Gonna go back and relisten to that voicemail where Prophet gets really impressed that Reaper has been "upgrading" himself.

Finally caught up on over a months worth of TK spreadsheet data.

Did Ty hold onto his TK lead? Yes, although he was right that his TK/Game ratio is relatively low. Not lower than the other HC regulars, however.

Did I manage to stop TKing Ven? Nope, I'm still a monster.

Whose KB/K ratio should I peep? Caf and Zombie Boat are tied with an impressive 6.00 KB/K.

Aww man, my ratio's gone down.

The challenge requirement to unlock the headpiece (Archangel) is "Get 10 kills shortly after using Glitch." I just got two more with it and I'm fairly certain it counts when killing other people who just used Glitch.

Like two-thirds of being good is knowing how the maps work. Not just the basic how to get from A to B and where the good running and camping spots are, but more importantly how to identify where the enemy team is now and where they'll be after you kill them based on your team's skulls and respawns. The other third is a good pair of headphones so you can hear people's slide farts.

Holy poo poo the players in TDM are loving terrible.

I can see why it has 50% of the userbase, it's like an endless field of potatoes to be harvested. Second game we played I called in a Mothership :psyduck:

The corner campers are completely hilarious, they're so awful. The elite tactic of 'jumping and shooting' defeats their tactical corner defense.

I really wish they'd do cryptokey bonus or double xp every day on a <10% game mode. Some of the lobbies are so loving dead, and it's only getting worse the more people on my friends list hit CHEATING ORANGE NUMBERS :siren:

I somehow managed to complete my glitch doubles last night. Two in one night, and both legit "glitch then shoot two mans" type of approach. I, by happenstance when finishing rejack, got a double as my final for that and it counted since I'd already finished the hive kills. Any advice on this one? I've seen suggestions to kill yourself and then go for it as well as using smoke and a thermal. Are these approaches realistic at all?

Here's what I did.

- play normal.
- if you go into rejack just wait and listen for the bullets to stop.
- rejack and hold the jump button to soar out of the smoke like some kind of vengeful banshee.

This had a 50% success rate for me and caused me to sorta like rejack. Extended mags also helps.

I'm specifically talking about the doubles, though. I already have all my normal rejack kills.

Also I fired off a game of domination today and tried to get some hive doubles. Apparently shooting the hives, having two people die from them to the point of it saying "hive kill" twice in rapid succession and saying "rapid kill" on the medals isn't enough. What am I missing about this?

Use Varix to get those longshots on all guns. Legitimate long shots require ridiculous ranges.

I'm one of the few people that like the HVK. I use rapid fire and laser sight because it fits my play style. The laser seems to allow some crazy 25ft plus hipfire kills. Rapid fire helps the time to kill. I use it like a smg and hipfire all the time.

I know other guns are statistically better, but they don't keep my interest.

These aren't that hard, especially for assault rifles. It's completely dependent upon maps, though, as there are quite a few that don't offer a long enough line of sight. Examples of where I've gotten long shots (all for lmg/assault/sniper):

Fringe: in front of grannie's house to in front of barn
Infection: in front of church to in front of house, fragle rock to a-side house, fragle rock jr to city hall
Evac: By pole outside of B to A
Havoc: Apc on C side to downed ship, apc on A side to pub rock
Hunted: B overwatch to path outside b hut, top side stretch
Redwood: several spots along endor, A-side entry to b to path from C by bunker
Stronghold: house window to whatever that building is across the rocky field
Breach: back of A sniper room to AC building

Other stuff:
Core - use the long barrel
Hardcore - aim lol

Those fuckers. In that case, I found shooting from A to C sniper spots on Breach and Fringe works well. Redwood is another map with long enough sight ranges to get them.

It's 45% off on the upgrade. Quite tempted to get it. Somewhat smartly, it works out to the same price as buying the full game at it's current 34% discount.

e: Not sure how much I care about campaign, since I had the twists spoiled for me. How is Zombies? Never really played a CoD game that that sort of thing.

Seriously, just farm these in hardcore. They were the least of my troubles in getting dark matter.

-e- pistols notwithstanding. Those were a bit more complicated but still manageable.

Did you like Der Riese? Also do you like being The Goon 1/4th of the time? If yes to either of those, try BO3 Zombies. Or get WaW/BO1 and play their zombies to get an idea on what to expect before hopping in.
