I wanted to start a seperate thread to discuss builds, strategy etc for Black Ops 2 multiplayer. There seems to be a lot of discussion on what we like and don't like. What builds do you use that you find success with? Also, feel free to share any tips and tricks you may have picked up.
Right now I have the most success with SMGs. Specifically the MP7 and the PDW. Once I get the Scorpion I am sure I will like that as well because I have picked it up a few times and thought it performed well. I feel that with the small maps and frantic pace being able to hip fire and have quicker ADS is more important to the extended range assault rifles provide. For both of these weapons, and assault rifles for that matter, I use a silencer and reflex sights. I also love the 870 shotgun on the really tight maps with the long barrel and a reflex sight. That thing is a monster once you get used to it.
For perks I again focus on the fact that most skirmishes are close range, so I use Lightweight and Dexterirty. You would think Toughness would be helpful as well, but usually not flinching as much while being shot means nothing because once a bullet hits you it is pretty much the end anyway. Scavenger is a great perk too, but not as important in this title in my opinion because there are other weapons all over the ground and in general you will die before you run out of ammo. I use UAV, Hellstorm and Stealth chopper and rarely have an issue with ammo even when I am getting close to the chopper.
For equipment, it sounds crazy, but I use a bouncing betty (sometimes 2) on practically every class. I find them more reliable than grenades for getting kills and I carry a flashbang if I want to toss one into a room being camped anyway. Nothing is better than being a kill away from a killstreak and having a +100 pop up on your screen from the betty you threw down 2 minutes ago.
That's what works for me so far. What about you?
