Metal Gear Online: How the Assault Rifle 3 Skill became noob.
We have ScrubbyMcNoob an above average MGOer. He has a nice shot and good awareness. Knows what to do and what not to do. His skill setup is Assault Rifle 1, Runner 2, Monomania 3/Quarterback 3. In combat he doesn’t spray in long range battles and uses short burst to controll recoil.
He has mastered boxing, aiming while dodging and most of his kills come from the first few shots he lets off to the head. In his mind the only good player is one who runs into fire, dodges all incoming shots, and kills them on the reload. He loaths players who use any weapon skills above level 1, use cover (walls, cars, sandbags) and thinks spraying is ‘cheap’.
McNoob was playing a random Capture game one day when he ran into “xXxRandomSnake#####WithFancyLettersxXx”. This guy was ripping it up, getting double and triple kills. Then McNoob and Snake met up in the basement middle and have a firefight. McNoob dies form a headshot, and on the killcam he sees that Snake reloads instantaneously.
“FU AR 3 Noob” pops up in the chatbox soon after McNoob repawns. He shakes it off and kills a few people, on his way for the target. Suddenly a hail of bullets comes flying at him and he boxes and dances around looking for his target.

The killcam shows Snake behind one of the many pillars reloading his M4 then taking out anothr player not aware of his location.
McNoob’s jaw drops. His hands feverishly type “OMG U WALL HUGGING SPRAYING NOOB!!!!11!!11″ with all his anger. Now he had a vendetta. He must KILL this generic named, AR3 using noob at all cost.
He killed everyone in his way, eyes filled with rage only to be brought down every time from Snake’s M4.
The game soon came down to wire, with both players on the top of their respected teams. The cap clock was at 5-5 and both targets were down.
“If I get the target and get the goal, I’ll be number one! I’ll show that AR 3, wallhugging noob who’s beast!”
xXxRandomSnake#####WithFancyLettersxXx has grabbed your target! Get it back!
“Oh no you don’t noob! I’ll stop you!” he yells at the TV. Running to the score point he sees that target was within his grasp! Snake turns the corner and meets up with McNoob. Their eyes meet for what seems like forever, for this is what it was down to.
Pew! Pew!
Buurrrrrtatatatatatatat!
Pew! Pew!
They clashed, shooting and dodging bullets. Snake inched closed to the goal. McNoob boxes, then suddenly his dualshock 3 rumbbles with intense fury.
“What the… AUTO-AIM?!?!?!?!?” He screams as his heath dwindles down to zero.
5,4,3…
“No, this can’t be happening…”
2…
1…
Red Team wins!
Enraged, McNoob hasty grabs his keyboard. “The only reason you won is because you AA you noob!!! You need to git gud like me feg snake!!!!”
Snake replies “good game”.
Then McNoob quits, turning off his PS3 and goes to GameFAQs and makes a rage topic:
“All ppl who use AR3 are noobz!!!111!!one!!!!”
And that children, is how AR3 became noobish.
