2. Since I was tired of getting owned by the shotguns in this game, I decided to join them and start using them since I almost exclusively play objective games. Anyone have a build that they found works best with shotguns? Attachments that are the best, and perks that help the most? Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

My loadout for the first shotgun is:

Attachments: Long Barrel + Fast Mag

Tier 1 Perk: Lightweight
Tier 2 Perk: Coldblooded
Tier 3 Perk: Extreme Conditioning + Tactical Mask

Emp (2x)

I wish I could equip 2 different equipment like an Emp + Flash or any other combination instead of two of the same thing.

I bought the Asus RT-N65U. I thought it was just a slight upgrade from the RT-N56U but there is a bit more to it.

Anyway, I got it installed and the QoS set up. NAT was open on both Xbox's!! What I noticed was the Blops 2 multiplayer loading screen came up about 10 seconds faster than it did on my old router (Dlink DIR-825). The software revision number popped up in about 3-4 seconds vs the usual 10-12.

Play was very nice both alone and with a group. Even with the laggy lobbies we kept getting into, it seemed they were affected as much as me. Though I will say as the night progressed, they did get worse. That group was eastern Pennsylvania to Virginia. With me being in illinois, and with my old router, the connection would have been worse.

After about 21:30 I got out of the group and had Mrs. join. It was nice. Normally we take a huge performance hit. One of us lags very bad. the other is usually OK. We both were in a decent lobby and it went very well. At about 22:15 I got out as the lobbies were starting to get terribly laggy. I even went so far as to hook an Xbox to the modem itself. It was still terrible easily a half sec delay. guys would magically appear and you would be dead no shots even heard.

I chalked it up to the matchmaking at that time frame and will try again tonight. Overall, if you are looking for a great gaming router, the Asus black Diamond series is fantastic!!

And yes BLOPS was horrible last night. I cannot tell you how many times I was a red bar last night. I finally gave it up as it just wasn't worth the hassle.

Sure I initially attributed it to Lizard and the group I was joined with. but even after I got out of that group, who by the way that one kid jram is freaken ridiculous ranked like in the stupid 600's with Conman's god'd god's internet connection, it just kept getting worse. Looked like Mrs. picked the wrong time to start playing. :eek:

Nothing like running from one side of the map to the other and having the spawns flip yet again hahahahaha. I'll tell ya though, after you left I started rocking his class he told me about the other night. I'm a big fan, was scoring much higher after I switched to that.

And last night was the WORST lag issues I have ever had with this game (or any COD game). No clue what the deal was - me, my internet, the world, the game, the servers, MS Live, or I should have been playing standing on one leg wearing top hat in a diaper or something to get s**t to work. Like I said I gave up.

What class is this?

I pretty much only run 2-3 classes any more. the one I like best is Peacekeeper with laser, perk 1 greed (ghost/lightweight), no perk 2, perk3 greed (Dexterity/Engineer), C4, Blackhat. The speed this gives between the lightweight and dexterity to get my gun up quick is a life saver. Snatching care packages from a distance, seeing where enemies are camping, and staying off radar are all nice too. The other class is my anti-camper class with type25, noobtube, smaw, frag, scavenger, fast hands, etc. And I keep one class for anti-air support.
