It's actually not that bad. Levels 1-20 fly by like it's nothing. 21-44 is when a lot of the new weapons are unlocked, so you have those challenges to get XP from, and certain contracts may apply to them. 45-50 is a straight grind, so I just focus on kills and contracts.

I like the 10th prestige personally. That's where I plan on stopping at.

It does go by pretty quickly, 1-30 flies by. I usually just stick with the same 4 guns and get xp from them and the perks. Doing the contracts helps too. Xbox has problems with connections too. We do get a lot of perks and probably have more servers than the ps3 people but I run into lag and glitchy people too.

I haven't noticed that, but I'll start checking out backgrounds now. That's definitely a wtf.

For levels 40-50. I keep it simple. Famas for the smaller maps, Galil or M14 for the larger ones. Extended mags. Scavenger and Sleight of Hand. Spy plane, SAM turret, care package. Every bit of XP helps.

Yeah, I see it all the time. 2nd prestige rocking the 15th background.

And here is a 24hr prestige guide.

I was playing in a match the other day with someone who was on their 13th prestige. It is the highest one I've seen and that is the first time I had seen it. I also saw someone with the 9th prestige badge. I've seen plenty of everything below 9 but have yet to see a 14 or 15.

I only rock 5 different guns the whole game. Famas, MP5K, classified shotgun, ak74u, and then when I get to lvl 44 its all commando. I love that gun. level them all the way up in xp. I like using that hardline pro as well. you can change out crappy care packages.

I use different killstreaks but its usually between spy plane, care package, cobra, chopper gunner, and dogs. Rack up a ton of kills against newbs when i let the dogs out..lol

Famas, really? What is this Rainbow Six Vegas or Counterstrike? Seriously I never understood why people love the Famas so much. It's a crap gun in the real world, so why isn't it a crap game in the game world? The M4 is the same, in the real world unless it has been modified with the heavier Marksman barrel and using the higher grain load ammo it really doesn't have all that great of stopping power. Personally the G3, AK 47/74 and HB SCAR are the best real world assault rifles because they utilize the 7.62 road which has much better stopping power. Why can't game developers get this right? The 9mm is another useless round as it's muzzle velocity is too high (like the 5.56 round) and unless you you jacketed hollow points does nothing more than just produce a through and through GSW. But I digress.

yeah I agree on most of that. The Famas is a nice gun but I think it takes a rak of bullets to kill someone, and fires too fast for me making it more inaccurate. I also hate prestiging because I have to use all the stupid guns until lvl 17 when my baby AK74u is available. After that, thats really the only gun I use.

Hardline, scavenger, marathon, slight of hand, warlord for me.. depending on game. Napalm (favorite), chopper, dogs or chopper gunner. I mite change that bc I dont get very many kills w the gunner or I get shot down quickly

Bro, I hear ya. But in this game, it is a beast. ADS accuracy for long distance, yet it rock and rolls for hip-firing up close. I don't even bother with sights or scopes. I'm trying to prestige like crazy, so I'm not picky right now. It just works.

If I could pick any 7.62 rifle in the real world, it would be the HK417. And btw, the AK74 is 5.45mm.

I love the Hacker class...You can get so many free *gifts*, I'll say, with hacker pro. There's nothing like embarrassing someone who just put down a sentry gun by hacking it and using it against them. I do the same with the turrets.

What do you guys think of the snipers in this one? I have only used them a few times but each time I was disappointed with it. I used to snipe quite a bit in Modern Warfare 1 & 2 but in this one it just seems different. It's the only reason I have 3 Assault classes and no snipes

To me, having snipers in this games multiplayer is pretty much pointless. Most of the maps are too small to even attempt sniping and the ones aren't only have one or two sniping spots that everybody knows so going there is pretty much an instant death. The only map I can think of where you have some options is Array (probably my favorite map btw).

I think they nerfed the snipers SOO much that they become useless...

How about the motherfu*king RCXD. I have died by that thing ~150 times, the second closest is Chopper Gunner @ 45 times. That is unfair.

Make it a 5 kill streak at least.

Excuse Me!!! Array is the absolute worst level in the game by far. I always do bad on that level. I hate it and everyone aI play with does too.

RCXDs are almost equivalant to predetor missles. I ALWAYS died by them. I really mean that because I counted. Ive been hit by 5 preds in a row, and 7 out of 10 regularly. It was always me and it was just one more reason I hated MW2

ok so a couple days ago I was playing and was hungry so I went downstairs for about an hour. I had just left the game on the main menu like a party room. So I come back and I have 0 dollars all of the sudden. :wtf2:

I stared at it for a minute and restarted the game but everything I did, I still had $0. Needless to say I was pissed that night. Luckily, I was like lvl 25 or something and had already bought the AK74 and all perks and attatchments I use. But still :wtf2: is that crap now. Screw connections, THAT is an issue.. then back to connections. If I was lvl 17 or lower, the PS3 is going out the window.

I thought it was just me. I was in a party today and this one dude had $0 too all of the sudden. He was pissed obviously, but I told him it happened to me too 2 days ago.

:wtf2: :argh

Someone must have used the new "Rob You Blind" Perk. Gotta be careful.

Seriously, that is disturbing. Money is vital those early levels. Now I want to go play and see if my loot is intact!!

Yeah I hate the RC cars. I've gotten the hang of hearing them out (I have full surround so it makes it easier) and trying to kill them before they get to me, quit moving and try to play dead. I've had atleast 5 or 6 pass by me just today.

I've got the Rob You Blind Pro, it also allows you to steal the XP that the enemy players earned in the mach. But in all seriousness that really sucks about the money loss thing. I really hope its not some new hack that people can do. Did you report it?

Yeah the RC cars are quite annoying although I love to use them :chuckle: I swear I can never blow them up even when my dot is directly on the thing when I'm shooting. A good defesne against them is if you hear them coming and you know the direction, stay where you are, drop a claymore and step back. Car gets taken out and you're still alive with some extra points :bigthumb:

Yeah if I've done that before too. You have to shoot on the ground in front of them as they come to make up for any lag that may be between you, the servers, and the guy driving it
