The MW2 Newbie Guide

[Yureina]

Pretty good guide. Thanks much for posting up that writeup. I may have to try some of this stuff if I can ever bring myself to try MW2 in multiplayer ever again.

If you have a fetish for Light machineguns, proning is pretty much a good idea in any map. You can get alot of cover from a patch of grass. Just keep reloacting yourself that's all. Also, if you're running about like a twat and see someone, go prone and shoot the person. This is a really annoying thing to do for the other player but it's safest way to kill them as they will suddenly have to aim downwards.

One huge newbie tip I can give? Find a group of people you like to play with. Seriously. I hate playing this game on my own, but found a group of people who play nothing but domination/ground war. When you have a team that you're playing with, it makes the game 10 times better, even when you do lose, because usually some hilarious things start happening when the SHTF during a loss.
