I don't remember what I all touched on in the vid and don't want to watch it back, but as someone who has played CoD for many years I can point out the differences for you. In MW2 dropshotting worked the best..but even then commando/rangers/spas or any kind of insta-kill would still prevail sometimes. There was no stalker perk or stock attachment, so people couldn't easily strafe a dropshotter. Jumpshotting was also slow and clunky, plus people die too quick to fully benefit from a jumpshot anyways in MW2.

BO1 nerfed the dropshot. They removed the ability to penetrate objects at all, so every single thing you bumped up against would prone block you. Not only that, but they made the drop speed slower and pivot speed slower. Also, guns do less dmg, so panic knifers were even more prevalent in BO1. BO1 also introduced the bad lag comp that we know today, so the game in general is bad. Jumpshotting is usually the best option here.

MW3 introduced the stalker perk, which pretty much totally rapes dropshotters in many scenarios, so strafing is usually the best option in MW3. Dropshotting still works decent in this game.

BO2 brought back the stock attachment, but due to the 10 point system, most people don't use it on anything besides ARs. Droping to the ground is still just as slow as it was in BO1, but the pivot speed is even slower, so it's even more nerfed. BO2 also brought back the same lag comp that was in BO1, so it's also a bad game in general. Again, jumpshotting is usually the best option.

I'm just trying to do you a favor, because announcing publicly that you think dropshotting is "cheap" instantly implies you're bad at the game to anyone who actually trys hard and/or is a competitive player. You didn't comment on whether or not your think jumpshotting is cheap as well? You'd probably throw up in your mouth if you watched any competitive gameplays since they jump and drop constantly.


Holy TL:DR essay...

"Hey you say you don't like dropshotting you're going to make all the dropshotters think you're bad."


If you think dropshotting or jumpshotting makes you good then I have to laugh at you. Sorry me calling out your consistent cheap style play made you go all keyboard warrior on me... "didn't even realize it was your video". Not to say I'm at all "pro", but definitely not "bad" maintaining around a 1.6-1.8kd without using any sort of cheap tactic or the regular use of any commonly considered overpowered gun. I consistently change my gun presets to mix up my game play and have more fun.

Why are all the QS'ers complaining about the nerf?

I use both weapons, and have found no difference. BUT....As Jupe said............................

I don't think you know what that means..

I wouldn't have to break things down if you knew how to communicate. You've yet to explain your position beyond 'just because'. Keep on keepin' on though.

Stand still..I'm trying to shoot you! Quit moving..that's cheating! Stand still and fight like a man. Wait, wait.. give me a second to move to this headglitch first.

As if keyboard warrior has a set definition lol??

Please do not project your insecurities onto me sir...

My "position" doesn't need explaining, it is the common belief. There is no point in explaining an opinion like this... You will continue to see it differently regardless obviously. It is something that gives you an advantage that should not. It is cheap in the same way headglitching or jumpshotting is.

I run around with just an RPG and scavenger sometimes. This too is cheap play, but there is no shame in playing cheap as long as you have fun.

A keyboard warrior is commonly referred to as someone flaming and saying things they otherwise wouldn't say IRL. Logical discussions usually require more text when the obvious conclusion isn't good enough. I was just trying to explain.

I'm not insecure at all, but I am quite humble as I said previously I'm just a pubstomper. I know what my stats have been in all the CoDs and I don't need to post them.

It's a common belief, because most people don't have 2+ KDRs or 3+ W/L. Most people play casually and are content with mediocrity.

You're right about me continuing to think differently though. You're never going to convince me that standing perfectly still in the middle of an open field is smart, strategic or tactical in anyway.
