[MW2]-FN FAL

mle1324 · 07-01-2010 7:12pm #1

Just like to see peoples opinions on this.

Being that the FAL is simi-auto in the game do people like to use it and whats your opinions on it?

I use it regularly in the story mode mission and must say that it's one of the best espically when its equiped with the red dot sight.

No

It's a great gun online as well, I just tap the trigger really fast, works a treat.

Only started using this today and its brilliant. Great accuracy and range, only downside for me is the iron sights, they suck

Never used it before

im not really a fan of the one shot per tap thingy, but i havent tried it out tooooooooo much so i might put it in one of my 6 classes since i have gotten to rank 70 1st prestige and i dont care about my guns too much becuz i wont be prestiging again for quite a while.

I agree,sh1t iron sights but once you put a red dot or a scope on it happy days from there.:D

Try it out in the story mode first,best mission for it is ''Takedown'' and ''The Hornet's Nest''.

I'm unlocking all the attachments for all the assault rifles to level faster. Initially I was avoiding burst fire rifles but the Famas and M16 aren't that bad but I tried using the FAL and found it horrible in multiplayer. It doesn't seem to do enough damage for its slow firing rate and in my opinion it kicks like mad when you fire it too quickly.

Yep, use the FN FAL whenever it's around in SP. Love double tapping enemies and the ACOG sight with it.

Nope, ACR all the way!

I can't take to that gun for some reason! Only use it if it's the only gun assigned in single player.

If it was the real deal you'ed take to it

.

I'ed say that the ACR is alright but in the mission ''Takedown'' I swap it for the FAL.

Basically the FAL is sorta a single shot Scar,but sometimes its better to use a simi auto gun for a while.

What I wish Call of Duty makers would do is give you the choice to switch to simi auto and auto.It would make things more interesting as less chance of recoil,espically with the AK.

No

its more of a stop and aim weapon...where as i play more run and gun.

so i use acr/m4 or scarh

i did use it sucessfully...love the fact its nearly a 1 shot kill

The SCAR is the real deal

M4A1 all the way, red dot with fmj is just poonage. I do quite like the FAL though, but like above the iron sights are horrific, if you are any way accurate you can pull off 1 shot kills with it quite a lot.

oisin_t · 08-01-2010 10:42am

No

FAl all the way! actually started using it by mistake (thought i had selected m16) and it worked out well for me! so accurate and the range is really good! although the m16 has nearly the exact same stats as it except for fire rate...

Love it in the SP campaign, it's an absolute beast as everyone's pointed out.

Tried it once in MP with my Witch class, on Derail. Got mauled. Might try it again as I've no intention of trying for 40 FMJ kills with the SCAR, and the TAR's as inaccurate as throwing a pair of trousers during a hurricane, although the UMP love's going to take a bit of shifting.

I've gone back to this to try to get mastery for that 10k XP. I'm only on 5 out of 40 though. Just having it there as a class for maps like Favela or Terminal etc etc.

The M16 rocks, nearly got all the challenges for it now.

I unlocked thermal for it a while ago. And I'm using it for sniping. Fairly useful at mid-range tbh.

Just leveling the Famas and m16 up to FMJ now and they really don't rock. You put yourself at a huge disadvantage when you're not fully automatic. They're very poor are close range.

The M16 is cool once you get rid of the iron sights but the 3 round burst can be hard to get used to.
I just remembered also that the G3 in Call of Duty 4 was simi-auto in Multi-Player,that one wasn't as good as the FAL.

i think its great for single player but sucks online

What perks does everyone use with this? Threw stopping Power on it there today, and it's literally 2 or 3 bullet kills.

Stopping Power and Steady Aim for me.

The only problem with putting on Stopping Power is you can't put on Cold Blooded which IMHO is the best perk in the game.

It's always literally a 2 or 3 bullet kill.

It is notable that Stopping Power's only effect on the FN FAL Battle Rifle is to allow a one-shot headshot at close range. Otherwise the FAL will take 2 shots at medium range and 3 shots at distant range to drop a target, regardless of if Stopping Power is used or not. This is due to the FAL's initial damage being 55/35, and Stopping Power only provides a 40% bonus - Stopping Power boosts the long-range damage only to 49, which will still need 3 hits to kill a 100 HP target. However there is currently (as of 1/5/2010) a bug with the Holographic sight where the long range damage is increased to 40, making the FAL a 2 shot kill at any distance when combined with stopping power.
