Isn't it odd how only the newer or lower-skilled players use Last Stand and Martyrdom?

If you only plan on dying 2 or 3 times, it's a waste of perk.Lucien wrote:

People don't use what they like, people use what they feel they NEED to use. Let's look at some facts:HaxyQ wrote:
Isnt it odd that people still use sniper? (joke)
People use what they like. I use m4/last stand myself, and it works perfect. Youre only whining because these guys are placed above you on the score board. If it is so damn "good", why not use them yourself? And if they suck, too bad for the people who use them. Stop complaining, it only shows that you just got ownded by these perks.
Oh, and Ive been playing this game since release, so dont call me new or low-skilled. I bet im better than you.
Mmm does this really deserve a thread? Wow I should start counting how many of these type threads there are in the CoD4 section.Lucien wrote:

1) you are sacrificing superior perks, perks that improve your ability to play WITHOUT YOU LOSING, such as stopping power, steady aim, deep impact, sleight of hand, and extreme conditioning.
2) you rely on losing a fight to use your perk. If you are good at this game you do not die as often, so your perk automatically becomes less useful. You depend on losing fights and getting a small chance instead of depending on superior skill
3) "i've been playing this game since release" means nothing. Your choice of words and inability to state your skill properly make it clear that you are an average player. Don't debate this: I've seen it more than enough times in BF2.
4) Over time I have observed that martyrdom and last stand users are consistently at the bottom of the scoreboard, with very few exceptions
5) Over time I have noticed that my place on the scoreboard is consistently in the top few players, and that of players who use their kit to their advantage instead of disadvantage is also much higher.
6) Not a single league or ladder player uses martyrdom or last stand with any kind of seriousness
7) The only reason these perks work at all is because you force others to take a chance. They can't know that you're a martyrdom or last stand user before they kill you, so they're forced to either make sure they wont run over a nade when they use your dead body as cover and keep aiming at you incase you survive death, or to carry on fighting. Not every player is going to keep that small chance in mind so he moves on: this is why you win. Not your superior skill.
Overwhelming? I'm sure you'll find a way to justify it to yourself. It's that weakness that is present in almost every player that stops them from becoming truly good at anything.

People who use stopping power are noobs, because they can't get headshots.nukchebi0 wrote:
I think you are a n00b for using Sleight of Hand, because obviously you only need to worry about reloading so frequently if you waste ammo by spraying.

People who use Iron Lungs are noobs, because they need that much time to snipe.
People who use Bandolier are noobs, because they need more ammo to kill people.
People who use perks are noobs, because they're noobs.
People who use guns are noobs, because real men use knives.
And real men cut their own head off with sticks instead of knives, so pointless threads like these won´t pop up.
Let's all just knife stick each other.

For once i agree with you. Play Tactical Servers S & D and its not allowed anyway as Marty = massive Tk's. Some do allow last stand but iv yet to see any good player ever use it.Lucien wrote:

last stand makes the person invincible for a while, while on their screen they are on the ground shooting people (often with a deagle, which on hardcore is one of the strongest guns...)HaxyQ wrote:
Lucien, I can say Im placed 1st about 80-90% of all the rounds. (With last stand)
I have never been killed by last stand, because its only one bullet that needs to hit, to kill him. If you find that hard, the you are low-skilled yourself.
Martyrdom often killed me when I started playing this game, but you know what? I adapted. Now when I kill somone, I dont go jumping on the body, I either wait until the nade goes off, or walk around the dead guy. Also, if it is not hardcore, youre also so lucky that you have a nade indicator. Use it!
I find last stand useful, because it often happends that Im one kill away for air strike/heli, so then the last stand is good to have.
If this is how you complain about those perks, then all the perks can be complained about. (Like DefCon did)
Mention a perk that is not for low-skilled players, and Ill say what makes it "noob".
