That happens to me whenever streaks stack up, if there's no stacking then they do count.

Nope, Pave Low kills don't count in a streak for your next reward, and in my opinion its a bug, seems to be the only streak that doesn't do it (obviously apart from the air drops)

EDIT-Actually, looks like you may just be talking about a killstreak in general and not about your next reward, if thats the case I'm still pretty sure I'm right but not 100% certain.

Powered through the campaign last night and:

AIRPORT LEVEL ROCKS :eek::D

I cannot remember killing civies being this much fun since the first 3D GTA came out.

You're definately right.

I played a game of domination last night on Estate where I called in a Pave Low. I counted about a 23-24 killstreak including pave low kills before I died, and ended the game 44-8, yet my killstreak stat in the leaderboards only went up to 15.

Even if it isn't a bug, it's really annoying.

Same, I was in a match last night at 34-2, around 30 of those were all from one streak of Predator/Harrier/PaveLow, and yet my highest streak is still 17 in the stats.

Verily annoying.:(
 
MW2 is about as good as it gets for me but the noob tubing is really becoming an issue. People are even using danger close + noob tube for maximum effect.

I've not seen the care package glitch yet but do keep seeing people organise themselves so one player in a party is on the other team and the others are on your team. They then all run to a pre planned spot and let the enemy player kill them all until they get 25 kills and nuke the map. Very annoying.
 
I was having some fun last night.

Firstly was shotguns and throwing knifes, got a fair few kills with the knifes too, even a really jammy one over two container crates ;) also love how the enemies stop dead when you blast a shotgun into their chest.

Then I made my stealth mode. I just went in the opposite direction to my team and was amazed how easy it was to kill 3-4 without anyone noticing. Didn't work all the time mind, but on the bigger levels it worked a treat ;)
 
I miss not having party chat all of the time. It's getting really annoying joining games and just getting abuse thrown at you for no reason at all other than they managed to beat you. You can't even say anything back as they just go on and on and on. Always end up having everyone bar my friends muted anyway. Although it is comical that it seems to be the older lads etc that seem to be the least mature.

I'm not finding the heartbeat sensors much of a problem as I use the relevant perk and now that I have ninja pro I find I have been able to sneak up on a lot of people with ease. The camping is rather annoying though. The levels have gotten a lot better than CoD4 but there is no so much going on that people just hide constantly and it really destroys the flow of the game at times. Estate I feel is the worst for it too.

At the weekend I was having a mare of a round on HQ, after the game had ended someone commented on the fact that "that wossi bloke is ****" The next round we were on opposite teams and I killed him and his mates a few times and ended up with a better KD ratio than both of them :D

There are some maps that I just hate and always play crap on and there are some where I can play amazing.

I do that with great success :)

If you go slowly and wait about 45 seconds before making a move (until everyone leaves the spawn) then you can make it right behind the whole team.

Rushing across the map can be dodgy because there's usually 1 lone guy who will spot you.

I agree with both points annoying how people go out of there way just to find 'weaknesses' in the game and then just exploit them. The increased melee distance is just ridiculous to me the guy would have to weild a final fantasy like Buster sword to hit from the range distance they acheive and these things must be made of bendable metal that hits you round corners.

Can you have Scavenger and Danger close both on, or are they on the same tier? (I dont think so but cant remember)

That surely is the noobtuber's class of choice

And yea, also had the same on one occasion, a guy got a nuke because his buddies were cannon fodder

If I have commando pro i've noticed that even if the other play is out of reach of my knife they get teleported onto the end of it:p Kinda sucks for them.
As for the overuse of the noobtube that somebody mentioned - I think it's because you have to use it with AR's to unlock everything.I will use it but only to unlock the shotgun and then I don't use it.When I do use it I notice how ridiculously easy it is to get kills with it.
 
Any tips for penetration kills using M4A1 with FMJ?

I have 2 so far and I need 40 to complete the unlock all attachments, but it's proving a bit harder than I thought.

Shoot below windows that people camp in, or just shoot through your team mates :D

Shoot until you have no more bullets left :p
Seriously though... seek out campers or when someone goes into a building... keep shooting

Its very hit and miss. I started a round with 37/40 penetration kills and sat outside the aircraft and shot up the flight deck. I killed a guy from outside and got nothing, still 37/40.

I actually looked at my gun stats, bearing in mind you unlock FMJ's at 300 kills I whack them on straight away to start on the Penetration kills. So far it's taken me to:

M4 832 kills
Famas 620
Scar 740
Tar 596

So even by my best the TAR it took me another 296 kills to get the 40 I needed. I'm starting to think it's not worth it using that approach for just 10000 xp. I'd probably just earn more using a better weapon set up.
