To be honest, I'm not a fan of bunny hopping. Nade or tube away... but bunny hopping just looks stupid. Unless of course you can jump like that in real life

I've been told off for just doing jump shots with an M14 (not bunny hopping). I was behind a barrier and jumped up just high enough to pick someone off before landing. I just told them to try it with an M14 and see just how 'easy' it was.
Things i hate (mostly why i dont hit pub servers anymore)
Noob toobers
Nade spammers (x3 perk)
Martynoob
Juggarnoob
LastNoob
The best perks are simply this:
Bandolier
Stopping Power
Deep Penetration
More ammo = more kills
Stopping powa = Normal strength bullets (without it bullets are rubber)
Deep penetration = Actually kill people through walls
All other perks are just useless crap and serve no real purpose :/

Tell me about it, CoD4 is of a worringly rising trend in gameplay ethos that developers are opting for with the increasing disdain for what it is that makes something competitive in the first place. Which I sum up as:
"As most of the people who play games aren't very good at them, they should be catered for completely and the core gameplay centred solely around them."
What once were a test of skill, reactions and psycologial prowess have become nothing more than shallow, spam induced kill frenzys to be had by all, off-setting any short comings you may have with such things as perks.
It saddens me that to play CoD4 competively I have to play a modification of it that goes well beyond your regular server scripts you would find in other FPS games, a modification that tries so hard to trim away the modern tripe and cut it down to its basics that I find it backlashes on itself to the point when playing it I find myself thinking "why go through all this nonsense when I could just be playing CS" which this mod is so desperately trying to emulate.
Playing with my trusty M40A3 in hand, public servers are a minefield for me. Juggernaught users... I can usually tell who they are by the fact it just took me 2 shots to the head to down one of them (note this isn't based on hardcore whoms vast popularity will stand alone to verify the afformentioned ethos), which with the bolt time of the M40A3 is just about enough time for them to have unloaded an entire cilp my way and be happily reloading to their second. This wouldn't be so bad if any of the weapons in the game weren't also designed with that same troublesome ethos, whether it be sub machingune, heavy machinegun or just one of your bread and butter rifles you will be firing vast bursts of bullets from one end of the map to the other with laser precision. But then we have handy recoil to fix wild sprayers from accumulating a decent wad of kills? right? wrong... i'm yet to discover the gun in CoD4 which actually has any, another +1 to the skill-less crowd.
Then you have your martrydoms and your last stands, for whom the array of other free kills being handed to them on a platter just isn't enough, people knowing full well they don't stand a chance vs just about anyone when it comes down to 1v1 combat, but hell, heres the kill you wished you had of gotten fairly, dignity intact, anyway.
Infact CoD4 is the only FPS I think I have ever encountered in which if I see a known good player vs a known bad player, I wouldn't know which way to bet... sure the good player can aim, he can react quickly he can out wit the bad player, but is that enough? the bad player can throw endless amounts of nades his way, the bad players gun has a 100 bullet clip and will all fire with deadly accuracy with the simple holding of his left mouse button, the bad player also has more health than the good player giving his free kill cannon just that extra bit of time to work its magic and just incase should the good player have the nerve to use skill against him theres a decent chance the bad player will be taking Mr. Goodplayer with him.
But that being said, I love CoD4, which after all that I find is only a testament to how robust of a game it is, but if FPS games continue in this trend then I can only feel sorry for the few who happen to possess whatever it is that makes them the skilled few, I only hope CoD5 turns my frown upside down.

hopefully cod 5 which should be out at end of this year which isnt that long really is another uo cant see it cause weve got the console brigade now which has ruined modern fps.
pam mod is the only serious games that can be had now and only real enjoyment i get from standard cod4.

Good post, btw perks will be incorporated into CoD: World at War
damn it... I wouldn't be suprised if they made the CoD5s "normal" mode based on CoD4s hardcore due to its largely misplaced popularity.

Go through them all, (you get an extra map added in 1.4)
Bandolier = Waste of a perk.
Why do you need more ammo when you can pick some up from a dead body?
Whats noob about Juggernaut?
If Juggernaut is noob, then Stopping Power is noob. Without stopping power, it just takes 1 extra bullet to kill the guy. With Juggernaut, it just takes 1 extra bullet to kill the guy. They cancel each other out if 2 people uses these perks.
Also, the other perks aren't all useless.
RPG = Shoot down chopper easily (useless if playing on chopper disabled server)
Claymore/Iron Lungs = Good for snipers
UAV Jammer = Good for snipers/People who use silencer
Slieght of Hand = Good for people who don't use LMGs/P90 spray and pray
Steady Aim = Fire from hip accurately

look at it this way
Number of people who just want fun > number of people who want to play in some league.
hence fun = profit.
Don't like it go play 1.6.
lul how is that noobeh?
OMG you mean people don't like the same thing you do NO WAIII!!!O! they must ban it now!!
Why should a game cater to a tiny proportion of people so they can then go on about how uber leet their skillz are, and how every one else who just wants fun is a noob?
I'm so going to look like the bad guy in this post
I suppose Bandolier is a waste of perk but without it ammo is really scarce, there's rarely a case i dont run out of ammo WITH bandolier on. It's just better for how i play, dont like loads of nades because bullets are more effectice. Claymor's are useless, you get two kills with them - Even then they arn't guaranteed to kil. C4 doesn't suit CoD4. RPG's are rather useless too, they are underpowered compared to the GL and i find that weird :/
Juggarnaught is for the people who can't stay alive for ****, it's an anoyance to empty a whole clip into someone even WITH stopping power on, they do not cancel eachother out. Another useless perk is Double Tap, your bullets are half as weak but you shoot two for every one - Same effect as Stopping Power but you run through ammo too fast.
RPG - As stated above, it's just not better than having ammo.
Claymore/Iron lungs - The sniper needs as much ammo as possible, if they are half decent and cam survive using a pistol. Iron Lungs i have used and it's useless compared to Deep Penetration, wow you can hold breath longer. I only hold my breath to take the shot, not wait :/ Infact, i rarely even breath anymore i just shoot without it and still get the kill.
Sleight of hand replaces stopping power i think, not worth it - If your primary weapon expends its clip, switch to your pistol :/ Rather have stronger bullets than a slightly faster reload time.
Steady aim is only fun on the sniper rifles (lots of no scopes) but it doesn't even add a great effect to the guns. I can fire accurately from the hip without it, takes practice.
Also the average gamer probably doesn't know this but in ALL public servers your weapons and the sniper have a 'sway' bug.
Where you are aiming and where your bullets are landing are complietely different because of the bug, ever thought you had your sights on him but he lives? The sniper (when breath held) misses quite freqently because of the bug.
All of these things are fixed by third parties and make the game much more enjoyable.
Don't get me started on Hardcore, anyone can rack up high scores on that because it's a joke. Foot shot = Dead :/
edit: It has come to light that without a server running GV script it is possible to cheat with NO detection at all.
Hell, i'm going to post it here so that all the publics get ruined. Maybe IW will get of their arses and fix the biggest exploit in cod history, it has been in since 1.1.
pb_sv_cvar sv_cheats IN 1
Wack that in console and you can use any ingame built console cheat.
Fixed by the community before IW even started work on it.
My hatred for public servers are ongoing, IW don't care untill it affects their profits.

You sound like one of those spiteful kids who doesn't enjoy anything until they're the best at it.
e: On another note, does it take more hits to take down a guy using last stand in the first place? I swear they take a couple more shots (just like juggernaut) before they even go down to their "last stand" position...
