My Labour.

After many many many sessions of COD4 and plenty plenty plenty of restless nights thinking of strategies and perks packages, I have finished my labours.

Sneaking behind people and popping their heads is not easy. You have to stealthy, quick and accurate. Numerous failed attempts have made me patient and cunning. In the end, after much small victories and humiliations, I have prevailed. Behold....

My Gold Uzi!

My Gold Uzi.

I have unlocked gold weapons for every weapon category and complete every challenge, except Carpet Bomb, which have eluded me for long. I am tired, but satisfied, to know that i have unlocked everything that can be unlocked in COD4. It isn't easy you know.

Guns that are not, but sould, be in COD4

Here we go, another utterly useless blog post about guns. For obvious reasons, pictures here are not mine and grabbed from various websites.

First off...

SA-80


The SA-80 is the standard issue rifle for the British Royal Army. Attached with the SUSAT sight seen above its allegedly the most accurate infantry rifle today. So why wouldn't the S.A.S be using this but the American M4? No idea...

Ooh... this gun also appears in '28 weeks later'... Brit army... remember?

LSW (Light Support Weapon)


This is just an accurized version of the SA-80. Made for medium-far range sniper support. Soap should be using this instead of the M21 in that mission where he rescues Nikolai.

M24
This weapon, which has appeared in Battefiled 2 as you can see here, is just as accurate as the M40 but is magazine loaded. They should have included this instead of the R700 (which is just a civilian version of the M40) in Multiplayer. Reload times would be faster.

M2 .50 cal
This big brute is mounted on almost all HUMVEEs in service today. And since HUMVEEs are a primary mode of transport for the USMC, Activision should have made a level in which the player mans a M2 on a HUMVEE fagging Ultranationalist Al Asad scum.

Steyr AUG

Activison should have included this guy in Multiplayer just because of its popularity. I mean... who can't remember this guy if you've played CS. Plus... the Malaysian Army and many other notable military units uses this, but thats besides the point.
Glock
One of the most iconic handguns after the Beretta is of course the Glock. I am not sure about the others, but i think COD4 Multiplayer needs a bit more handguns for the sake of variability. Perhaps they could have included this Glock bestseller or the Glock 18 which can fire 3 round burst. (seen in CS)

Browning High Power

This 50 year old (ok, i'm not sure if its 50 years old, but it should be around there), 13 round 9mm handgun is trusted by personnel all around the world because of its reliability and simplicity in design. Rivaling the Colt 1911 in history, this weapon should be there.

Sub-Machine Guns

No pictures here, because i have just too many to suggest and only 1 should make it. Instead of the Skropion (which i don't think any military unit in the world uses), Activision should have included an SMG that fires the .45 ACP so that it could match ammo with the USP .45 and the M1911. The first .45 SMG that comes to my mind is the Ingram Mac-10, but that boxy thing, like the Skropion, is not used by many military units... its more fitting to be in a gangster game like GTA4 (which it is in). Another SMG that comes to my mind is the Heckler & Koch UMP .45, at this point you might say i get all my ideas form Counter-Strike, which i guess is partially true because its just such an iconic game! Its like an FPS staple. So... if Activision minds copying the hugely successful Counter-Strike and would like something different, they should either get the super mordern not-even-out yet KRISS SMG or... hehehehe bring back da Thompson!!!

And since its a little too late to put these guns in COD4, i would like to see the old cast in COD4 plus my suggestions in COD6!!!
