Fuck the idea of weapons being noobish. It's just something people say when they get killed by people and don't want to face the fact they got shot in the face.
Well in most shooter games ive played(COD, MGS, TF2 for example)i think the sniper rifle can be quite a "non-nooby" gun depending on the situation, and it does take skill to get the perfect headshots but if you were to spawn camp in an online match with it then it would definetely be a nooby gun because barely any skill would be required. As for knives, they are too different from guns as weapons to call a nooby weapon but can take awhile to get used to.The Hitman said:I was thinking some sniper rifles and knifing in some games takes skill.
idk about that I tore shit up in resistance one online with an auger you just need to use it at the right time.Stegofreak said:The Auger in Resistance: Fall of Man. Sure it can shoot through walls but its rate of fire made it crap for 1-on-1 confrontation. Skilled players can still tear you apart with it though.
Pity they increased the rate of fire for Resistance 2; it's much easier to use.
True for the most part, except for situations with imbalances favoring one gun above them all.Alleged_Alec said:Fuck the idea of weapons being noobish. It's just something people say when they get killed by people and don't want to face the fact they got shot in the face.
Meh, in the games I've played, I found that these stronger weapons are either extremely rare and hard to get, or have very low ammo, so that kind of evens things out in my book.Keldon888 said:True for the most part, except for situations with imbalances favoring one gun above them all.Alleged_Alec said:Fuck the idea of weapons being noobish.

Things like the golden gun in goldeneye, or the awp in cs, or even the M16 to a lesser degree in CoD4. They are just better than the rest, and it removes a lot of the challenge to even use them.
Dude, I rule as a smoker. Killed all 4 in one 1 life by myself. Other 3 members on my team were retarded and waited at the end of the level for them. They never got thereAbedeus said:Smoker in L4D. I hate playing them, if there's no Tank or Boomer with me.
