soo guys.. liked to discuss drop shotting crouching or any other move to win head to head gun fights.. personally i never drop shot head to head. its pointless... i do however. like getting tagged right before i go around a conor.. i then halo jump and drop shot and win like.. 80% of my gun fights. 1 because people are now sprinting after me b/c they think they have a kill and their gun is down and two they have a hard time keeping their aim on me.

Opinions?

Thanks. :ph34r:

I don't drop shot often. It's an accident usually. As far as halo jumping goes.. 98% of the time people halo jump to the right because its a natural movement of the thumb to push the joystick. So if someone starts to jump, I aim ahead of them to clean up the kill most of the time. Random stuff like that

I personally feel it is easier to kill someone jumping then who drop shot's. I met a couple people great at drop shot's and they were pwning with it.

A note everyone should keep in mind when drop shotting:
Because of it's popularity and "abuse", Treyarch did nerf drop shotting! Any time you are shooting while going from stand -> crouch or crouch -> prone, you will effectively be HIP FIRING! Even if you're aimed in the whole time your bullets will have hip fire spread.

Feel free to wall test this for yourself. Iirc, it doesn't effective standing back up.

Because of this, I personally only drop shot when I am hip firing the person, which means only really when I accidentally bump into someone around a corner.

So that's why my bullets phase through people, that's fucking retarded. I somewhat understood them trying to nerf sound whores, but an in-game mechanic that's been around for years? Nty.

I don't see dropshotting as abusing anything. It's a method you learn once you get more comfortable with your aiming abilities? And for them nerfing it, people still have a tremendously hard time shooting someone that's lying on the ground.
