It always sucks the first week(s) Depends on how long it takes those that claim it to be unplayable to return it. Also the spawn switching has become more prominent to prevent spawn camping. (Was way to easy in BO) I like that change actually.

    I'm certainly not going to return it, but it is a problem at this point. I'm sure they'll resolve it eventually, as it usually is. It doesn't make it any less annoying, though. I've had good games despite it--as I said above, it just requires an adjustment in tactics,

    The lag compensation is part of it, another part is that the spawns in this game are the worst in the series to date.

    Plus, SMGs are to this game what ARs were in BO1. So if you primarily use ARs, that might be part of the problem. A couple of them aren't bad, but if you're on the crap side of the lag comp, don't even bother using one.

    The best part about the CombiTube is that it works in either hole.

    Don't rely on Target Finder to fix your problems, I see so many people using it on the kill cam that I have Perk 2 Greed on all my classes now and always run with Cold Blooded (I don't use lethals or an alternate - can always pick up guns in game without point cost). When you are dependent on that red diamond before pulling your trigger you are dead before you realise what you are looking at when someone with Cold Blooded comes at you.

    But until people figure this out, Taget Finder with a LMG on maps that work for ranged weapons is a deadly combination. Other than that specialise in SMG's and run and gun, seems to work ok for me.

    I am doing great. Started off a little rough but now I am killing it. I norm struggle with past COD games until I have gotten some more perks and attachments but not on this one. I almost every time come out positive in K/D

    I think a lot of people use Target Finder just because they like it as a sight. The reason that you're killing people isn't because they're relying on TF, but because they're using an LMG and you're using an SMG. With the maps the way they are in BO2, there aren't many scenarios an LMG is going to come out on top in the best of circumstances.

    Call it 'lag compensation', 'handicapping', 'net code', or whatever--it sucks to high heaven.

    I have a 2.55 KDR in the original BO.  I have a 2.75 KDR in MW3.

    In BO2 I struggle to maintain a 2.22 and it goes down every game I play because they are punishing me for having a good connection speed.

    The other day on Carrier, a guy was standing behind a container with only his head exposed.  I was using the 4 round burst M8A1 and shot that dude right in the head with THREE BURSTS getting a 'X' hit designation every time and he still didn't die!  Needless to say it was rage time.

    For run and gun, I use the KAP 40 with Scavenger perk to avoid running out of ammo. Lightweight and Marathon too. KAP 40 is deadly--as long as they are on the screen when you pull the trigger they will die.
