Thoughts on the FAD

So, I broke this out last night and have to say, I kind of like it. Through my first 2 prestiges I have been exclusive to shotguns and SMG. The FAD class might stick around for a while.

Fucking Atrocious Device

THAT IS ALL!

Would have to agree with Vegas. This prestige I have actually used the M4A1 for my Assult rifle of choice. I will say I think this is one of the best assult rifles. I can not believe it is the first gone in it's class.

Hey if you can kill pixel people with the FAD more power to you. Not everyone uses the same gun.

Just giving you guys a hard time. I think trying different guns makes my experience better. Playing with the same gun over and over gets a little monotonous.

Like EVERYONE running with the troll gun FMG Akimos as their primary.

Dont Hate it EMBRACE IT!

Not hating, I run them too......sometimes, when I'm not laughing at the Javelin kills I get.

I should run the Javelin more. Rif is a fucking savage with the Javelin.

I need to watch Rif play anytime I shot the Javalin, it blows up on the roof above the guy I was shooting it at or it tells me to close for lock on. WTF

Yeah, it just fun launching one into the air and 5 secs later.....multi-kill. There are some good videos below to help with dom opening routes.

I used a token on it for the sole reason that it was such a late unlock, you'd never use it otherwise. Dumb decision. After further review, it is one of the most ineffective guns in the game. 4 shot kill to the torso, whereas all other ARs are 3 or less (MK14=2)

Even if you use it like an smg because of the increased mobility, it still is outclassed by the other SMGs in shots to kill.

I've leveled it all the way up and had some good games with it, but statistically speaking, it is crap.

I like it i ran it religiously for about 3 weeks. It may take 4 shots to kill but they get there pretty effin fast. And the Mag size is a lil bonus 40-RM

I wasted a token on this gun unfortunetely, now I cant unlock the Striker AND MK14

I used a token on it early. Used it exclusively for one prestige (about how long it takes me to get good with a gun).

Went away from it next prestige and went with MK14.

Now that I am through I have one class with it. I use it more defensively.

It is good for long shots that the MP7 has trouble with.

Like most guns, until you level it up to get attachments it is not a lot of fun.

The FAD is an amazing gun if you have a solid four bar connection. It kills extremely fast if all your bullets count and don't end up disappearing in Lagtopia. If you're lagging, the gun doesn't fire bullets so much as it fires polite suggestions that your enemy should die.

.... yep ive felt that before

I love the FAD - used a token on it, and never regretted it.

It was my weapon of choice when I was kicking back and defending the B flag. Slap the silencer and extended mags on that baby, together with Marksman Pro, and you'll seem them coming well before they see you. My FAD was the cause of many a rage mic.

Ive grown to love this gun, i used my first token on it and couldnt stand the damn thing then... i started useing it this prestige (9) and ive gotta say all around its the best gun in the game... ive got it set up on 5 classes now with all diferent perks, attachments ect.

Its great at long range, mid range, and unlike other ARs its sweet at hip fireing! The cons have already been stated but all guns have cons so it just has to be the right gun for your play style...

My fav. loadout:
FAD w/ red dot and impact
Stinger
Blind eye pro
Hardline pro
Steady aim pro

Bobloblaw did a review. Placed it seventh out of the assault rifles
