No, I think the ability to get 11 kills then get into a helicopter and spawn rape people is ruining the so-called "Call of Duty Experience."

I think the LAST thing that you should blame on ruining CoD is some little perk.

Only on Snipers. Its hard to give up Lightweight...REALLY HARD.
I thought there were numbers somewhere that showed lightweight really only shaves a few second off every minute or so of running?
As a person who is a runner/knifer I really haven't noticed much of a difference when I drop lightweight, the only time it really shows is that the knife commando dash doesn't work if you drop lightweight.
I personally go for a tactical knife with marathon, cold blood, and ninja and I've done just was well as I did with lightweight in there and ninja.

On topic: I still think assault rifles with no recoil ruin the COD experience more than anything else. Seriously snipers being out sniped is obscene. Nothing makes me rage more than seeing a guy with an assault rifle in a corner see a flash of my arm as I cut through a building across the map and with a single tap I'm dead.

Hmmmmm, is stopping power overpowered. No, Non-stopping power users have a damage multiplyer of 1. Stopping power users have a factor of 1.4. The damage scale is 35 if the damage is maxed. All shots go to the stomach with this scale. One recieves a damage bonus for an upper chest/headshot. Therefore, a gun like the ACR has something like 15-16 damage points (technically it is more) without stopping power, and 21-22 with stopping power. People start with a 100 hp. Therefore with the 15-16 it takes roughly 5-6 shots to bring someone down, with 21-22 it takes 4-5 bullets. So like stated before, Stopping Power usually takes away 1 bullet from the gun you are using. I'll repeat this, 1 bullet.

If you are complaining about stopping power, maybe you should become better at CoD. If this 1 bullet advantage makes you think Stopping Power is broken, I would say this isn't a game error. This is a user error, is it harsh? Sure. But if you're complaining because a perk causes them to kill you with 1 less bullet I have no sympathy for you. Maybe you shouldn't play. You should complain about Models Akimbo, something that truly was broken, I should know I used them.

To sum it up, complain about something that you can prove as broken. I can disprove your "stopping power is broken" with math. Sorry but you should find something else to complain about.

Yeah everyone uses it. There's no reason to complain about it though. If you don't like loosing to people who use Stopping Power while you are not using it than start using it or switch to Hardcore where the difference is negligible.

The thing that really annoys me: getting knifed by someone wielding akimbo guns, how does that make any sense. I've come to terms with the noobs using double shotguns but the idea that they can knife me while wielding them is absurd.

I just replace it as them bashing me across the head using the shotgun as clubs which is pretty much just as feasible and deadly. Even then there is a huge argument for pretty much every other gun in the game, a sniper rifle, the light machine guns etc. The only real gun I think you could pull out a knife quick enough and swipe some one would be the sub machine guns, machine pistols, and pistols. The other guns are just way too heavy/clunky to just toss to 1 hand, pull out a knife, and swipe.

Also, knife loadout. Why oh why does taking two bullets to the chest not slow someone down?

I've uninstalled the game 'cos it's bad.

And I can't agree more. Tell me, who on God's beautiful earth would have the idea to let maps like Skidrow and the sodding rooftop map have helicopters to be called in? WHY?! That's ALMOST as retarded as DUAL WIELDING FREAKING MUSKETS. AND SHOTGUNS. Nice balancing, Infinity Ward.
