My ratio is brutal mainly because my goal in all of this is to unlock things. I could give a hot damn if I get a 1 kill - 10 death score ... If I need one kill to get an acog sight on a TAR and there's a swarm of enemies in front of me I'm going to dive headfirst into that meat grinder.

I'm so close to level 30. I picked up an iphone app to keep track of my challenges and have been mapping out which will get me the most points. It's been a good strategy so far. I'm not very good so it takes a me a long time to level up. I was successful shooting down two harriers last night thanks to cold blooded. What a great perk.

I'm like that too. Unlocking the tactical knife is a challenge. Pistol vs. LMG/noobtube/anything is challenging.

I just like shooting people. I do admit though, when I am really stuck on a gun, I do my best to every possible option I can for it.

Yeah I've only got two or three classes I use with any regularity. I couldn't care less about unlocking stuff. Just gimme the M16 with an ACOG and a USP with the tactical knife and I'm a happy camper.

Ground War is by far the most fun to play online as far as I'm concerned. There's just so many people playing, it's incredibly easy to get 20 or 30 kills.

Haha perhaps camper was the wrong choice of words there. I'm a happy Duty player?

Although I did have an unreal spot today that I got like 8 kills out of...on Afghan, on the side of the bunker where those poppies are, there's a big rock. You chill just behind that and it's an unreal chokepoint. Nobody can get to you from the bunker, so you just hammer guys. It's even better if you've got a buddy to cover your ass. I did for a while then I guess he peaced and I ended up getting knifed in the back.

^^Nice.

I found an awesome spot on Afghan. You go to the top of that sniper cliff thing and walk off the cliff to the left by the large tree there. When you do you land on a little ledge with a bush on it and you can annhilate guys that are in the cave, bunkers or running towards the bunker from the cliff. Only you are open to people running around by the downed plane, but if you have a buddy sniping from up top then you are golden.

This is were scavenger comes in hand. Go to the little bunker and place a claymore right in the door and hide in the corner and snipe down on the one spot by the Humvees. I can get 10-11 kill plus my pavelow and ac130 kill after that.

Once some dude runs in and gets blasted then you pick up his package and put another claymore in and your set.

When you spawn by the humvees at the beginning you can sit in the tall grass and tear them up in the bunkers.

Also if you go up the hill by the humvees there is a rock that you can lay on the backside and snipe across the map were the AA gun is and the "sniper hill".

But if I have a hard time during the game with snipers I pull out the javiline and just start making it rain. they will stop sniping by then.

It's 12 to 18 players, and either Team Deathmatch or Domination. The Domination ones are alright, but I'm mainly in it for the TD's. There's just so much going on all the time. Which I guess can be a negative too, since it makes it a lot easier for there to be choppers and such called in all the time.

Just search quickscoping on youtube, some good tutorials on how to effectively use it in games. Yeah if you want to try it out, the WA2000 is probably not a good idea to start with since it does not even 1 shot kill. It's definitely not easy in the beginning and will be frustrating at first, but if you stick with it and take time to practice with it, you will be unstoppable.

I will be happy to announce to everyone, after 1 and a half grueling weeks I have finally fully unlocked my Tar-21. That FMJ was a pain in the ass to get 40 kills with. I could only get maybe 1-3 kills on every map until I played Junkyard or whatever it was. At B Flag, that building there's always guys that camp there so I just camp outside and nail them and I got 16 kills doing that!!!

I also tried Hardcore for the first time, and good lord it's difficult. Not only do you not have people running around you die so damn fast!!! I found it a camp fest, all my teammates were just sitting there. Kind of boring TBH

Did you know tip:
In the Highrise level, everyone know that there is a crane you can get on to at the side of the map. However, I discovered you can travel all the way up to the highest point of the Crane. It's the perfect place to defend flag B (if playing Domination).
I was up there yesterday and got many kills. I literally ran out of ammo for my sniper rifle and pistol while I was up there. You are really exposed, but no one looks that high up, so I was picking people off left and right.

Hardcore can definitely be boring, especially Deathmatch. It all depends who you are playing with. The guys I know all run and gun and like to keep it pretty tactical, so that makes for some fun times. It's also pretty fun to play on objective based game types. Ususally makes for shorter rounds and more action. You won't see people Kill Streak cheesing, either.
