Modern Warfare 3

Shotguns are still outclassed even so.
You can totally still sprint-cancel reloading; just start the sprint as soon as the ammo indicators are all lit back up.
What they did do is put more of the reload time for the guns on the uncancelable beginning, so successful cancelling doesn't save as much time.
If you want to abuse this glitch, the AA12 and the Striker (preferably) work much better.
sniping is too easy in this game, half of the time people get shots is due to auto aim
type 95 is pretty bad, needs a good nerf on bullet damage. if you get a extended mags on a shotgun, assuming you have good aim, you will win most close quarter encounters. maps and spawns are bad, hopefully the dlc will include some maps like terminal from mw2 and summit from black ops.

I guess they brought back quickscoping because the fanboys wouldn't shut up about it, I tried it, and it just sucks all the fun out of sniping for me, because you lose the discipline needed to lay down and snipe quickly and effectively. :/ And I will agree that the FFA spawn points are fucking terrible, like I've probably said before.
So I decided to become a shotgun type of guy, because using shotguns, specifically pump/lever action, is the only way this game is fun for me.
Here is the class I have used in every single game, since rank 44 (I'm 76 now). I made all 5 of my classes this exact class for kicks, and because it is all I use.
Spas-12 w/ Extended mags and Damage prof.
Stinger
C4 and Flash
Extreme Conditioning Pro
Hardline Pro
Stalker Pro
Specialist
Assassin, blast shield, blind eye.
Death streak: Juiced
I play on 10 sensitivity, and I am a non-stop rusher. I play literally nothing but domination, and I usually end up with a K/D of 1 to 3.5. Not having a secondary to finish people off is rather annoying, but it just makes me work that much harder to master the spas. I usually pick up an enemy AR when my stinger is out, and my stinger always runs out. There is no joy greater to me then receiving hate messages from people on the enemy team because I shot down literally every single thing they put in the sky. I'll kill myself even if i'm on an all specialist streak just to take down enemy air support like the ac130, osprey, etc.
I wasn't much of an objective player in MW2, but now that i'm playing exclusively with my shotgun class and playing the objective as hard as I can while not giving a fuck about K/D, i'm finding MW3 to be one of my favorite COD games. Now if they had only removed fucking final stand, bane of my fucking existence. Putting two shots into someone from a decent distant, only to have them go down into last stand and kill me has caused me to send a controller to the grave already (I was shitfaced).

OMG you're my hero. I agree with everything and your play style is epic!
Except I go PM-9 > shotgun lol.
maybe there's a time limit?
I've had SnD games that were over 15 minutes saved, and this one couldn't have been more than 12, we won it 3-1. (4 x 2.5 = 10 minutes, + round killcams).
The first and last half of that statement kinda sounds like contradictory. Sniping quickly includes quickscoping when needed. And you can't lay down and start a sniper nest in this game. With these maps, it's just impossible.
In MW2, you'd spawn near your killer (in the direction he's walking to) once. You could use that for a revenge. If you fucked it up and got killed again, then they'd move you farther away. In this game, that's apparently thrown out. I just played FFA earlier today and kept killing this same guy every several seconds at least five times in a row. I know he was probably pissed the hell off from me, lol.
I heard they were fixing it soon though.
"Lemme duck down behind this wall and let this guy with one bar of connection waste his bullets and have to reload! Then I can get up and snipe him!" Nope, die half a second after going prone behind cover.
They should have just dropped snipers out of the game entirely, I wish they had the balls to do it. Regular sniping is almost impossible in 90% of the maps due to spawns and how closed in they are, and quickscoping, while popular, is a really good way to get you killed because you'll lose to an assault rifle/SMG/shotgun 70% of the time.
Yeah pretty much.
I'm surprised by how little I've seen pubbies using the MK14, it's absolutely amazing. I think the reason is either my teammates are killing them all (never play without a group of atleast 4) or they're cared of semi-auto guns.

has anyone tried the mk14 w/hybrid sights? I haven't unlocked it again yet, so I can't, otherwise i'd experiment myself...
oh and yeah, I've played my absolute WORST matches quickscoping, jussayin'.

You know the answer, lol. "For the challenge."
Admittedly, in FFA, I've had to use my Machine Pistol almost as much as the sniper. Shit happens so fast, you have to use automatic weapons to not get killed (oh yeah, and then the lag compensation makes them useless against any assault rifles).
you don't really need a scope if you run marksman tbh.
but anyway, this game is just not fucking enjoyable to me anymore. it's becoming very black ops-esque. everyone fucking runs assassin pro. (BAN ME PLEASE)s use their type95s and strikers. fucking lag compensation makes it borderline unplayable at times. im done without until they fix lag compensation at the very least.

the type 95 should gain damage at range and lose damage up close.
like a 30-35 damage would be brilliant to fix that nig.Currently, it kills in two bullets up close which is retarded for a gun that is supposed to be for long range engagements (where it kills in 5...?)
tl;dr: i hate getting 1 bursted in the leg by type 95s.

the thing about assassin is that they don't have quickdraw so they would lose most head to head gunfights if you don't suck :l
if they have blind eye (which has been almost non existent to me) they don't have scavenger or sleight of hand. another disadvantage. I love the perk balance.
also IW is fixing the extended mags glitch for shotguns apparently ;-;

Sometimes I think that the family of the president of CoD was brutally massacred by shotguns, which would explain the beastial hate that CoD has for shotguns.
In other news, this game sucks. The maps and lag compensation make it more of a chore than masochism. Wait, I said news. Oh well.
