Well if you're going to use the F90, be aware of how many shots you'll need to kill the *.

Click here for Terrorist weapon stats.

As you can see, it'll take a lot of shots to kill someone with. Hit-wise, you're better off with other guns. The accuracy and recoil is worse than the 9mm Sub as well, so I'd camp if you fire it at long range, and I'd get as close as to enemy as possible to hit him/her with it while moving.

It's not too loud though, but there's other guns that are stronger and quieter.

well, two things to start:

1. Don't practice on "Flat Maps" with it. Maps like DG and FF are good maps to use it, but in order to get really good with it, use it on a Fish Hook, Foxhunt, or an Shadow Falls. Also, intead of guarding a bomb spot or hostage room with a Shotgun, use an F90. It has the advantage at close range against almost anything (exception being the M14 in the hands of an average user)

2. NEVER AIM FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE HEAD!! This gun should be treated like all SMGs (and like most guns): you must aim for the head. Every 4th or 5th bullet goes stray from the F90 (away from the dot in the center of your crosshair). In order to get used to this, i suggest either using it all the time, and/or using an HK5K on SEALs to make up for an F90. A good thing to rember is that, unlike the other SMGs, it uses ammo only compatable with one other gun:the F57. If you run out of ammo, your screwed (unless you pick up another gun or can use your pistol).

Thats all the advice i can offer, but if you get sick of it, try using the M63A. It like an F90, but more powerful

The F90 can be deadly. All it takes is one head shot to drop someone (lag permiting). This as well as all smg's are excellent!!!

I apologize for not being clearer. I was in the middle of a lecture when I posted. What I meant was that the F90 has one of the fastest (if not THE fastest) fire rates in the game. That means many more bullets zipping towards the heads of the enemies! :P

I'm just saying its really innacurate, i tried it once, (there seemed to be no lag) and i shot a guy from the distance of like the end of the red room bridge to the switch to blow the red room, almost a whole clip like 40 shots, he didnt die, almost every single shot i saw blood.

Get an m16.

Like i said, use the F90 in open maps(Desert Glory, Night Stalker, Blood Lake, etc.), as well as closed maps for better practice(Frost Fire, Death Trap, etc.). I would try to do a respawn medly before your comfortable with it. Also, try to use a SEAL gun that works the same way, like the HK5(SD).

It aint no suprise you didn't kill him. SMG are for shorty range fire fights. Long range is not what they were designed to shoot. If you have ever shoot a Carbine or an SMG you can definalty tell the differance in real life.
