Not too sure but maybe have a look in gamestop, they're bound to have a few second hand copies.

SuperValu have been doing them at 39.99 for a while now. Not always on display, you have to ask at the desk.

There's already two smgs in the game that beat that. You just have to watch the pros play to see nearly all of the use the msmc and the pdw.

Chicom + FMJ + Fast mag + Fast trigger finger = Win all day long

Kells...

You don't even need a fast trigger finger for the Chicom,it fires fast enough :P.

Attempting to get diamond guns is quite frustrating,especially the headshots parts.

Other bits are easy

It takes ages alright, I have two assault rifles gold and two smg's are on the way, no attachments or perks doesn't help k/d ratio much

I've diamond on the smg's and now working through the shotguns. I personally think the best game mode to play with no perks or attatchments is free for all.

Use overkill with your other SMG, no perks or attachments and stock up on lethals.. easy way to get the 150 kills

its easy enough to do if you go into demolition or hardpoint or big scoring games, think it took me about 6-7 matches? no perks or attachments and you do both challenges at once

If you use overkill can you equip the same gun in the primary and secondary slot?

I was using overkill and then secondary gunfighter and just trying to rank two different primarys at the same time.

Once you get past the 100 headshots getting gold is easy enough, but that grind to get there is awfully tedious. Just 99 headshots left to get with the Chicom.

No they have to be different guns

I'm working on the shotguns too, just finished the s12. The one shot kills took me ages, it doesn't have much range! Getting through the KSG quick enough, don't get as many kills as with the s12 but they're nearly all one shots! Haven't really used the m1216 much, is it any use?

Working on the launchers, have gold SMAW and RPG just working on the stinger now.

The last 2 challenges are a bitch.

Good luck trying to:

1: Find a lobby using AGR's
2: Destroy that fúcker

I have gold on the Remington and the KSG. KSG is easy enough to rank up (I actually really like using it and the range is really good with 2 shot kills over fair enough distances) because more often than not you get the one shot kill which is what you need most in terms of ranking up.

Moved onto that M12 thingy and it's awful. Rarely get one shot kills with it. Haven't used the S12 before but been killed a few times by it and I imagine it's easier to one shot with that than the M12.

I only ever see AGRs from package drops, rare enough, fun little things when you get one though, watching people panic and run away as you trundle after them launching rockets :pac:

And they take two hits to kill as well, luckily enough enemy team called one in on Hijacked so just sat on one of the balconys and took one out easily enough....the harder ones to get now are the user controlled ones as it seems it's only dragon fires that are like that....

What kill:Death ration do people get? i normally manage on a good game 15:14 with an assualt riffle, and that's not being a camper or anything!!!

45-23
15-44
32-8
11-28
and so on

I can't play long sessions of this game it just wrecks my head.

KERSPLAT!

Usually about a 1.5 K/D depending on map and the weapon I'm using but as above the game is very inconsistant and sometimes I could go 10-25 or something

Start of game,I played horribly as did most I play with lately I've been playing decently enough,2-3kd most games.I've noticed I've become more objective orientated in this with the captures being worth something and capture kills being worth double the normal points.

Usually go postive but not massively, I ragequit a lot from being thrown into almost over games, blops2 is awful for it, being stuck on teams losing by 100 points on a dom match, fcuk that.

The VTOL and one of the other higher ones counts too, possibly warthog, which ever one is like the ac130. You're talking 3 rockets to take them down though, worth carrying black hat to take the first hit.

Those maps look cool, I like the skate park and the one with the flood, nice addition, good to see a snow map back too

i know i asked this already, but...
is there anywhere cheaper than psn store to buy the season pass for ps3 ?

dan hibiki

so torn about getting these maps. i dont think i like the game enough to get them, despite how good they look.

Can't wait to use the RC XD on Grind -

That lodge map reminds me of Estate - James Bond here we come!!!

Whats the story with match making these days. I dont seem to be able to find any games and after an age I get put in a game halfway through and with 3 yellow bars but feels more like 2.
Normally play Merc or Chaos Moshpit, but even Core TDM doesnt find me a game.
I've played around with preferences - Any, Normal, Best and they all are really slow to find a game.

Up until a week or two this wasnt a problem - maybes its some 'hotfix' they put in that doesnt like me?

Doesn't seem to have improved much to me, but i hear Vonderhaar is concerned that the fore grip attachment may be of very limited use on most guns so maybe they'll buff it...priorities at Treyarch.

Someone put up a video on youtube (Drift0r maybe?) showing how it has no positive affect on any gun bar the Scar-H and it makes a couple of guns drop in accuracy. Hardly game breaking. What is game breaking though is not being able to get into a game...

Some nights I get into good lobbies on KC, where it's majority Irish and UK players. Then other nights I struggle to get into any of them and when I do it's nothing but Spanish/French/German players and my connection takes a nose dive.

Exactly, can't see a fix coming anytime soon unfortunately which is sad because if they sorted the connection problem the game would be fairly well balanced.

I think the slow matchmaking kicked in over Xmas - maybe the volume of people playing is killing the matchmaking servers.
I dont remember previous CODs being as bad as this to find a game.

KERSPLAT!

Could it be your ISP? The reason I ask is I have no problems at all finding a game, usually within 15-20 seconds. With a full party it can take longer but for the most part it's OK and hasn't changed from what I can see.

Connection to me seems to have improved alot since release as well IMO. Now don't get me wrong, there are times when I have THOSE games but usually it's grand

Makaveli

Seems to be random. Was finding games easily on Xbox last night but the night before on PS3 it was hit and miss.

Luap

When will us psn users get the Dlc?

miralize

28th Feb I think.

Luap
