Just use Assasin perk and UAV's are useless ...
No. Because not everyone else on my team will use assassin. While i might die less, i still want my team to win.
tim,
Have you tried putting an agoc on your sniper instead (use a differemt recticle imo as the regular agoc isnt very clear)it aims as quickly as quickscoping, its easier to see, and use close up, and you dont need to use quick draw, this frees up assassin. (and depending if you play td or w/e)I now have specialist on every class. as i get 2 kills and i get quick draw back. I have the sitrep pro. and 90% of the time im in games where no one uses deadsilence they all use stalker. and its awsome.
I just like normal scope
And I use sitrep all the time. Its funny how in MW2 i almost never used it, but in this one i use it all the time. No commando is good. You can still lunge, but not stupidly far.
as for shooting uavs im the only one i see using a stinger. and its awsome with the specialist perlk. as my 3rd and final perk is scavenger which comes on just as i run out of bullets on assult rifle, perfect timing I dont need to ever switch weapons. my other perk depens on class whether its stalker or steady aim or shiz. i shoot an enemy strafing run.(take out the 2nd and 4th heli's once they pass) and boom 5 perks ty. and you can level the perks that you have on when using specialist. i have stalker pro and scavanger pro having never had them on my actual class just as perks. and 8 kills where you get all the perks. you feel invincible. only bad thing is you only unlock the version of the perk you have. but thats kinda okay i think
final thing. if looking for the enmy uav id suggest if you dont see it on first take(they seem higher in this mw). aim in with the stinger and spin around. it makes the lock on beep even through buildings.bingo.
not to mention the stinger is strong. 3 shots takes down an ac130, 2 take down an osprey gunner, pavelow, reaper, overwatch or even an enemy support air drop (from the osprey) which is easy to do because it spends ages flying around. and 1 for everything else. and a direct hit (one that would have hit without lockon) can sometimes take them down in one. (except ac10) only disadvantage, its also the biggest and can be seen sticking out above you so dont try hding behind dumsters or walls, it just wont work
I had scavenger as third unlocked perk for the same reason. But i didnt know that the stinger locked on through buildings, thanks for the tip!
The thing is, im basically being forced to use stinger/assassin. I want my classes to vary my playstyle, not compensate for the support package which everyone uses. In MW2 it didnt really matter what everyone else was doing, UAVs were a fairly rare nuisance. I could play how i wanted to. I could run and gun with assault rifle or sniper, sprint around with a SMG, go full stealth, etc.
However, if i want to run around with a sniper, if i miss a close range quickscope, which is often, because im using a bolt action, i would instantly switch to pistol. However, now i have a stinger, so this habit only gets me killed.
