woohoo, got my 8-bit Price last night!

Just bragging

Good for you

Getting a 10 kill streak without using killstreaks is kinda difficult for me. I always get a 6 or 7 kill streak then start screwing up.

Someone said you could actually hijack someone elses care package to get the kills if push comes to shove :lol

Maybe get a friend and have him call care packages for you or EADs with the intent of you taking them if you need to get it?

No clue if that works, but someone mentioned it in here.

I thought care package kills didn't count towards your killstreak.

[Edit: Ah, nm, you're not getting a killstreak. It's just 10 kills with no KS equipped.]

You're probably right, actually. I just read the description in that iPhone app and it says "get a 10 killstreak with no killstreak rewards equipped"

...so maybe that person didn't know what they were talking about :lol

I got it the old fashioned way, which I can confirm works, of course.

I tried to shoot down a harrier yesterday and it took 4 bloody missiles till one connected. I thought they only had one set of flares?

harriers don't have flares, and 1 stinger or javelin will take it down, I've seen stingers and javelins miss though at close range, which is weird.

Harriers has ZERO flares - one Stinger shot will take it down. I'm guessing it either has to do with the launcher you're using (no lock on) or there may be some invincibility frames for the Harrier.

 

[Choke on the Magic]

I wish you could lock on to ground objects with stingers like you can with the javelin.

 

[Pete Rock]

Yes, sometimes the Stinger simply disappears when it should impact the Harrier, good times.

 

[RSTEIN]

I wish you could lock on to ground objects with stingers like you can with the javelin.

That's why you don't get two Javelin missiles

 

[shuri]

kinda sucks that prestige only gives you another custom class slot. Complete a prestige level should give you something unique (like another weapon, or a new secret perk) or a way to design your own suit to be used in-game (you could design your own camo pattern, with colors).


It's just dumb grinding :|

 

[UFRA]

That's why you don't get two Javelin missiles

You don't get 2 stingers either, if I recall correctly.

 

[Brazil]

You do.

 

[Choke on the Magic]

Which is why I love Scavenger.

 

[MrCompletely]

You do get two stingers.

 

[Bluemercury]

I use my STD flowers callsign with the same flowers as the emblem.

This

with this

how do you customize those?

 

[sneakypete]

How does one get the STD callsign?

 

[Mileena]

Do you have to be a certain level to unlock the Behind Enemy Lines challenge?

edit: nvm just got it first try. Hooray for M16

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

How does one get the STD callsign?

Be killed by someone who is infected.

I was very confused when I got it. :lol

 

[Panda Bear]

Be killed by someone who is infected.

I was very confused when I got it. :lol

No you have to knife someone who is currently using the sign.

 

[FromTheFuture]

Be killed by someone who is infected.

I was very confused when I got it. :lol

Nah, for Infected, someone who has that title has to knife you. For STD, you have to knife someone who has that title.

 

[OldJadedGamer]

Just tested it in offline split screen. Tried it with Pavelow, Chopper Gunner and AC130 with each of the three launchers that lock on. Held every lock-on for a 10 count and it didn't work with any combination of launcher and air support.

Someone is teh liar!!!!! (and I secretly hope it's you cause I would love for the flares to go off simply by locking on)

 

[Meier]

Harriers has ZERO flares - one Stinger shot will take it down. I'm guessing it either has to do with the launcher you're using (no lock on) or there may be some invincibility frames for the Harrier.

I shot two stingers (locked on) at one the other day and neither connected.. pissed me off. No chaffs were used as far as I could tell.. no clue why it didn't work. Naturally I got killed by someone after the second shot which made it even more obnoxious.

 

[Victrix]

It's a bug. Occasionally they'll just simply miss. Seems to happen more often on certain maps/positions than others.

 

[RSTEIN]

Which is why I love Scavenger.

and why I love One Man Army

OMA won't refill your Javelin.

I'll let you figure out why

 

[RSTEIN]

woah... had no idea! I always just assumed it would. But that makes perfect sense.

 

[Ken K in the Fresh!!!]

If u had little clearance ur stinger missile probably hit a tree, utility pole or side of the building..

 

[Ken K in the Fresh!!!]

No secondary..

No, it's a bug. Had it happen to me many times. The thing literally swerves out of the way and then spins around in the sky or just disappears. And if you miss once for no reason there's a good chance it will happen again when you reload and refire. Happens in afghan and Invasion to me a lot.

I've experienced it a few times too, but I've always attributed it to me being too aggressive trying to shoot the Harrier down the second it's settled in and I've locked on. These days, I just swap to my CB Kit and not worry about shooting it down. I'm really considering taking the Stinger out of as my secondary in my CB Kit - though more realistic, I don't like sticking out like a sore thumb with a rocket launcher tied to my back.

 

[minx]

Yeah I call them Super Harriers. When one stinger misses the second always misses as well. It can take up to 5 sometimes.

 

[Insaniac]

has anyone considered how badly you could own most TDM games if you had a party who actually used classes/ Killstreaks that complimented each other?

My ultimate strategy would involve having several players with standard stopping power builds and several as ghosts (CBpro and Ninjapro) and then have two players running counter-UAV to disrupt the enemy completely.

Just force the enemy into a spawn and continually flank with the ghosts the enemies would never know where to guard from.

 

[FromTheFuture]

woah... had no idea! I always just assumed it would. But that makes perfect sense.

You can't have a secondary weapon with OMA. If you're being serious.

(I had already seen the second one, but funny nonetheless.)

Second one is hilarious :lol. By the way, is the javelin more powerful than a single stinger shot? I never use the javelin because of its limited ammo.

Place I noticed it most was at the boathouse on Estate, trying to shoot either towards the house or down the hill. The trees seem to mess up the shots. I have also had it happen on Wasteland if you try to shoot a harrier on the other side of the hedge from you, even though its a clear line of sight through the sky.

 

[Aurora]

Man, I miss the Javelin glitch.

 

[alterno69]

Got mine minutes ago on like my third match after checkin off the killstreak rewards, felt good and it was great cause i was killed just after getting the tenth kill. I created a new class after some guys sugesstions here and i was a beast.
Scar
Silencer
Scavenger Pro
Cold Blooded Pro
Commando Pro

i Ended up a couple of rounds with great k/d ratios like 23/1 and 34/4.

level_temp = level;
new_gun = true;
if (new_gun_attachment < theta*size(all_attachment))

you = raping others;
level = level + 1;

I am enough of this infinite loop bs...back to Halo 3...

[DRE Fei]

I'm getting close to the 2500 kills for the FAMAS prestige challenge and I have a question. Do those prestige gun challenges reset after you max them out, or do they stop at 2500 or something? I'm on my 4th prestige now and I'd hate to lose those bonuses since they're pretty sweet.

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

Called in my first nuke on Underpass Domination! Then the PS3 froze on the results screen so none of it counted

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

I'm finding pubbin' surprisingly easy to level up weapons with. Shoulda tried this sooner.

 

[Scarecrow]

Man, that noob tube w/ OMA combo sure kicks some ass. I just unlocked the Nuke earlier and tried for it, but the game ended with me at 21 kills. ALso the first time I used the chopper gunner, so that was pretty awesome too.

The build feels nerfed on the PC......

Maybe I'm just shit with it.....:lol

 

[Nelo Ice]

the weirdest thing just happened

was playing a game of tdm and we were 3 kills from winning then all of a sudden the game lags out(not host migration) and im sitting there under the map then when the game starts up again i see enemies forfeiting pop up and im the only one left on either team then i get disconnected from live

 

[MarkMclovin]

Just tested it in offline split screen. Tried it with Pavelow, Chopper Gunner and AC130 with each of the three launchers that lock on. Held every lock-on for a 10 count and it didn't work with any combination of launcher and air support.

I generally take them out with the second stinger whilst using Sleight of Hand. If the 1st misses, by the time you've reloaded and fired the second, the heli/harrier doesn't have time to release the flares again. Job done (well it's has worked for me at least). AC130 is a different story though. Taking one of them down I reckon is just based on luck.

 

[Johnlenham]

Yeah I call them Super Harriers. When one stinger misses the second always misses as well. It can take up to 5 sometimes.

I was going to say theres no way I got it wrong, that fucker was up there for three "lifes" as everytime I fired 2 stingers I would then get poped in the face by the other team.
