I refures to do such a think.. you could not pay me enough to lose al my equipment plus finsihed callanges.

LoL.. I did it once and my k/d ratio dropped significantly so I havent decided yet. I guess im just bored of sitting at 50. I have finished some challenges that I believe I will never get again so I might hold off.

Why do people care so much about their K/D? The only think I hate to loose when I prestige is pro perks.

I'm with you there! Some of the pro perks are a pain in the ass to get back.

But I did see this one 15 prestige guy and he had an animated playercard thought that was pretty cool.

What im not liking is how right before you get into a match (ps3) and it is setting up. All of a sudden the whole damn system locks up completely. Not sure who to blame on that one.

If you're a TDM player, like myself, then it's indicative of your effectiveness in regards to helping your team win. That and my accuracy matter to me.

I don't care that much, but I like knowing that it means I'm "above average" when I have a higher K/D ratio :laugh: Some people go way too far with it, though, just camping in order to get a high K/D ratio. How does that mean you're any good? It means you're lazy and like to artificially increase your statistics to prove you have no fun playing online. :rofl:

reading this made me realize one thing.... is COD now some kind of RPG or something? you are treating it like a WOW player would treat his character...

what happened to the time when FPS games were all about skill? and experience , too.... like it was about how good you were with your controller, the weapons, the physics, and the map you are in, and nothing else... no experience points, no killstreaks, no perks, etc ....

Look at the score - none of my team were capturing bases so I just gave up and tried to get me some kills.

Also, I've just lost about 15k credits because of a bug. It's like the bug which doesn't save classes except this time I didn't just get reset back to my credits minus purchases..I lost the credits too :x

New video - Domination Nuketown again..testing out the Stoner. Seems good - might be awesome with extended ammo and reflex sight.

I hear ya on that one. I was at 3.30 when I prestiged yesterday and by the time I was level 18, my K/D ratio had dropped to 3.26 already. Part of that was a three bar connection for every game but still, for me at least, going prestige mode negatively impacts your K/D until about level 25-30.

I was playing a bit of Black Ops earlier. One of my friends swears by the MPL with a Suppressor, but I cannot make it work for me. It takes far too many shots to be effective, in my opinion. I'm also not too confident with the weapon recoil and the iron sights. I tend to run it with a Dual Magazine and Grip, but I decided to give the Suppressor a go. It works but it doesn't really complement my play style. Suppressors just don't seem to work for me in Black Ops for some reason. On the plus side, I hit Rank 41 and unlocked the Spectre again. I love it! It does everything brilliantly. I'm considering using the Kiparis when I declassify it. I've seen an increase in people using it, and I was surprised by how little recoil it had. My previous memory was that it had high recoil and wasn't extremely effective. However, my opinion changed.

I've also seen a lot more AK-47 rifles with GP-20 Grenade Launchers attached. The Grenade Launchers are quite effective in Black Ops, despite not being extremely commonly used. I used the Extended Magazine with my AK-47, but after 'borrowing' models with Grenade Launchers from other gamers, I've been convinced to consider buying the launcher. I'm not sure whether to invest in the Launcher for the AK-47, or waiting until I can purchase the Commando and fitting the Grenade Launcher to it instead.

I tried the AK74u out earlier. It definitely doesn't feel as powerful, so hopefully it'll lose that 'uber-gun' status people have given it. Surprisingly, I found success with the M14 and Masterkey combination. One excels at long range and the other welcomes fools at point-blank ranges. I got a triple hitmarker with the Masterkey, followed up with another two shots in order to kill all of the guys. I was disappointed.
