Yeah, I usually live a lot longer than 6 seconds. Or 15. Really, you have to camp to actually do well in this game. Whether its sniper camp, or camp and ambush with a MG.

^ Obviously you would know that from the first 10 minutes of playing online.
I would compare the game to Rainbow Six Vegas. Almost exactly like it.

rainbow six vegas and cod are NOTHING alike. lol. when i play tatical i get a few kills but people start sprinting around the map knifing me in the back. no matter where you are it will happen in cod. rainbow six vegas is way more balanced and tactical.

really if cod4 was a tactical game like everyone or most everyone is saying. then why the **** wont people play smarter online? i see people constantly sprinting for no ****in reason, even if the map is small as ****, why would you sprint? whats the rush? ive only seen a few people actually post up somewhere camp and wait for the enemies in hot spots.

rainbow six vegas on the other hand i see way more people camping and playing smart, with a few people every now and then sprinting into death traps.

another thing i notice in cod4 is that when your still and not aiming the sniper rifle the bullet never hits the same spot. lol thats very bad for a sniper rifle. its supposed to shoot where ever you point it at, unless its a long distance and its windy. rainbow six rifles actually shoot in the same spot as long as you wait for the reticule refocus.

guns are way more shakier, and have more recoil when you have a scope on it. but if you use a reflex scope then the gun doesnt shake at all and has virtually no recoil. the thing i like about rainbow is all rifles are still as ****. even if its not realistic, its still really well balanced.

rainbow six's gun physics, balistics, etc. are extremely real. as well as heavy on content and customizability. where cod4 is light in content, and detailed gameplay. but super heavy in playable maps, single player story, and gametypes.

cod shouldnt be compared with rainbow as they are both completely different games with different gameplay styles, goals, areas, and tactics.

I just looked at your first paragraph.

WTF. If you can't kill a person that's running at you with a knife then you really do suck. I don't care if he jumped, if he was moving, or he threw a smokescreen. If you can't defend yourself against a knifer then that's just sad...

And I can't believe you just called Rainbow Six: Vegas extremely real...

And about the sniper thing? It's called recoil, wind, gravity, and thx to CoD4 I learned about the corialis effect. I don't really think bullets tend to be dead-on accurate in real-life. Wind effects it, gravity (bullet drop) effects it, everything comes into play.
