ok... You people are confusing my understanding of stopping power now...
it just increases damage right? on any weapon...

Yeah it does, it just doesnt really affect the WA2000 (without silencer).
Hit to chest/neck/head = 1 hit kill, with or without stopping power, stopping power does not add enough damage to make the belly a 1 hit kill aswell (like it does with the barrett and the intervention).
Non 1 hit kill shots remain 2 hit kills, with or without stopping power.

Adding stopping power on the M21 adds the neck area for 1 hit kills.

[XMoshe]

Different part of the body has a different damage multiplier. Where the barett/inter has like (these are examples) 1.1x in the belly area where as the wa/ebr has 1.0x int hat area, so when you add stopping power it does just enough to 1hit for the barett/inter but it won't help on the wa/ebr. I'll see if I can vind the vid.

Bleh can't find it, but there was a vid on youtube with graphs and shit showing the dmg multipliers and they explained that stopping power is useless for the WA and EBR

OT:
Gosh i hate MW2 hosting xD
It keeps picking the damn worst host there are.
I keep getting dead on hits that do nothing with these hosts.

[rumpleKillskin]

Why did they have to ruin the Deagle :/ It was such an awesome gun in CoD4. Now it's just garbage.

[XMoshe]

I hate the being put back into the same game you just left for 4+ times in a row >.>

/Edit: btw, if you get a chopper from a care package/EAD and you call it in while someone elses chopper is in the air you will get the exp when it arrives like if you got it as your killstreak reward. o.o

um it's not ruined

[William-CL]

lol, The Turtle.. I seen that awhile back. I tried it with a Javelin lol with DC Pro. Pretty funny stuff.

[Nick Invaders]

Yeah I tried it a while ago. I had fun with it, but I barely got any kills.

[William-CL]

Fun doesn't take skills. As long as you can play to have fun and not care about your kdr, your pretty lucky. I say I don't care, but I find myself checking it often to make sure it doesn't drop

[Nick Invaders]

Well yeah obviously, but it get's annoying when you shoot a hail of bullets and don't kill anything. I don't really care about my overall kdr, but I always love seeing those 20+ kills and 10- deaths.

[poehalcho]

wth was that guy doing with his gun?
it kept jumping around...

although I've really gotta try this.

[Snazzi]

I honesly do not care about kdr. Even though mine might be low (0.88 or something), I know I'm good (In a non boasting way). If I felt like it, I could go over 25 kills, and like 12 deaths, maybe even with a sniper oO I just rarely use machine guns anymore. I like to think I'm a pretty decent quickscoper aswell lol.

Mate 1 vs 1'ed the best quickscoper in Australia, and he lost (of course) 9 - 20 lol. I wanna vs him aswell,but I'd doubt I'd do much better.

Had some pretty sweet kills in Search, and been quickscoping a lot in quickscoping lobbies with mates (Mostly public). But yeah, we fill up a public lobby, and then just quickscope lol. Its wierd .. oO I can go like 9 - 2 in a quickscoping lobby online, but when we do it in a private match, I usually do a lot worse. Anyone else snipe better online, than in private matches, and vice versa? Lol.

[XMoshe]

I do better often in private cuz everyone is quickscoping then.

[Snazzi]

I try to quickscope shots that I have too, otherwise I will hardscope. Idk why, but in private matches, I guess people that wouldn't normally beat me, do lol. Meh. Its still funnnn

Almost 1 v 6 clutched it today, on Wasteland with the Intervention. I killed 4 of em, and then got raped by a spas

[poehalcho]

I like wasteland <3
it's my favorite map. one of few where I get a positive KD ;D
A few days ago I was really owning : D
I got like 8 kills before dying with my 50 cal. I became mvp on that match I think .

my favorite spot is behind the walls near the broken down house and the car wrecks with the machine gun with lookout over the digups

[William-CL]

I do pretty good online. I got 12 WA Headshots in one round in overgrown today. Although they kept feeding em to me by getting on the Gat...

[XMoshe]

Barett quickscoping starting to get better, guess it was me and not the lag haha =p

[poehalcho]

I think shepherd just killed =/
Now I kind awish I could play the sniper mission right after that in 3D . The end was quite entertaining, and I like sniping

I guess the single player gets better over time =/.

[rumpleKillskin]

I had the most fun on this game I have ever had last night. A bunch of my old CoD4 mates and I got back together today and played SnD like the past. We were playing pretty seriously until I yelled out pistols only. From there on we went from pistols only, to Riotshield w/ throwing knife only, to AT4 only. Watching 6 guys use an AT4 is just hilarious when the other team has no idea how to fight back against us. Now I am obsessed with using the AT4 haha.

[XMoshe]

Mostly being a semi ass today, ak47 with noobtubes/javelin and scavenger/dc/ninja all pro xD Oh and I got my 2.5k kills with the barett.

[poehalcho]

I don't get why people call it a noobtube D:
it's damn hard to hit things with it >_<. Then Again, I always suck with the 'supposedly' overpowered weapons xD

[LillDev!l]

Usualy people who use it hardly aim for the person they're killing...
On medium range random shots practicly without aiming at all kill.

Played try hard a few matches today.
Won a domination with 200 - 29 xD and a few tdm's with pretty badass ratios.
Had a 27/3 game, but i could not call in my second chopper gunner coz some asswipe called in a normal heli =[
Silenced tar on a few close quarter maps, and Barrett 50 cal on rundown // quarry (i always kick ass on quarry).

[XMoshe]

You shouldn't be aiming for the person you want to hit with it, you aim for an area around it being the floor, a wall or even the ceiling. Since you don't have to be on target to kill with it it's called a noobtube I guess.

[poehalcho]

I do D:, but I miss anyway.

And just finished campaign...well that was... dissapointingly short. moreover, I have no idea what happened in it at all.
Intro mission > makarov shoots things and we get the blame > DC fail nuked > shepherd betrays? > kill shepherd > end. Makarov??

EDIT:
campaign says 72% complete?
does that mean I'm supposed to find all the intel or something?
or play on veteran?

[MrJoey]

Find all intel should do it. Don't think difficulty plays into the percentage.

[William-CL]

Find all intel should do it. Don't think difficulty plays into the percentage.

It does, You have a % for all Difficulties. But if you beat veteran, you get regular / hardened as well. That was my issue. I played through once on veteran and gave me 100%

[MrJoey]

Ah, it's been so long... I did it as a regular play through (on whatever easy is called... lol). Then did Veteran, and got Intel during both play throughs. I just remember that after my veteran was done, I was nearly 100%, and a couple intels finished it up.

This is pretty much why they call it noobtube - Because you don't need to actually aim it at the person you wanna kill to get the kill. I still think it takes a bit of skill to get some of the harder tubes.

[Castiel]

Is it just me or does the heartbeat sensor on the intervention affect the accuracy of the gun. The gun seems less heavier and mobile resulting in a more accurate gun without the attachment

[poehalcho]

^lol I doubt it , maybe you just getting better!

I just unlocked the WA2000, I love it :O
stopping power + silencer + wa2k = doom from affar. Im also trying to use the pistol as you guys suggested. I think it's indeed not too bad, but I gotta get used to it, hitting things is a bit harder.

Is there Anyway to unlock extra custom classes?
