Attachments becoming the "n00b" thing?

[xSHORT YETIx]

Say someone has an M16 with a grip and suppressor, he gets 7 kills in a row while sitting on a cliff or something. Then someone says "Hey! Get rid of that grip you n00b!!!" See what im saying? what if people use these attatchments and do well because they actaully know how to use them and get yelled at? I mean there are so many attachments, people will be bound to complain sooner or later. I know that most people won't, but theres always that one guy that if you do well with something, he instantly calls you a "n00b". I mean think about it!

Anyway i personally don't care what gun anyone uses at all. I mean you bought the game and pay for your internet so use what you want when you want. (Read my signature area for more)

Some people will always complain because they died, but Im not going to let that bother me. I play mostly with my clan and we play anything goes. Just dont let people control how you play the game and try to block out the people who complain although its quite hard

Shooting them seems to work really well.

No matter what Zipper or what we do will ever change those kids who have to blame their lack of skill on something like a "noob" gun. IT will never end. There will always be those who can really play, regardless of gun, and those who THINK they can, and blame their shortcomings on anything other than themselves.

The best thing to do, is make friends with people who aren't there to complain. Make enough friends so that you can always have a full room, then you just play with people you like, instead of little spoiled kids (who aren't even old enough to be playing) who just complain and act annoying.

Even if they were to leave Socom 2 exactly the same, but just take out the IW-80, there will be some other gun that everyone will start blaming all of life's problems on! IT"LL NEVER END!!

you have to admit, idubs and m14's are over powered, even the developers ahve appologized for making that large of a mistake with those guns, it snot just complaining. the conspiracy with newbtubes is that not all maps where 203 is available is the m67 or mgl available, so the terr's have no retailiation to them. (fight ally ou want about how seals are better equiped or whatever, its a game, games are supposed to be fair.) socom 3, every weapon will have a counterpart on the opposing team, as well as the same attatchments. i dont think there will be any "handgrips are newb, flashlights are newb, silencers are newb, etc" people will catch on and start using whaever theyre comfortable with. there will always be some kid that complains because your better than he is and they need to justify that. there will always be some clan that goes 4 on 1 against you and then goes "omg, youre such a newb, you could only take down 3 out of 4 of us byyourself, you got so messed up, hahahaha" deal with it, theyve taken out most of the unfair stuff and have left it more to preferance than to which weapon is best. every gun should be able to take down any oter person with any other gun, based on the players skill. i hate to say it but halo is like this, every weapon has a weapon or tactic that its weak against, there is no newb weapon. even the almighty sward can be brought down by a well timed shotgun shot, or by someone who know show to move sideways when they swing, that pisses em off so badly, especially if you hit em in the back of the head. this is what theyre aiming for, a counter to everything and nothing that overpowers anything else.

I think the weapons in socom 2 are very fair.

Example

Crossroads: SEALs have M203's Terrists have RPG-7's and "plant and forget" mines, that equals out.

Blood Lake: Both SEALs and terrorists have grenade launchers

Night Stalker: SEALs have AT-4's and great camoflauge. Terrorists stick out like a sore thumb but ahve 203's and 79's. You can avoid spawn kills by moving forward or right if you start towards the midddle. If you start towards the tent then move left. Easy.

To the topic: It's not like you can't put a suppresor on your gun and do the same thing so how would it be noob? It all depends on what strategy your TEAM goes for, for example ''Alright guys lets stay back'' (grabs scope and suppresor) or ''Alright lets hit hard and rush'' (grabs M203 and Grip) You see??? Hence: More Teamwork

To the Quote: I don't remember the developers appologizing for the M14, but yeah.
