Okay here goes, my first real "guide", caused by many retards on my team not having the knowledge to flank.

Wikipedia wrote:Flanking maneuver

In military tactics, a flanking maneuver, also called a flank attack, is an attack on the sides of an opposing force. If a flanking maneuver succeeds, the opposing force would be surrounded from two or more directions, which significantly reduces the maneuverability of the outflanked force and its ability to defend itself. A psychological advantage may also be present, as flank forces usually do not expect to be attacked.Infantry Ward took a lot of time to make maps with many paths and walkways, with ample flanking opportunities. No doubt these maps will have taken hours to think up and perfect, so the best tactics could be applied, instead of camping uselessness.

EQUIPMENT
You want power, you want accuracy, and you want it quiet. This is what I use.

Or, if you have to,

https://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa178/Funky_Finny/flankP90.png

The important thing is the perks, you want Bandolier so you can rack up the kills, UAV jammer to succesfully sneak up on enemy, and Dead Silence to.. uhh... Successfully sneak up on the enemy. You also want to keep the silencer so the enemy doesn't know where you're shooting from.

MAPS

I'll use BLUE for USMC and SAS and RED for OpFor and Spetsnaz and BLACK for any paths you should take on your own.

Okay let's start with Strike. On strike, the Opfor team start at the top left, and the USMC at bottom right, like so,

https://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa178/Funky_Finny/Strike-spawns.png

This will lead to first sightings of the enemy around about here,

https://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa178/Funky_Finny/Strike-first-sightings.png

Okay take your side to be USMC. 99% of retards people on CoD4 will sit there quite the thing dying and getting the odd kill.
Instead of being a complete and utter BERK and shooting at the enemy across the courtyard as they pop their heads around, take one of these paths, and catch them with their pants down.

https://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa178/Funky_Finny/strike-attack.png

This works where ever the two teams meet, there is almost always a way around the side, to attack their exposed side, while they're all facing the wrong way.

Let's move onto Vacant.

The spawns are as such:

https://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa178/Funky_Finny/vacant-spawn.png

Usually the game goes like this:

https://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa178/Funky_Finny/vacant-first-sightings.png

So instead of staying and dying lots, move like this:

https://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa178/Funky_Finny/vacant-attack.png

Don't take the first door, as you are exposed to your right whilst running past the corridor blocked by filing cabinets.

To sum up...

Don't sit and camp shooting in the direction the enemy is coming from. You'll die a lot more, and get less kills. Instead, head in a different direction, moving from cover to cover, sneak up beside/behind the enemy, and stick many a silenced shot into their arse. Works everytime.

We're going to win the battle, comrads!!

Follow these simple guidelines and you'll get scores like this in no time at all.
(My team were low rank, so they sat there doing nothing whilst I claimed all the kills. Also, this is my second account, I've got 55 already)

rofl @ the pings on that last screenshot antilag ftl

The real secret to cod4 is forward key pressed down + submachine gun + left click held down. With this secret technique you can go 150-10 on every map, even the linear ones that give little room for flanking a la bog/wetwork/crossfire.

Uhh...think you should tone it down a notch with the Red Tiger?  Digital works best IMO.

Dead Silence is unnecessary unless you're playing against:
A) a team that actually knows how to listen
B) a team of 6 or less on a large map

That's pretty much my "Sneaky Assault" kit, but I use Sleight of Hand and Deep Impact instead.

Nice guide.

It only really works on smaller servers though, since players are all over the place with 24 players and up.

Yeah, while flanking in games is fun, CoD4 is too fast paced to do any flanking.

Why the hell are you using a Deagle in a stealth kit.

Silenced USP ftw.

Also, if i want to stealth i use:

Silenced MP5
Silenced USP
3x Special
UAV Jammer
Extreme Conditioning (You can flank from the start of the round waaay faster)

Silenced P90

3x Stun Grenades
UAV Jammer
Steady Aim



You lose range with the silenced weapons, so steady aim is useful when your in close quaters combat. Usually you can then take out snipers and spawn kill pretty easily once you get behind enemy lines. The only problem you'll ever face is avoiding your own airstrikes cause your in the prime location to drop one.

P90's handy, cos you don't have to reload all the fucking time.

But i use the MP5. Don't know why, just feels better for me.


Or the Uzi, for full on running spraying - total lulz.

And why not? There seems to be a reason the OP has the advice and your post doesn't.

Decent guide.... just letting you know you said "Infantry Ward" instead of "infinity ward" deliberate or not i dunno just my OCD coming into play.

Also with  vacant you will find that wont work on big servers... because you have at least 5 people on each team "flanking" all this does is open up the brutal slaughter in the warehouse.

I prefer the cannon fodder approach for the enemy teams. Makes it much easier to whirl a wall of M249 in their direction.

Meh, I was gonna put silenced pistol in, but I barely use pistol. Not when you've got Bandolier, you don't need your pistol.

I just hang around the back and let the tards nade each other in the same places, and then start going in properly and try and mop up the survivors

The game is so much harder on the PS3

I still get my ass handed to me half the time. Jumping in after the game was released 5 months ago really opens one to getting destroyed by those that know all the maps and have figured out how to use most guns.

Plus, fuckin just about everyone is at least Prestige x1, with many people being a couple levels above that.
