One Man Army

    Any OMA fans here?

    I unlocked it a while back, but stuck with Bling. Gave it a go over the weekend and I'm delighted with the results. I use it with an ACR and a Claymore! It's fantastic. You can use up to two clays at a time effectively, it's like CoD4 :)

    Just change class to whatever your current class is and away you go. Negates extended mags as an attachment too! If you pro it, then the delay is about 3 seconds, probably comparable to reloading a LMG, although I'm not too familiar with them!

    Any tactics??

    Is two the limit on claymores?

    Two is the most I've used so far, and I read on wikia that if you plant a third, the first one explodes, and so on.

    I'm Quite Eager to try this out, i mean you can use stopping power until someone gets a UAV or a copter or something comes in, and then switch to anti-uav and stuff till thats gone, sounds pretty awesome in my eyes.

    What level is it unlocked at?

    Nothing to do with the perk, but I felt like a One Man Army myself last night playing a game of Domination.

    There were 5 guys on the opposing team against just me on my own!!
    Everyone that was on my team just buggered off at the start and the game kept going.

    Only managed to get 4 kills in the whole game and got my ass handed to me on a plate. They were getting serious kill streaks at my expense with choppers and harriers and every poxy thing coming at me. But did I quit? No.

    So much for evenly balanced.

    Anyway, sorry for hijacking the thread. Please continue.

    Exactly right, just change to the same class you're currently using, presto, full ammo and nades again :)

    I think scavenger is better. with claymores in ur class you can pic them up from dead enemies each time you make a kill.

    What's your GT dude, some Boardsie domination would be a good laugh me thinks!!

    Domination can be the best one there for team play, but FFA for getting that der ratio back up!

    I disagree... Say you want to stake out a building on Favela with 3 entrances on Headquarters mode. Claymore the first entrance, use one man army, claymore the second, then watch the third. Ideally you're getting there before the opposing team, which means there will be no dead bodies there to restock off of!

    I just find OMA more useful, who needs a secondary firearm anyway ;)

    Even perhaps, say you're a sniper, and you need to move quickly, start off with a class with marathon pro and lightweight pro, P90 or whatever to shoot on your way to your "favourite" spot, and then OMA to a sniper class, giving you two claymores, and extremely quick movements.

    But going by what the person said about the first claymores exploding if you plant a third one... is anyone else seeing the oppurtunity for unlimited C4???

    lol

    That's pretty much how I use it.

    Another good use I've found with it is on Domination with a Riot Shield. A & C are usually taken almost instantly but making a rush for B with a shield and smokes, capping and changing class is very awesome.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,305 ✭✭✭DOC09UNAM


    I was level 47, didn't realise i'd unlocked it at all, will be using this for domination and capture the flag now quite alot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,641 ✭✭✭zero19


    I use it to set up shop with an extra claymore if i'm sniping, but i've stopped using it as i want to get marathon pro!

    Only thing is though you wouldnt be able to swtich back.Only bad thing about OMA is it takes up a perk slot and the secondry weapon slot

    I've got it set up so OMA is in both classes! :)

    I tihnk this perk sucks. It takes forever to change class and you almost certinaly die


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,305 ✭✭✭DOC09UNAM

    Doesn't take that long dude, you'll only certainly die if your doing it out in the open, where do you hide when you reload???
