Tonight I broke the game.

I got a nuke, and I died, and I thought "fuck it, I'll see if I can get another", since the game still had some time to go.

So I tried. And I did it. Kept going for a bit, died again so decided to call one in. See if I could call both in for lulz.

But it was not to be.

:(

Two nukes in one game? Man, that's impressive :hat:

Clearly IW have itchy button fingers, and never conceived (or rather never tested) what would happen in this situation.

I spent almost all of yesterday in real lobbies!

Just now, queued two times. I got one 18 player 750 point domination on Rust, and one 18 player 750 point domination on Highrise.

The exploit is far, far too easy to do.

I don't think you're going to see them if you're queuing for Mosh Pit or CTF though.

Nah, cos people will only cheat again.

I just use the leaderboards to test myself really, its fun to see how I compare to my friends, but I couldnt give a fuck where I stand globally. I was checking the leaderboards earlier, there are several thousand people who have posted a 100% accuracy score online. Imagine that? You go out of your way to make sure you have a 100% shooting accuracy, and you dont even appear in the first three hundred pages of the leaderboards because so many other people are at it too.

I am having some real bad luck with the Pavelow too. I dropped it for a while because it never seemed to get any kills for me (I posted about this earlier in the thread if anybody remembers) but I put it back in just now. I got a nine kill streak, all with gun because I missed with my predator missile (:facepalm:) then some fucker shot my harrier out of the air before it killed anybody, that's fair enough I guess, but then I shot two more people and called in the Pavelow. It got blown out of the sky in about five seconds and it didnt kill anybody either. I have no idea how it got killed so quickly, it was on Sub Base if that is relevant info, but I was of the understanding that they are supposed to be able to take three rockets before they go down. The only thing I can think of is that somebody hit it with their own Predator missile. Bit miffed that I got and 11 or 12 kill streak and had zero help from air support though. Still, I won the round. I really can hold my own in FFA these days.

I had an epic moment too. Again, this game needs Halo style replays. Also on Sub Base. ACR, Stinger, Scavenger pro, Cold Blooded pro, Ninja pro.

I like to hang around in the areas I painted yellow on FFA games, but I was in the light yellow bit at the time of the story. I had a claymore down on the red spot, it killed a guy, so I sprinted round there, picked the new claymore off of his corpse (<3 Scavenger) put it back in the exact same spot and ran back to my light yellow bit. Then within the space of about ten seconds I heard an enemy cobra was coming in, I shot that down with my stinger before it had even begun to patrol and at the exact same moment I saw my Claymore had hit somebody but not killed them. Switched back to my ACR, looked over the fence and it was the guy who had just died from my claymore coming back for a revenge kill. Shot him again, and two seconds later saw another guy coming down the same corridor with a sentry gun. He planted that, I had cold blooded on so I shot him and knifed his sentry gun. So in the space of maybe twenty seconds I had a kill, shot a chopper down, another kill, a third kill then took out a sentry gun. At the moment the sentry gun died I levelled up. Its moments like that which make up for all the time when the game frustrates the fuck out of me. :omg:

Oh, and after levelling up I unlocked a new killstreak. Debating whether to take Emergency Air Drop or Counter UAV. Counter UAV looks like an under rated perk, and it seems to be a very good way to get a ton of XP on the run from 60-70. Any suggestions?

^ There's a good chance you'll get some Counter-UAVs in Emergency Airdrops :)

The fake lobbies were really annoying last night. I did like the 3rd Person Ground War Team Tactical game because it was a new gametype, and there was no boosting. I suck and had negative k/d most of the time!

But then entering 18-player Domination on Rust with FF-on was shit. As was trying many times to get a normal game but instead a wierd lobby with a pixelated abstract map picture. New players not following online about the glitches etc must have no idea what's going on.

The sheer number of people oh so cautiously trying to get those first seven kills to open up the streak can make some games enormously dull.

I'm getting so confused about this. Kills from killstreak rewards don't add to your killstreak as far as getting further killstreak rewards, do they?

Yes they do.

Things out of crates from care packages and emergency air drops dont, but air support like the predator missile, harrier, attack helicopter, AC 130 (etc) all do.

Ah, I see, thanks. Seems a bit unfair. I have to work hard for my emergency care packages.

It's not unfair. What if you got a harrier/pavelow or even ac130/chopper gunner from an airdrop meaning you could get another one right away from the kills from the airdrop if you have that setup. That's the sacrafice you make for getting 4 airdrops at 8 kills or 1 at 4 kills that could be some of the best stuff in the game

What about sentry guns?

They count as long as y ou don't move them from where y ou originally put them down

Yeah, I guess so.

Good to know, thanks. Time to change my killstreak rewards methinks.

Is it considered bad form to just run around knifing people? I've just made a knife class which consists of marathon, the fast sprinting thing and commando. Can't think of what to have as my primary weapon though, I thought riot shield for a bit to protect my back but that was frustrating when people were far away and I only had a shitty pistol to to try and pick them off so I've went back to just a normal assualt rifle.

It's terrific fun tearing round the map popping people in the face with your dagger though, I'd love to hear people as I come running toward them as they frantically try to reload.

Me and Mr AA-12 have grown to love people using that class. ;)

noob tube + scavenger pro + danger close + claymores - I'm winning almost every game of FFA with this loadout without firing a shot, all my kills are from pure explosives. Essentially you're getting infinite 'tubes and claymores. I've disconnected my headset because the furious abuse is so horrific.

I love the war stories in this thread. One of mine:

Last night, playing Domination on Highrise, I'm alone at A (which we are holding along with C) and I kill a guy who had just come into the window on the right hand side (if looking towards B and A).

I guess that he is likely to want to revenge kill me, and I guess that he'll spawn at B and go via the underground passages and up the stairs back to A. So I put a claymore at the top of the stars. Booom, he dies again.

I then go back to where I killed him the first time, but stay in the room that is further back so that he'd have to come right into the window before seeing me (so he'd feel secure that I wasn't around). Sure enough he appears, and I'm prone waiting for him. Death.

I then go to the right hand window again and crouch in the corner (guessing that he'll still think I'm prone further back and therefore that he'll rush through the window thinking he's safe). Sure enough, he does this, and I kill him again as he comes in.

I then guess he'll try the stairs again for a second time. Claymore. Boom.

Challenge "...The Harder They Fall" (kill top player on opposite team 5 times in a row) unlocked.

I then merrily went off to try and capture C, which we had just lost. The poor bloke I killed 5 times in a row must have been pissed that he never got his revenge. Needless to say he left the lobby after that match.

hehe.

I had a similar experience on Rundown. I am in a house overlooking one of the three bridges. The Easternmost I think. The wide one that isnt the centre bridge anyway, and this guy on my team [NUFC] Toonman or something like that) runs over it and gets shot. Ten seconds later I see him appear again, he runs over the bridge again, he gets shot again. I shit you not, ten seconds later he runs over the bridge, this time with his gun blazing, one shot comes back and it kills him again. :lol:

He learned his lesson after that.

I have kinda done the same thing myself though. It seems to happen when I respawn and lose my bearings, which still happens more than I would like it to. Ill wander into an area I just got killed and get shot again. I wont realise what I have done until it is too late.

Hmm. As I've said before, I find the CoD 'elite' community to be very closed, league play seems to be the same so I find it quite hard to garner any information outside of what Den Kirson and Youtube have to offer.

As far as I know the highest legit prestige is around 8th and the booster clans that all have 10th are too busy being pricks about the whole thing to actually reveal anything. Still, the PC version was hacked to 10th within a few days and we didn't hear anything so I can only assume he's speculating or just taking us for a ride. I guess we'll find out in the next two weeks.

I like to think it's new guns. The Dragunov was in the SP, why not MP? It doesn't seem fitting with their normal policy of 'unlock equality' but with such great balance it wouldn't really be anything more than a cool reward.
