Oh Diceman, if you need help with the Co-op, metalgear2k2 and EnragedYogi are your men. I am two away from finishing it on hard but strawberry float me trying to do Drop 'em like liquid where the other person relies on me to say 1,2,3 shoot is very trying :(

Spent 2 hours on the Jets last night and unlocked IR Flares finally :lol: Still no kills but 3 planes disabled so another 50 points and I'll get heat seekers. Will do more this week.

I've tried 'drop em like liquid' and the bus bit is easy... I seem to always get spotted or detected on the way to the next hostage section! Haven't unlocked the last one! I'd like the achievement, but I'd rather just play online!

I have given up hope on the Bullseye achievement but I can't even complete it on hard.

EDIT: Can the Co-op be played on local co-op split screen?

Just worked my way through 2/3rds of the co-op campaign with my flatmate. It's good. It's a little short but the levels are challenging and varied and it's certainly a lot more fun than the singleplayer.

Hang your head in shame! Shotguns and frag rounds are simply awful and nigh on game breaking! I have experimented with them, but for the sake of the game I avoid them, unless I get abused by them.... Then it's a case of 'if you can't beat em, join em!'

I'm loving the L85 - an awesome weapon that's rather satisfying!

There is nothing wrong with using a USAS or any other shotgun with Frag rounds, there are more game breaking guns out there compared to a shotty with frags, the FAMAS for one.

I would say bring it on but my 371 Meter headshot was a total fluke.

Famas worse than the shotgun + frags?! No, simply no!

The famas is a big boost over most ARs, but only a small increase over others (F2000 and AEK), but it is the most powerful 'gun' in the game. However, to be sniped by a shotgun is all out wrong! Shotguns with acogs on them is nuts?!

I've got no problem losing a 1v1 up close, but the range on those things is insane, with minimal drop!

I, one of the worst shots in the game racked up 500 kills with a famas before I even knew it, the gun is a spray and headshot machine. It was getting silly for me when I sprayed it at a Havock and killed the pilot with a headshot. Of the 500 I have killed 138 have been sprayed headshots.

I would also say there is little drop when sniping with it as well, easily get a 200M snipe with the famas, same goes for the G3A3 as well.

Maybe frag rounds are different on you platform but on pc there is a noticeable drop on them and you do have to aim higher to get a body shot, however that isn't what they are for, you shoot the ground for the splash damage and suppression assist, you may kill 1 or 2 people but the suppression / damage to multiple targets is what frags are for.

Not necessarily. On maps like Metro, Seine Crossing etc I agree, however on the wide open spaces of Caspian Border or Gulf of Oman less so, as the maps are simply too massive to make them as dangerous. All my tubes are skill-tubes - if I know there are dudes hiding in a building, i'm not going to run in there like a noob and die. You get a friend to toss a grenade in one door, and tube the other door when they come running out 8-)

It sounds as though your experiences with shottie + frag rounds is less severe than mine, for whatever reason. It seems odd that there maybe platform differences for a fundamental weapon specs though?! Maybe you pick the 'right' servers?!

I agree the famas is overpowered, I just don't find myself as annoyed by it as I do the shottie/frag combo.

The problem is, without making all the weapons the same, I can understand the problems with balance! If they nerf the famas, people will just move onto the next OP weapon... Iterate.

I still see people complaining about stingers which pisses me off the most! The game encourages and demands teamwork. Keep the stingers as is, and force people to soflam/citv and javelin vehicles. Thus, rewarding team player. Knobs on a personal revenge mission to take down choppers require punishment. As for teams using 3/4 stingers simultaneously, :fp:

I think pc may have got a rebalance patch that wasn't as extensive on console. Most people only use the shottie on small maps such as grand bazaar, metro and seine crossing but use the Famas, F2k, AEK and all the carbines on the others. My personal preferance is with the PDW's, especially the PDW-R.

I think they really need to change the damage model for the scout and transport helies to get more damage (maybe 10 points more) than the attack chopper since that is supposed to be armoured to some degree in rl. but the way they nerfed it in the first patch because they listened to the moaners was stupid.

I love the FAMAS. As mentioned, it most definitely is a spray-and-pray machine, but the spray actually seems to listen to the praying most of the time.

I think the attack Helios are pretty good actually. They had a big boost last time out to increase damage against infantry and soft targets. I went 25 for not many on canals thanks to my little bird. We were marking enemy vehicles (including the z11-w) so that I was hitting them with my guided missiles.
Just had to avoid the first lock and fire!

I would hate it, but I'm not sure you should be able to repair them from the shotgun seats.
