Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

Anyone play them yet? if so, how are they and how do they work? Are the still jsut stuck with randomly being picked like the other maps or what?

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

I played a private room of free-for-all with three others just to scope them out. Creek is awesome, but should be sniper heaven. Too many points to snipe from, there's really no reason to carry anything else. It's huge. Chinatown is cramped. Buildings overlook every street, and most of them you have access to. Killhouse will be a blood bath. It's tiny. The other, I think it's called Broadcast, is an interesting one. There's two levels to the TV station inside, and you also have access to the area outside, with a couple buildings to snipe into the TV station from. However, choppers weren't firing into the buildings, so it's very easy to neutralize them on that map.

You like the maps Sully?

I wonder how it works in ranked matches? Because not everyone will have the maps...

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

I like them, but haven't spent much time with them.

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

I've been wanting to snipe more latley, maybe I will like Creek.

I never can choose between the sniper rifles. I don't know which one is best.

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

So I read they are only in certain game modes right now... hmm

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

Which game modes? I usually just play team deathmatch, so I don't want to spend $10 on maps that I'm not going to be able to play.

M41 sniper for me. It's fully manual, unlike some of the others, but it's the most accurate and most deadly, IMO.

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

Gamespot forums said team deathmatch and team objective.

Killhouse is Free For All only

The said all the modes will get the maps once more people buy them.

Time and time again it's the M40A3 by a landslide for me (they should have thought about making it unlocked instead of avail at the beginning. Mine is red-tiger stripped.

Now 2nd best is debateable, but As much as I love bolt-action riles more, In this game I'd take the trusty dragunov 2nd. It's got faster 'recoil-recovery'
That's the only real difference in the game between guns is the recoil action, and recovery. For example the Remmington 700 kicks upwards ALWAYS, but quite a bit - but you can recover quickly. I can't remember but The crappiest gun imo is the P21 (really just the scoped m14) it has very small kick, but in any direction and the recovery causes me to literally shoot circles around a target.
The barret ( omg omg lol) is middle for me, it's kick is fine, but the recovery is too slow for me. They all feel very different, but for me m40a3 is terrific, then the dragunov (even though i don't want it to be) I rack up the most kills with those. And never use the acog scope w/ those guns, it defeats the purpose.

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

Yeah, ACOG scope is a waste of an unlock for sniper rifles. They should have done something else.
