Yeah, I'm surprised by the Recon hate. We try to have half the team running it, any hitmarkers from anything paint them blackbird style on the minimap, how can you think that is worthless? Toss a stun bang and light up a whole team sometimes.

Because Sleight of hand is more popular as is Scavenger. I'd argue Recon is more valuable than Blind Eye most times
Most players use Support killstreaks and Blind Eye is only really useful when Assault killstreaks are up
Recon Pro is useful all game.
Recon Pro is how to do with Assassin use. Although it is easier to complain than to adjust around CODville lol.

LMAO, you need Recon Pro then. Everything you do to the enemy makes them an arrow on the map at least 3 seconds and if they don't have Dead Silence Pro 6 seconds. Any shot, flash bang, explosive makes them a arrow on the mini map like Advanced UAV except Assassin users can be seen.
If you have at least 2-3 people using this on your team, it is easy mode. It would be useless only in Hardcore modes. Also it can't be countered not even by Assassin users. I swear if more people used it, it would be considered OP. It is one of the most underrated perks in COD history I'd say. Whenever I face a team full of Assassin users or campers, instead of coming on line to bitch, I slap on Recon Pro and they are powerless

It's just useless to me since I'm more of a rusher fag anyways so I use either extreme conditioning or SoH.

Recon Pro is very useful especially if you pair it with Hardline Pro. You'll earn easy streaks simply by "tagging" enemies…
A whole team running Recon Pro is a ridiculously awesome strategy too since its counter, Dead Silence, only reduces the effects instead of cancelling it out completely.
Extreme Conditioning (Pro) is worthless. No map really needs the extra sprint time to be "that" useful, nor is the faster climbing a saving point. With the other more useful blue perks in existence, EC is useless.
