Battlefield 4/CoD Ghosts

[TheRobSJ]

Lol, I haven't played online before (except on my buddy's computer), and its nice to know I'm not the only one getting my ass kicked.

I haven't figured out how to change up the load outs so I am running the default ones, of which I am only worth a small bit if shit with the first one.

Just build up maybe 20-30 squad points and then go shopping. All of the one point perks you'll unlock anyway by the time you get to around rank 10, so don't bother buying those. Unless you're using a SMG, you're gonna want to buy quickdraw for sure. Put a foregrip on the gun to make it more manageable. Reduces perceived recoil buy about 25% or so. Muzzle brake or a silencer are very useful attachments depending on how you like to play. And the focus perk is pretty valuable too since if you get hit, you flinch so much that your aim gets knocked way the hell off.

Make just those little changes, and don't do dumb shit like sprint around corners, and your game will dramatically improve.

update: got my concealed cobra outfit, on my last 500 for the gillie suit. already seen 3 people with the gillie. dambbb

also: patch came out, but forums have no official patch notes(because activision licks nut). anyway, some minor operations challenges fixes and they added some counters. also, lobby mute in game feature is back.

So THAT'S the secret...

Any weapon recommendations? I like assault rifles mainly, not a run and gunner. Foregrip is awesome.

honybadger with a foregrip and a red dot. thats a good start. comes pre silenced.

if you want to be low key i sugges that setup and run stealth perks.

blind eye,incog,dead silnce,awareness.

i dont bother with off the grid. i'll hear them coming a mile away before they ever find me.

 

[TheRobSJ]

Off the grid is ok...if the other team is dumping SatComs all over the place. If that's the case, then run Wiretap as well and hack all those to make them work for you in addition to have any of your teammates work for you. If there's only one SatCom down on the map for them, you won't show up on radar unless the guy who put it down actually spots you. In order for it to do radar sweeps like the old UAV did, you need to have at least two down. And the more down, the quicker the refresh on the sweeps. Which is why Wiretap is a useful perk, since damn near everyone is still running the SatCom streak early on in the game here.

I think I found the first gun they're gonna nerf. The AK-12. Super high damage, minimal damage drop off even with a silencer, and damn near no recoil with a foregrip. Silenced with a foregrip....I've been seeing a lot of dudes running that setup. And why wouldn't they? Three hit kill even at medium ranges with the silencer. And those bullets are easy to keep on target because of the minimal recoil, so really all you need is just three. Which means it kills super fast. Try it out. It's amazing, for now.

Honey Badger is a good gun, but the damage just isn't there to win if you get in a head on gunfight. I'm thinking I'd rather waste the attachment spot and just put a silencer on the SA805 or the Remington. And of course the AK-12. But in hardcore, the Honey Badger is good (though a two kill at range) since you can do the foregrip and a sight. And it seems more people are at longer range in hardcore since people aren't running around as much.

 

[uclaktsai]

Is there a Barftron for BF4? I would like to join up.

Make one and shoot me an invite! haha

 

[angelsndevils]

Just bit the bullet and picked up ghost. What a clusterfuck!! It's going to take alot to learn these maps. There is so much detail that you can barely see some people even when they are close by. This game is a campers paradise. Lol

per this you can use semi auto and add damage and damage at range to all of the assault rifles. turn them into two shot kills. that should make the free silencer honey badger better.

I bought all 5 of the first squad members and equiped each of them with a different standard perk load out so I could try different stuff. I was starting to think it was a mistake as it is kinda slow to unlock things and I probably would have picked em differently. but last night I got them all up to level 10, and then the price of the 6th squad member dropped from 100 to 3.

Imma send you a friend request to try to get on the clan.

 

[TheRobSJ]

I assume one of you guys is Dead350z or something like that? I added you to my friends list but when I tried to invite you to BARFtron it says you don't have a Call of Duty account. So I guess you'll need to go to callofduty.com to do that. Or not. You don't have to be in the clan to play with us, the clan thing might give you some minor bonus like extra XP, squad points, and/or emblems. Which may not be hardly worth the hassle.

Ahhhh Drift0r. Between him and TMartn, I've learned quite a bit of the geekier aspects of the game.

That's a good deal with the semi auto mod. I wish I had one of those Scuf controllers with the short pull triggers so I could spam faster. Could always just use the MK14 (which is a fucking monster btw) which is pretty much a two hit kill gun too.

THIS...i fucking hate it ill stick with bo2

 

[jdhu]

I suck. I tried the AK12 last night, got crushed. I was using the FAD before that, got mostly crushed. I did well in BO2.

Foregrip would help, but jeez, I'm just so terrible. I bought one of the scopes (can't remember name now, I think it was the 2nd from the right), and it is...just OK. Two zooms, but nothing special. The holographic kind of sucks too.

That's me. Not sure what the deal with the account is. I will check it this evening. I'll try to catch up with you guys so you can get some easy kills.

With this game it's all about who can get the first shot on target. That hybrid scope you picked takes longer to aim down the sights. The best thing for anything but long range is just the simple red dot. It gets aimed in the fastest and has the clearest most unobstructed sight picture. The holographic has a neat damage rangefinder gimmick and it will ADS quickly, but the damage meter blocks the sight picture and can be distracting.

Ready Up and Quickdraw perks are a must if you're gonna run and gun. Maybe the Focus perk will give you a chance of staying on target if you flinch from getting hit first.

And the FAD is trash. Just a hit marker machine.

Thanks man for the insight, it always takes me a short while to get used to a new game, the weapons, etc.

I have heard that the marksman rifles are awesome, any thoughts? I notice that the SVU (my favorite sniper rifle from BO2) is in that category.

 

[MikeyRocks]

You're actually better off with a marksman or sniper rifle with this COD because of the larger maps. This isn't a run & gun COD, you'll end up getting killed and pissed off if you keep trying to run & gun (speaking from personal experience ). Personally I like using the MSBS, you can usually pick off your enemy with one burst in core game modes. Short range guns are practically worthless in this COD.

Well, good in a sense, since it seems like run/gun dominated BO2. I'm glad that for one, the SMGs are not overpowered.

 

[TheRobSJ]

I bought the M14 EBR. It has the highest damage and I think it's a two hit kill from damn near any distance and can one hit with a shot to the dome. I put the red dot and three burst on for shorter range maps like strikezone or leave the stock scope on and maybe go with muzzle brake and AP rounds for the long sight line maps. It's the gun I have probably the highest K/D with so far.

with some exception. DOM on whiteout, soverign and strikezone are made for SMG's. vector is a good choice.

all other maps, AR or sniper. love the L115 with chrome barrel and variable.

this has been a stablemate of IW for a long time. it was always my go to gun in their games. in this release(actually since BLOPS2) my trigger finger has been off with the big semi's since the anti spam trigger shit seems to be set just right to fuck up my trigger pulls.
