No not at all. But more often than not, the heart beat sensor allows me to ready myself. If I hear a beep then I'll be a lot more cautious than just running around trying to find guys. Lately I haven't been using it and been using other perks trying to unlock things for my guns.

My favorite gun right now is the TAR, seconded by the M4/Scar. I picked up someones M16 and that thing is awesome! But my favorite I think is the ACR, that gun is meant for me... too bad it takes such a high level to unlock

The ninja perk that I use makes it so I'm undetectable by heartbeat sensors
The pro aspect of it makes it so my footsteps are silent.

The cold-blooded that I use makes me undetectable by UAV, air support, thermal and sentry guns.
I can't wait to get pro because then there will no red-crosshair or name shown when enemys aim at me.

I have a couple of classes that I use.

2 sniper classes (yes I'm one of those jerk bags)

first class
barret .50 cal with thermal and silencer
machine pistol
Claymore
Obvious bling pro
Ninja pro
Cold blooded pro

now I picked up a dead guys m21 sniper rifle and fell in love. That gun has nooooo recoil. So I can lay down 2 or 3 shots if I got a couple of guys in the same area.

so the second class is

m21 silenced
machine pistol
Claymore
flash bangs
Scavenger pro (great perk)
Ninja pro
cold blooded pro

my other classes are

acr silenced
RPG's
Claymores
Scavenger pro
ninja pro
cold blooded

Acr with gernade launcher
RPG's
Claymores
flash
scavenger pro
Cold blooded
Ninja Pro.

last class

ACR with gernade launchers
Javilin ( got 4 kills with one shot last night)
Claymores
Flash
scavenger
Cold blooded
Ninja pro.

I always have ninja and cold blooded because I play hard core. I dont want to be seen at all.

I really love the m21 now, I can lay out a whole team quick and quiet with out reloading a clip. I think it comes with 60 rounds too.

I'm a level 70 but I have no plans on prestiging (sp)

I use 2 classes mainly. Both are basically the same except for the guns. The second one is mainly to take down enemy air supports.

1)Primary: F2000 with ACOG
Secondary: M014 Shotgun (I think that's what it is called)
Perk 1: Scavenger pro
Perk 2: Cold-blooded pro
Perk 3: Ninja Pro
Equipment: Semtex and Stun Grenades

2)Primary: Tar with Silencer
Secondary: Stingers
Perk 1: Scavenger pro
Perk 2: Cold-blooded pro
Perk 3: Ninja Pro
Equipment: Semtex and Stun Grenades

I should also say I'm just trying to get unlocks for all the weapons so may not be the best set up in terms of weapons but it gets the job done.

When you finish level 70, you can either stay at level 70, seeing as there is no level 71, or you can Prestige. When you Prestige you start from level 1 again, you keep all your titles, emblems, and stats (kills, death, accuracy, etc), but you lose your guns, challenges. There's 10 levels of Prestige, so basically going 1 to 70 10 times. Prestiging also gives you a new emblem for every level (the one next to your name, that you can't change).

I just unlocked the M16 and I'm loving it! I was using the scar-h (mostly) before and M16 has added about 3-5 kills for me just due to less recoil.

I also have been playing with a sub machine gun / shot gun class. I use Marathon, lightweight and ninja as perks. this works well for tight maps with a lot of corners. I just run around like an idiot and hope I have the faster trigger when I see someone.

I can't go without Stopping Power Pro on most of my kits. I use the ACR a lot, and without it, I can empty half a clip on a guy before he dies... and that's if he doesn't turn and get me first.

I've been playing a lot of Hardcore lately though, and I think I enjoy that more. I don't have to pigeon hole myself with a set number of perks that way, since it's a bit more realistic in terms of how many bullets somebody can survive :]

I think the ACR is a fairly weak gun so stopping power is a must for it. The SCAR is pretty strong and I don't think stopping power is needed for it... but extended mags are better.

I'm going to have to try out hardcore soon. My KD ratio has been amazing these last two nights... like top of the leaderboard with a high KD ratio. I don't know what has gotten into me, or maybe they just put me back with the newbs.

My favorite is..

Tar w/ grenade launcher (I love its iron sights)
-Scavenger Pro
-The one with explosive power
-Ninja Pro

-Claymores
-Flash

If the Tar isn't working for me I'll switch it up for the M4 or SCAR. But honestly, TAR is so goooood... until I unlock the ACR =)

Can't wait to unlock the ACR. Seems to be a fast shooting Assault rifle.
I'm working on the FAL still (I like playing to complete all the challenges)
At the expense of my k/d, I'm unlocking all the attachments for every gun

It's easy as hell to take out too, just create a class specifically for shooting down air support. Then when you hear something called in switch your class to it for when you die. After you die shoot the thing down then you're good to go.

As for the class, make something with the perk cold blooded and have a javelin as your secondary. Make your primary an assault rifle for after you take out the chopper.
That's actually a great tip. The choppers and harriers are almost starting to wreck the game for me. I still love it, but I imagine the day I stop playing that will be the reason. Not sure why I didn't think of the obvious (make a class of anti-aircraft guns and go ninja). That's my task for this evening. Unfortunately I'd have to give up stopping power, but I've heard that isn't overly useful for guns with a high rate of fire.

I like the heartbeat sensor personally. My only problem with it is that it takes up a lot of screen real-estate. I realize people throw the term "noob" around a lot. I don't know ... I guest that's supposed to be offensive. I've never really cared. If somebody doesn't like that I'm camping I guess they should just watch their kill cam and take me out. I'm in it for the kills, not my nerd cred.

Has anybody taken the plunge and gotten an iphone app? There's a 99 cent one that looks pretty thorough. I'm trying one of the super ugly free ones for now to see if it has enough info in it. I keep going to this site (http://www.themodernwarfare2.com/mw2/multiplayer/perks/) for info and while awesome, it's something I'd rather have in app form.

edit: free ones appear to be free for a reason. I'm going to try out MW2 :

I must be incredibly unlucky, because I'm having a hard time NOT playing a game where my Kill Streaks don't get shot down. That's a big reason why I started using the AC-130, as it's a lot harder to drop out of the sky, albeit at a shorter life span than the Chopper Gunner.

I actually came pretty close to getting my Tactical Nuke last week, until my Chopper Gunner got shot down with 2 kills to go. Then, as soon as I stood up from my hiding spot, I got my face blown off.

My favorite kit is:

ACR with either FMJ or Silencer, varying on the map I'm on.
AA-12
Semtex, Flash Grenades

Scavenger Pro
Stopping Power Pro
Ninja Pro

I also like using:

SCAR-H with Noob Tube
RPG
Claymore, Flash Grenades

Scavenger Pro
Danger Close Pro
Ninja Pro

The latter kit is a camper's delight. I just plant Claymore's at doorways, and then fire off my Noob Tube and RPGs at everything I see. It's so deliciously cheesy.

Apart from challenges, I don't see a point in a nuke. When I get a huge killstreak, I'd rather the game keep going and I keep getting kills and maybe increasing my highest streak.

If you do get a nuke, I'd save it towards the end of the game, so that you get the extra 6 or 9 kills but also play the game out. I just see it as such a waste when I see someone go 25-0, and then activate the nuke right away, and end the game when they were doing so good.

I played a game of Domination (btw whoever mentioned it on here THANK YOU) where somebody waited until our team was at 190 points to activate his nuke. We got to 198 before it blew. It was so well played I didn't even get angry.

Another thing is stay indoors and away from windows when aircraft are on the hunt. It drives me nuts when I watch my team running around outside getting destroyed when they should just get indoors and sit tight.

Oh, I absolutely agree with the sentiment about Nukes. They're such a gimmick. That being said, I want to be able to say I've done it, you know?

Plus, after spending any length of time in an XBL Lobby during Intermission, one quickly develops an deepened loathing for anyone under the age of 17, and thus, Nuking them feels like you're serving them a thick, meaty dish of humble pie.

I'd definitely wait until either team came close to winning the match, as well. Especially if my team is losing and it gives us an automatic win.

It's sad really ... online gaming has given us such a great opportunity for communication with other players within games, yet the first thing I tend to do in any room is mute everybody. People seem to use it as a podium to fire off as many racial slurs or F bombs as they can and it gets tiresome.

I don't know if it's my settings or TV but I can't hear what anyone is saying. It's kind of drowned in the background noise. I might hear the occasional scream but nothing unmanageable.

I think they need to make the harrier, precision strikes etc... much harder to get. Pretty much now every 3-4 seconds there's something going on that it's getting a bit ridiculous.

I also think that they should only give 1 grenade for the launcher and only 1 claymore per life and take out Scavenger. It's so incredibly cheap. I used to really love terminal, and still do but there are matches where people just place claymores and fire noob tubes the whole game.

I am terrible at domination (to be honest I'm not that good period), I find I get like 8 and 18 most times. I think the strategy would be to watch a spot and pick guys off but that seems kind of cheesy for a game like domination. Maybe I'm wrong?
