(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); How many people here have proper trigger fingers, by that i mean able to shoot at about 600RPM, the main way to tell is on COD BO and use the M14 whats fire cap is 625 so if you can make that "jam" then you can fire at 10 rounds a second

I just wonder because it seems that the semi auto phase has died out, COD W@W being the height of the "trigger finger" skillfull era.

What are your thoughs on the death of the trigger finger, and do you miss the old days of the you shoot the gun instead of "hold button till guy dies"

Cake is a lie
Mine is decent. I really got into the Semi auto groove late in BO. I used the Black Ops FAL for a little after I got tired of the hit or miss G11. I also liked the Python on Black Ops but it was easily the best secondary pistol in that game.

Now on MW3 my favorite gun next to the PP90M1 is MK14. Single shot guns are powerful and I am sort of glad they aren't used all that much. Not because I hate OP guns but because I don't have to listen to people complain about how overpowered the MK14 is.

Reaffirms to me that the whole overpowered ideal is based mostly on perception. I had a dude bitch because I used a Scar. I mean the Scar is easier than the MK14 but in no way is the Scar more powerful.

I will also add that a fast trigger finger is usually overrated. I mean it is very useful if you want to try to try your hand at rushing non stop vs all the SMG users. However, if you have accuracy, there is no need to have to shoot all that fast with a single shot minus just wanting to spray and pray.

Why have a trigger finger when you can have a RF Controller :carling:

Ok ill give you the acuracy and raise you a you turn a corner with a pistol (usp45) in my experience it is a 3-4 shot body kill. Now the guy on the other side has a ump 45. (also a 3 hit kill) You start firing at the same time, with the ump being automatic he will always get his 3 shots off faster unless you got a adeguete trigger finger.

Now the part that I agree with you is that if you shoot 1,000 RPM but can't place those 3- shots, your fast finger is worthless.

So basicly if you fire at 850+ you can empty most of the pistols in 1 second of shooting, thats a hell of a trigger finger

I don't think you understand how fire rates and semi-autos work in this game....


Fire rates aren't determined by how many shots per minute. It's time between shots. Also, the semi-auto fire cap screws trigger fingers over due to over compensation. Example being the striker: A lot of people have good trigger fingers, but the striker still shoots at a rate below 300 rpm.

I would also like to note that theater mode replays display semi-auto with more gunshots than originally shot. I'm sure some of you know this, but I'm just putting it out there.

I did know that but most guns are capped at 750, with most pistols at 1000 do i didnt think about talking avout it.

I love having a decent trigger finger for taking out juggernauts.



Not sure what the RPM would be; too lazy to do the math.

Problem rule #16?
not sure exactly how fast my trigger finger is but its pretty damn fast. I beat a turbo controller in one of Mario Party 6's button mashing games once or twice :fyea:
I just suck at alot of other aspects of COD so my K.D is shit.
