they were too small, and the angle was too severe

Is this really a bug? I might be mistaken but I'm pretty sure other CoDs have had rolling thunder/stealth bomber visible on the mini-map.

I fired up the PS4 and played a couple games over lunch. I unlocked the mx garand. Having played with the sheiva a lot recently, it definitely has a different feel to it. Slightly higher rate of fire for sure. I like it despite losing the ability to reload.

What are these kill counters on guns and why haven't I see them on the PC is there an option to turn it on and off? Also, ICR is a good gun if you don't suck.

NM just realized you have to do stupid poo poo like Prestige your weapons to get the option for it.

I did it with a Brecci because I had no idea what it looked like and was pretty curious, vanilla brecci isn't so bad either. Don't think I want to deal with prestiging an assault rifle twice.

I've found most guns to be good to prestige since they're ok without attachments. Shotguns on the other hand I want to kill myself grinding my way back to fast mags and long barrel / rapid fire.

Same, but snipers (except Drakon). I stupidly prestiged a bunch of weapons the first double weapon xp weekend because I thought for sure I'd level them all back up. NOPE!

That said, I have all the assault rifles double prestige and maxed except the sheiva (one prestige and max currently) and my shiny new MX Garand.

Do any of you have any tips for completing the Triple Threat challenge (getting a triple kill using a specialist ability; the passive ones like Overdrive, Glitch, etc)?

I had some luck with Psychosis but does anyone recommend a different ability? Or any map or mode that might make this easier?

I think Heat Wave is bugged for it and gives you like a way longer window to get the third kill after using or something

Active camo is pretty easy. I was going for the last unlock last night and I think I got the two doubles in a single game, so a triple isn't out of the question .

Hardcore domination and vision pulse. Shamelessly reposting this because it loving owned:

Edit: to be honest, use overdrive or psychosis for triples. The window for vision pulse is infuriating low.

Thanks chaps, I'll give hardcore domination a go, that might help it be easier. I'll keep plugging along with Psychosis as that has worked for a couple of them so far, but Overdrive sounds a good idea too, probably help more to get to places faster to find people after I've killed someone. I know Active Camo gives you a long duration to get kills in both while active and after it's broken, so that could work too to try to setup a triple kill.

I'll have to try Heat Wave more to see if it is bugged like that, I just finished it up for the specialist abilitiy challenges and I can't say I noticed anything like that happening but I'll equip it again and see what happens.
