Remington 870 MCS - Black Ops 2 Weapon Guide

This gun was half the reason I bought this game. Such a satisfying weapon. Makes a great overkill secondary too.

[@TheDivineRhythm]

Pump shotguns are supposed to be one hit kills. The problem isn't the weapon, but the maps. Small maps favor shotguns.

[@rockkid1412]

Ah ha.

[@TheGunslinger44]

This is especially true in Battlefield. Use the 870 MCS in Locker, you may go 26-2. Use it in Golmud Railway, you'll find the opposite.

I've been a fan of COD since the original black ops. I'm a old guy (57) but I manage to do well by playing to my strengths. Your videos have been most insightful and have helped me choose the weapons that best suit my style of play. I knew these videos are alot of work, I just wanted ya to know, alot of guys appreciate it.

It's been years since I've played BLOPS2, but these videos are just so well written and presented. I also can't resist that voice.

But then you loose your emergency weapon that’s also capable of long range kills.

[@jackmcmorrow9397]

This gun is far from OP. Although it is deadly in close range, like a shotgun SHOULD be, but outside that range, you are basically screwed. Even at close range, the inconsistency in the hip fire and massive penalty for missed shots balances it even further.

[@busbear6899]

That is what it made the gun amazing fun because no one wants to mess with a experienced r870 user.

[@griffithdidnothingwrong8779]

[@imaginativeIdeations]

That’s why I only ever used the KSG on BO2, I barely ever got a hitmarker with it, although it took a lot more coordinated skill, and was less accurate, it was still worth it over BS hitmarkers

[@RonaldoH71]

bruh bo2 it's all about snipers you see them everywhere so the only way to defend myself is really with a shotgun that's the only reason why I started using it

[@alyssasalmon4883]

True, snipers are buffed compared to bo1, but then again nearly everything is buffed and the more powerful ones are bolt action with much more punishing missed shots. If you’re having trouble with one, try juking and flanking -signed, a ballista sniper

The tactics you said really helped me out too, and my class is extremely similar and everything you used is very useful. I love the R870 and this guide

[@GeekyNerd54]

Instead of dead silence you should choose extreme conditioning

[@busterthebear6756]

[@judsongaiden9878]

2:34 For a shotgun to use a true "clip" (like a stripper clip), it would most likely have a fixed internal box mag and would load down the top. Speedloaders for pump guns exist. They usually hold four rounds. Experts can load in the blink of an eye using a speedloader. The trouble with those things is they're cumbersome to carry. Also, there's no way to fit 11 shells into a mag tube that fits flush with an 18.5" or 20" barrel. You could have a twin-tube pump gun with one barrel (like the Kel-Tec KSG, only it wouldn't have to be a bullpup) and have both tubes hold five shells each, then you'd get a total capacity of 11 rounds (5+5+1). Otherwise, the mag tube AND barrel, assuming they're flush-fit with each other, would be way too long for it to be used as a legit combat shotgun. Would make a great skeet gun, though. *Edit/Note:* I'll never understand the appeal of "wrong-handed" reloads, nor the reason for repositioning the support hand to grasp the gun center-mass around the barrel and mag tube, only to have to re-reposition the support hand after loading. It just adds unnecessary steps to what should be a simple procedure. Paul Harrell illustrates all the best techniques for this sort of thing (and more).

[@darianthescorpion1132]

1 month ago I posted how I use this kind of class. I changed it again to fit into 10 points. pretty much the same idea but more balance to limited points. the Remington 870 with the long barrel and the quickdraw. secondary is the Five Seven with dual wield. lightweight, fast hands and extreme conditioning. 1 frag and a smoke grenade, and no wildcards. a Tomb Raider class build, focusing on mobility and power. 32 shells, plus over 160 pistol rounds can take me through long score streaks if I can survive that long. I find the laser sight has very limited benefit on the shotguns, I find that range and reactivity is a better bonus. I still hipfire when I absolutely need to but I always find that aiming down the sights grants much more versatile performance.

[@gummyboots]

Engineer allows you to spot those campers from a ways away, and by the time they hear you you're in 1-hit kill range with the R870/KSG and 2-hit for the S12 and M1216 so when they turn around after hearing something its directly into the face of a barrel and some buckshot.

[@gunmunz]

as alternative to perk three I'd suggest a engi perk to identify enemy mines guarding their flanks as you move around them and an emp gernade to take them out

[@StrunDoNhor]

Other weapons may take more actual shots to kill, but they are infinitely easier to use thanks to their generous magazine sizes and automatic (usually) fire modes. The pellet shotguns are only effective within 15-or-so meters, and of that their OHK range is only about 10 meters. If your first shot fails to kill you are certainly going to lose the gunfight. AR's and, to a lesser extent, SMG's can be effective at every range if used properly. They're easier to use, and are more consistent.

[@gummyboots]

I don't for a few reasons. 1. Almost every single camping spot in the game has multiple entrances, so i'll go to the one without the trap, which probably the one to the side of where ever they're facing and rarely in the side-front. 2. Almost no one uses Claymores because of how ass they are and shock charges are the only traps that engineer doesn't work on. 3. I use Bouncing Betties to my advantage by activating them while i'm crouching to either kill or distract the person who planted them.
