daniel-j[CSR] 03-05-2008, 10:41 PM Just some things I've thought of, will add other stuff later...
In order for your helicopter / airstrike to add up to another uav/airstrike/copter, you have to be on the same life as when you called the airstrike or chopper. A good idea is to wait until you die to call the chopper, so its kills can get you a new airstrike/chopper. However, once you die again, it will not help you for a new uav, etc..
An easy way to get the hot potato challenge is to throw a nade at your feet, and then pick it back up and throw it at someone. A good map for this is shipment.
If you plant a claymore facing a car, It basically turns your claymore into a giant car bomb that will have more range than the single claymore and kill in all directions near it. I think this also counts toward the dominoes challenge, but I am not certain.
No, the noob tube does not count toward the marksman challenges.
Don't underestimate people in last stand. Pistols are good in this game, and a good pistoler will rape you if you take too long to finish him off, like if you are trying to headshoot him or something.
That is all for now...
[SES]BaNsHee 03-05-2008, 10:47 PM Hmmm...Good stuff on the hot potato challenge. I didnt realize you could do that. Its one of 3 challenges Ive got left to do(4 more counter c4's and all the misery loves company are the other two).
{FSC}Godfather 03-05-2008, 10:57 PM ive been playing puzzle quest and N+ so much i havent played cod4 much at all, so i suck now heh
the claymore on the car is good shit that, i found it out a few weeks back and its really nice on a few maps

Yeah, I just figured it out tonight.
I normally just wait until i sneak up on a sniper camping at a window to get my misery loves companies, or something like that. Its fun to teabag them while cooking the nade if they are in prone...
Great tip on hot potatoe. I've been wondering how I was going to finish that one since I rarely have a frag tossed at me that isn't primed.
Bodom 03-06-2008, 01:09 PM im gonna start doing the hot tater thing
Pistols are good, but last stand isn't, hitting someone in prone one last shot is easier than them shooting you.
Good advice on the other stuff though. If I ever use a claymore, i'll try the car thing.
Bodom 03-06-2008, 05:51 PM except that theyre invulnerable for 1 second as they fall to last stand...and if theyre facing you w/ a deagle they can pop you.
and you waste bullets on them while they cant be killed
Pilky 03-06-2008, 07:57 PM except that theyre invulnerable for 1 second as they fall to last stand
really... i did not know this.
Bodom 03-06-2008, 09:42 PM at least in the 360 version. as theyre falling down they dont take damage. its fucking horseshit and drives me insane
anyways ive always wondered about the helicopter/airstrike thing

Actually, my friends always ask me how the hell I get so many kills in last stand, which I do. I've actually killed a lot of people in search and destroy when I was in last stand and they didn't just wait the kill out. I think some people are just good at it, while others aren't. I always use last stand, excluding headquarters and my smg classes, so that may be why i'm good at it.
Gorlax 03-07-2008, 04:33 AM thanks for the claymore + car tip, I had fun with it last night, I managed to kill 4 guys in one shot. pretty fun.
Got anymore?

Maybe it's better on the consoles. I specifically remember the last time I was last standed and it was weeks ago, it happens that infrequently.
You just shoot through as they fall and they rarely even get a shot off, nm kill you.
SuperNova 03-09-2008, 09:42 PM mmm yeah last stand sucks on pc.. everyone pretty much goes overkill making sure you dont get up... people tend to be more used to tricks like that on pc imo considering the pc is whre most fps games are at...

there is a 2-3 second lag time where they seem to be able to shoot you but you can't shoot them. It doesn't happen a lot to me, but it happens more then I would like.
Also, for the poster above me.. what does going "overkill" prevent you from getting last standed? Isn't overkill a tier 2 perk, and last stand a tier 3? Even if you go overkill it still drops a pistol when you get put into last stand doesnt it?
Bodom 03-10-2008, 02:04 AM yea it does
Pilky 03-10-2008, 04:14 AM he means overkill as in shooting more rounds then necessary
He meant overkilling you, as in keep shooting you as you fall, not the perk.
There's no delay in pc for that, but that sounds like a better perk you guys have. Be nice if last stand was the noob skill, but it required them to shoot at people, instead of martyr. A sec or two of invulnerability sounds decent to me.

I don't think the perk actually works that way. I think its just latency difference between people, because sometimes like Bodom said, it will only be 1 second before I can kill them.
Last stand at least for me on 360 is worse then martyrdom. I know 99% of the time I play HQ that they are using Marty, so I don't run over dead bodies.. but I can't count how many times Ive died to the Last stand delay, where ill be sitting there plucking a dood with M16 bursts to the head only to have him 1 shot me w/ his pistol.
Not to mention that on 360 you have all the stat keeping and people love to take your fucking kills while they are in last stand, because you don't get the kill for dropping them into LS, so people will take free headshots at people who are in LS while the other people either run off or are stuck in the "Delay" bug.
I think they should just make martyd not fire if you don't have at least one frag left, and with last stand, I would be less pissed about the skill really if people would still get the kill, and the person who finishes them gets an assist... in reality I could care less about either.. but I feel angsty tonight.
My biggest beef with last stand is when you're in a 1 vs multiple situation last stand gets you almost every time... you don't have time to keep shooting the guy after he drops if you want to survive that kind of encounter... it's burst on guy 1, burst on guy 2, burst on guy 3... then you die to guy 1 who is in last stand.
It'd be better if they randomized the direction you were facing when you went into last stand.. right now if someone facing you shoots you (and is reasonably close) into last stand all you have to do is spam the fire button to kill them.
