F.N.G.

"Right. What the hell kind of name is Soap, eh? How'd a muppet like you pass selection?"

- Captain Price

F.N.G. is the first mission in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, or in other words the training mission for Call of Duty 4. It serves as a tutorial to teach players basic gameplay mechanics, and introduces two of the game's major characters, "Soap" MacTavish and Captain Price. When Gaz is introducing "Soap" MacTavish to Captain Price he introduces him as the F.N.G. "F.N.G." is an informal military acronym and stands for "Fucking New Guy". It is used to denote a Soldier who has recently transferred to a new unit.

Characters

 * Soap (playable)
 * Price
 * Gaz

Plot
This is the first mission, where the player plays as "Soap". The player is at Credenhill, England, where he begins his training with Gaz. Gaz teaches the player how to shoot, aim down the sights, shoot from the hip, shoot through cover, transfer one's aim, to use a sidearm and to use the knife.

The player then gets to meet Captain Price along with other members of his team when they instruct him to do the CQB test. The CQB test is a "mock-up" of the cargo ship, based on the ship the player will infiltrate in the next mission, "Crew Expendable".

Weaponry
The player must obtain a G36C and USP .45 near the armory during the tutorial process. An MP5 is obtained later.

Original F.N.G.
These weapons were used by Soap and several NPC's in the uncut version of F.N.G.

The Armory
The Armory can be found next to the indoor range (these weapons cannot be used or picked up) and features all the weapons that appear in the campaign of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and the multiplayer includes except for the M60E4, the MP44 and the FIM-92 Stinger.

Tips

 * On the CQB test, instead of reloading, switch to the sidearm and use it on the next sections. Knifing is also a good tip if done quickly.
 * Make sure to sprint when possible.
 * Before sliding down with the rope, reload the pistol and use it for the rest of the training.
 * Using the G36C may also be beneficial as it has a Red Dot Sight, unlike the MP5, though the player will aim slower while aiming down the sight. To use it for the course, pick it up from the table after the rope glows gold or replace the USP with the MP5.
 * When reaching the last part of the test, instead of shooting the last two targets, sprint to the finish after throwing the flashbang. Once the player has reached the finish, just shoot through the wooden walls of the room containing the targets; bullet penetration should do the rest.
 * Keep in mind that excellent shots can earn the player an Accuracy Bonus, which will shave some seconds off of one's final time. (The USP .45 would be the proper weapon for this, as with it the player can run faster, it gives great accuracy being semi-automatic and reloads fast.)
 * It is possible to beat Infinity Ward's record of 14.5 seconds somewhat easily, though the score will not go to leaderboards. After unlocking all cheats by collecting intel, activate Infinite Ammo and Slow Mo cheats, then rappel down. It is easy this way, as the player can aim precisely with more time to think, and the player does not worry about reloading.
 * Even though it was cut from the final game, the obstacle course can still be run through by the player.
