    That's the only way to get them in trouble you were saying?

    I'm going boosting later for a nuke, who's up for it? wink.gif

    Got a nice stint online yesterday evening for a change and clocked about 4-5 hours of play. Jumped from level 28 I think up to 32, so not bad. But the private matches probably slowed that down a bit.

    Will be online again this evening, although maybe not for as long. I really need to mow the lawn and wash my car too....

    I was thinking after I posted that, that maybe quoting your post wasn't the best idea.

    What sort of weapons /perks do you use for booster hunting?

    Ones that make big explosions. :)

    A lot of people run with a SMG and Marathon combo to get around the maps quickly. But not really vital. Another option is to use a NoobTube on an Assault rifle.

    A Rocket launcher is nice if you want to blow them up from afar, so stick in Danger Close too. Semtex or C4 can work also.

    ninja pro is essential, cold blooded in case the have a uav which they prob wont but still, and something with large mags as your primary and something that makes things go kaboom as a secondary, maybe a thumper or rpg

    I'd say SitRep is possibly a better option than Ninja, so you can see exactly where they are from a distance, so can just rocket them without engaging in a firefight?

    Sitrep is better when there is a lot of chatter in the room and you cant hear where the tac is being put down.

    I use a Tar-21 with a grenade launcher.
    Thumper

    Semtex/2 Stuns.

    Scavenger
    Danger Close
    Ninja

    Is that ok for hunting boosters?

    I've been using the scar with silencer and heartbeat sensor, marathon, cold blooded, ninja pro. The scar just chews through ammo, but does a lot a damage. Any other reccomendations for a primary

    For booster hunting, HB isn't worth your time as most boosters use ninja.
    Silencer is grand, but if you don't kill them, they could continue on boosting, where as an unsilenced gun will bring some attention to the area.

    swap marathon out for scavanger and stick with the scar . add extended mags if you have it

    Marathon - Sometimes people will kill you on your way to a suspected booster spot, so it's always good to have that infinite sprint to get to where you need to go if you start off on the other side of the map.

    Cold Blooded - If you're going up against boosters, chances are they have some kind of air-support in the air that's racking up their kill streak. Don't be one of them. Stay invisible with this.

    SitRep - Boosters aren't really preoccupied with the sounds that are coming from around them since killing their partner and watching them respawn/place another tactical insertion down makes a fair enough of noise as it is. This means Ninja Pro isn't really that necessary. With SitRep on you can see their insertions from miles away through walls which is invaluable.

    Primary weapon should be an AR with a grenade launcher attached and secondary doesn't really matter, but I personally use the RPGs as mine.
