The Nuke...

[omega 616]

Thats an odd choice for kill streaks, 11 straight gun kills. Even pred, CG and nuke would a little easier.

This is true, but it kind of ties in to the MW2 experience for me back when. Basically, if I had the 7/11/25, once i got to harriers, things would get tense as I hoped my harrier and I could get to the CG, and upon finally getting it I would scramble to a spot to lie down and hope for the best.

With 3/11/25, I can help out the team when I'm not doing amazingly, and I can play in a less tense way until I get to CG and it's like "oh hey, look at that!" Let's go for it then! " instead of "okay, got the harrier, but it's never guaranteed and I hope I can get to CG, but by then they'll probably have their stinger classes ready <:O"

In short, it was a more fun way to potentially get to a nuke. More effective too if you're playing well enough to get to a harrier anyway, as the CG kind of catches them off-guard without any indicative lower killstreaks. Just make sure to have a team that won't get the spawns all crazy and get people spawning behind you.

I like having UAV and UAV jammer, when I hear they have a UAV up I deploy both of mine. It blinds theres, wasting there kill streak but it gives us quite an advantage.

Only downside is it only leaves room for one potent kill streak, unless you use the air drop one, forget it's name but you get 4 boxes.

I've had 20ish nukes so far... the trick is really not thinking about it. If you think "Oh shit I've got 4 kills if i get 3 more i get a harrier and than 4 more a chopper and than 14 more a nuke!!!!" you're going to fail.

Yeah it's funny how it's always on the maps you least expect it to happen that you get those massive killstreaks.

I certainly wasn't expecting it on Terminal, I'm terrible at that map. Yet whenever I got onto Wasteland or Afghan it was like 'AARGH! Must... build... killstreak....' and fail repeatedly.

From my limited time playing Cod 4, I think my best kill streak was 2.
Maybe 3.

I ran a very high death:kill ratio.

I hate Cod...

Lol everyone is terrible at the start! You get better with time. Then again, multiplayer just isn't for some people.

Well, I think I just hate the style of play of Cod to be honest! It's very campy, and I like running around in the open like a loon. In Team fortress 2 I'm actually way above average, I'm just god damn awful at Cod. It's not a good sign when I can't tell my enemies from my teammates...

Pity there isn't a badge for resurrection of a thread, it's died more times than Jesus.

My threads have a strange habit of being spontaneously necro'd. My MW2 Anger thread lasted months

I've only gotten three, and two of them were thanks to the n00b combo.

(Harrier, Chopper Gunner, Nuke for those who are curious)

 

[Canid117]

I got my nuke in an airdrop once, the luckiest haul ever.

Thats impossible the Airdrop does not drop the Nuke.

I once went on a 35 kill streak, with Predator-Harrier-Chopper Gunner. I got nokills with the Predator, so I madeit to the Harriers on my own. After that match,I realized if I had just replaced the Predator with Nuke, I could have done it. Needless to say,I was a little bummed out.

If you can get a 35 kill streak using ANY setup, you're more than good enough to get a nuke!

That was just dumb luck. I've never been able to replicate it. I've come close, but once again, it was without the nuke. Had a 22-0 game with the same setup.

Chopper Gunner just ain't as good these days. Gets shot down real fast - I get much more luck with the AC130!

MW2 is basically all dumb luck

Honestly one was in there, the others were ammo crates and sentry guns.

Jesus died only once what are you talking about. I think Jean Grey would be a better analogy.

There is a probability table on that page and either you were hacking or were on a hacked server.

It may have been the second one, I picked up the crates from one of my dead team mates. Nice to see other benefitting from cheaters for a change

It was the first person to come to mind, plus I don't know much about X men ... he is off X men, right?

She and yes.

The only nuke I ever got was the one in Civilization IV. I say, while that game is awesome, it has some ridiculous balance issues. I mean an ICBM should fucking ANNIHILATE an enemy city. I dropped 4 (COUNT EM 4!) on an enemy city an they just brushed it off! They were still standing tall and kicking my ass! And don't get me started on an archer unit that killed my bombers.

Anyway, I don't even own CoD MW 2. Even if I did I probably would never get the nuke, because by the time I got used to the mechanics 20 billion players would be unkillable gods. All with the aiming of an aimbot.

Wow I sure know how to deviate from the topic, don't I?

 

[pha kin su pah]

Uninstall the map packs, seriously, whenever i party up with friends who don't have either of map packs. i think after 10 TDM games, there wasn't one where i picked up under 30 kills.

Just to let you know.... this was great advice. I got the nuke on the second night of trying after doing that!

Congrats. next stop is gunship/dogs in black ops.
