Unlock Tokens (I'm heading towards second prestige)
1) Care/Drone Package and Intervention Sniper (TF-141)
2) Dead Silence (probably for search) and Ump (mactav)
I may go one more time to get the Spas-12....I wouldn't have prestiged at all if they weren't forcing us to get classic weapons now... and you have to prestige twice to get an extre class....fuck you IW.
Tips and Tricks
[1] Dome shield: seems to be good in domination for securing a position. Makes you impervious for a few seconds. Running two will really help secure positions in PUB lobbies.
[1a] Dome shield can also be used to peek around corners (useful in HC especially) to find head glitchers. Sometimes I throw it down, get in it and shoot a clip through it at an enemy and kill them or slide out shooting. I haven't tried it with fmj yet but if that shoots through it easier, it will make this strategy more powerful. Can be combined with the rig that replenishes tacticals.
[2] FTL Rig for rush classes (shotguns which seem to have terrible range)...use FTL jump and powerslide.... I have three elite shotguns and two of them seem terrible. The exploding enemy is a nice novelty on the reaver but not much more than that. I have the last shotgun elite slug version as well but haven't played it yet. The reaver has terrible range. Banshee has less terrible range but still seems to just suck. I can't get that smart choke to work for me (ps4). I die before I can aim in and acquire the target with it. I need to pretty much hip fire shotguns at people very close to not die...
[3] Not a lot of people running anti-thermal....doesn't have as much kick as the last COD. I'm running it on an NV4 in hardcore and everyone glows orange until they catch on after a few games...if you want to loiter in HC, its worth running...
What else? OP guns?
How do I minimize the cluster fuck that is getting shot from behind? Yes, ghost, suppressor and trip mine........Stand still, get run up on (sound whoring is better than AW but meh as movement speed seems to be 70mi/hr). Move around, enemy spawns behind me and kills me (movement is so fast pub spawns are completely erratic at all times it seems). Run around a corner and go right, get shot in back from the left.
I've tried the back shield rig which helped minimally given the short TTK in this game. I've resorted to playing hardcore tdm, tactical loitering hard with a trip mine and using the nv4 with ghost and suppressor. Core tdm is sometimes unplayable to me. Get kill then die, get kill then die, wash, rinse and repeat...
