im such a noob at this game.  i get my fair share of kills and streaks once in a while, but usually i get owned the whole round... more often than not.  what am i doing wrong?  i need pro tips from you diehard pc players.  post vids if you got em, or any helpful strategies.  im sick of dying all the time, and im sure there are others who would find your input helpful.

btw, i usually go into battle with a g36c, red dot, 3 frags, stopping power, deep impact, and a stun grenade.  help me!

Play hardcore mode, if you're the type of player who always sees people first, and shoots first but always ends up dying (like me). You'll love hardcore mode as it usually means people will drop before they get a chance to do their typical FPS video game shit (strafing, jumping, running etc) and kill you.

Also play hardcore mode with stopping power as a perk. Just to make sure people die extra fast.

use a silencer, especially on a G36

Try the M4 w/silencer/UAV jammer/deep impact

or

Switch out the M$ with the AK or G36

I only play hardcore and after getting my ass whipped for a couple days I got the hang of it.

Or do killhouse with SAW/reddot/overkill/M60/deepimpact, and you can find a good spot and go 67/12/18 with a 37 kill streak.

Or just bind the secondary fire key to the mousewheel so you just have to scroll once for one shot, even on automatic rifles.

I've outsniped snipers with an MP5 doing that.

Practice practice and more practice. No matter how much advice you get given, it won't make much difference if you don't know every map like the back of your hand. Takes a few hours to get it, but it comes with time. I would suggest P90 with faster shooting and steady aim to start.

(My personal choice is MP5 with stopping power steady aim)

Then once you can hold your own in 1 v 1 close combat, get an ak47 with stopping power and steady aim.

All these with Bandolier and stun grenade I think is best. Each to their own though, you might own people with the UZI for all I know.

Everyone starts of rubbish, it's natural. Just spend time playing a Free For All server (Free Porn for all is my fave... non hardcore one) This server does all the maps and most people that play are noobs. With some pretty good players mixed in.

Just practice ALOT! and your sorted. Don't give up when your getting owned.

m21+UAV jammer+silenced usp=pwn

I went 67-1 with it with a 58 killstreak on of all places "wetwork". Piece of shit chopper killed me near the end of the game...

But if you want assault rifles go with the AK. It does a shit load of damage but dont put on a rds. It lowers damage. A stock AK with no attachments is a one hit kill on Hardcore so dont use stopping power...go with uav jammer or double tap (for great justice)

So,
AK 47
Pistol of your choice
Bandolier or if you don't live long enough, anything else
DT, UAV jammer, Sleigh of hand
Steady Aim<-This is a must for me. Hip Accuracy is improved alot so you dont have to aim down the sight. On the MP5 it becomes a rape machine

And if you want, try using c4 for the lulz on crash. Toss'em into the window, detonate, laugh.

Keep moving. If you stop to look around, you're bound to get shot.
Move from cover to cover. Don't stand in the open for too long.
If you have to get somewhere, find the quickest way, and move fast. Stay as close to your teammates as possible, and don't wander into enemy grounds.
Pick a good weapon selection. There are many combos, but you have to find the best one to suit you.
Finally, stop worrying about getting your ass kicked and focus on kicking other peoples asses.

Dont camp move from cover to cover instead and ditch the g36c. That gun is pure trash. Shoots slower than an m4 while doing the same damage. Fire in bursts unless up close. Listen to your surroundings.

Guns:
AK47 or M4
AK74u or MP5
Bolt action sniper

Stick with those, unless you are going for the gold guns. While a p90 with steady aim may make killing easier, that combo will not improve your aim just your bullet spamming (steady aim only applies while shooting from the hip).

Hardcore + M4 w/ RDS + Bandolier + Sleight of Hand + Last Stand. Rack up tons of kills!
On non-hardcore, mini-uzi w/ silencer + stopping power + steady aim.
For sniping, M21 (the semi-auto one before SVD) w/ ACOG scope + stopping power + deep impact + bandolier. Pure amazement, esp. on hardcore. Just spam through walls if you think someone's there, and in fact just spam everywhere.

Basically just play around with perks and guns until you find the combination that works best for you.

On HC:

G3

Bandolier
SoH/UAV Jammer
Last Stand

Nothing argues with that. Last Stand helps you get revenge, and on HC, it is particularily effective because pistols kill more easily.

Ok, your trying too hard. The way i stopped getting owned was to take care, use your surroundings, pick your moves, learn the maps. If you learn to stop throwing yourself into firefights and concentrate on staying alive you will instantly start turning that - into a + KDR and you'll be surprised that you are usually the top killer on your team.

Another great tip is to throw your pistol away at the 1st opportunity and collect a proper gun off the nearest corpse so if you get into a fight and empty your magazine you can quickly switch for the coup de grace, or if you grab a sniper rifle or shotty your covered depending on what your doing. It's a way of having the overkill perk for free and that's gotta be a boon

the thing i hate most about cod4 is its a game made to jump around and just spray, it has been like this since the cod with people jumping around and hsting with kar98s (like me). I don't like to sit in a corner and shoot everybody who is moving.
heck i rush even with a R700 shooting no scope.
thats no hit every time, but still its fun trying to hit someone medium range with no scope,.

Use all the guns one at a time, find which one suits u the best and then use it... make ur classes properly eg. i have a Rush/assault class (P90+AK+GLA), a sniper class, stealth class, heavy fire class, etc etc. customise for u. next find 3 maps that u really like. and know them like the back of ur hand. then pwn noobs like u used to be

thanks 2 all for the tips... after 2 days of non-stop playing, i am definitely getting better.  there are a few things i've learned along the way.

1) this is not, will not, and can not ever be in any way bf2.  rambo = death

2) tactical movement (i.e. checking around corners, flashbanging rooms) will greatly increase your kills.

3) hardcore is still really hard, but oh so fucking satisfying when you own someone over and over again.

i've learned the nuances of a few maps so far... i like creek, countdown, and bloc.  shipment is gay, and district is tough when you have a full server.  cod4 is a kickass game, agree?

This game depends on which game mode you play, you wana be rambo then TDM is for you, but for me the only game to play Hardcore S&D. I only play on tactical servers so no nades for 20 seconds, always have to use sights, no spamming walls smoke and so on. It takes skill to play that way and is just the way it should be played.

You want tips,

Its each to there own, what gun you someone else says is the best may not suit you. So firstly find what gun your good with.
Get to know the map, once you know where people go to hide you always get kills there.
Take your time, running around will get you killed quicker and make you spend more time dead then alive.

To prove i know what im on about, all these are hardcore S&D only:
