[Multiplatform] Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. God Damn it russ, stop cheating.

Wow, its been nearly a month since anyone has posted in this thread. Was the CoD4 beta that uneventful (aside from Iwata's post)? Guess I didn't miss out on as much as I thought I did. Either way, up until this point it was only Xbox players who got the goods, but it appears CoD's loyal PC fanbase will get their fair share of CoD possibly this Thursday

In the meantime there is really nothing else to do other than to twiddle your thumbs and to start the countdown until the demo is released, then a month later, the full game. Which if the previous CoDs are anything to go by, is going to be full of epic and win.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I've noticed that the M14 simply packs more of a punch and for me it seems steadier while aiming down the sights. For that reason I prefer to field the m14 with a red dot scope.

Also some minor things I've noticed:

- Other than with snipers, headshots don't seem to actually one shot anymore, they seem to just deal critical damage, although if you do shoot someone in the head who already has damage its a one hit kill then. I know this because on numerous occasions I've shot someone in the back of the head, point blank, only to have them still be alive.

- ACOG scope: useless (except for a few select weapons, usualy SMGs). It adds zoom, but I've noticed it also adds movement to the weapon when aiming similar to snipers. But without the ability to hold your breath. ACOG scope unlocks for snipers is also retarded, worthless.

- Speaking of holding your breath, it seems now sniping is even harder, as holding your breath now doesn't seem to steady the scope as much or as fast as before.

- LMGs seem to be very powerful, decent accuracy, awesome penetration and excellent rate of fire. Its super large clip means that waiting for the gunner to run out of ammo is not really an option when you'll probably die while waiting. Sounds kind of overpowered.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I roll with the M14 as primary, but a lot of times you'll gun down several people only to have someone else come around the corner just as you're about to get caught reloading. This is where most people would die, but with Overkill, I just whip out my G36C or the P90 (I switch the two out depending on the map), and mow them down, go back to business. It really makes a big difference in stuff like Headquarters where being able to assure that EVERY ENEMY getting to the capture point gets mowed down. It only takes one person slipping by me in order to give them a capture.

QFT, Overkill is friggin awesome. Once I got that perk I instantly converted 4 of my custom slots to have it. I also run the G36/P90/MP44 and another slightly more accurate long range weapon, either the M14 or sometimes I'll pack the .50 cal sniper. I'll then either throw on a grenade launcher or take the extra grenades or Bandolier perk and then Steady Aim and I'm good to go.

Losing stopping power sucks but having the peace of mind knowing that you can handle pretty much any situation with just one kit is pretty awesome. Only reason I still even bother with the other kits is because the guns in those kits I want to complete the challenges for, oh that and my close combat centered kit for the likes of Vacant or Shipment.
