Do a barrel roll!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); When i play MW3 i find my self using SMGs more than any other gun type. Reason for me is because i play a run-n-gun style based on the layout of maps. Most of the maps are cluttered with cover. I rarely find myself running in the open, which means im usually really close to the enemy when firing. Plus i like the fact that SMGs have a faster firing rate, and its seems they are quicker on the draw than Rifles or any other gun. So my question is, do u guys find urselves using SMGs more, and if so, do u feel they are a better class than Assault rifes based on the map layouts? Btw, I love, love, love MP7 silenced with rapid fire. So beast.

I am error
An assault riffle is mainly for big maps. It is for long range kills. A gun like the ACR will beat any other SMG at long range. So basically imo a assault riffle is for people who suck at sniper. :lol:

I know Assault rifles are for big maps. Only 3 maps i use rifles on are Village, Bakaara and Interchange.

how am i not gonna troll on the stupidest post ever.
you can use an assault riffle in any situation, it doesnt need to be long range
whens the last time you went into a game with noone using a assault rifle
oh hey, its a video game about guns, guess what, assault riffles are guns.
there is no logical reason why your thread would ever make sense

I do like to insult IW for there map design this game. Mainly it being so camp friendy
However....they done a good job with balancing ARs areas and SMGs areas

ARs fill the gap where SMGs don't do well in.
Found myself keeping away from ARs so far because i wanted to understand the map design. At first i was thinking it was the problem however over time i seen other issues being just as important why cod so campy.
Almost all maps have spots where ARs do work and same goes for SMGs

ARs on misson work very well on the edges but in the middle smgs outclass them
In these spots it where ARs are needed.
Makes overkill look good no when you discount UAVs and radar Smile

and i say that because ive been playing every call of duty using 2-3 different guns each prestige, and i find it as easy to get kills when using assault rifles than when using smg. that applies to ALL cod, not just mw3

Assualt riffles are all purpose weapons. Can be used in any situation. Even on a map like Dome. imo Assualt riffles are better than any gun combined (pack a punched).

Depends on ur style of play. If u like to camp or play on the outside then ARs u type, but If u play in the middle, then i feel SMGs work better. Again, this is an opinion.
