Assault Rifles:
MTAR Overall good weapon, it's very well rounded. Going to be a very popular gun, especially with the new players to CoD.
Type 25 Really good gun, high fire rate, deadly when accurate.
SIG556 3 round burst, fire rate is slow but if you're on point, accurate and get the drop first, then it's a deadly deadly gun.
So far those are the only AR's I've fucked with. I like all these so far, no problems really. The recoil on them is low it seems, I've had no bad recoil so far.
SMGs:
MP7 So far it's the popular SMG, but everyone is just starting out so yeah. It's a decent SMG, not too powerful or weak.
I haven't played with many SMG's, AR's seem to dominate so far. I'm wanting to play w the PDW-57 and MSMC (SMGs), they seem to be the most powerful.
Scorestreaks:
Its weird adjusting to score streaks but I like it. One bomb plant = a UAV for me, so staying alive and racking up points is crucial.
Hunter Killer Drone: I liked this, got it in a care package. It's definitely going to be a popular score streak, it's just a drone you send out and it picks you up 25 points a kill. Useful in objective matches.
Care Package: Just like that it drops straight down and doesn't bounce at all and the crate looks dope.
Hellstorm Missile: Pred missle or a cluster bomb type of thing, I used it and it was good. Going to be a popular streak choice.
Lightning Strike: Basically mortar strike from BO, 3 spots to drop your bombs and it's good.
Death Machine: Heard it was powerful, dudes on my team kept getting it and said it was better than the one in BO. I haven't gotten it but they seemed to really like it.
DragonFire: A controlled drone, you fly it and shoot people. I've seen it many times, haven't used it yet. It's a high score streak 975 points, but it can be destroyed easily. (pistols can take it down)
The score streaks seem good so far, haven't seen anything up too high yet. The way you obtain the streaks is gonna make it hard to reach the higher ones, probably welcome a lot of camping.
Maps:
Carrier: Aboard the top of a ship, not a lot of cover to hide in. A lot of crates and planes on the ship, to hide around. Small map, makes good for fast paced shoot outs. I like this map, its close and easy.
Express: Train station, it's a good map as well. Medium map, so it makes for some good gun battles.
Meltdown: Nuclear power plant, already a online favorite. It's a medium map. It's not tight or close, unless you're enclosed in the nuclear building.
Plaza: Great map, tight and small. Fast paced, really fast.
Raid: Outside, medium map. Perfect for air strikes, not too much cover, well spread out.
Turbine: Pretty big map, feels like a maze but it's fun. A lot of shit to climb up on (plane, rocks, hills etc) Probably going to be a sniper camping paradise. Reminded me of Afghan but a lot better.
Still quite a few maps I haven't played, I DL'd Nuketown but I think I need to play TDM for that to pop up. I play Demo.
Overall, really really really great game. It's definitely a huge upgrade.
