IW-80!

CONTHEMON · 10-24-2005

the idub is kinda crappy, i unlocked it, and i'll say, its not tooo great. its good for normal $hit, like close to medium - buttttttttttttttt, the high scope is uselesssssssss. any thoughts on it?

Its amazingly accurate, with the highscope lets you see further than the gun is able to shoot. I've tryed sniping people with it and it'll put a red mark on their forehead but wont kill em. But other than that its a great gun, by far the most accurate assault rifle.

I'm not even going to waste my time playing the game again to get some IW-80 or STG. If you can't play with the guns already in the game then boo hoo. There are so many variaitons I have a hard time believing these guns are worth the time.

Hey CON... if your having problems with accuracy with the IW-80 i suggest adding a suppressor to it... i use mine with the supressor #2 and wow.. complete ownage a lot of times on my part :D plus i have used it without one.. and u are right it is kinds inaccurate... but feel free to try my method, maybe it'll change your thoughts on the ol' I-DuB

BLEH, For the sake of curiosity I finished the game in Admiral to see what was the big deal about the I-dub and STG since Zipper made them unlockable items. Well, I'm stabbing myself in the eye with a spoon. The I-dub is garbage for an unlockable. Now, the STG (Steyr)..... what a rip off, it's supposed to already have a scope and a front grip, so I figured I could attach something else but no..... no front grip....no scope. Neither weapon's performace is any better than any of the other already available ones. So Zipper wasted half a day of my life for.....nothing.

You just read my mind. I completely agree.

What were you expecting? an elite gun that you could own the best socom3 players with in a few shots?? that would be stupid... im satisfied with the performance of both weapons. you expected too much man.

For some reason I find the IW better supressorless... if you guys want accuracy, add the laser and front grip, and it'll run like a dream.

I haven't unlocked it yet. I just beat Riposte Primer or w/e on admiral, but the fact that it has good range, (I expect that since it can support a high scope, it must have pretty good range) and it can be suppressed is a big thing for me. The one thing that I don't like about sniping with the M16 is that it's not silenced, so I'll probably be using the IW-80 quite a bit.

The whole point of them is to run around with them to impress n00bs. They're not there to be good.
