Would like to note that there is the potential
for the killstreaks to get pretty crazy...there can be two or possibly three up at a time...not sure. There have been times when I've been getting nailed by both an enemy chopper an harrier or ac-130. So carrying a launcher as a secondary is very helpful.
Also of note is that the killstreaks can fight each other. I've blown choppers out of the sky with a predator or ac-130. I also know that after I launched a harrier, I got a bonus for killing a chopper, so I think there was even some automatic dogfighting going on.
It's very difficult to shoot down the care package though, that chopper gets in and out very quick.
Theres even an emergency airdrop that is 9 kills I think, that will drop 4 care packages at once. That tends to precede a bit of madness, but what's even better is stealing them all.
So yeah, it can get really crazy, but nearly all can be shot down, so teamwork can make a huge difference. I alone was able to
pretty much deny UAVs to the other team.
I still contest that the better console FPS players could hold their own against kb/mouse users, but there has never been a game to incorporate cross-platform play for me to test my theory. Shadowrun might have had it if I'm remembering correctly, but that was so bad that nobody played it. CoD4 controls were so good that playing on a console was a piece of cake.
Methinks that most of the objective games are going to turn into a battle to get killstreaks. I mean, can you imagine trying to play domination and capture a flag outside with a harrier and a chopper flying around?
It's going to get a wee bit retarded methinks.
Guns can fire at anything but ac-130s, counter uavs and uavs. Those fly really high and require missles. You can't even see the direction of the uav on the radar...you have to literally look up and scan the sky for them, which is easier said than done, so even if someone is dead set on destroying yours and all uavs, ittl be up for a while at least.
I highly doubt they coded the game to allow multiple types of airborne gunships simultaneously. That would make this shit just stupid.
You mean the g36 assault rifle?
The sky can actually get filled at a certain limit, if you call in a chopper then it won't deny you, but it tells you it will deploy when the airspace is clear, and it queues it up so you don't have to keep jamming the button.
Who else is looking forward to xbox live's server crash tomorrow?
How many of you list yourselves as "Underground" on XBL?
I hate all of you.
Seriously.
Please dont' even say something like that, haha. The last time was very frustrating I hope it doesn't happen again.
I don't even know why MS makes you pick a category, but I think "Underground" and "Pro" are funny. I picked Recreation, because I play for recreation.
Do they even do anything? I've switched between Recreation, Underground and Pro and haven't really seen any difference
