Holy poo poo level 1000, I wonder if a single person will get to that on PC before it dies.

I've already seen some people really loving high up there but I'm pretty sure those guys are nerds.

Edit: One of them said he wasn't but he also said he was Global Elite in CS:GO and real high rank in DOTA. Those seem like nerd things to me.

So I didn't realize this before, because I suck at math apparently, but Ante Up gives you points toward every scorestreak. So if you get your first one and it would normally take 500 to get to the next, the next one also takes less score to get to.

Is it always a straight 100 off? Can't be I guess. Is it a percent?

That's why I said you have multiple sets per game mode and switch between them depending on the next map.

You can't pay COD points for a common case, only a rare one.

Technically, it's a little less. CODCoin cases contain more bonus cryptokeys.

Cryptokey rare cases also contain more bonus cryptokeys for some reason. I got 5 and 7 when I traded in for two cases last night.

I was gonna ask why the gently caress I can't put stupid decals on my gun.

Also I learned that Domination is so much better for general experience and whatnot. I even got to pop my first few scorestreaks due to capping. :toot:

Like the Cerberus, you really have to control the Talon for it to be effective. The Talon is hilariously overpowered in Hardcore, though. I put it up high and snipe people with it. It only takes a half second of sustained fire to kill someone, unlike Core where you have to keep the gun on them for a few seconds.

I think the Cerberus should be a bit faster, though. If you triple cap in Dom and mess up the spawns, it tends to run in circles and get confused.

the talon ridiculous and you can easily rack up 5-10 kills with the thing under manual control. no idea why anyone would pick the cerberus over it

Yeah I'd be interested in knowing what the average cryptokey refund from rare boxes is because I've gotten some really high ones (including getting 30 cryptokeys from a rare drop) so really it averages out to more than one box per 200 CoD points.

People also go batshit for ai cerberus in a way they don't for talons. They'll full-on suicide rush or focus on taking it out while they'll mostly ignore an ai talon because it's just backup bullets for you rather than patrol.

Most of my cerberus kills are just picking off guys desperately trying to missile it.

Then every once in a while I'll go 15-0 at the beginning of a round and be mad at myself.

Edit: I legit did do UAV/Care Package/CUAV but I gained confidence after prestiging and said "I wanna bomb some fools with planes". Before I unlocked CUAV it was HDXD/UAV/Care Package.

I stopped running UAV and CUAV when people decided that they all were gonna pack blackcells at all times.Care package, lightning strike/sentry and then wraith/rolling thunder.

I have a very high kill rate on myself with rolling thunder.

Yeah, the difference between user controlled and AI controlled talon and cerberus is just far too large. You can rack up double digit kills controlling them whilst the AI versions will get 2-3 and then generally be poo poo/get themselves killed.

Nothing makes you Get Good (tm) like playing with pubbies and have them routinely fail you every night. I have developed powerful cod awareness and eyes in the back of my back via trusting no one in dom, friend or foe.

Yeah seriously. people will suicide run the cerby and dump magazines into it whilst they will turn and run from a talon. When I say people I mean me, every time they are called in.

In my camo quest I have started playing with the Dingo. It's the worst weapon in the game. It's an LMG that takes 4-5 body hits to kill so I will always lose if me and the enemy with any other gun start shooting at the same time.

I can't think of anything good about it other than the mag size (being an LMG), but you could just put Extended Mag on an assault rifle to achieve the same thing and without the super long reload.

The BRM and Dingo are a Manowar and a HVK with no High Caliber. I hated them both and was incredibly glad to see their rear ends, I won't be touching either again now that they're gold.
