Post: Why don't YOU use the Strela?

Shoots down killstreaks easily and very fast. If you have it and use it properly, you will most likely win.

I suspect 90% of you don't use it, according to another thread asking for people's classes; you don't. I barely see people in game with it.

Yea, it replaces the pistol. So what? I use the AK47 with Ghost (so no Scavenger), I got the worst aim ever due to my lag, and I still manage to have enough bullets for a Chopper Gunner.

What do Perks have to do with Secondaries?

**Well, the secondaries don't replace the primaries like in MW2. Hence, you don't need them unless you run out of bullets, which you won't (unless your aim is like, 1/30 bullets hit)

The only possible exceptions I can think of are:

1) You want to have fun and use Ballistic Knife
2) You are using a Sniper Rifle
3)You are using an LMG without SOH (ie: You're out of your mind)


Please enlighten me as to how an auto CZ75 puts you in any advantage vs someone with a FAMAS or AK74u.



PS: Please don't say "I use it for CQC when I need to reload I switch to my secondary". If I don't need it, no one does. I run and gun like hell.

PSS: Don't say "Because people in BO are not good teammates." I'm not asking why you think others don't use it, I'm asking the ones that don't use it why they don't use it.

I'm usually the only one on my team shooting down the air support it pisses me off.

because i have ghost pro. so i dont need to take down air support. so i dont care if my team mates die from it. Also its a bit of a waste of a secondry if ur in a 1v1 combat and u run outta bullets

Trust me, its worth it. You'll have a :carling: time every time you shoot down a Gunship.... It does piss me off sometimes too, but the question is "how is a pistol any better?"





Yea but you'd be helping your te...oh nvm, it's COD.






Well for one I think I help my team by getting Attack Helicopters(though they sorta suck), Chopper Gunners, and kills in general way more than by shooting 2 missiles at a Helicopter they probably gave up to begin with.

On MW2 I always had a Cold Blooded Class waiting to take out Harriers because people were too dumb to shoot ONE missile at it, and next thing you know Nuke....

Lastly, I usually pick up a secondary off the ground after I kill. That way I can have Assault Rifle and a SMG. That's my reason for not using the Strela.

You can play on my team and help all you want. I just feel like playing objectives and getting kills helps the team way more than being some noob staring up at a Chopper Gunner getting killed....Plus I know how it feels to get shot down as soon as you get in the Gunner, and it's usually by the worst person on the other team.

I use it on pretty much every class I have set up on the game... I shoot down at least 3-4 air based killstreaks per game. I especially love getting them before the even enter the map.

if ghost protected me from killstreaks i would use it more but at times, it's me staring into the sky, hearing the beep only for me to die.

I hope you're not the kind of guy with RC Car WITH HARDLINE and you get more Strela shoot downs than kills...I really hope not
