You have to realise that there are better game modes to rank up on? Domination most certainly is NOT one of them!
Sabotage, if it lasts the whole way gets you a massive game bonus (I hate that people don't plant on purpose to get that but others seem to like it
).Search and Destroy, 50 points per kill. So if you're good at killing people this will make you fly through. You can do this game on normal mode, so doesn't have to be hardcore. Plus you get a good game bonus on this also.
Plus on hardcore we exaggerate the amount of accidental team deaths. It's a pretty cool way of ranking up a hell of a lot of kills, again if you're a good player.

Hey! you were hiding behind a car, I was hardly going to walk up and check whether you had a 'tache or not
Not my fault I'm going through a team killing phase
I did manage to shoot Arrow last night, but it was only after my bullets had passed through that "spiderwoman" person on the other team s not a lot i could do there.

Yes, I should really have qualified that by saying that it's the game mode by which I can most comfortably up quickly.
S&D for example, I can get a few kills, but without more practice I'd struggle to match my Domination scores. The same with some of the other game modes. I'm fine with Domination, Team Deathmatch, Groundwar and Headquarters, but for all of those I decided that all things considered, Domination was the easiest for me.
I think, what I may do, is get to the point where I've got half-decent weapons again and then start playing S&D etc a bit more. It's only me being lazy that's prevented me up until now.

I only ever get that one by accident.
The last time it was on Overgrown. Just to the side of the house next to A, by the burnt out tank, looking onto B. One fella came around the corner and crouched on B. I took the shot and got the challenge. I hadn't realised it but there was actually someone else just behind him, out of sight.
The easiest way to get this one though is to snipe a doorway/archway. Strike is a good one. When you start at the A side of the map at the top of the road, break right and go towards C. When you get to the building that overlooks the archway to the courtyard where C is just go to the side and take up residence by the steps. You look directly onto the narrow archway that comes out from C. The number of times, particularly at the start of the game that more than one person tries to run through there gives you a very good chance of taking two of them out with the one bullet.
Other than that, anywhere where there's a doorway, snipe it.
The world's most popular games consoles contain hazardous chemicals and metals, Greenpeace has claimed.
Nintendo Wii, Sony PlayStation 3 Elite and Microsoft Xbox 360 all failed the organisation's green electronics test, according to its report Playing Dirty.
Both the Xbox 360 and PS3 were found to contain "very high" levels of phthalates, which are used to soften flexible materials such as wires and cable coatings. The chemicals, one of which is known to interfere with sexual development in mammals, are not permitted in toys sold in the EU.
However, Nintendo was identified as the worst culprit, with its environment policies described as "non-existent".
Although all three firms are complying with EU laws, the organisation said they were not doing enough to eliminate dangerous chemicals from their merchandise.
Dr. Kevin Brigden of the Greenpeace Science Unit said: “Whether game consoles are classified as toys or not, they can still contain hazardous chemicals and materials that could harm humans. The technology is available for the manufacturers to design out toxics and produce greener game consoles now."

So males who are on their console all day have less sex? What a shocker!
These chemicals are only dangerous if you ingest them, so unless you take a bite out of your 360, in frustration, or lick your Wii in appreciation then you're probably safe.
They're not permitted in toys as kids (and some adults) like to put things in their mouths.

lmao....sorry images came flooding in when I read that
The number of creative ways in which Nintendo are looking to utilise the Wii's capabilities, that could actually become a problem at some point, particulary if they venture down more risque avenues! lol

Did you enjoy Saturday!!
Hello everyone...
New to the forums, but have been reading them loads for a good few months, finally decided to join up!
I love COD4, am not the best at it but I do enjoy it.
Not been in a clan before, so the thought kinda scares me...but from reading this thread you all seem like a nice bunch!
Anyway, just thought I'd pop by and say hello...and go from there maybe!

)Chris - don't talk about yourself that way
Nope, I didn't add you! Thought I'd say hello first...
My tag is RogueBrogue. It'll be good to have people to play with that are actually up for discussing tactics and such like!
My friends are all playing GTA at the mo, which I did start playing...but then I made the mistake of going back to COD...and I can't stop! Hehe.

Well any discussion is good discussion! Haha.
I'm about rank 11 or 12 (I think!) on 3rd prestige (the green cross type one).

Dragon you'd be missed terribly if you weren't there! You made me giggle last night with your "anti social" comment!
And trust me. I was not in the mood for giggling last night. Specially on that match!!!
hi guys
some great games last night, sorry I shot 1 or 2 of you (in hardcore mode) - still fun
I will be on again later tonight
I managed to rank up a few more levels, played headquarters after you all left

I don't play hardcore much, purely because the last time I played it the backlash I got for acidentally team killing was terrible!
My favourite game modes are sabotage and search and destroy....

You don't get backlash from us. We do see the funny side unless it's ALL of the time.
