to engage its video-game console and PlayStation Portable audience in a larger online entertainment network that includes online games, movies and TV shows, as well as Sony exclusives such as Qore, a digital magazine, and The Tester original TV show. It’s a strategic asset for the console maker as more of the-video game audience moves into the online world.

On its blog, Sony said, “While we are investigating the cause of the Network outage, we wanted to alert you that it may be a full day or two before we’re able to get the service completely back up and running. Thank you very much for your patience while we work to resolve this matter. Please stay tuned to this space for more details, and we’ll update you again as soon as we can.”

There are 948 games now available in the PlayStation Network store, as well as 4,000 pieces of add-on content for games. There are also 31,000 movies and TV shows available for download, not counting the content available on Netflix, Hulu, and sports content.

Just yesterday, Sony announced that it would launch its PlayStation Home service update for users who visit its gamer’s virtual world on the PlayStation Network. It’s not clear if that update was the cause of the crash.

Edit 3: Score! While it kept prompting me to sign in, I was able to force through Netflix. :lol:

I had heard that it was a general DNS issue. I hadn't looked much into it though.

PKA has been canceled tonight to. Now I've got nothing to do besides get drunk and play fallout.
 
Oh, well. I was gonna get on for some quickie, but I'm watching some Playoff ball from 7:30 anyway. Maybe we'll be able to get on tomorrow.

It's a good gun but with a low rate of fire and a fair bit of recoil I never found it to be that amazing. I'll have to give it another go sometime.
 
I was talking about the UMP45. Agree with you on the AK74u since I actually do have a class with that setup. :lol:
 
I just use the silencer. Never liked Rapid Fire on anything, but I've never tried it on UMP. I'm skeptical, but I think I'm gonna have to try that one out.
 
It hurts the long range shots. You have to know how to burst fire it on the larger maps. Its beast mode in close quarters though. The damage per second is crazy. I run it with scav and steady aim.
 
:lol:

I reserved Skyline from Redbox. I'm a sucker for tacky sci fi flicks. Tomorrow, Game 4 between the Blazers & the Mavs. My boss hooked me up with the suite tickets. :O
