I finally got the 5 bloodthirsty medals on the knife to get gold. fml. so many bullshit deaths. anyway, I did not receive any titles to brag about it. is it just me who cant find it or were none made?
also, does anyone know where to pick those 3 titles in your playercard?

If I remember right, I picked my showcase titles by going to the barracks, selecting combat record, then career and then inputing 3 titles.

Not sure if it does. I've also one (probably dire) question, seeing as I'm trying to get Diamond on my specials... do you need Gold for the basic knife too? 5 Bloodthirsties sounds like torture, man. D:

There are no Calling Cards for only getting the combat knife gold

D: Its a real freaking pain to get. the knife in this game is so bullshit. run ghost, and 6 perks, walk around and camp around where you are expecting enemies to come from. flank wherever possible and im pretty sure you do have to get the combat knife gold to get the specials gold

Yes specials are Shield, X-Bow, Ballistic Knife, and Combat Knife.
There are no calling cards for the Combat Knife. For Bloodthirsties, Concussion Grenades are you friend. I suggest Plaza FFA and camp on one of the roofs with a stun primed.

I actually found the "pick up a killed enemy's gun and kill him with it" one harder to do. Anyway, I don't quite understand why people would say the Combat Knife sucks. It clearly has higher lunge range than the BO1 default knife, and it's practically an instant hit just like BO1 (as opposed to the IW titles where knifing always seems to have a very brief delay before it hits - in my experience, anyway).

Just Gold'd up my knife. Wasn't too bad, but I'm still fucking dreading the Crossbows' Bloodthirsty challenge like a motherfucker.

I finally got the 5 bloodthirsty medals on the knife to get gold. fml. so many bulldoo-doo deaths. If you think that's hard, try getting one with the crossbow. Edit: To clarify, that means out of your 2x3 shots you start with 5 have to hit and kill. Scavenger most likely won't help since x-bow kills won't drop packages cause explosive and you're not allowed to use another weapon, if you're lucky someone else in your team will make a package drop. Let's say you pack 2 conc nades, that's 2 free kills (if you don't run into a tac-mask user). You will then take all those sneaky routes in the hope to catch an unaware sniper or camper, but it's more than likely that you'll meet someone head-on. He will shoot, you will shoot, and even if you do hit, you'll probably be dead by the time he is.

Gawd........
some guy was running around balistic knifing people on Rundown...... couldn't effing kill him to save my life.
He killed me 3 times when I was at the top of the mechanics shop and he'd be runing at me from the statue.... He'd run up, climb up, go through the window, and stab me... even after I put 3/ish bullets in him with the LSAT.
Then I switched to Mr. Golden QBB..... and his fortunes changed drastically. Bugger made it 5 steps past the statue and was watching me kill him... at least 5 times. Got a lot of "Fucking camper!!" trash in the lobby afterwards, when he dropped out
God I love the QBB

Those Backfires are a real pain though.

Got a lot of "Foxtrotting camper!!" trash in the lobby afterwards, when he dropped out. Me: "dude you know that im up in the bus" Me: "switch to a sniper or flush me out with an lmg" Knife/smg: "BUT I LOVE RUNNING INTO THE OPEN LIKE A DUMB PIECE OF SHIT I AM" Interestingly most shotgun users are well behaved and have no problem switching running routes or their class. Whereas most smg users can't help but b*tch about how you're not playing properly like them, speeding around and relying on twitch reflexes (or hipfire lol).

Hey, it's their KD... much like everyone gets different enjoyment out of a video game, some people must enjoy just getting killed a lot. Last night, in what was my finest moment in TDM (up until now), I went 30-2, just sitting in the 2 story house in the bottom corner by the planks on Yemen... just killing people who ran in every 15 seconds. Plenty of time to kill twice/3 times.... reload, scavenge, go back to my little corner, and do it again. The 2 deaths I couldn't really do anything about (twice: 2 came in the front, 1 came in the side, and by the time I killed all 3, a 4th came in from the side aqnd knifed me) You'd think they'd learn after 3/4 deaths not to do that. Side note: Disturbingly, when I went to go look at it on Elite... it didn't show it... which makes me very upset

play S&D. bloodthirsty carries over from round to round... 5 round game, one kill per round. just dont die. it certainly wont be easy, but might be easier than the TDM style modes.

Disagree, in SnD you spawn across the map and have to move all the way across to get even a single kill, it just adds more possibility of you getting shot from long distances. Not to mention it is less likely for your team to have a UAV up while makes knifing people in the back much easier. My personal recommendation would be kill confirmed.

Not to mention it is less likely for your team to have a UAV up while makes knifing people in the back much easier. My personal recommendation would be kill confirmed. do you ever play S&D? "have to move ALL THE WAY ACROSS TO GET EVEN A SINGLE KILL"?? you certainly DO NOT have to GO TO THE OTHER TEAMS SPAWN TO GET A CQC KILL... it just so happens, you can get CQC kills just about anywhere the enemy happens to be at that time, which ill be goddamned, isnt usually in the spawn! people who have tried to get these knife kill bloodthirstys complain about the tons of deaths they accumulate. playing S&D will necessarily limit those times when you just lose your mind and go on a death spree in games like TDM, etc. we all know what that feeling is like. S&D keeps you from 'going on tilt.' which is exactly the kind of thing that happens to most people while trying to complete these crazy challenges. tell you what, i need just a couple more bloodthirstys on my five seven to get gold. ill hop from FFA to S&D and see how difficult it is to get them that way. it wont be exactly the same, but for comparisons sake, ill be able to really zero in on how tough it is for me to isolate myself on one on one encounters, then run and hide to survive the rest of the round. rinse and repeat.
