When you go to pick a MP type, go into Elite Playlists. They will come up.

I like Liberation, but Piazza is a striker fest.

Also, I usually always use a launcher as my secondary, but after finally using Akimbo FMGs I can see why everyone else is using them. They dish out ridiculous damage in close quarters. Those paired with an ACR is a nice combo.

Nope -- good to know. Thanks!

You sound like me. For me it's a thing that some guns are so overpowered, it's ridiculous. One bullet will literally kill me from certain guns, while i'm pumping a clip into someone. Insane.

Re: Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 (PS3, 360...)

I am looking to jump from the PC version to the xbox version. Do I need to worry about buying used, unlike the PC which is tied to a user account? Any other pros/cons in making the switch?

I did my first prestige a few days ago. The prestige shop will at least give me some incentive to keep leveling unlike MW2. Unlocking the ACR and PM made level 1 bearable.

Yeah I had 5 tokens for my first prestige. So I pretty much unlocked my entire main class. The only thing I have to wait for is silencers for my guns and the Kick prof for my G36. With double weapon XP it takes about 3 matches to unlock those things.

Does anyone know what the voice over says for the Special Air Service teams just as multiplayer missions start? It sounds like "laborious winds" to me, but that can't be right.

-3 points for not knowing that's Captain Prices' voice either......well, kinda kidding there cause I believe there is an American voice that says the same before starting a match as well.

Anyone still playing or want to play Spec Ops that can help me out? Either the survival mode or missions. All my buddies are pretty much multiplayer only and I want to mix in something else every once and awhile.
For 360.

I sent you a friend request. If I'm ever online, let me know as I'm down.

I ended up picking up an Elite membership for $39 from Best Buy using RZ certificates I had lying around. Two quick thoughts:

1. Liberation and Piazza are a blast.
2. Playing multiplayer off the Elite playlists is a significantly better experience. Not only are the players better to deal with, but I can go for hours without having to leave and join another match as people are there to actually play the game.

I wish there was a way to deselect the perks you don't want with the Specialist bonus because I'd get rid of Stalker in a heartbeat.

Are you talking about the Specialist Strike Package?

I think he means when you get the bonus and all perks get unlocked. He doesn't want Stalker unlocked even then.

The trailer is up for the new map, Overwatch. It's on top of an 8 story building, lots of glass, catwalks, etc... Looks like fun!

Sort of looks like the same map from MW2 on the high rise.

Re: Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 (PS3, 360...)

Tired of getting my ass handed to me on the old maps, so thinking about pulling the trigger on the map pack. Since these have been out for a few weeks now, for those who have played them, what are your thoughts? Worth checking out, or should I just stick with getting routinely pummeled in "Dome"?

I personally don't think having a new map will help. I average the same kill ratio pretty much everywhere.
