MW3 So what did you spend your Prestige tokens on??

    If you prestiged in and COD game from Modern Warfare 1 up to Black Ops you received a prestige token to spend in the prestige shop.

    On launch day you could use these to unlock Double XP, Double weapon XP, Regular Package (callsign and emblem) or an Extra Custom Class.

    Unlock gear, Hardened package, Veteran package and Reset All Stats wont be unlocked until the first time you prestige in MW3.

    Personally I am waiting until the Elite site isn't all jacked up with the millions of people trying to get on it to register and receive Double XP for 2 hours, as opposed to using my tokens now.

    I'm going to wait to prestige and use them for unlocking gear!

    So what are you guys going to do with your Prestige Tokens???:pac:

    no idea, when callofduty.com stops being a gowl I'll log in and look at it, utterly rubbish website.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 249 ✭✭tonsiltickler


    spent one on double xp and another on title and emblem. I'm an emblem fiend so i'll be spending all prestige tokens on them


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 257 ✭✭sssssiiiiimon


    Double xp, double xp, double gun xp and extra slot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 458 ✭✭Eldoco


    whats the deadline on using these, as am only gonan get to play it today?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,411 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    Gonna wait until I prestige and then spend about an hour agonising over it before getting something I'll be dissappointed with five minutes later :)

    Double xp, double xp, gun slot. Double xp was overkill though, level 45 after 1 day...bad times


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 122 ✭✭coadyd


    do you get a point for each time you have prestige in the other games? ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 767 ✭✭✭claiva


    if you pretiged Once in Mw2 - you get One token.
    If you prestiged Ten times in Mw2 - you still only get One token.

    Same for each of the Cod games.
    So, I got 4 tokens in total coz I prestiged several times in 4 different Cod games.

    there all going benfit you accpet for emblims and titles which i think are a waste of the points....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 248 ✭✭DanTheMan91


    I have 4 tokens I bought 2 custom classes and I am waiting until I get to level 80 to spend my remaining tokens.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 963 ✭✭✭NinjaK


    I only got 2 prestige tokens even though I prestiged on 3 previous cod games:confused:


  • Site Banned Posts: 26,456 ✭✭✭✭Nuri Sahin


    Do you not get extra classes as you progress through the prestige like previous COD games? Unless you plan on not prestiging, I'd unlock classes or the Gun XP.

    No offense to anyone here but you'd have to pretty daft to go for the emblem unlock. Such a waste.

    Still haven't used mine YET, but that's because I want to use it at the correct time, when that is I'm not even sure but yeah... plus actually put more than an hour into the game a session (still kinda lacking motivation to play even though I do like the game!). I'll probably get Double XP twice (haven't prestiged in MW2 on my main/current account but have done so on 2 other accounts >_<)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,356 ✭✭✭NeVeR


    I spent them all on Custom Classes :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,796 ✭✭✭CptMackey


    I'll spend em on double xp and classes slots. The rest is a waste of time tbh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,641 ✭✭✭zero19


    I still have mine dunno what to use them on!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,748 ✭✭✭rolexeagle1


    I dont wanna waste one on Double XP wish Elite would hurry up and start working!!!

    No you dont get an extra class when you prestige instead you get a token and you can unlock a class then or spend it on what ever else you want. Well I kept my token until I prestiged so i could buy some of the perks like dead silence because it takes so long to unlock and not a whole lot of people are using it at the moment. I dont see the point in wasting the tokens on gun xp its not like it takes very long to rank up your weapons.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,546 ✭✭✭✭everlast75


    Spending a token on the emblems etc doesn't strike me as being silly... if you can't obtain them by any other means, then why not?

    Extra experience points can be achieved by playing more...

    Is the prestige coins only for people that signed upto Elite?

    No you will get one each time you prestige, or if you have prestige in ANY call of duty game since COD4.

    1 prestige point per title.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 352 ✭✭Egyptian


    4 X Double XP. Then I prestiged and Unlocked the AK-47. Looking forward to having it in Gold :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9 matthew12

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,219 ✭✭✭Lab_Mouse


    extra class.only got 1 though although i have prestiged mw,mw2 and blops and also WaW.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 xxtallaghtxx


    Had 3 and bought the extra classes. Handy out for switching between Core and Hardcore.

    Did u just prestige and then turn off the game? If you did go back onto the games and play a few matches so that the system will recognize that you prestiged.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,219 ✭✭✭Lab_Mouse


    na had prestiged ages ago on the games.Not all that bothered but the classes would come in handy:D

    Mostly extra classes but going to use one to unlock the stinger, really miss it when you prestige


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,411 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    I've decided I'm going to use my three tokens to keep guns/weapons

    - AK47
    - Stinger
    - UMP

    Might open up extra class slots with extra prestiges.

    I used up my 2 tokens with stinger and AK47 this time round i seem to be coasting it at 35 in first prestige


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,721 ✭✭✭Kells...


    Prestiged yesterday after saying I wouldn't,used my token to unlock the FAD which is the best AR in the game IMO,I miss my gold MP5/UMP

    Isn't the UMP unlocked straight away or almost straight away?

    I used my 2 from MW2 and BO for extra classes. And then I used my 1 from prestiging on another class. 8 classes now and doubt I'll prestige again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 906 ✭✭✭Randall Floyd


    Unlocked the ACR after first prestige, probably unlock the FAD next and after that i'll probably go for custom classes.

    Haven't prestiged yet but I'm assuming when you keep a gun you keep all the proficencies/attachments as well. You don't have that on the default class. Plus I'm a snob and never use the default classes I like my own stuff :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 470 ✭✭JoePie


    I went and pretiged in MW2 the other night, but my token never showed up in MW3. Don't know whether it takes time to kick in across the games or whether the whole lot of it is just bandy. I hope it shows up. Must check when I get home this evening.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,721 ✭✭✭Kells...


    Has anyone got there MW2 one?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 93 ✭✭knick_knack

    yup I got my one, which I promptly spent on pretty call signs :D

    You don't keep them


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,721 ✭✭✭Kells...


    Is it not like 1 title and 1 emblem?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,752 ✭✭✭Bohrio


    Is it not like 1 title and 1 emblem?

    i USED THEMN TO GET AN EXTRA CLASS, DEAD SILENCE AND ASSASIN... CALL ME WHATEVER BUT i CAN'T STAND HEARTBEAT SENSORS....

    You don't keep them
    And you start from gun level 1

    Jebus - Ive worked that hard trying to unlock "range" on the SPAS for nothing.

    They really, really have made prestiging unattractive!

    Yeah was kind of hoping I wouldn't have to grind all the way through everything again. I guess I'll just keep the AK and stinger and get another class slot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,122 ✭✭✭sierra117x


    when you unlock an item early for the first time it starts at level one but since its already unlocked does that mean by the third prestige since its never really locked do you keep the same weapon level or even though its already unlocked does it reset to 1 each prestige or does the experience levels carry over? fair enough loosing it the first time but bit of a pain if it happens each time............not sure if i explained that properly still half asleep


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,546 ✭✭✭✭everlast75


    3 prestige tokens and don't know what the hell to spend them on...


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,239 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Prestiged last night, spent it on unlocking my Type 95. Daddy loves you baby. Up to L17 in no time and will swith to Specialist perks the second I reach L.20


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,411 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    Prestiging tonight and still humming and hawing. Will have three tokens
    AK47 - i just want it but keeping it is of no real benefit
    Extra Class Slots - one of the five I hardly use already but always want more
    Stinger - It's on all my classes but you unlock it early anyway.
    Bouncing Betties - these are starting to get me a fair amount of kills but it feels like a waste

    I'm pretty sure I'll go with the AK/extra class slot and another and then just figure out what it is I miss the most for future prestiges
