Also the AK is absolute crap! I only finished it by being Ouromuv in Heroes... strange thing is, in MWR and other CoD games it is considered the best gun all round... so which game has the AK right?
In real life, the AK is one of the most used weapons around the world, but definitely not because it's the best. It's easy to get and it is useful due to it's reliability and ruggedness. It is far from being the most accurate weapon; the Taliban often spray an area with it more than aim it precisely. It also has a slow firing rate compared to other ARs. Where games differ from real life is in the damage of the weapons. In real life, if you are firing an AR, the damage is there. No one is gonna take a couple rounds to the chest. Therefore accuracy is more important.
As to which game has it right, I'd say neither, not that I've actually shot one before. Goldeneye is right in that it would be the lesser of the ARs but it is not nearly as weak as they make it in the game. What makes it so good in COD is the damage and I'm pretty sure they gave it the boost in damage just to compensate for all of it's other shortcomings, such as it's slower rate of fire and inaccuracy. Give me an M4 Carbine or M16 anyday. They are the more modern weapons.
Anyone else think it's crazy easy to win a golden gun game? I played it a few times over the last few days to finish off the golden gun xp and I was winning every time with the next closest enemy at 12 points with 2 gg kills to my 40+ pts and 7/8 gg kills??? Not sure why it was so easy as I was expecting it to be much harder.
@Rory - good games tonight. We wouldn't have lost that close one if the rest of our team had more than 6 kills or whatever terrible number they had... I should've stopped sniping earlier too and just been killing. For some reason I was in a sniping mood tonight.
anyone else having issues with the spawning points? before it was never a problem but now it seems like i'm constantly being started right in front of enemies who are often already shooting in my direction. the dumbest spawn i've gotten was in nightclub on the upper landing where everyone always is, both teams were having a huge fight and the game spawned me right in the middle of it. that's not even the dumb part, there was an exploding grenade that killed me before i even assumed control of my guy! i just was on the other side of it, i spawned literally right behind a sniper at a window in docks. it was close enough that i could melee him without even having to move...
@Romulux. I have not but the enemy has respawnd in front of me on outpost about 15 times in a row while I was sniping. Couldn't help it but to continue to kill him. Ended up 33and 4 that game. I should be back on tonight. I've missed people the last few days. Got on after 2 am the other night.

Yeah, on some levels there is sometimes issues with spawning. On Memorial, people will often continually spawn in the same place allowing me to get tons of sniper kills. I've also just sat waiting for people to continuously spawn in Industrial. It turns into a game of whack a mole. As soon as they pop up, you put em back down.
Yes, in one of the matches I played yesterday -- I think it was on Station -- I spawned five or six times in the same room as a bunch of the enemy, and they took full advantage! It does seem to be a new development, but I wonder if it's not just that people are learning where the spawn points are and are camping by them?

I haven't been around for about a week, as I've been on vacation. So I have most of you added to my roster, but not quite all, and I hope to start playing some more Goldeneye pretty soon.

I've spawned in the enemy camp at the start of a game before (today actually)... I was Russian, but spawned in MI6 areas. Thankfully, they didn't notice me and got a quad-kill. Strangest spawn EVER!
I spawned in front of one guy coming down the stairs in Industrial once. Thankfully his aim was... well bollocks to be honest. And was a free kill.
@Tech Sorry for not responding to your first lot of invites, but I was in a cracking good match. Got 1,500 xp too.
Good games though... that Industrial match went poorly for me at the start for some reason... but overall we gave them a good spanking.
Loved the Archives match, I felt together we kinda flowed around that map like dancers lol, got tonnes of kills too. You stole two of mine though.
Hopefully we can get 4-lifers together eventually.
I was also thinking about making a new sorta NL exclusive mode: One day (like Saturday), we get 4 lifers together and only use pistols. See how many people we can annoy, and show our pistol expertise. I think it'd be lots of fun, I've tried it solo with the P99 (crap gun I know) on Conflict and its an absolute blast.

Sounds good to me, although my pistol skills are a bit weak still.

@xDemon720x I was the deciding vote on that's archives one. I thought I remembered you saying you likedthat board. I like station better but don't mind archives either. I figured you would do good on that level that's why I picked it!!
@Romulux... no spawning issues here, that is until tonight when I was playing with you... I spawned right in the middle of the firefight a few times. I've never noticed an issue before. I know I've spawned close to a gunfight, but it's b/c I'm close to a teammate.
@OBI... quite possibly the greatest single shot in all of GE happened in front of my face this evening. We were in the archives on team conflict and you had one shotgun shot that elim 3 enemies at once. We came around that corner in the center upstairs and, voila!, they were all lined up and you got the shot off before me;)
Any advice on the drumhead? I can't wait to finish off the xp on that gun cause the firing delay is killing me!!! I can't count how many times I've hit the trigger and... nothing... I'm dead. 49 more kills and I'm finished, back to the pt-9
i felt bad for obi tonight, always getting booted to the other team for no apparent reason. the spawns were definitely goofy tonight too, mostly at the expense of the other team. lots of sitting ducks... not that they would have had any more of a chance if they had finished spawning. i had a 10+ killstreak, ran out of ammo, switched to my pistol and still kept it going for a good while in one match.
rdb, i never noticed anything weird about the drumhead's firing. it was the best shotgun to me by a good margin, so if there was a delay it worked well enough for me.
- Here's the long-awaited update to the list. - (I always keep the list in my sig updated, but I haven't posted here in a while) I’ve started to add the nicknames of those of us who use a different name on Goldeneye, so fellow NLers will know who we are. I should have added everyone who has put their code on this thread up to this point, so let me know if I don't show up on your friends list, or if you don't show up on the list below.
@everyone: perpetuate our dominant reputation! Add "[NL]" before your name
For those of you who want to print the list out to write notes on it, or check everyone off as you add them, or if your computer isn't near the TV, this list is now a Microsoft Word document.
Ugh, I'm hating License to Kill mode. I know it'll get better once I level up, but I just can't survive against all the high rankers and their high-powered weapons right now with just my comparatively puny Stauger. Any time I can actually find anyone, they just spray the area with bullets and I'm dead in what seems like one hit. After a while I just stopped caring and started using the pistols and shotgun as much as I could, just to get some kills in for the proficiencies. That's what happened when we played in the Jungle and I only had three kills (all against Tech with the Torka) I couldn't find anyone except for Tech the entire match and I just kept getting shot in the back of the head. It didn't help that they split us up into different teams that time, either. Not only was I out-gunned, but the people using them actually knew what they were doing. I finally managed to finish the proficiencies for the Something-550 shotgun, though, after playing a few conflict matches
@RBD yeah that was great thay were just all lined up, i was lucky to get there before you i felt like i was racing you down the corredores lol! @romulux i dont mind playing against you guys anyway, man i was sweating playing against all of you, i gotta play better or die its a good way to try and improve my game! i start moving heaps better after playing against you thanks everyone for the games tonight great fun! add all the new guys tommorrow
