I've been using a running class in Domination lately, just to mastery the Mini-Uzi. I've now switched back to a silenced P90 with Marathon Pro, Lightweight Pro and Commando Pro. M1014 as secondary which is surprisingly great at getting past riot shields. I sometimes switch out Commando for SitRep if I'm with a claymore-happy group, though most of the time Marathon + Lightweight makes claymores pretty worthless.

Most of the time in team deathmatch I use the TAR with Red Dot sight or M16 with Red Dot sight (depending on the size of the map, I'm no good with the M16 in close quarters) and M1014 secondary, usually using Marathon Pro or Sleight of Hand Pro, Stopping Power Pro and Ninja Pro.

My anti-air class is silenced MP5K and Stinger with Scavenger Pro, Cold-Blooded Pro and Sitrep.

I also have two sniping classes:
- WA2000 with Thermal, silenced Raffica secondary and Sleight of Hand Pro, Cold Blooded Pro and Steady Aim Pro. This is my standard sniping class for most large maps like Estate and Wasteland.
- M21 EBR with heartbeat sensor, silenced Raffica secondary, Marathon Pro, Stopping Power Pro and Steady Aim Pro. I pretty much only use this one on snow maps because Cold-Blooded just makes you stand out more against snow when the enemy is using thermal scopes.

My general strategy on any give map is my Sneaky Bastard set-up. WA2000 with silencer and FMJ, Sleight of Hand, Cold Blooded, and Ninja with a SPAS with foregrip for close quarters.

My setup is pretty much always Marathon, Stopping Power, Ninja

Marathon because I like to flank and get places quick, plus I hate being caught out while climbing so Pro counters that. Plus I don't find myself needing extra ammo from scavenger or two attachments (unless trying to speed through challenges)

Stopping power needs no explanation

Ninja because of flanking habits and the fact I'm always very aware of footsteps. It also makes marathon alot better since sprinting normally makes you sound like an elephant.

And weapon wise generally something pretty all round and silenced - TAR-21, M4A1, Vector, P90

Secondary tends to be AA-12 since I find Spas-12 hard to use with a slower connection and only other shotgun I like is the Striker but since you get it too late it takes too long to get the good attachments (FMJ, extended mag)

Always use a spas 12. Its so fun to watch people sneaking round then just pwning them with a spas to the face. no need to even look down the sites.

If I'm playing seriously, a TAR 21 with FMJ, stopping power and commando
if I'm playing for fun, an MP5K and M1014 with lightweight, marathon and commando and throwing knife

After playing for a really long time (Prestige 5). I started doing all the eccentric challenges and I have completed: Nuke challenges, Surgical, Heads Up, Droppin' Crates, Mach 5, Dictator and others which were ridiculous and many times made me look like a retard. To get the crate challenges I had to waste Emergency Air Drops (luck involved).
Some of those challenges are based solely on luck, whats the chances of hitting a guy on the bonce with a care package? If you see red smoke run away from it and if you try and do it the enemy will probably steal the package(s).

I will probably just make a private match and do them with a friend.

On topic.

Acr + FMJ
Spas + grip
Flash
Claymore
Marathon
Stopping power
Ninja

Another favorite is my total stealth class, besides the spas:

Acr + silencer
Spas + grip
Flash
Claymore
Marathon
Cold blooded (you don't even show up on the UAV, which I only just found out)
Ninja

Thanks for the replies everyone.

My current setups are as follows:

M4A1 with Heartbeat Sensor
Thumper x2
Claymore
Flash x2
Scavenger Pro
Cold-Blooded Pro
Ninja Pro

Barret .50 Cal with Heartbeat Sensor and Silencer
PP2000 with Red Dot
Claymore
Flash x2
Bling Pro
Cold-Blooded Pro
Ninja Pro

I do pretty well with these setups on Hardcore mode and got a few nukes with the sniper setup.

This is my Core mode setup but i hardly ever play core.

M16A4 with FMJ
Thumper x2
Semtex
Flash x2
Sleight of Hand Pro
Stopping Power Pro
Steady Aim Pro

These setups do me fine for most games. Just looking to see wehat other people prefer and what works for them.

Thanks again for the replies.

They don't count challenges in private matches with friends for the pc version even online. For my crate achievements, I had to throw an e-drop from the bottom of the cliff on the map afghan (rear end of the crashed plane) to the top where the enemies were camping at point C on domination. I think they did avoid the red smoke but I guess one of them didnt confirm where the plane was flying from and splat, he got squashed.

ACR Silenced and Akimbo 1887's.

Perks are Scav Pro, Cold Blooded Pro and Ninja Pro.

My playing style is usually stealthy, but I whip out the 1887's when I fuck up the stealth.
At tried ACR with Silencer and cold blooded but it could take 15+ shots for me to kill someone. If you play hardcore it works fine.

I usually just move across the map patiently running from cover to cover. I like to use M14 with silencer and cold blood on team deathmatch just spam the trigger you'd be surprised how effective it is, then you don't have to worry about being detected. When things get close I use an AA-12.

Half a mag to down someone with an ACR? You're doing it wrong.

Being a measly mortal no Prestige level 38 or so, I haven't unlocked everything I'd like to use yet, but for now I usually settle with...

Weapons: SCAR-H w/ Silencer, Stinger
Equipment: Stun Grenades x2, Semtex
Perks: Sleight of Hand Pro, Cold-Blooded Pro, Commando Pro

That'd be my standard setup, but I sometimes change things around on occasion and I'll most likely switch to the ACR when I unlock it. My sniper kit consists of...

Weapons: WA2000 w/ Silencer, USP
Equipment: Flash Grenades x2, Claymore
Perks: Sleight of Hand Pro, Cold-Blooded Pro, Ninja Pro

I'm not pr0 enough to use higher killstreaks yet, I'm lucky if I can break even in most matches, but it isn't winning that's important to me.

i like to go silent. my typical load out is a silenced scar and usp with a tactical knife and then marathon pro, cold blooded pro, and TELEPORTATION pro. i also like to go pure speed with a silenced p90, usp with tactical knife, and marathon pro, lightweight pro, and ninja pro. they can't what has snuck up behind them! haha.

i'm such a metal gear fanboy....
You made some mistakes there. I like the concept of commando pro but i think the fact it causes teleportation is pretty off. Pro piping with one man army is pretty off, the code of honor of the pro pipes is that you get two shots then your done. If you miss with those your time is over as a pro piper for that life.

Give me an mp5k with rapid fire any day. Its like a friggin humming bird flapping its wings. Except they're made of lead. ALso the RPD with grip is like a small sniper rifle. And the m104 shotgun. Why does everyone hate on it? its fantastic, better than that shotgun submachine gun that we shall never speak off COUGH"AA TELEVE!?"COUGH
