Let's talk about Claymores effectiveness. Honestly, who finds claymores to even be worth that slot it takes up...?
For a while, I was trying to get good with claymores. They are fun, and when you have them pointed right at the guy, and you hit it at exactly the right moment.. they can be effective.
With practice, I thought I could use them well, and get really good with them. I was hoping to shock everyone on my clan with my claymore skills.. I wanted to get kills with them every game.. I tried everything, from setting them up right when the round starts, and camping with them... all the way to only using them if I was the last Seal left and I was against a bunch of guys..
After a while, I just decided that they are not worth it. Yeah I can get kills with them often enough, but sometimes the guys just run through the claymores like they are nothing! Often they just get knocked down, with no loss of life. ORRRR... the claymores just get blown up by a stupid nade. All in all, I decided to not even use them. If you got the guy in sight enough to blow some claymores without him knowing your there.. its probably just as easy/easier to pop out and shoot the guy.. and use that extra slot for 2x ammo or some extra nades.
The problem is you have to have them in range of the guy, but also have them hidden enough so he doesnt seem them, and goes in range. This is a double edged sword. I've tried all those spots you guys posted, and yeah, sometimes you have luck, bust most of the time.. nothing.. which is why I say they aren't worth the slot. They just aren't nearly as effective as mines, because you need to see the guy without him seeing you, and you need to use the claymore at the perfect moment to kill him.
Who here actually can get claymore kills on the regular and finds them worth it?
