i'd like to hear peoples opinion on FFA

I've really only started playing FFA until BO2, and i'm wondering what other people think about it. I've decided that if no one is on from the 30, it's all i will play. Spawns are absolutely terrible, but i think they even out by the end of the game. My sensitivity went from 5 in MW3 to 10 in BO2, i'm not sure why but quick response is huge in FFA.

Also if any of you guys played FFA in past CoD's which is your favorite and why?

I think FFA is fun but everytime I play it I get the feeling that everyone in the lobby is trying to kill me. Could just be me being paranoid not for sure though.

FFA are tougher than most other game modes. Basically your all alone, can't count on anyone to help you win. The Trick is to learn the spawn points and build up killstreaks that help you rack up kills fast. I like to patrol an area, basically keep a corner of the map myself locked down. From there learn from what points my enemies are spawing and kill as many as possible as fast as you can. pick killstreaks that fit your level of play.

Like I said it is very hard game mode at first but like most game modes once you play it enough to get comfortable with it, you will learn the tricks to win. hope that helps

Your right about spawns, Learning them is key!! I think I've got about 20 hours into FFA with a 1.7 W/L. I'm really having Fun with it.

Just keep at it. What killsteaks are you running? I think the UAV is essential unless your a sound buff.

i was running uav/hunter/lightening strike. until i used the sentry and it gave me a win from a nasty deficit, it gave me 10 kills and a 1st place win.

Did you just say FFA??? FFA is my JAM!! I loved FFA in MW3 and I never like to gloat but I beasted in that game mode. The last two months of the game I got my 23 moabs all in FFA. Fucking LOVED it.

Black ops 2 FFA sucks ass LOL. I don't know why I don't like it but I can't do shit.

But yes, FFA is all about know the spawns, manipulating the spawns, and paroling an area.
Here's where I ended up...

I've played it a decent amount, I like it. I have my setup to include two bouncing bettys and it's not unusual for me to get 10 kills with those alone. I tend to play the safe tactical game, not running around like an idiot lol.

In the one or two games I played, I was either raped by campers, area campers, quick scope snipers or shotty's or had to listen to little kids scream down the headset, not my game type at all really cant stand it, I don't even know why I am posting in here

I play FFA if I am not running with 30's. I generally use the time to level up some weapons. I'd have to agree with the others about learning the spawns. In comparison to Domination rooms I would say the skill level in FFA is a notch or two behind, though I suspect there is some experimenting going on. Someone brought up how much the two teams uniforms look alike in party chat the other night so I guess FFA fixes that.

Not much for FFA fan. Just dont see the point. If you are to play it I would imagine patrolling a area with two chokepoints would be your best bet for most kills or like one guy said hold down one side with a sentry gun and watch the other. Run silencer because most people will be watchin for the red dots on the heads up display. I would imagine Black ops 2 FFA is not as good as MW3 because there is no specialist killstreak that allows you to become a super soldier when you have all the perks its more on a level playing field I guess you could say on black ops 2

When I first started playing FPS (i.e. COD4) FFA is all I would play. I was so terrible at the game that I didn't want to bring down a team.

So, essentially, i learned how to play COD in FFA matches. I still like it a bit if I'm going to:
a) level up a gun - you get so many kills in FFA that it makes weapon leveling fast
b) try some random class set-up that I'm just doing for lolz

The only real trick to doing well at FFA is knowing the spawns and how to manipulate them. Once you have that figured out, then it's just a matter of slicing through those fools like butter.

Can't say I'm a huge fan of FFA in BO2...mainly b/c you can't hear footsteps for sh*t. Soundwhoring in FFA is a HUGE advantage...or at least it used to be.

ffa is my favorite game mode...so far not too bad in bo2, but the spawns do suck...i just love the fact that i see something move...i shoot at it...and it dies

I'm new to the FFA recently (well since GoldenEye lol). I've been using for my diamond camo quest for special weapons. Much easier to just run around crazy and knife anyone.
