The Calling Card is going to be a pain. The only one I think works is "Powerful", and I don't have it unlocked.

Protip for getting double glitch kills - prime a grenade and glitch after tossing it. This is also a good way to get kicked out of a HC game when you get three of your team and three of the other team with one toss.

It's super easy to unlock that one, fwiw. You should be able to get it in two or three games with the purifier.

That almost beat Ven's mega team kill from BLOPS2. Almost. I need to review that bookmarked game footage when I get home.

I got mine by throwing C4 on dom flags, then glitching when the alert goes off and detonating. It'll take a few tries to get the doubles, but it was far more effective than nading, glitching, and praying.

Edit: Hardpoint as well. If you know where the next HP is, you can deploy C4 early.

I might need to try this for my hero armor glitch kills. They are neigh unto impossible otherwise.

Man. I never enjoyed sniping until I was grinding through them. The P-06 is so fun. Loved the Locus and SVG. gently caress the Drakon unless you put an ELO on and treat it as an AR.

Also, hardcore.

I'm at 88% complete. Lethals have been the slowest for me. 300 kills with throwing axes, thermite, trip mines. Ow. Not sure 100% is possible with half the game modes completely dead on PC.

Yeah I've been doing them in hardcore. Except the 100 kills with SVG, I find that TDM pubbies walk right into that thing - or go to all the predictable windows at least.

Yeah SVG didn't matter since you get 1 shot kill even if you shoot them in the foot. That gun's ridiculous.

I found most of them were easier to grind in core, except the Drakon. That's the only one that you have to get a headshot to get a 1-shot from. The p06 and locus are chest/head I believe.

They're not. It's a fully legal gambling ring (it doesn't pay out cash) for people authorized to pay via credit/bank debit card (ie, adults), or gift cards (anybody).

Treyarch has nothing to do with this. They have to do this because Activision told them to. The money from supply drops goes straight to Activision.

The problem I have with BDobbins is he is very cynical and tends to only look at issues from one point of view. When he does consider the other side of an issue, he tends to brush it off very quickly.

It means they put zero thought into it and it won't break the game "balance" between specialists.

This Reddit post claims to have dug up two variables from the patch three weeks ago:
WEAPON_GADGET_THIEF: Ability: Thief
WEAPON_GADGET_THIEF_DESC: When Blackjack kills an enemy whose Specialist item is active, he gets their Specialist item for himself.

If that's accurate, it sounds pretty bad to me.

It might be okay if Active just means they have the meter filled and ready to activate and Blackjack doesn't have to fill a meter before he can steal it.

I'd rather he had an ability more in line with what he does to your codkeys:

Rip Off: While this ability is active, whenever you kill an opposing player, you reset their Specialist ability cooldown to zero.

So is downloading other player's emblems and paintjobs just never gonna happen in this game? I thought that was one of their stated goals for the showcase. But it's been like five months and we still have to use lovely YouTube tutorials to re-create emblems we like.

I mean it would probably be a feature you'd end up having to unlock via supply drop anyway

Nope. I think it boiled down to fears on Activision's part of being sued over copyright issues.
