I am not an expert on the Uzi but did find it kicked a little with the rapid fire and did not bother using after the first time. Not bad with silencer although I usually have marathon, light weight, comando when using it and dont bother going for long shots

This is probably common knowledge to the rest of you but I found something new last night : you can stockpile killstreak rewards. I was playing Demo with a few people from AVF on Skidrow, I was defending and getting plenty of kills but I never get enough time to call anything in before I got shot so when the next round started I had 3 care packages (predator, counter-UAV, ammo), a predator, and a heli to call in all at once. Usually I'd get a reward and call it in straight away but in Demo it seems more tactical to keep them for the next round.

Definitely worth keeping a predator missile because there is no delay in when it can be used when the 2nd round starts so easy to kill the whole team with 1 predator

Just spent about an hour being crap. I went negative the whole time and the games played all the way through.

Got into a game where I was 18-2 and on a roll then host quits and game falls apart.

Found another lobby and did terrible again. Games played all the way through.

Found another lobby and was doing great again. 15-0, hopefully i'll beat my 15 killstreak. What happens? The host quits and the game falls apart again.

Why won't this game let me beat my previous best? Every time I look like i'm going to beat it or even if I do beat it the game falls apart to cancel the score.

The last couple of nights I've had random TDM's and the people I was playing with/against (strangers, not friends from here) were the same sort of level of ability as me.  They probably got the game for christmas.  Anyway, I've had some great games and finished 1st a couple of times (thats a new experience!) and got a 13 kill, kill streak and got all my killstreak rewards out in 20 seconds of each other.  Really has boosted my enthusiasm for the game and helped me to improve a bit as when I play with fellow AVF'ers I can't really keep up and end up with a score like 3-15 or something like that.  I'm hopeful that one day I'll be able to keep up with some of the guys from here...

Played again tonight and it carried on in a similar vein.  Got my best killstreak up to 15 now and got to Level 70 and unlocked the AK47.  Really nice gun but you have to use the iron sights with it or it bounces around too much.

And then I hooked up with some fellow AVF'ers and went back to getting 3 kills or maybe 5 so I got the hump with it all, was very very laggy too, and I signed of before it gave me the hump too much.  Hate going 1vs1 with someone, firing first, getting the hit markers then getting killed.  Especially when the killcam shows me not even shooting!!!  DOH!!

Even worst 1 on 1 is when you shoot two or three bullets hitting them and then they get onto their knees, lay down, scratch their nose, aim at your belly and Booooooooom headshot and you are dead. Never understand how that works but  i move on and hope my claymore gets them next time

feel free to add me and reduce my Kd even further

Another **** day. It's like the game stores up a whole **** load of bad luck and dumps it on you in one big lump that will last a couple of days.

In four hours of play today I might as well have just stood in the middle of the map and did nothing to defend myself. Every time I saw some one to shoot I was shot first or some one else got there first.

Best game was 5/5/15

I switched to low end rewards with hardline and couldn't even manage a care package.

You are not the only one to suffer that.

I played a few games this morning, and there was nothing I could do to turn around the beating I was getting.
I used to absolutely own on Scrapyard, but now I can't remember the last time I had a positive k/d ratio on that level.

The other thing is that i'll either start badly (Afghan ~ 1 kill 10 deaths) or start well, 12 kills, 5 deaths....and then it will go to pieces and my deaths outweigh my kills.....that's what's really bugging me.

I don't know how to do better at this.....have I peaked?
