I thought I would right down some of my tips & tricks - but I was hoping to create a good thread with other player's ideas.
MP40 Tip/Tricks
MP40 Gun - I tend to use the MP40 almost all the time. Here are the reasons.
1. It is a one-shot kill across the entire map (body shot) - if they don't have juggernot on - most people don't juggernot.
2. The silencer does NOT affect this and thus allows you to shoot silently.
3. It allows you to move quicker than other weapons.
4. It can be used in bursts in CQB.
The trick to the MP40 is firing off the single shot. It is a dead-on-aim and for a single shot it does enough damage to take a player out clear across the map. It does take lots of practice to fire off one shot at a time, but once you get use to it - you don't have to worry about hosing down the player with bullets - with the typical "spray-n-pray" method many use with SMGs. Most people don't like the MP40 because of the big kick and thus "spray-n-pray" is a massive scatter shot. The other SMGs are better for the "spray-n-pray". I find the MP40 less of an SMG and more of a SBR because of the accuracy and power.
I usually team this up with Stopping Power and Deep Impact.
Fast: Since we can't run, being able to move fast is important and the MP40 lets you do that.
Snipe: You can also snipe across the map with it - using open sights. This is hard because you have to get your eyes use to long distance movement. Most snipers don't know how to stay still. Single shots - remember.
Ninja: I like to add the silencer because I have noticed on more than one occasion coming upon multiple contacts and being able to take them all out without them hearing me fire. This is usually when I hit a streak - I get behind enemy lines and can start taking them out and they don't even hear me.
I am certainly not a great player - but I have noticed an improvement in my score as well as my K/D ratio and streaks when playing with the MP40 using these tactics, tricks, and tips.
