What's a "noob cannon"

[The Crue718]

Yea, I do hear a lot of whining when people use the M-203. Seriously you are the person who paid $50 for wouldn't you think you should be able to use the weapons? People = Scum of Life

[Wabba]

No.



203 is cheap, no matter what anyone says...i believe this was discussed before but whatever. I DO however, think that 203s/RPGs should be allowed in regular rooms (without booting). Many people opt not to use them due to common curtecy (sp?...yes) but they should never be used in clan games. Most s-2's wars are 3^3, or 4^4 and to have half your team wiped out in a single shot is stupid, not to mention unfair.

The way i take it is the 203 is the only weapon i hate. what the seals can have 2 slots of 6 203 rounds. when the terr has a measly rpg that can have a maxamum of 2 rounds. lets now compare.

203 6 rounds - 12

rpg 2

203 can shoot long distances and explode on contact

rpg can only blow up on walls and the ground

203 can be shot on the run no stoping

rpg u stop neel wait a second fire stand up agin put it away and take gun out

203 rainin hell ( seals step out of there spawn point up fire boom!! 3 terr gone

and the terr have nothing realy to compare

and every one says "all u got to do is use tactics" well when u go down the street on x roads and u go boom that was some great tactics. its not like u know hes there and u can just end up behind him while all his buddies are behind him now can u.

so just stop saying "use tactics " or "use skill" but u cant when u die before u move.

end of topic insert stupid reply below.

the so called noob cannons have problems as well. THe machine guns arent accurate, the maps in Socom arent good for shotgunners, unlike some maps in counter strike- pool dAY.

Bubble O. these types of games are very rare. we have to organise them between freinds mostly.

we tryed every type of game, and a whole team with M203 was not a problem finally after a bit of practice.

so we continue this way and it works great, is a good challenge, and very fair finally.

I don't care what type of gun my opponents use. I started playing in December so I actually prefer my opponents use the so-called noob cannons, it will only make me a better player in the long run. What I don't like is when one of my teammates whines and cries on the communicators because a SEAL just whacked him with an IW, or because he just stepped on a mine a terrorist layed down. This is especially annoying in the respawn rooms. 20 minutes of nothing but moans, grunts, and shouts of frustration is enough to make me want to abort and find another room no matter how good my kill to death ratio is.

All I'm saying is if you are getting frustrated because of the weapons the enemy is using, fell free to rant and rave all you want. But is holding down the circle button while doing so really neccessary???

[Squall FF-8]

omg thank you for saying something people say every gun that people use is some type of noob gun like the m60 the only way that gun is any good is its bullets and if you dont like someone using it then kill them it aint hard to d there nto gods or something next now people are saying that the m14 of all guns is a noob gun... are you serious its one of the hardest guns to use the only gun with 20 bullets and the most recoil ok so it kills when it hits you thats what a gun does the ONLY gun that i really do believe it a cheap gun not a noob gun but cheap is a IW-80-A2 that gun has everything m14 bullets 30 shots not recoil and to add to it there is a 3.5 scope on it thats just rediculous and thats my take on noob guns there are non people just suck and they always get killed

[AL GIORDINO]

I use the M60 and the M63 and I love them. Yeah they got a lot of ammo but that's about it, their aiming sucks, you gotta have skills and aim at peoples head. Not only that, but since both teams get them, their not really noob guns. Granted they were the original "noob guns", and the IW80 wasn't. Times have changed and so have players perceptions of guns.

VOTE FOR THE NEW "NOOB GUN FORUM." Lets get the spam to a forum of it's own.

[Morpheus]

To be honest, people that comeplain about guns make me laugh. I sometimes use them just to make them more mad. Ok the 203 can be cheap from time to time. But it's a gun. I really don't see the point.
