    I just got it for the FAMAS (maybe with a tiny bit of boosting :D), and I've got to say, it looks crap. Looks more like someone puked on my gun, less a fall camouflage. I cant believe IW would make this the last camo to unlock, especially when after such awesome camos as Red, Blue Tiger + Urban.

    Here's a video btw, if you don't know what it looks like:
    <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/z7nFDd1YMrY&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/z7nFDd1YMrY&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width='425' height="344"></embed></object>

    Back in COD4, when Gold was so elusive and challenging to acquire, you actually wanted to unlock it, unlike this POS. I'm just sorta annoyed that it took so much work to get it, when I'm just gonna stick with Red Tiger.

    I don't know tianxia.. I think he might have a point. I'd imagine there are plenty of actual soldiers who complain about the camo not matching their shoes, not bringing out the color in their eyes, and certainly just not "looking cool!" :rolleyes:

    I think the puke analogy is pretty much spot on. It's a silly choice of color to be the final unlock for any given weapon.

    This is a video game. I'm not looking for a functional camouflage, I want one that looks cool. We're not soldiers, we're gamers, and this is not real life.

    I personally don't think it's that bad. It's not as cool as red tiger though.

    Urban is the shizznits, and its cool how arctic comes default with every gun (it looks pretty cool), so IW didn't get their new camos completely wrong.

    Yeah, I would think that common sense would dictate that if you were in a wooded environment during the fall, that gun would look pretty good.

    But then that's what camouflage is, right? :)
