One Man Army Perk

    I just unlocked this pick a few minutes ago so I said I would google it to see what exactly it does ..............

    this is one chaps verdict

    "I unlocked it last night and tbh I didn't think I would ever use it because I like my bling and scavenger too much. Now i'm overwhelmed by how powerful it is.

    I'll explain for those who havent unlocked it yet.

    I set up 2 custom classes with the OMA perk, a WA2000 sniper and an M16 assault to swap to if the going gets tough. During the game you can press triangle and change classes at any time. The full classes screen comes on as an overlay and you can change to any class wether it has OMA or not.

    I understand once the perk is upgraded to pro the change is faster but until then - it takes about 5 seconds. You can change while in prone. A white progress bar shows on screen as the guy changes kit.

    If you change to a class that does not have OMA, you won't be able to change back until you die and spawn again as your OMA class. If you change to another OMA class you can just keep changing as often as you like.

    Heres the interesting bit - you can change 'into' the same OMA class you are currently in and completely refresh your supplies.

    So as my OMA assault I have an M16 with acog (which is amazing) and claymores. When I start to run low on ammo I can 'change' into the same thing again and get full ammo and another claymore - LOL

    I experimented last night and set up a couple of claymores and was amazed it worked. This would allow a sniper to set up claymores at every entrance to a building and seems to make scavenger redundant - because you can just change again to replenish when you are low on ammo. If the building is breached he might have time to swap to an assault class before you get upstairs.

    The drawback is you can only have one attachment on your primary weapon and you get no secondary weapon. But still, this is a VERY powerful perk with unlimited potential possibilities to change to tide of a game"

    you forgot to mention the bit about how it takes ~ 10 second to load the new class when you select it. Thats right you have to stand still and vulnerable while a little bar loads changing class information. Not the best and gets very boring after a few uses

    tried this out and you can only plant 2 claymores max. they start blowing up when you plant anymore than that
