Do the icons show above friendly equipment in hardcore?

Never play it, but pretty lame if they still do and people still swipe at them.

Yes there is a flag above your friendly equipment even in hardcore.

I had someone destroy my Sam this evening. Wish I could communicate with them at the time.

Sometimes I stand infront of them when they are firing so they end up killing themselves as payback.

I prefer hardcore because one shot at the body usually kills with the MSR, but on normal mode it takes 2 unless you get a head shot.

I've just got my 500 head shots with the MSR, I've only got the 1000 one to get now, but I want to Prestige level 2, will this reset my weapon achievements?

No it will remain at 500 but the msr will become locked when you prestige (this can then be unlocked with a token). The challenges for get so many head shots and get so many kills with this weapon will carry on but ALL weapons are reset and most will become locked until you start leveling up again.

Each time you Prestige you'll get a token to unlock something and when you prestige again, whatever you choose, will be unlocked from the start but you wont be able to use it until you unlock create a class at rank 4

So all weapons/perks/killstreak awards and things will become locked when you Prestige but it doesn't take long to unlock them all again

Oh cheers.

I've already unlocked the MSR with my first Prestige token, so will probably unlock the claymore with my next one.

Just not keen on having to earn the perks back. I'm lost without Blindeye and assassin pro.

Yeah I like using the MSR now (used the AS50 before) but find the MSR better for me and use the MP9 for back up. i'm gonna unlock the MSR when I get to prestige 6 (4 levels to go)

They may be going for their Sit Rep Pro perk. Destroying friendly sentry & sam's etc count towards getting the pro perk.

Yes I know but I wish they wouldn't use my stuff to 'earn' it with.

I can reuse a trophy system if it hasn't been used up and sentry gun and Sam are more useful up than being destroyed by a selfish team member.

I don't mind the odd accident, I've done it a couple of times. I've gone around a corner and instinctively knifed a sam or sentry gun that is infront of me, only to find out it was a friendly gun or sam.

It's a shame the game allows that to happen.

Quote:
So the Elite Content Cal isn't updated yet but I'm going to go ahead an tell you what drops tomorrow. Also those guys need to update the categories to be more accurate. Will get on them about that. The June drop is a Spec Ops mission called Arctic Recon. And 3 new Faceoff maps Vortex, U-Turn, and Intersection. As soon as Activision releases Some screens and/or vids I'll link them here.]

And me.

For **** sake.

The content calendar quite clearly says 'MAP', 'MISSION', 'CLASSIFIED'.

Now yes - a Face Off map is a 'map', but check the icons. Multiplayer maps have an icon of three dudes, Face Off maps have a different icon.

Yet again they're not delivering on what the content calendar has. When they came out with the Face Off maps the calendar said two MP maps and we only got one.

Some time off work, double XP yesterday. Why not play some COD?

I forgot how bad it is during the day. Either I get put in lobbies with unemployed people that have racked up ridiculous amount of days played ... or Europeans, especially the French.

Next COD needs to have an option to disable being put in lobbies with gamers from France. Every French gamer is a camper, its actually staggering, everyone!

I was in a lobby against players Ranked 7th and 52nd at FFA. And what were they doing? They were boosting together!! I made sure I won the match, ensuring I killed them as often as possible (three double Pred hits). Then I left the lobby.

At least you didn't have a problem with lag.

It is horrible playing when everytime a helicopter comes it starts behaving like a stuck record.

You put down a mine or move a couple of feet and end up back where you began.

The game hasn't been as laggy as it once was for me for a while, thanks to the "Disable DLC" option. With DLC enabled, it takes ages to find a match, and when a match is found its usually laggy.

So what have the powers that be done with the latest update? Took away the "Disable DLC" option.

::Shakes head:: They're so inept, its laughable.

Did they? That's weird cos they only just renamed the option in the last patch.

At least that's the last of the face-off maps! (so they say)

Aw what, they took away the disable dlc ?. That seemed to me, the only way I could get a game on Dome, was to disable it. I wish there was some kind of update to circle through each of the MP maps instead of throwing up the same maps time after time. I had a few games yesterday afternoon and we did the same map (Village) twice in a row and I never seem to get to go on Dome now. It always seems to choose the newer maps.

Yeah, for months the option actually didn't make any sense. I think it was ...

DLC Enabled = Currently Disabled
DLC Disabled = Currently Enabled

That was just confusing, how did that get through testing? And how did it last that long before they fixed it.

Them removing the option totally sucks balls, not only is it harder to get a match now, but it was great for getting lobbies full of Nubz, ripe for a slaying!
