I tried out a couple of new things today, just for fun. I played one match on Nuketown with the Stakeout. I was pretty satisfying and I had a decent score. The Stakeout really has a better range than you would expect from a shotgun. The downside is that is only stores four rounds and shoots pretty slowly. I also tried out two combinations of dual wield SMG's. I NEVER use SMG's so I thought I might give it a shot.
Dual wielding these is a blast! |
The first attempt was pretty lame. I had two Skorpions on Summit and it just didn't feel right. I did manage to keep a positive K/D ratio but it was rough. I realized that I had to be extremely close to opponents to even have a chance of hitting them, let alone killing them. The next attempt was much better. I used two Spectre's on Grid and tore shit up real good! I was the top player in the match. I only had to be a bit more defensive and stay inside or close to corners to avoid Assault rifle and LMG fire from long range. I think if I had a pistol as well, I would do even better.
Then I reverted back to my trusty old M60 and had below average performance. I think I was distracted and I was just a little bit slower than usual. It was still fun but I cursed at my TV more than once.
