Holographic > Red Dot, Holo has a bigger dot thingy, and it’s more leet to have a Holo over a noob RDS. Thermal is a better version of an ACOG BY FAR, idc that is displays in thermal, it’s a beast. Heartbeat is only useful when you have your radar jammed by N00Bs who use scrambler or whatever, and silencer is stealthier than it anyway. Throwing Knife is LEET, because only pros use it over like the semtex or claymore. The grenade launcher is a beast if you know how to use it, shotgun FAILS, extended mags aren’t worth my extra slot, FMJ is fun to have if you are spraying from your hip, but I always ADS with my THERMAL, ACOG, or Holographic and get headshots so it doesn’t have use with my BEAST .50 cal class.
ur stupid the shotty is for pros the nube tube is for 1337 h4×0r n008s
cod god, your horrible…holo sucks, less visibilty, common sense, get your facts straight, your a random.
Lol..no kidding dude…Acog is nothing like thermal…thermal is a friggn Sniper scope that shows enemies as white and his liek 3x as thick lines in it..wow…And btw fmj does ()*&^ for you if you’re shooting from the hip, all it does it strengthens bullet penetration shots. Any1 can use a Grenade Launcher…
The Thermal sight shows up enemies in the open as white on a grey scale background, provided they don’t have the Cold-Blooded perk. It increases recoil, is slow to ADS (Aim Down Sight) and blacks out all peripheral vision, but gives, roughly, a 2x zoom (more on a sniper rifle, less than a 2x zoom on others). You can also hold your breath with a Thermal sight. It is best suited to the sniper rifles, FAL, M16 and possibly the AUG HBAR. The best maps for its use are Wasteland, Underpass and Derail.
The ACOG sight also increases recoil and is slow to ADS (but still faster than a standard sniper scope) but gives a 2x zoom (increases range) on all weapons, but sniper rifles, and peripheral vision is not obscured by the black border as seen with the Thermal and standard sniper scope. It is best suited to the M16, FAL and AUG HBAR, on long range maps, as above, and ones which are slightly closer, such as Quarry.
The COD:MW maps are smaller than most COD:WaW ones and, therefore, favour frag fests over patient ambush tactics, thus limiting the usefulness of scoped weapons. Due to this fact, the ACOG and Thermal sights should be used in conjunction with the Steady Aim perk and fired from the hip during close quarter fighting if you can’t switch to your secondary weapon quickly enough (NB: The best secondary weapon is probably akimbo M93 Rafficas or PP2000s, but you could use a silenced M1014 Shotgun if they get really close and you wish to remain undetected and ‘Cold-Blooded’).
However, they are more worthy of attaching to your gun in the right situation than the Red Dot/Holographic sights, which add little or nothing to your weapon over the standard ‘Iron Sights’ and therefore should be substituted for Grenade Launcher, FMJ, Heartbeat Sensor or Silencer attachments instead.
Goat… er, thermal on Derail?? Almost useless, unless your mark nicely pops his head up through a building windows – the snowy background over most of the map completely washes out the thermal…
