MW3

As bill pointed out, it looks like we are picking up where we left off.  i had a couple good matches last night, we did lose a couple more than we are used to, but we're still learning the maps

battlefield makes a quality game, but cod is a beast.  i saw a lot of debates in game informer between the 2 companies making the games, i didnt see what gamestop was like on the day battlefield came out, but i cant imagine it was as ridiculous as yesterday.  the line at my gamestop went out into the parking lot.

i figured i would post the perks and the pro perks so that we could decide which ones are best


Perk Slot 1

Recon / Recon Pro


Every enemy that takes explosive damage is marked as a red arrow on the radar, which also shows the direction the enemy is facing.

Pro Ability: Same as above, but it's achieved by causing bullet damage to the enemy.

Sleight of Hand / Sleight of Hand Pro


Reload your weapons 50% faster than normal. Sleight of Hand is extremely useful with Light Machine Guns since they have long reload times.

Pro Ability: Pick up and swap weapons 50% faster than normal.

Blind Eye / Blind Eye Pro


Enemy air support and sentries can't detect you.

Pro Ability: Faster launcher lock-on + extra bullet damage vs. enemy air support. This makes Light Machine Guns extremely effective against enemy air support.

Extreme Conditioning / Extreme Conditioning Pro


Allows you to sprint 2x times longer. Press and hold the left analog stick on the Xbox 360 (LS) or PlayStation 3 (L3) to sprint.

Extreme Conditioning is useful for aggressive rush tactics.

Pro Ability: Climb obstacles faster.

Scavenger / Scavenger Pro


Replenishes your ammunition when you walk over Scavenger bags that are dropped by players when they die. Grenade launcher ammo can only be replenished if the player that dropped the Scavenger bag had the same ammo.

Pro Ability: Extra starting magazines.
Perk Slot 2

Quickdraw / Quickdraw Pro


Allows you to aim down the sight 50% faster than normal. Quickdraw is ideal for quick-scoping with Sniper Rifles.

Pro Ability: Allows you to recover from equipment and grenade usage faster.

Blast Shield / Blast Shield Pro


Greatly reduces explosive damage.

Pro Ability: Makes you immune to Stun and Flash Grenades.

Hardline / Hardline Pro


Reduces the amount of kills required for any killstreak by one. For example, the Care Package normally requires 4 kills, but with Hardline, you only need 3 kills.

Pro Ability: Two kill assists add one kill towards your next killstreak. Deathstreaks require one less death.

Assassin / Assassin Pro


Makes you undetectable by UAV, thermal scopes, Heartbeat Sensors and Portable Radars. You can still show up on the radar if you fire a weapon that doesn't have a silencer.

Assassin doesn't protect you from the Recon perk or the Recon Drone killstreak.

Pro Ability: Makes you immune to Counter-UAV and EMP. Enemies won't see a red crosshair or name when targeting you.

Overkill / Overkill Pro


Allows you to carry two primary weapons, but the second primary weapon can't be equipped with attachments.

Pro Ability: Your second primary weapon can now be equipped with attachments.
Perk Slot 3

Marksman / Marksman Pro


Allows you to identify enemies from farther away by showing their names at a greater distance.

Pro Ability: Allows you to hold your breath 2x times longer than normal when steadying a weapons scope.

Stalker / Stalker Pro


Faster movement while aiming down the sight.

Pro Ability: Delays enemy detection-triggered explosives, like Claymores and Bouncing Betties.

Sitrep / Sitrep Pro


Highlights enemy explosives and tactical equipment in red.

Pro Ability: Makes enemy footsteps louder and also cancels out Dead Silence.

Steady Aim / Steady Aim Pro


Increases hip-fire accuracy.

Pro Ability: Allows you to aim down the sight faster after sprinting.

Dead Silence / Dead Silence Pro


Makes you silent and also reduces the effect of the Recon perk.

Pro Ability: You don't take any damage from falling.

  1. after reading the pro perks i might switch up a big
    1st perk- i think the recon pro is actually decent. if anybody i flash shows up on the radar for the whole team, that might be worth having. sleight of hand is good, the pro add on is worthless. scavenger is always helpful.
    2nd perk - overkill and blast shield seem worthless, but the others seem great.
    3rd perk - steady aim, the pro perk is great, definitely putting this on.

  2. Assassin pro is really good too. Blast shield is great, it makes you immune to grenades, flashes and stuns. all the good stuff is in perk 2, as usual.

  3. Perk 1
    Blind Eye or Recon if Assassin is in Perk 2
    Perk 2
    Quickdraw
    Hardline
    Assassin
    Perk 3
    Stalker
    Steady Aim

    I love that they made some of them similar so that you could swap perks a bit and that they made ones that cancel out others.

    Blind eye pro is going to help me contribute to the team a lot.


    I think Battlefield is great and I wish someone had gotten it so we could have played the coop stuff.

    The single player had some glitches that got better with the patches from my second round of achievement hunting.

    The number of players is just incredible for MW3. The gameplay seems very different so far. bf3 has larger maps and it seems that strategy is always the difference in who wins.
    Not that we don't strategize in mw3, but it's usually just ambushing from a certain spot.
    I'd say you protect a building in mw3 where you would need to protect an entire section in bf3 and need to have a plan for armor, jets, and air support that can drop players right into your protected zone.

    I'm going to play mw3 because you guys are going to play it and because I've come to love the gameplay because of playing with you guys.

    Both are fun.

  5. Are there killstreaks in battlefield? I feel like that's what is great about COD.

  6. I equipped the P90 last night and went positive on the rest of my matches. Also had 21 kills in a match only using the sniper rifle. Can't explain that.
