Never liked select fire on any weapon. Always makes them overall worse. Tbh the only time I really used it was with swat-556 because of how stupidly high the firerate was.
@@vincentmartineau2006 yeah select fire tanks the range of any weapon you put it on, i don't think there was a weapon where it was objectively more viable with it
Here I am, looking at all these people's comments talking about their M8A1 classes. And they're all generally the same. "Reflex Sight + Stock" or "Reflex Sight + Quickdraw Handle", etc. How about something new, that actually works? Primary Weapon: M8A1 Attachments: ACOG Sight, Laser Sight, Select Fire Secondary Weapon: Pistol of your choice Attachment: *Attachment of your choice; choose over Lethal/Tactical Wildcard: Primary Gunfighter Perk Tier 1: Flak Jacket Perk Tier 2: Toughness Perk Tier 3: Dexterity Lethal: *Choose over sidearm attachment Tactical: *Choose over sidearm attachment It sounds weird, doesn't it? An ACOG Sight on the M8A1? With a Laser Sight? Kosetsa, what are you thinking? Said a guy in the lobby. Believe it or not, this class actually works really well. Let's look over it. The ACOG Sight is surprisingly effective with this weapon. My preferred reticule was Ranger Drop. The recoil settles after before you can fire again with a burst, so long-range combat is definitely an option. And it doesn't hinder you in CQC, either. But that's where the next two attachments come into play. The Laser Sight tightens up that hipfire spread of yours, specifically for CQC. Finally, Select Fire will permit full-auto with the M8A1, also for CQC purposes. This combination of attachments on this weapon takes discipline, unless you're good on actually utilizing the ACOG Sight and Select Fire for the right environments. The sidearm of your choice can also aid you in CQC, or when you run out of bullets during an engagement. Mine was the Tac-45 with the Long Barrel. Flak Jacket was my choice here, and it is a very straightforward Perk selection for an aggressive style of play - or a defensive one. It's your preference, though. The Tier 1 of Perks don't impact this class greatly. Next up is Toughness, which is also very straightforward and equally useful, if not more. Staying on target is very important, especially with a burst-fire rifle with an ACOG Sight. It is less critical in CQC, as Select Fire and the Laser Sight can take over that. You can also swap out Toughness for Scavenger if you're confident in your accuracy. Scavenger will make sure you never run dry, and that is one of this set-up's weaknesses: no resupplies. As for the final Perk, Dexterity is again for the aggressive play, speeding up your aim time after sprinting. Getting the first shot on your opponent usually ends in your favor, unless you have poor accuracy or you're facing a quickscoper/shotgunner. Finally, if you don't want an attachment on your sidearm, you can choose a Lethal or Tactical equipment instead. I rarely use equipment, so I chose the attachment option. And that's it. Try this class out, and see if you like it.
M8A1 Stock | Fast Mag | Hybrid Optic Flak Jacket Scavenger Engineer EMP Grenade x2 --- Primary Gunfighter Works perfectly fine for me as a sort of 'does everything alright at once' class. EMP nades are the bane of everyone's existence because barely anyone runs Hard Wired outside of a class specifically for anti- EMP Systems (although you could sacrifice one for SMAW/FHJ if you /really/ wanted to, the ability to shoot down (C)UAVs is much more beneficial to the team in my opinion) and are basically free points when thrown into gunfights you're not entering due to the huge splash range, the reflex/ACOG combination keeps things relevant at mid and long ranges, and you never run out of ammo or grenades to throw due to Scavenger. Engineer goes well with equipment destruction (Destroying deployed Sentries and Guardians and immobilising AGRs instantly is priceless) The M8 was my first prestige unlock and and I don't regret it at all it's been a real m8
I know this is subjective, but when trying to get Gold for this weapon, I wound up using a Red Dot Sight for easier headshots and struggled getting the double kills and bloodthirsties with this until I unlocked Select Fire. I feel like the M8 is better when fired fully automatic, but it's pretty solid otherwise without it.
On the range graph, far left is close range, and far right is long range. On the far left, the bar is green because it has the best damage at that range. In the middle, it's yellow because it starts to drop it's damage over range. When it's at the far right and red, it's at the worst amount of damage it can do because the gun is firing at long range.
It was so satisfying when the video buffered and Ahoy was aiming down sights, because the buffering loading swirlly circle was the exact same size as the rear aperature on the M8A1... For once, I was glad I lived in an obsolete corner of the UK where some people still have Dial up modems
I'd be sooo happy if you did hardcore mode weapons guides.... Hardcore may seem WAY harder, but once you're used to it, you will not wanna play core...
Hardcore mode isn't hard or challenging, you simply die in 1 to 2 shots which makes some guns incredibly overpowered and others become basically worthless, the guns aren't weren't balanced for hardcore mode.
Realistic? a game is not Realistic dude just saying You still respawn at the end of an Search and Destroy round and a Handgun killing you in 1 shot Realistic? NO
scarheavyfox Not like higher difficulties in CoD change anything. You take more damage which means you spend more time lying in the dirt, no skill required, just patience.
You kill faster, but you forget you GET killed faster. Everything kills you faster. You have to avoid camping or a grenade from afar will kill you from 15m away. And I said "Most realistic" not "It's realistic" As realistic as a game can be. What, you think I don't know it's a game?
I'm not sure if the G3 was ever in service, but I can tell you that pretty much any gun that was in service in the american military did receive an M designation. Even larger weapons such as artillery/flak cannons and the minigun.
I love all of the guides, but I have to say that this particular loadout has been the most successful for me. In the past ten games my kd haven't dropped below 4.0. Thank you for this one.
Hey stu, here's an idea: Why not do a perk guide for COD: Ghosts? You see, there are A LOT of perks on the game, and many returning or new ones, that people may not be 100% sure of what they're all about. Like your attachment guide, you could alternate between a weapon and a perk guide, and if 35 perks just aren't enough to fill up the space between all weapons, maybe do an attachment one
M8A1 Red Dot/Stock/Quickdraw Lightweight Toughness/Scavenger Dexterity Wildcards: Primary Gunfighter/ Perk Greed 2 Pretty Fun Class To Use. Its Pretty Sweaty Though XD
The Chicom CQB SMG is unusual in that it's burst fire unless you put select fire on it which makes it full auto, as with all the other burst fire weapons in-game.
According to the us nomenclature X means that it is on pre-production giving the fact that there is no X it means the weapon exited that phase and went full production also it has an A1 which means Alteration 1 so it was so succesful that they creadted an alternative variant.
Pros use red dot, stock and quickdraw. Stock may seem stupid to some, but a good player will strafe upon immediate enemy contact, usually jumping (scuff or not) at the same time. Trying to shoot someone who is jumping sideways so fast is difficult.
***** Wow,take it easy man, I am not an expert and this is not the army,is just a video game. I guess I will call them AR forever anyway,but is good to know more.
1:12 i dont agree with you as it dosent jam like the m4 or th FN scar in the tests and after knowing the problem with the gun HK improved but the contarct that was used was for the rifle was the XM29 which the xm8 was part of the rifle but was never a part of it for the US army command
i like this guy cuz everyone else will just put toughness on every class and say its the most overpowered perk in the game, but this guy actually explains why
Stu, which is your favourite weapon from each tier in BOII? Favourite original map, favourite DLC map? Will you do a combat record video on Ahoy Xbox when you're done with weapon guides?
Epic closing pun! Also the class is one of the best so far. You can also swap Ghost out for Lightweight and Silencer out for Stock, and you have a very mobile "tank" class.
Usually I can't even use an assault rifle without the Stock attachment but the M8 seems to be more accurate without it. I get a lot more 1- or 2-burst kills without the Stock. Just Quickdraw is enough to make this gun into a beast.
lol gotta admit that was a good pun at the end Ahoy. Very good. i love your set up for the KSG and the MTAR. but i made this my stealth with out tac and 2 perk 3s. my build was this Attach: Silencer, Quickdraw Grip Perk1- Ghost Perk2- Cold Blood, Toughness Perk3- Dex Secondary - Tac 45 and thats it.
Hi stu, did you ever had jupiler beer? Its a beer from belgium made in a small town called Jupile. Jupiler is very populair in belgium and in the netherlands, espacialy by the younger people. Keep up the good work!
I really recommend a red dot on this gun. Although the iron sights are okay, your shots will be way more precise with a red dot. Plus, do not play it with suppressor due to the range penalty. If you are a freakin' "strafer" like me, put stock on it. Unfortunately, I had some nuclear fails with this gun, but it wasn't the gun's fault ;)
Stu, Have you ever thought of doing any "live" gameplay of BO2? Because it would be awesome to hear you go off like in your Syndicate final boss gameplay.
Hey Stu, a couple of questions about burst weapons: 1. Now that you've done all of the burst weapons in Black Ops II, which is your favorite? The SWAT-556 or the MA81? Or would you even pick the Chicom CQB or the B23R over the burst ARs? 2. Which is your favorite burst weapon out of all COD games? My personal favorite is the M16 from COD4, but I thought the Type 95 from MW3 was pretty good too.
kinda of does, except for the absence of a bullpup design, and there are still a couple of weapons that feature a handle on top, a stock ar-15, many chineese weapons, the famas and so on
This is my setup - Reflex and Stock. (It's hard to move which shooting because of the burst) - B234 FMJ - C4 - Tactical or Flash - Hardline - Scavenger or Fast Hands
Hey Stu, when your Black Ops 2 series is over, are you going to continue the Game Over Series on your RetroAhoy Channel? Some really nice Games for that would be Gran Turismo, Pokemon, Mortal Kombat, and more :)
Stu you should really make a video on tips and tricks! You know, just stuff that will really help people become better players, cause you sure know how to play!
90 percent of your footage is the iron sights and 10 percent is the reflex. Did you like the iron sights on this gun? Everyone hated them causing them to prefer the Swat-556 iron sights like me.
Ahoy XboxAhoy ya might want to try putting Select Fire and Adjustable Stock on the M8, its worked pretty well for me as a double role weapon, and if you still want the Suppressor then you can throw on Primary Gunfighter.
It's worth noting despite the US forces abandoning the XM8, it's eventually sold to private militaries and the Malaysian special forces.
Bal Mungram Thats actually pretty interesting

Primary Weapon: M8A1

I use suppressor and fast mags.... That's different to reflex and stock/quickdraw and it works too

quick draw, ext mag, an optic, light weight, toughness, dexterity, 3 points for lethals/ non lethals and a secondary
These guides prove extremely useful to me.

Hi stu, did you ever had jupiler beer? Its a beer from belgium made in a small town called Jupile. Jupiler is very populair in belgium and in the netherlands, espacialy by the younger people. Keep up the good work!
The XM8 fires the same number of rounds as the M1216 shotgun: 4 rounds. The latter two being devastating at close range.
There is a fine difference between what he is explaining and what is on screen. No hate or offense.
You are the first english speaking person i find on youtube that can actually pronounce heckler & koch right :)
"You might have found your soul m8". One of the better puns from the series -making a pun from letters and numbers is pretty nice
Thanks for everything dude.great videos.
1:46 Bro 1 belly shot from damn near any range with this weapon will put anyone down. This is 11 years later
I really recommend a red dot on this gun. Although the iron sights are okay, your shots will be way more precise with a red dot. Plus, do not play it with suppressor due to the range penalty. If you are a freakin' "strafer" like me, put stock on it. Unfortunately, I had some nuclear fails with this gun, but it wasn't the gun's fault ;)
Why do people suggest putting a red dot on this thing??? It's iron sights are fine as-is
Stu, Have you ever thought of doing any "live" gameplay of BO2? Because it would be awesome to hear you go off like in your Syndicate final boss gameplay.
Penta-perk load-out, that sounds nice. Well done.
Hey Stu, a couple of questions about burst weapons:
1. Now that you've done all of the burst weapons in Black Ops II, which is your favorite? The SWAT-556 or the MA81? Or would you even pick the Chicom CQB or the B23R over the burst ARs?
2. Which is your favorite burst weapon out of all COD games? My personal favorite is the M16 from COD4, but I thought the Type 95 from MW3 was pretty good too.
Yo ahoy... I love your videos man. Keep it up.
My favourite chicom setup :)
Primary:Chicom-silencer,fast mag
Secondary:none
Perk 1 greed
Ghost,flak jacket
Perk 2 greed
Toughness,scavenger
Perk 3-dextery
the best class for the M8A1, select fire, suppressor, and stock! Try it out
Stu, do you see yourself possibly making a pack a punch guide for the weapons in black ops 2?
kinda of does, except for the absence of a bullpup design, and there are still a couple of weapons that feature a handle on top, a stock ar-15, many chineese weapons, the famas and so on
In the next CoD Stu will you go back to the older format where you show-off all attachments and their effectiveness on each weapon?
This is my setup
- Reflex and Stock. (It's hard to move which shooting because of the burst)
- B234 FMJ
- C4
- Tactical or Flash
- Hardline
- Scavenger or Fast Hands
Hey Stu, when your Black Ops 2 series is over, are you going to continue the Game Over Series on your RetroAhoy Channel? Some really nice Games for that would be Gran Turismo, Pokemon, Mortal Kombat, and more :)
Stu you should really make a video on tips and tricks! You know, just stuff that will really help people become better players, cause you sure know how to play!
Thank you xboxahoy you really help with my classsetups
90 percent of your footage is the iron sights and 10 percent is the reflex. Did you like the iron sights on this gun? Everyone hated them causing them to prefer the Swat-556 iron sights like me.
Ahoy XboxAhoy ya might want to try putting Select Fire and Adjustable Stock on the M8, its worked pretty well for me as a double role weapon, and if you still want the Suppressor then you can throw on Primary Gunfighter.
