    Why is everyone running around with golden guns this week when they have not even prestiged?

    I keep picking gold guns off the ground everywhere I look theres another one?

    How are they doing this?

    Now that you mention it, I've noticed loads of golden camo guns since the new map pack came out. I assumed it was because all the 15th prestigers were out in force to play the new maps, so lots golden camo guns have been lying around. I've picked up a few myself.

    Yeah I thought that as well but last night I killed a couple of guys coming out of their spawn and noticed neither of them had prestiged but both were carrying le golden femas :confused:

    Maybe they know something we dont :p

    They may have just picked it up and used the gun. Killcam shows golden famas but not right prestige to go with it.

    Players flock to dropped gold guns like magpies.

    I feel I've been killed more by my M8's gold Akimbo H10s in S&D than any other gun in the game.

    All you can do is report and block them and hope they're banned I'm afraid.

    Well as per the title if they're not 13th/14th prestige (I forget) and have gold guns unlocked it's a glitch and so you can report them.

    Surely you suspect they've hacked to get their gold camo no? :confused:


    ....I'd imagine that's as good a reason as any to report someone.

    Every second guy has it now... They dont have any advantage so I doubt its worth reporting.

    No. There were glitches a while back where all you had to do was go into training and switch lobbies or something like that. Its not the players fault if the developers made the mistake. No hacking involved i'd say
    There was a gold camo glitch that got patched. Its just a camo. They hardly have an advantage over you.

    I agree... Was just wondering how they obtained it, thats all.

    Now taht you mentioned it - I noticed it last night where guys around 3/4 prestige had gold camos right after spawning. I thought it was odd at the time. Still beasted them though.

    This is what got me thinking too because I kept on owning these guys and then I noticed after they spawned they had the gold camo.. Im only an average player and average 35-10 or something like that in most games. Any lvl 15 prestige guys dont run around blind and get pwned by lvl 50 non prestige.

    It is meant to be. It is supposed to be a 1up to prestige leveling up.
