On Der Riese Which side do you open up first

[chimpanste]

Hi guys just wondering Which side people prefer to open up first,

The Trench Gun Route or the Thompson Route.

I prefer to use the Trench gun Route firstly because

i Love to kill the Hell Hounds with my Trench gun and i like to get my Bettys early on.

ive asked people online why they prefer the thompson way

but have never gotten any real answers.

:mrgreen:

If I'm playing off-line, I open the trench gun way and keep the Tompson way closed just in case we want to use the barrier glitch with that door. But normally it's the Tompson way. No real reason.

[brains] Sorry dude, forgot your brains.

Thompson route because it helps to pull up your score. A kill with the thompson on early rounds fetches you more than 60pts which is what the trench gives in those early rounds. Plus its high rate of fire is something thats a prerequisite to later rounds. I can get from 3-7k pts in early rounds just from using the tommy and the M1911.

I agree...you get way more points with the Thompson. Plus you can keep it until around round 15 or so before you really need a better gun.

i usually go trench gun, i feel that it has more survivability to that direction.

also, i think that for later rounds, the trench gun/Gut Shot is a much better weapon than the Thompson and its upgraded variant, just due to the power

[EternalDragon6661]

Thompson route because it is cheaper and you do have a direct route to juggernog and bettys. ya just gotta turn the power on first .... and yes the thompson does provide more in the way of points, faster reload, gibs, all around decimation but not as much as the PPSH-41/Reaper. Gotta respect The Reaper. [brains]

I used to go shotgun all the time so i could get my hands on that badboy but finally noticed you get more points and can hold up more spots if you take the Thompson route. For instance you leave the shotgun stairs alone have 1 guy on either side of the bridge until round 9 or so.

[Jackyboy1384]

Most of the time, because of my bad luck, by round 3 I will NOT have the most points meaning that (when I'm playing with decent players which is like never anymore) I don't open the doors.

But when I do have the most points, I tend to open up the Thompson way because, like others said, you get more points and larger clips with the Thompson, giving you more chance of survival in a way.

But I see where you're coming from by opening the Trench Gun way, I used to do that until around Christmas 09 time.

I choose the Thompson way because of where I like to camp out on higher levels, near the other door...the first one that would start you towards the shotgun, but don't open up any of those doors until you get screwed....my favorite strategy. :D

[squiddy]

Wow. So many people who go the Thompson way.

I ALWAYS go the trench gun way. Never buy the Trench gun though. Just go straight to the random weapons box. The only reason I go that way is because I am just so used of it.

[RibbleyJibblies]

I always go the way of the trench gun, activate power, circle back and grab Juggernog and Betties, that's just what I do though.

that's how i roll. Get points, open thompson, then more points, then open up by jugg drop down hit the box, pull the power :)

[James Dean]

Since I'm still new to everything, I just follow whoever opens what first. Most of the time when I play with someone, They open up the route to the Thompson gun. I like the Thompson.

[Vallkure]

Well, if it's four people the we normally go Thompson and move as a single group to activate teleporters. When it's just we and someone else, then we usually split up, one going in each direction (I normally go Trench Gun side), activating a teleporter at the end of the Round until we have them all linked.

[Beware of the Docter]

All respect guys but IMO that's kinda nooby buyin those guns, I usually rely on ma good ol' pistol and knife till I reach the box. I go the Thompson route but refuse to EVER buy it...

[TehGKBrief]

I go through the tommy route. Its a good idea to stay in that room and buy the tommy till hellhounds, then move on to the random box.

[Undeadwolfy]

Why did people give this person -2 brains? Its just his opinion. Ill start by giving you one back.

What I do is go to the Trench gun. I just prefer the one hit kills until I can get a decent weapon.

[LOLOLOLOL]

I Just Hate The Trench Gun DX Thompson Is Fully Automatic And I Can Usually Go Without Getting The Box With It For A Few Rounds And If Everything Becomes Too Much You Can Buy The Type 100 :D

[Gary]

I just go on with the Thompson route,more points.

I didn't - [brains] him, but he said he does barrier glitch. :evil:

Peace out... 8-)

because he said

we want to use the barrier glitch with that door.

and we don't condone glitching, and never have.

Since Verrukt I have this Golden Rule whenever I play Zombies. Always Buy a SMG off the Wall. A: You never know what you will get whenever you try your luck at the Box.

B: The SMG can hold you till at least Round 15. But chances are you will get a good gun before then.

So its no doubt that I take the Thompson Side. Its a Heck a lot better then the Trench Gun. I hate when people take that way at the start.

Question: Are there any "Black Ops" Weapons on the Walls in Black Ops "WAW" Maps?

No, only in the box.

...It's nooby to guarantee yourself a good gun when you don't have the points to constantly spin the box until you get a slightly better one?

Early on in games the Trench Gun is a one shot kill, up until around round 10 I believe? Not that I use it very often so I don't know very well. Thompson is good for points and very powerful until around round 15, then it begins to lose power, and a clip of 20 becomes inconvenient.

Personally I always go the Thompson way. I love the gun, it's great for points (continue using the shoot + stab method with a Thompson, can't do that with Trench Gun) and also I always take the Thompson area for my own in online games for running trains, I find it to be the best area for it.

I never spin the box before roughly round 12, when I have Juggernog, preferably Speed Cola and usually I won't hit the box until I've PAP'd my M1911.
