Almost, sort of, kind of considering buying the Variety Map Pack since it's 400 points this week. Could help me get my skills polished for MW2.

There's no Deep Impact anymore?

*great sadness*

But I guess this will free up one of my perk slots for something else. Because I pretty much always took Deep Impact due to loving shooting fools through walls so much.

It's the FMJ attachment.

Looks like a few perk/attachment combos can be really overpowered.

But then again every perk sounds overpowered to me so it balances out I guess. :lol

Guys, what happened to the noob tube? Still in? Or did IW come to their senses about one thing at least? :lol I haven't heard a word about it & haven't seen it in any videos either.

The one question that nobody has asked so far is do you think it's 75 percent likely or 100 percent likely that Live will crash or be completely unplayable for at least a few days after this is released.

I remember a while back on Christmas when Live got hammered by all the new 360 owners and was nigh functional for at least a week. I pray this does not happen again.

i'm getting pretty excited about all the different combinations I can now do with the varying perks, and attachments. Akimbo silenced glocks? Double tap extended mag mp5k? drool

Still don't know how Akimbo for SMGs is a good idea.

Well tbh, almost everything in this game seems to be kind of overpowered, so it might actually come together quite nicely in the end.

I'm assuming they nerfed the guns when using akimbo, probaby like 1.5 x damage, instead of having two actual guns.

Robert Bowling reports that at a recent retailer conference he demoed the game to an audience and they went nuts " . . . when I stumbled over Dual-wield Deagles. lol - Akimbo confirmed." In a post on the Modern Warfare 2's message board he emphasized to the community that this kind of support is limited to the single game only, saying, "Now to calm some initial fears of 'OMG! Overpowered'. Akimbo is limited and balanced, just like EVERYTHING in the game". Only sidearms will have Akimbo support and they will be harder to aim than holding just one pistol.

Have a fun! Enjoy!
Ideal combination for me:

Marathon Pro : Cold-Blooded Pro : Ninja Pro

I'm not sure how many attachment you can have at the same time, but I'll definitely go Assault Rifle silenced.

Yeah, I like stealth.
 
One thing I would have liked that does not appear to have been added is the ability to move quicker while crouched or prone.

I find it frustrating when I drop levels behind cover to avoid fire that I can only move at a snails pace thus making me vulnerable to a grenade while I take cover or unable to escape/reset very far from my last know position.

The lightweight perk as far as I can tell only makes you run quicker but it would have been nice if pressing sprint while crouched/prone would have made you scramble on your knees like we see poeple do in paintball. Double tapping sprint to dive forward into prone would have been a welcome addition instead of the awkward stopping and changing of levels.
