Well played a bit more last night and this morning and I'm not finding Prestige mode that bad, it is forcing me to improve my aim which is going rather well. I'm really liking the sniper rifles too. I just need to to aim quicker but really like the M403 rifle.

I didn't like the M403 much. It's powerful but I do prefer the semi-automatic sniper rifles, just on the off chance I don't kill someone in one shot. Knowing you only have one shot does force you to be more accurate though, so maybe that's not a bad thing.
Regarding Prestige mode, I'm sure I'll go for it when I finally get there. The first weapons available are still some of my favourites (M16A4, M249 SAW) so it won't be too bad having to use them again, and I'm sure I could run through the early levels quickly enough to get my custom classes back.

I just don't find the M21 as good as the M403. I've tried both but didn't seem to have the same success but will only but using the M403 until I get the Barret back.
I'll admit I was a little cheesed off earlier when I first started prestiege mode but that was because I was against some seriously good players. One thing that I really annoying me is the really good players are only good because they exploit the glitches in the various maps.

I know the people you mean. They jump on top of buildings and hide in places they shouldn't be. I take great delight in hiding a fair distance away and sniping them in the face

I find it very frustrating to be honest as I used to be a close quarters fighters and would always be happy when I took the player down only to be killed by the grendade. One thing I think IW should do is reduce the kill points for killing someone with martyrdom as you've gone and got yourself killed so you shouldn't get the same points as if you shot them with your weapon.
I hold up my hands and say on maps like Vacant and Shipment I always use matrydom. As I like to take out the git who got me If you're up for some tonight Davey send me a text and I'll try and pop on if you like, sniper team on personal chat

I could well be up for that Leo, though I likely won't be on until after 11pm.
