Man, had a great match last night. Went 49-1 on underground kill confirmed. My streak was 33. I did not know that you do not get MOAB if you call in your killstreaks ... dang. I went through 4 sets of KS. Had 3 Reapers that I couldn't even call in.
I made a big push at the end to try to get MOAB b/c I thought I was still in the running for it, and finally died right before the match ended.

I wonder if I would've gotten it if I were really trying to get it though.

 

[DrunkenSano]

Wait, you have to get 25 straight kills without any kill streaks used for MOAB? So Specialist package would be the way to go then.

On the twitter feed they said they banned 1,600 cheaters/hackers yesterday.

Wonder if that'll improve things even more.

Pretty sure it only works with assault.

I personally haven't encountered any yet, but it's good to hear they're trying.

It's any strike package - 25 kills in a row without dying.

I have only seen videos of it working with the specialist. From what Ive read, you can also use support. If killstreaks are used, they must only be defensive like UAV, CUAV, and AUAV.

I'm positive it works with all 3. Watched videos of them being done just earlier today.

Also, wtf. How do you get 25 kills without dying once and I can't seem to take 2 steeps without being killed half the time?

Camping and/or incredible skill.

Man, me and my team were just getting raped last night. Seems like morale plays a huge part in how well you do overall, and it was just not happening for us.

I'm starting to finally get comfy with sniping. It's funny how easy it is to complain about how "easy" quickscoping is till you try it, or how it's an exploit etc - it is HARD. It only seems easy cause the killcam makes it look like they don't have to fully scope in or hit you with the crosshairs. Thats a total misconception - you absolutely need to scope in and nail them on your end. The killcam just doesnt show that and makes it seem unfair when you're on the receiving end (the explanation behind why that is long). Its never something I'll ever want to use aggressively but I feel like I need to know how to do it just to defend myself in a pinch. I have infinitely more respect for those who are good at it now that I've tried to join the club. The one shot kills are super satisfying though. Never could get the hang of sniping in mw2, and it was just terrible in blops, but I'm really enjoying it here for once.

I know morale can play a big part, we've had low moral the last few days but for us we absolutely raped last night. Probably the first night that we've played so far where we were shutting the other team down so well.
I think I've finally figured out the weapons I like/don't like and the perks that help my playstyle the most.

Yah, these guys were pretty bad, but I was playing with a full team and was in good position. There were guys I was shooting at that were trying to run through my bullets or something.. lol.

I haven't noticed any real legitimate cheaters yet. Just a set of boosters that openly admitted to boosting for MOAB, and some snipers that may have been using rapid fire controllers.

At least I got that toxic title from getting nuked on. Those idiots left the game after the boost, and I proceeded to dominate anyhow. I sent them a message and reported them.

Meaningless to boost in order to acheive something. I went months with out prestiging in MW2 to get that nuke emblem. The final nuke was so sweet .

 

[lokiju]

You can use more than one prestige token at once? That's sweet.

I wonder if I go back and prestige in MW2 if I would get a token. I never bothered to prestige in any COD except BLOPS.

Wait, what? I'm supposed to get a token for each prestige from Blops? Or only once?

 

[BD2003]

One for each past game, no matter how many prestiges. One for each mw3 prestige.

 

[lokiju]

Ah. Need to go rent MW2

 

[Kev]

Boosting could be so easy for the devs to prevent. Just make it so that if you kill the same guy over and over, the moab doesn't apply.

 

[Sixguns]

Anyone else having issues joining clans on Elite?

 

[Dominato3r]

No training mission at the beginning of the campaign now? :hmm:

 

[Sixguns]

Do you really need one still?

Didn't they stop doing that since COD4?

 

[BD2003]

There was one in cod 4, waw and mw2 for sure. Don't think blops had it though.

 

[Cuda1447]

Has anyone setup a ATCG Clan yet?

 

[JACKHAMMER]

Has anyone setup a ATCG Clan yet?

Would like to know this too.

 

[bucwylde23]

I just made an ATCG group. It's just #ATCG.

Not a clan, though. Someone else can do that.
