wow itz liek so funny how u cant get past a 40 and liek no1 likes you look at ur gamez and see that u cant get pazt 40 in lw lulz!!!!!111


I got a 40 in LW ages ago and never played it again, I don't like that playlist. Ask anyone who plays with me, I don't care about getting my rank up and I rarely play MM. I usually play customs.

If I wanted to get my rank up in a 3.5 year old game that's dead then I would give it a shot. I'd probably get it too, I'd still be bad but I'd be far better than a boosted 50 like you.

Also I'm not going to follow in your footsteps and pay a booster, I'm not that pathetic.

whats your main.

Dox the Mage

It's really bad.


A 2.85 KD on a new account at level 17 seems high for a legit 30...I thought you were trolling with this thread. If that really is where your skill is at here is my advice.

First and foremost, don't listen to any one who is not at a significantly higher skill level than you (a lot people in this thread). This is very important.

Second. Play, play and play some more. Make sure it is competitive games against players at or slightly above your skill level. (ranked is easiest, obviously). Don't waste time in social, don't waste time messing around in customs, don't waste time on campaign. Ranked. Period.

Third, this game is about control. Control the power weapons, control the power ups, control the map. Learn when everything spawns and grab them.

There are a lot of specifics that are better said once you have some experience.




I use to be a greifer. I started to try on this account.

I am 16 and I play games since 5 and I am above the average gamer, but that is because I have no life and I dedicate myself to games here are some tips:
1-stay in shape you need to be healthy in order to have fast reflexes.
2-don't be to close to the screen it might hurt your eyes and slow you down.
3-play on 3 or 4 sensitivaty (spelling?) it's ok to keep your aim and good enough to turn around in case of a threat behind you (you might want to lower if your controller is a little warn out)
4-battle rifle>assault rifle
5-don't be afraid to spawn trap, use noob combos and rush for power wepons people might call you a noob but they will do the same thing
6-when in big maps try to stay away from the fight and keep people off with the Battle Rifle.
7-multi kills and sprees are only medals and mean nothing don't go guns blazing just because you are about to get a multikill and don't camp if you are about to get a spree
8-don't chase your enemies if you are wining they need to come to you if they want to win
9- and don't chase your enemies into the enemie team location
10-don't throw grenades during a BR duel you are wasting precious time that you could use putting shots in the enemie
11-just because the driver only gets assists doesn't mean that he has a great role, assists are great in team games
12-only noobs care for K/D if there is an objective you complete it no matter if you die

Hope I helped

Playing more doesnt make you better, I know countless people who have well over 15k games and still are bad. Get stomped alot by people better then you and you'll start to understand where to move and put yourself. Theater is your friend.

A long time. Learn spawns, where weapons are, what time the power weapons come up and just play play play. I played that game for 3 years, and played with the same people

This was actually my bro's account for a while. Notice the last few games look like complete transformation in kills, deaths, ect.

I don't know I skipped xbox for almost 3 years and I just am better than I was then. I got my first perfection recently and I used to have a KpD of .76 It's like .97 now. I used to watch this guy Tw1zt3dkhaos on youtube after my xbox broke. It made me play a lot better. Search for him.

Took me about a year to get good enough to get a 50.

My suggestion
-Practice your BR spread
-know the mechanics of all the maps
-Use grenades WISELY
-Teamwork - lonewolf stuff only gets you so far
-Have your own strategy that works for each map
-Practice having map control -ie. power weapons/powerups
