Recommendations for loadouts

Just started recently playing ghost and was wanting some advice on load outs. I like the smaller maps and prefer to run and gun. My favorite loadout now is the MSBS with fore grip and thermal scope. Perks are ready up, marathon, stalker, sitRep

By far my favorite class is:

Honey Badger w/ red dot & grip
No secondary/tactical/lethal
Perks are Dead Silence/Amplify/Quick Draw/Sitrep/Focus
Specialist: Slight of Hand/Scavenger (no 3rd perk to get specialist at 8 kills)
Specialist: Bonus: Off the Grid/Wiretap/Hardline



The footsteps are so incredibly loud in this game that running dead silence/amplify is almost a must.

Thanks for the info! I'll give it a try today

Lots of different load outs here: https://over30clan.forumotion.com/t10654-which-custom-load-out-works-best-for-you

As you play the game, you'll find what suits you best. Personally, I've found the AR's to be the way to go with this game. With Time To Kill so short, you want to be killing at range if possible, so it seems a little hard to get close enough to kill with SMGs and Shotties. Also, slow down and ADS as much as you can. First to hit usually wins each gunfight.

I agree with Walldogy

I personally am loving the Remington r5

My load outs depend on what Operation i need to finish, but i seem to always run Deadeye and stalker. The rest is just fill.

I play 99% HardCore so I run the Amplify perk, with Ready up.

Like i said earlier, i change it up, depending on what operations i need.

Currently I'm running Sitrep(Operation), VMR sight (operation), Thermobaric (operation), Ballistic vest(operation), Nightowl(operation)

Once i get those operations completed, then i will change them out

Guess that is why I'm sitting on 773 Squad Points....LOL

Combat Knife only...no perks...no nothing, just a man and his knife.

Touche. lol

Thanks guys for all the info

Btw srslampiece like the honey badger set up

There are really only three perks that I consider "must haves" in this game:  Dead Silence, Awareness, and Focus.  Unless I'm going for some weird specific loadout, I run those on every class.

My standard perk setup is Quickdraw, Dead Silence, Awareness, Focus, and Sit Rep.  The guns kill so damned fast in this game that first show accuracy is very important.  Quickdraw allows you to get up and on target faster.  

Sit rep can be swapped out for other perks and/or equipment.  I generally only do that if I'm running specialist, and my first specialist perk will be Sit Rep.  Those IEDs are too damned annoying to run anything else.

If I'm playing Cranked, I'll start with Deadeye, Dead Silence, Awareness, and Focus, since you get Quickdraw, Ready Up, Slight of Hand, Stalker, Marathon, and Agility once you get cranked.

As far as guns go, my top five are, in no particular order, Honey Badger, Remington R5, FAD, AK-12, and MTAR-X.

I'm loving the Honey Badger with grip and VMR sight. I've also started running incog a good bit to help keep the thermal sight campers from driving me completely insane.

I've tried most of the weapons, but I keep coming back to the Honey Badger. It's a solid gun, plus you get the free silencer without having to waste an attachment. I usually go with the grip and armor piercing ammo, but I like using the iron sights on guns.

I've been swapping out perks to do the Operations I have, but so far I like having Quick Draw and Dead Silence (for the obvious reasons). I'm trying to get kills with Ping for an operation...I think I'm up to 6, and those were instances where I lucked out and got a double kill.
