(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Whoever used to go on the Cod Waw Guides and Strategies sections probably remembers my guides. I'm going to start making some for MW2. This one is for Submachineguns. I will show different tactics, classes, and the stats of each gun.

1) Dropshotting

Pretty much everyone who plays MW2 knows what dropshotting is, but I'll tell you what it is anyways. First off, Set your stick layout to tactical, so you can aim as you are dropping to the ground. Run around the map, Whenever you encounter an enemy hold the RS as you are shooting. It should be hard for them to get a good shot at you. Try to avoid doing this on big maps such as Wasteland and Rundown, as it won't be very effective.

Class:
MP5k w/ rapid fire.
Any
Semtex
Stun
Sleight of Hand
Stopping Power
Steady Aim
Painkiller

Use the MP5k because it is the most effective at close range.

2) Ninja

When you use the Ninja tactic, its all about being sneaky. Run around the maps trying to be unseen. Never run into the wide open, always take the way where you will have more cover. Never stop sprinting unless you see somebody. Use this tactic on Medium-Big sized maps such as Afghan and Quarry.

Class:
UMP45 Silenced
Any
Semtex
Stun
Marathon
Cold-Blooded
Ninja [Pro is a must]
Painkiller

The UMP is the best SMG without stopping power IMO

3) Rush

The Rush Tactic can work on basicly any map, and it is the most simple. All you do is Run everywhere around the map. Try to flank the enemies. Open battlefield is your friend when using this class as long as your behind the enemy.

Class:
UMP Silenced
Any handgun w/ Tac knife
Throwing knife
Stun
Marathon
Lightweight
Commando

The Tactical knife is for if you ever want to run around slicing some people up Smile

I did not add Sidestepping/ Halo jumping as they are not effective in this game due to the high power of all the weapons.

I find it's best to use the SMG's as if I was going on a knife only game. They're so underpowered on this game your only option is to sneak up on people from behind and stick the gun up there arse sideways. It does more damage that way....WOW i've just realised how much bollocks I talk... Anyway, sneak up behind them...

It's the only way you're ever going to get a kill. If you're in a head on fight with someone, you will die. There's no two ways about it.

Nah not true. SMG>Assault Rifle in close range. The UMP is a 2 shot kill with stopping power..

Yeah when you are really close the SMG will win, but that's what it's designed for. If they get the jump on you though, I feel the assault rifles have enough power to completely smash you even at close range. With everything killing so quickly as well, I feel the advantages so an SMG are outweighed by the disadvantages.

Yea, thats why you should stick to small maps unless your trying these tactics out.
