    They are mainly scammers trying to rid you of either
    A: your email and password ,hence your account
    B: 1600 ms points
    c: 200 or so headshots

    all with the result of nothing

    I find it easier to level up once you know how to work perks and everything.

    When I start I set Assult to Slight Of Hand, Stopping Power and Steady Aim.

    When I hit Sub I normally have Hardline unlocked so for Sub it's Slight Of Hand, Hardline and Scrambler.

    Light Machine Gun Slight Of Hand, Stopping Power and Steady Aim.

    Sniper Slight Of Hand, Stopping Power and Commando.

    Shotgun- Rion Shield- Slight Of Hand, Stopping Power and Steady Aim.

    As I unlock it becomes.

    Assult- One Man Army, Hardline and SitRep.

    Sub- Scavenger, Cold BLooded and Ninja

    Light- Bling, Stopping Power and Steady Aim

    Snipe- Bling, Stopping Power, Commando

    Shotgun remainds the same.

    I also have a Thumper Class :D which is Scavenger, Danger Close and Commando

    Then an Objective class which is MArathon, Lightweight and Ninja.

    Normally with these settings when I go up I can normally be up to lever 30 in an evening.

    would yuo mind telling me when you use those different classes? different game types or maps or...?

    Not a chance. Presuming an evening is about 4 hours playing, then I don't think so.

    But your also forgetting about Prestige challenges which help out a big deal. I went up about 3 levels in one game because I had a weapon that I just needed to get one kill with to hit a challege and get 10000 points for.
    You also foget that the earlier levels it's dirt easy to level up since you only need about 1000 exp points in the earlier ones.

    I'd rather not let people see my states as it would be shame full.

    No worries on the f/r , challenges dont start till level 5 i think , i'm just interested to know what gamemodes you play etc etc .


    Rank 1 - Private 1 - 0 XP Required
    Rank 2 - Private 2 - 500 XP
    Rank 3 - Private 3 - 1700 XP
    Rank 4 - Private First Class 1 - 3600 XP
    Rank 5 - Private First Class 2 - 6200 XP
    Rank 6 - Private First Class 3 - 9500 XP
    Rank 7 - Specialist 1 - 13,500 XP
    Rank 8 - Specialist 2 - 18,200 XP
    Rank 9 - Specialist 3 - 23,600 XP
    Rank 10 - Corporal 1 - 29,700 XP
    Rank 11 - Corporal 2 - 36,500 XP
    Rank 12 - Corporal 3 - 44,300 XP
    Rank 13 - Sergeant 1 - 53,100 XP
    Rank 14 - Sergeant 2 - 62,900 XP
    Rank 15 - Sergeant 3 - 73,700 XP
    Rank 16 - Staff Sergeant 1 - 85,500 XP
    Rank 17 - Staff Sergeant 2 - 98,300 XP
    Rank 18 - Staff Sergeant 3 - 112,100 XP
    Rank 19 - Sergeant First Class 1 - 126,900 XP
    Rank 20 - Sergeant First Class 2 - 142,700 XP
    Rank 21 - Sergeant First Class 3 - 159,500 XP
    Rank 22 - Master Sergeant 1 - 177,300 XP
    Rank 23 - Master Sergeant 2 - 196,100 XP
    Rank 24 - Master Sergeant 3 - 215,900 XP
    Rank 25 - First Sergeant 1 - 236,700 XP
    Rank 26 - First Sergeant 2 - 258,500 XP
    Rank 27 - First Sergeant 3 - 281,300 XP
    Rank 28 - Sergeant Major 1 - 305,100 XP
    Rank 29 - Sergeant Major 2 - 329,900 XP
    Rank 30 - Sergeant Major 3 - 355,700 XP

    If you can get 355,700 xp in an evenings play then fair play to you , to be honest the fact that you say your stats are shameful suggests that your story is untrue.I'm half average at this game ,i'm guessing it will roughly take me 10 + hours to get to level 30 , like i said just interested to know what modes you play.

    C'mon Dublindude, let's be friends and share stats.

    Just hit 2nd Prestige earlier, loving the magnum and tac knife - really p1ssing people off running around and knifing them :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 770 ✭✭✭Dublindude69


    How about next time I prestige, should be by next Monday at the latest, I PM my gamer tag. If I don't manage to hit level 30 in 4 hours (And no, I do not boost) you can share my gamertag with everyone here, yet if I DO manage to hit level 30 you have to tell everyone here TO FEAR MY WRATH and warn all Boosters that I'm coming and I'm going to burn them and then I'm going to drown them, tell them to run, RUN!!!

    If you can get 355,700 xp in an evenings play then fair play to you.


    Lets say in that evening of 4 hours play you get to complete a full 6 games per hour.

    So 24 games to get 355,700XP. I'd say a game bonus of roughly 2000 is about average. So that leaves 307700XP left to get when you take away the 48,000 gotten in game bonus..

    Lets then say you can manage an extra 100,000 XP from challenges in those 4 hours. I'd say that 25,000 of XP from challenges per hour is hugely generous. Even with Prestige challenges etc, you'd be very lucky to have all the numbers ready to flip over and complete just after you prestige. But again, we'll run with it for the sake of the example.

    So that gives us 207,700XP left to get. In 24 games. From Kills. So 8650XP per game.

    Lets take the gamemode as just TDM with 100XP per kill. This works out at just over 86 kills per game. If you factor in an average of 10% headshot ratio that still works out around 75 kills per game (I think. Maths a bit shakier here.) But basically it's impossible.

    Am I missing something here with regard to MW2 XP, or am I right that it's impossible, or have I just wasted 5 minutes on someone trolling.

    Btw, if your "evening" is 6 hours play, that still works out at over 35 kills per game needed. That is assuming you maintain your 25,000 per hour rate of Challenge XP, and get your 2000XP game bonus each time. So it is possible, but again highly unlikely in that time. I'd say the range of 10 hours is attainable with average gameplay, with down to maybe 8 hours possible if you are on a roll and get lucky with prestige challenges finishing.

    I think it took me 26 hours to get to level 40 so I'm getting shown up here bigtime.

    One thing I find really odd is guns I hated first time around I seem to like this time (UMP45, P90 and the first assault rifle cant think of its name)

    I prestiged for the 6th time 2 days ago & have gotten upto rank 38 in what seems like no time - possibly 7 hours max , i mostly play demolition , s&d and domination, games which have a bigger match bonus than the rest. I also try & use as many guns as possible thus completing more challenges & more xp.

    The only time i stay on 70 is when iv got a few challenges which are close to completion for 10k xp, other than that i keep going , the sooner i complete the lot the better, id imagine il have fully prestiged by the end of May or not long after it.

    For you to have gotten to Prestige 6 already suggests to me that you are good player. So you slot in to that group that can get to level 30 in the 8 hour mark using TDM alone. It's getting to it in 4-6 hours that I think isn't possible without being superhuman in all games.
