Second Chance Threads

[MoistPuss]

I don't know about you guys, but whenever I run SC I seem to die more, maybe it's psychological, maybe it's the fact I cant sit there like that, I kinda just want to kill myself and run around again. iunno, but that perk is boring.

edit, got it to pro and it's better, but still a lame perk.

I just had a thought.
When did the idea of second chance start? A lot of you would probably mention COD4, or COD: WAW.
And while these games partially developed this perk, it was never the beginning of it. It all started with the Medic Class of COD3.
However, this feature was utterly different from what we have now.

For starters, players were statically killed when rather than mortally wounded. Thus the points were given normally. If you wanted to be revived you had to call out, or wait patiently as yes, there was a delay limit before you spawned again. Another factor was how huge the maps were. Which meant that if you didn't want to spend the next minute or so walking back into the line of battle, you better call out your friend to pick you up. It was actually useful to be a medic. Like a Tactical Insertion. There wasn't a more generous class because the Medics put you right in to the game.

TreyArc, you want your medic so damn much?
Get off your ass and create bigger maps, like you used to. You know, like an actual battlefield. Not a map that is the size of my bedroom.
And install the original medic feature either as a perk, or an equipment. Delete Second Chance from the face of the Earth as it does no one any good.

one thing I dont understand is why dont SC users slap on the CZ with extended mags more often, oh man is that good in SC, you can make up for your error in aiming with more bullets, plus taking down multiple guys becomes soo much easier with less frequent reloads..

I never knew it worked like that, then again I haven't used SC once in BO. But I thought they always gave u the same standard pistol when you were knocked to SC, I didn't know if you had another pistol set-up equipped it just bumped you down to that one.

[MoistPuss]

yeah it does work like that, i've been going pistol only a bit and it sure is devastating having sc on. When you already have your pistol out, you can shoot as you are going down, the only thing stopping you when you go down with your primary in hand is the switch time.

Python in SC is the most annoying thing ever. Cause it has more damage, and chances are they had already damaged you in the firefight before. So now they are lying on the ground with a pistol that could potentially 1HK me, then shoot it while in invincible mode. Yay.

Exactly. Moist stop giving out tips aswell, we dont need any more fags using this perk.

I like what the patch did, but this game still suffers from players who choose to hide up in a building, kill everyone from their window, and when they finally get shot out of it, get revived and keep going, with their streaks intact and the person who killed them get's nothing. That is BROKEN. Battlefield made it completely fair, if you get revived, they still get their points for the kill.

Every single player has this perk on now, all of them. So I noob tube them, there's nothing easier or more satisfying, until they get revived and get attack dogs. That's just wrong. (I know, this belongs in the rant thread, but I can't find it)

SC is annoying.


And we havent even gotten the SC patch yet (PC)

Got idea from another post.

Would SC Pro be any more approved if they kept the same bleed out time and it took you as long to revive as it does to steal a care package?
