How many levels are in survival games? I've gotten to 25-30 on the ones I have played.
Presume it just keeps on going till you die like in Zombies.
Stopped playing solo 'cos I always get a little sad when the last of my riot shield guys dies. Typically getting killed trying to save an NPC.

It's infinite as far as i know. It just keeps going until it wipes you both out, or you starve, or your missus gives out sh1te to you and tells you to come to bed 'cos it's 5 in the morning ( that's the most likely outcome, for me anyways)finding the Striker handy in this. you have to buy it and pay for the ammo obviously but with the large mags it's so good for racking up quick streaks in the early rounds that it pays for itself quickly.
I like sticking with the weapons that the AI are using in these kind of games as much as i can, and maybe buying a decent assault rifle occasionally if I'm stuck. You'll never run out of ammo if you're comfortable with using what the AI is using, and you can save your cash for the really cool stuff like air strikes etc.
I think buying a a predator missile and aiming it into the middle of the biggest bunch of hostiles you can find, and then wiping out the rest of them with their dead friends' guns is a WAY cooler way to get a killstreak than spending your money on fancy automatic shotguns!

If by complete you mean get to level 15 then yea.. just find a good strategy for each map and stick to it!
I've found survival to be great fun and if I'm honest.. prefer it to MP..
My strategy is generally (not saying its the best strategy) as follows:- 1st few rounds.. only ever use enemy pick up weapons (practically infinite ammo), and use that 1st shotgun alot.. its great!
- Kill 1st and 2nd jug with just my guns.. (buying ammo is necessary but only cost 750credits which is cheaper than air support)
- 1st and 2nd round of choppers, again use ammo.. few clips from guns you pick up will take care of them just make sure your not stuck with a shotgun (again buy ammo after only 750credit)
- For taking out Jugs later on in the game I always use c4.. If you run around the map tactically you should be able to group them together.. Get them close and lay down 5 c4 on a corner.. as soon as they walk around the corner BOOM.. you may need one or 2 more but 5 is enough if you get them bang on with it! (also try to set C4 near cars as blasts from cars etc will help damage the jugs who are susceptible to explosive damage) again C4 is quite cheap so it costs you less credits than using air support to take them out
- By using the above tactics and being sensible with the way you spend credits you can afford to almost constantly have a riot shield squad and self revive when playing.. You can afford a sentry gun also, these are brilliant and essential to holding down a specific area! you know it'll protect a certain flank for you and if you hear your man say its gone then you can start worrying bout enemies coming from that direction
- I never/rarely buy body armor as I feel you can take more than enough damage to get out of a hairy situation quickly! also a self revive is only 4000 credits and body armor 2000.. but if you end up having to buy body armor every 2/3rd round then your just spending more than necessary!
- Always have flash grenades.. brilliant for getting out of a tight spot tbh!

Can you tell us what tactics/guns are you using? Are you constantly on the move or have a good area to defend?
On resistance last night furious and myself got to level 25 staying near the guns and equipment just down from A dom steps before we got overrun with juggernauts. We were relying heavily on our sentry gun and were thinking somewhere around B dom or overlooking A dom is the best place for it.
I usually buy one sentry gun and one grenade launcher sentry.
Latter goes above the archway with staircase looking over the gun armoury side.
Regular sentry goes on the opposite side of the archway staircase looking down the long staircase leading up to C Dom(?). Very top left of map.
Claymores all round staircase either side and protecting sentries too if possible.
Jugs, well make sure they drop a Jug near the gun armoury and then lead it/them around the place. C4 takes them out quickly if not a predator and obviously flash bangs are vital against them.
Should see you to level 30 fairly comfortably.

Cheers dude, I should have said that Furious was level 1 and I was 26 so we didn't have most of the better unlocks, haven't got the grenade launcher sentry unlockable yet so we were having to make do. Can you have 2 sentrys per player or is it 1 turret sentry and 1 grenade sentry tops?
Our plan was to hold the area near the grenades and ammo. We had the sentry gun sweeping the street and furious on the raised walkway watching over the ammo box and C dom whilst the riot squad was guarding the rear of the sentry gun and I was behind the low wall watching the steps down from A dom, which I claymored up. We'd both keep a check on the street. Doing it again I'd put the grenade sentry (once we unlock it) near 1 on the map so we'd be able to scramble for ammo easier. Our riot squad was generally dire, one guy, lebouef; kept looking at walls instead of enemies. Cowardly Frenchmen.
Another idea was to hold down 2 giving the sentry guns as open a view as possible but the downside is we'd be far away from resupplying and we'd be in the open. There are so many possibilities in each map to consider.

Nah you can only have 1 sentry gun each, and so only the two sentries if your playing solo.
Riot shield teams are alright, but as you pointed out the AI are feckin idiotic at the best of times. I only ever call them in occasionally post round 20 or 3 Juggernauts are out and about.
I personally wouldn't recommend buying any weapons till round 20 at the very earliest especially on Resistance and the rest of the easy difficulty maps. The 1887, MP5, ACR and FAD you pick up from enemies will get you far to round 25(I forget when FAD guys join the fray tbh) even.
As for the map and the markings, it looks grand but the sentry nearest the long staircase leading to C flag will eventually be swiped quite quickly in later rounds as you'd expect leaving you horribly exposed.0 -
