Hence this thread... I tend to trust the gaming community more than web critics on these things. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1962 Joined: 25 May 2009    | Go for the mosin nagant with stopping power and last stand. Use the iron sights. And perk one, i go with bandolier. If you canpull it off it works fantastically. I regularly get 40 kills a game with this setup. And i didnt see the point in buying the new maps. They dont add to the experience and zombies is overrated. |

Yeah I think learning thirteen maps will keep me occupied for now anyway! Really enjoying the mulitplayer, it feels less frantic and chaotic than COD4 but doedsn't have the same adrenalin rush for the most part. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1388 Joined: 12 May 2009    | STG-44 w/ scope is all you'll ever need. Never played CoD4, so can't help you there. Morne |

But I would buy Map Pack #2 for the fantastic Zombies mode. |
Muckraker  Posts: 256 Joined: 23 Aug 2008     | the gewher is an fing amazing auto rifle, no recoil and great range. The rifles all suck until the m1a1 but the bolt action is pwnage once you get down with it. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1247 Joined: 7 May 2009 | 1. Not really. There is a rifle section and the closest thing to an assult rifle is the STG-44. It does look like a modern assult rifle if that is what you are trying to achieve. It's fully auto too. Unlike what everyone is telling you, the Gewehr is NOT fully auto. It's semi-auto. 2. It depends on the map. I try not to use SMGs on the levels with the tanks, which are the largest levels. 3. STG-44/Kar98k with bandolier, stopping power, second chance, coaxial machine gun As for the map packs, I bought both only because CoD5 is really the only game I have aside from the Orange Box. The zombie maps are cool, but the multiplayer maps are hit or miss. They didn't include any maps with tanks though, thank god. |

Muckraker  Posts: 274 Joined: 16 Apr 2009    | STG-44 stopping power and whatever perks you want. Mosin-Nagant no scope, stopping power, steady aim. It's like a long range shotgun. |

Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 678 Joined: 16 Aug 2008 | I generally use an Arisaka with stopping power. It's a one-hit kill in most scenarios. In saying that, Call of Duty isn't all that good. At all. |

Uderstatement of the century. 1)Not many LMG's in W@W would feel the same as the assault from CoD 4, though in the rifle section you unlock the STG around rank 30, thats got a good rate of fire and pretty good range. |

I just finished the campaign for the first time, and I kid you not every single death bar one or two bansai charges was from grenades. It doesn't help that your utterly retarded teammates refuse to move out of your way when you're trying to run away from one... |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 4943 Joined: 12 Apr 2008 |
Yeah sorry that came across wrong. I meant the map packs are all different check em out and pick and choose. |

Will do! Am gonna try get used to the vanilla ones first though.
Yeah I've mostly been using the Gewher and I agree it's awesome, you can get kills from such long range. It seems to be much more effective with the iron sights than the scopes. 15 kill streak on my first night playing it woohoo! |

I don't know what difficulty you have your game set at, but I'm playing through veteran right now, and it has got to be the most frusterating thing I have experienced in a long time. I feel like pulling out my hair and I'm only 1/3 of the way through. Anytime you take cover, you can expect at least 3 grenades coming your way within a few seconds. |
Pulitzer Laureate  Posts: 902 Joined: 21 Jul 2008  | 1. Are there any SMGs or LMGs that would have a similar range and feel to the assault rifles from COD4? The MG42 reminds me of the SAW, but the prior has much more recoil and faster firing rate. Oh, and if the AK47 was unbalancing in CoD 4, the MP40 is crippling in CoD5 2. The maps seem to be very large, are the SMGs as useful as in COD4? 3. Simple one: What are your preferred weapons/classes/perks? 4: Map packs: worth getting? |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 902 Joined: 21 Jul 2008 | I once got killed solely with grenade impacts. How bad do I feel? |

I like your username, it made me smile! I was playing it on normal. There weren't excessive levels of grenades (hello COD4 veteran) but the indicator blended into to scenery and half the time I didn't know I was standing on top of one. Then any time I did it was too late as my stupid dumb fuck teammates had me backed into a corner and I couldn't get past them. Don't think I'll bother with verteran on this one, too many horror stories! Also regarding the AI, I don't think I've ever played a game where your squad ran straight into your line of fire as much as they do in this one! |

Nice, thanks. I agree too the Gewehr is great. Haven't used the MP40 much I don't like it's skinny wimpy look and sound (it is very powerful though) I enjoy using the BAR too, gets lots of close range kills. |

Just picked up this game guys and have a few questions for you about it.
My usual COD4 loadout is G36C with stopping power, bandolier & deep impact, or RPD with Grip, Stopping Power and Steady aim for smaller maps. Sometimes use MP5 or AK47.
As there is no Assault class and the first LMG you get is horrible and a bitch to use, I wanted to know:
1. Are there any SMGs or LMGs that would have a similar range and feel to the assault rifles from COD4?
2. The maps seem to be very large, are the SMGs as useful as in COD4?
3. Simple one: What are your preferred weapons/classes/perks?
Edit:
4: Map packs: worth getting?
