WHY DO PEOPLE USE THE M16?

[XGC FAILSAFE]

This Ultimate weapon on Call of Duty 4 has a little controversy over it. One thing I as a Tenth Prestige would like to know is why so many people use such a cheap weapon. I know its a start off weapon but that doesn't mean they have to keep using it after level 35 because there are other means of which you can get kills easilly.. Just to be known I usually get over 35 kills with less than 5 deaths in Team Deathmatch when i am forced to use this gun. I ask is this fair?

 

[VwC Venom]

yeah very fair, who cares what people kill you with...you have access to the same gun so who cares

 

[XGC FAILSAFE]

I hate the thing with a passion because it's so cheap, but thats just my opinion of course though infinity ward wouldn't put such an unbalanced weapon in the game.

 

[VwC Venom]

the only thing that makes it fair though is that its in three round burst, so if you are close any smg should easily take it down

 

[XGC FAILSAFE]

True thats what i usually use against it on smaller maps but when you get on big open maps it really is rediculous.

 

[VwC Venom]

yeah its very accurate and powerful...the only way to beat it really is to hit it with a sniper from longer distance...be very sneaky lol

 

[XGC FAILSAFE]

Yea I use juggernaut when i have somebody using a M16 it seems to **** em off because it isnt a one shot kill weapon. When you put that on a sniper it really gets to them. I LOVE IT lol

 

[XGC ACKBONE XS]

i hate when people complain about this weapon...who cares if people use it. Its in the game, learn to deal with it....

 

[XGC ProHexen]

Yea who cares if they use it. Go use it back on them. Thats what I do.

 

[XGC FAILSAFE]

I just think that if you use it your not helping urself get any better because its a point and shoot weapon. lol Even a monkey can do that. If you want to impress me kill me across the map with a scorpian. And usually atfter the game they try and say you are the one who started using it first. Then after 2 mins of compalaining on how ur so cheap they start newb tubing.

 

[VwC Venom]

see i dont mind the M16 but what kills me is the noob tube...wish they never would have put that damn thing in the game

 

[Wolf Pack 043]

A-****ing-men. I could care less what weapon other people use, chances are, it won't save them anyway. But when i see an M-16 with a grenade launcher, it pisses me off to no end.

 

[XGC FAILSAFE]

yea me too

 

[ThermalFive]

I have to say I'm not exactly a fan of the M16 myself but its in the game and I deal with it. At least they have to actually hit you with it. I hate when people run around newb tubing all the time. Thats what gets me a little irritated.

 

[VwC Venom]

yeah the noob tube is so easy to use, just point and click

 

[SYN Aldreck]

It is kind of annoying when people use it but Venom makes a good point: it is there from the beginning, whether in a set you get at lvl 1 or one of the two assault rifles in the create-a-class feature. There are a few things more cheap then this gun, and i could go on all day about stupid stuff people do to get kills, but the true challenge comes not in using it, but in using it well.

 

[Wolf Pack 043]

Good point, the good will use it well, and the great will learn to defeat it.

 

[KoG PROPHECY XS]

people use it because it gives them the best chance to win

 

[XGC FAILSAFE]

Today i went 104 and 17 with it on a headquarters game with it on bog Just because the other team wouldn't stop using it. i feel like you don't gain any skill in using it, and people complain when i use it. So i've changed the way i use it. I keep one in a permeanent kit all the time now so i actually i encourage it because i dont take it out untill i get killed by one. So i dont care anymore. I tell people to use it all they want to now!

 

[XD V Dub XD]

heres the thing. im one of those people that fight fire with a cannon filled with burning pieces of wood and hot coals. They want to use their precious M16, fine. ill just camp in the corner of a building, C4 in hand and watch those M16-using-nubz go boom. now THAT is the perfect way to combat the M16. and virtually every map has an amazing spot to C4. look for a high-traffic spot with good cover. having trouble finding one? send a friend request to myself or xTHEDUKEx14. We are professional nubs. WE have found every way to win a game in the nubbiest way possible and go extremely positive. and mute our mics and listen to the M16 kids cry and moan about how all we can do is camp with C4. next game, bring out the skorpian acog, game over. they never had a chance. best way to remove a nub from game. follow that procedure.
