P90 w/Rapid fire
Scavenger pro
stopping power
Steady aim

I even managed to get an elusive triple kill using that yesterday

I always like the TAR21 in games, so far I'm sticking with it.
TAR21
silencer
grenade launcher (I don't care if it's cheap, it's my equalizer for slower reflexes than everyone else)
AT4
Semtex
Smoke (I use smoke a lot since I play Domination almost exclusively now)

Perks:
Bling
Cold Blooded
Steady Aim (whatever it's called)


I'm used to iron sites now, the red dot makes no difference. The ACOG is practically useless on almost all maps. The silencer helps with accuracy it seems. I know once I get claymores I'll be using those, but I don't have them yet.

Claymores were my favorite slot 1 perk in 4, I wish they didn't replace my frags but I still love them.

Wow... I just started playing this game online via XBox Live. I'm getting addicted! I never played any of the COD's online, but did do a little BF2. Right now, I'm such a (40 year old) noob, that I'm continually getting my a$$ kicked by all the 12 year olds out there who have all the maps memorized. Please tell me my skills will get better! ha ha ha!!!!

Your skills will get better, but it takes time. When I started playing COD4 online I used to be the guy with 2 kills and 10 deaths. Now sometimes I do 3k-1d, or break even, or have bad days. But I never get 'owned' any more.

Unlocked the ACR over the weekend. Man this thing is awesome. I use it for all my setups now.

I usually have two custom assault kits, two custom spec opts type kits, and a custom sniper kit.

I call my custom spec opts type kits "Operative1" and "Operative2"

I think thus far my favorite sub machine gun is the vector. This is one of my heavily used kits:

-Vector w/ red dot sight and suppressor
-flash bangs
-knife
-bling perk
-move faster perk
-steady aim perk

I just unlocked one of my favorite assault rifles thus far. The FAL. I think I really take to it because its single shot semi-automatic. I really wish the other weapons like the M-4 had a fire select mode because I really like them too. But I more often than not like a single shot mode. So my "Assault2" kit which is also now one of my more heavily used kits is as follows:

-FAL w/ red dot sight and suppressor
-flashbangs
-tactical insertion
-bling perk
-move faster perk
-steady aim

My "Sniper" kit is now set up to use the M-4. I just recently unlocked the acog for this so that is why I switched my sniper rifle to this set up. I like the balance between zoom and situational awareness of the acog and the increased rounds on target of the M-4. Plus it feels less clunky so that I can move around faster as a sniper. I really hate seeing people running and gunning with the sniper rifle and getting off crazy pot shots with it.

Yeah, I unlocked the ACR recently and now it's my favorite. I also like the M240 and the AUG.

I've been using SMG's here lately. I use the vector with rapid fire and red dot. I have bling, hardline, and I forgot what the third perk is.

Had a rough night online last night. Seemed to be getting shot from every perceivable direction. Do you guys ever notice that some nights you own the maps and other nights it's the opposite. Kind of like a craps table.

I had a very rough night last night. Late in the evening I ended up in match where half the guys were 30+ PRESTIGE!!! I was owned. And they let me know about it. The first match I was 0-4 (got in real late, just the last couple of minutes). They ragged on me for "losing the match" for them. We only lost by 200 points so I could see their logic. The next match I was like 3-11, then something like 6-16. I was constantly getting shot from behind. It was very frustrating but I didn't quit. Eventually I was just about breaking even at 8-9 and 9-11. Not too bad.

Then I moved to another match with players more evenly matched and I was kicking butt. Only lost one match and I was overall leading scorer several times. So, you just never know.

As much as skill plays a factor, luck also plays a BIG factor in the game. I can't count how many times I'm shot by someone just as I turn away from a spot from which they emerge and walk right in front of them. On another map I was killed by a grenade. The killcam showed the guy blindly throwing a grenade over TWO buildings and the thing landed in my LAP as I'm crouched behind cover. I use Cold Blooded so I don't show on radar or the map. Talk about luck. Unbe-frickin-lievable.

Still, it's all good. I had fun, that's all that counts.
