Mr. Joshua are you on PC, PS3 or 360?
and if you're talking about the building with the washing machine and chair on the 2nd floor then yeah its been there all along...also if you put it on Old School mode, you can jump on the chair then on the back of the chair, then on a brick ledge on the wall, from which you can jump to the rebarred part of the adjacent roof and you'll have access to some cool shit] 3/31/2008 10:34:40 AM |

I decided not to prestige. Instead, I am determined to get every single weapon and special challenge. I have less than 5 special challenges left. The one I spent time on yesterday and could not get was multiple kills with a single C4 pack. some of the other crazy ones I did, I wouldnt think this would be too complicated. But I couldnt do it Got so pissed I nearly cracked my controller.
As far as weapons, marksman for everything. Level 2 expert for all, and level 3 expert on about 5 weapons (still a lot of work) 3/31/2008 10:42:39 AM |

i havent gotten the c4 one either...but i think the easiest way is to play Ground War (with up to 18 players total), get on a small board, have the Sonic Boom perk on (since that doubles C4 blast radius) and plant a C4 near a common camping spot
as far as prestige though, i figure its such a pain in the ass to get 150 headshots with all the shotguns, all the ARs, all the SMGs, etc...i just figure i'll rack up kills and headshots but once i get past level 55, prestige it up again...i figure once i get 150 kills with a gun, i'll usually switch to a new one, unless i'm at like 21/25 headshots in which case i'll get the 25th...but if you're getting like 6:1 headshots:kills ratio, do you want to get 600 kills just for 100 headshots? cause 600 kills across 4 guns is 1000xp a piece, 4000xp, which helps you level up faster 3/31/2008 10:54:01 AM |

whoops "6:1 headshots:kills ratio" should be 6:1 kills:headshots ratio 3/31/2008 11:16:11 AM |

Yeah I liked that Ground War mode we played last night
It gets pretty crazy on vacant
Domination is pretty cool too, I just don't like the modes where you have to defend/disarm a bomb
I'd rather just kill fools 3/31/2008 11:18:08 AM |
TreeTwista10 minisoldr 148450 Posts user info edit post |
the thing about Ground War is its either large Domination games or large Team Deathmatch games...unless you're the host you can't really control it...but the extra people generally take everyone's kill count up a bit
Sabotage can be cool sometimes if you do like I do and only worry about kills and not the objective...I mean I'll defuse the bomb if I have to and I'll try to take the bomb to the enemy's base and plant it, but sometimes I just go for kills/headshots/challenges] 3/31/2008 11:33:27 AM |

so speaking of those Old School glitches (and jumping is higher in old school mode in case you didnt know), i've been trying to mess with those lately...i'll do a splitscreen / local multiplayer match but only with one player so its full screen...go into game options and turn on Old School mode and set the time limit of the board to Unlimited
i've gotten on the roof of the building in Vacant with the help of another person (squatting on the table) but still haven't mastered teh jump from the top of the refrigerator to the wall since you have to immediately squat as soon as you land...its tough
i have however been pretty successful at getting on the roof of that deadend building Mr. Joshua was talking about
1. Jump on chair 2. Jump closer to wall onto back of chair (or just jump on back of chair from get go) 3. Slide left towards the edge of the room (where you're about to fall off) and jump up to next brick ledge...adjacent rebar/wrecked concrete room should now be at similar level 4. carefully jump to adjacet wall 5. Once you get up there, jump straight up again towards rebar
i havent even tried leaving the map yet (at least not in the right way) but its the first glitch in this video and its kind of easy
anyway...
there are some crazy non-old school spots also...i was playing Crash last night and some dude was standing on top of a light poll somehow] 3/31/2008 3:23:07 PM |

tree did you get your mic fixed yet
because its no fun playing if you cant hear all my witty banter 3/31/2008 3:45:06 PM |
TreeTwista10 minisoldr 148450 Posts user info edit post |
no i didnt...and the bitch is fully charged
i'm probably going to actually return it for a wired mic...at least the wired mic i got with my 360 worked for 2+ years
maybe i just need to reset my 360 though...ive had it on for like 5 straight days cause its often a pain in the ass to get a game to initially read for the first time 3/31/2008 3:56:16 PM |

800 points for the Variety Map Pack.
They did a great job with these. Creek gets a little annoying because its all snipers and once they are in position it can be pretty damn impossible to get through. I still have no clue where I am when playing Broadcast. Played China Town once and love it. Haven't seen the 4th map yet. 4/6/2008 12:43:43 AM |

i really like the new maps 4/6/2008 10:41:12 AM |
Slave Famous Become Wrath 34079 Posts user info edit post |
Creek is a cool map, I just hate playing it so far because unless you're crawling, you're gonna get sniped. I'm trying to figure out some flanking strategies through the cave and around near the waterfall.
Chinatown is pretty cool, and for some reason I'm amazing at it. My KD ratio overall is 1.2, but on that map I consistenly go 22-3, 19-4, 24-2. I'm guessing I just figured it out faster than most people because I'm definitely not that good.
and Broadcast is fun as well. Its bigger than it seems and has a good mix of cqb and distance shooting. You could do well on that map with a shotgun or a sniper rifle or anything inbetween.
I just hope they start mixing in the new maps with the old ones soon because you get kind of tired playing the same three maps over and over. 4/6/2008 1:55:27 PM |

ive yet to play killhouse...what gametype is it under? 4/6/2008 3:05:59 PM |
BrickTop All American 4508 Posts user info edit post |
i thought i read a review somewhere that said there would be 2 new playlists... one 'variety' where it's just the new maps, and another 'variety' that would mix them in with the old maps...
found it: http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/864/864760p1.html
Quote : | "Along with the four new maps, Infinity Ward has also released two new playlists so users who purchase the new downloadable content will have a place to hide from the rest of the regular COD4 crowd. Variety Team Deathmatch and Variety Team Objective house only the four DLC maps, whereas the rest of the playlists pull from the original list of environments as well as the four new kids on the block.

if all you want to do is see the board, the easiest way is to go to Multiplayer, then instead of xbox live, go to Split Screen and pick the board there...you can just do 1 player fullscreen to explore a little bit 4/9/2008 1:10:36 PM |
