Yeah true, but also you gotta consider than getting killed loads isn't that fun, and if they are good at gears then they will enjoy it

I bet you are one of them people who is good at everything

i wasnt particulary good at call of duty when i first started

i was just as bad as everyone else when they started, but i hate losing and not being good at things, so when i cant do something i try 10 times harder to get good at it

you dont get good at things over night

it took me a while to get to a level i am comfortable with

their is always someone better than you at most things, so i dont get to annoyed when i get killed

call of duty is a lot of trial and error to start off with

everyone plays to a different style and your styles dictate what guns and weapons you should use

for instance mart likes the m60 and the m16 which are meduin to long range weapons, which shows his style is to take a step back from the carnage and pick people off from further away

where as i am totally oposite to him, i hate the m60 and that style of play, i would fail like a level 1 if i played like him, i like to get right into the thick of the action and do the unexpected, thats why i like close range weapons and silencers so no-one knows where i am or what im doing
if mart tried to play like that he would also probably fail

thats why i think having a choice of weapon classes is one of the best things about the game, it allows everyone to play there own personal style and use their own preferences

You WILL get killed many times when you start but when you get to about lv40 or over then you start to get the hang of things. I love the P90 with A-cog.

If you mean losing XP - no you don't

If you lose, you get fewer bonus XP than if you won, which means you level up slower

Your Leaderboard stats will be affected as well, but as these are ratios, losing will merely effect your ratio

So as you say, even if you lose every game you ever play, you will still be able to get to level 55 and prestige 10 times

that used to be the case, but ive just discovered the ak74 and p90. ive introduced these to my arsenal now. i dont use the m60 or m16 on maps like vacant or wetwork anymore. i use the smg now instead. the m16 is still my fave though and is absoluty lethal on crossfire, downpour, overgrown and bloc

No they are exclusive to 360 for 21 days.
