Until a few weeks ago I'm pretty sure that when you had the silencer equipped the game wouldn't announce to the other team that a flag/objective was being capped. (I tested this in a private match too)

This is also what was written on a MW2 wiki, but a I just realised that entry got removed recently.

Also now it seems to me as though if you have the silencer equipped it doesn't stop the announcer from letting the other team know that you are capping an objective any more.
But I'm sure there are people still capping flags without it alerting the other team...

What's everyone else's take on this?

The game is a buggy piece of crap, its only redeeming value is the vast amount of pubbie tears you can collect while doing anything at all in the game.

Getting a killstreak seems to be a chore these days so i want to ask, how the hell do you survive in this game? Hide in a corner?

What I use

Primary

FAL w/ Holo and silencer - Holographic adds damage believe it or not, making the gun a 2 hit kill with stopping power

ACR w/ Holo and silencer - No recoil + holographic adds range for all assault rifles(maybe wrong though)

Secondary
Spas12 with holo and grip - The new 1887 surprisingly enough. Range is damn brutal and usually takes 2 hits when far away.

Akimbo G18's - nuff said

Perks
Sleight of Hand or Scavenger Pro or Marthon Pro(knifing class)
Stopping Power or Lightweight(knifing class)
Commando Pro(knifing class), or Steady Aim

Equipment
Semtex
Stun Grenades

Flash are pointless unless you nail them point on, otherwise you can just walk out of the blast. Stun at least slows their aiming down.

Hide in a corner?

Learn the maps (specifically the spawn points) so you can run back and forth between spawn areas and hot-spots, racking up kills pretty quickly.

Don't run straight into heavy fighting areas from spawning.

Like Toilet says, use a setup that will kill things in 2 shots or less at most distances. Personally I use the FAMAS with a red dot sight, any shotgun + scavenger, stopping power, steady aim.

MW2 is more about camping than CoD4 (unless you're going to only knife people). Don't sit in one place for too long but there's no need to run around constantly unless you're already great with a stick/mouse. The assault rifles are better this time around and some of them have ridiculously low recoil which allows for easy long-range kills.

I haven't gotten the ACR unlocked but I think it'll be one of the classes I keep around when I do. It's probably the cheapest weapon in the game.

I haven't played MP in a couple days because I set off to beat the campaign on veteran (wasn't all that hard, to be honest, even on my PS3). But I've been using the silenced TAR-21 a lot recently. Same power as the SCAR but shoots faster and has a 30-round clip.

UMP45 silenced
USP or Deagle - doesn't matter since I always try to pick up another weapon since I don't have scavenger anymore

Semtex
Stun

Stopping Power Pro
Ninja Pro

-Marathon Pro - While I do miss my Scavenger perk, this easily makes up for it helping me cross dangerous areas faster, get into position faster, and get over obstacles faster which is usually when I died before. It also helps me get past some claymores.
-Stopping Power Pro - Helps make up for my silencer which I thought was useless at first but helps me take out multiple people easier.
-Ninja Pro - Helps stop heartbeat sensors which people love to rely on more than they should and having a quarter of the sound footsteps usually make is a nice bonus.

This class requires decent movement skills.

Stopping Power really doesn't do much for the UMP. Its two-shot range with SP is really short and it'll be a three-shot kill from outside that range regardless of SP or the silencer. Better to run Cold-Blooded with that setup since it'll then three shot at any distance.

So like i played this some more, last time i played it it was .180 now it's .182. And my hacked classes still work, multiple perks, primary weapons and 2 attachments. If only IW actually could make a game.

That's what I thought at first but it seems to make a big enough difference when taking people in close to medium range that it's worth it. I also tend to try and aim for the head so it's a 2 kill shot at any range then.

And there are still aimbots(expected in any game) and hacked servers as well. Pick your poison. I have deemed this game the most successful failure and it shows.
