Subject: How do you get more assassinations?

Ive noticed that compared to a lot of other players at my level, I have a relatively low amount of assassination medals. Whenever I see one of those assassination montages I'm like "Cool, I wish I could do that." Even when I try to go for them, I don't seem to get any more than usual. How should I change my playing style to get more assassinations?

Ooh, I love those people, the ones who decide to throw everything and the kitchen sink at you, as if an M16 does anything to a T-90. Oh, MLG player with noobtube instead? Congrats! You blew off one of my ablative plates!

You see that knife you got there, yeah you stab people with it.

Pretty easy to run around in games like Snipers and Multi Team and get assassinations. Besides, why does it matter? The commendation is not worth working on.

New Zealand is pretty much the best place in the world.

Wait for a red dot to approach behind you, then jump backwards. Works everytime.

So basically... Waypoint is pro-vanilla?

Waypoint isn't pro-anything so much as they're just anti-intelligence.

Play multi-team, and learn how to ninja.

no point in worrying about it.

assassinations are only good for the commendation you'll never max, losing kills (yoink) and getting yourself killed. since you're stuck in an inescapable animation.

go for beatdowns (the original assassination) it's the same effect with no drawbacks.

Grifball. On default controls with a sword, click RT to lunge, at someone's back, then hold RB and it'll assassinate them. Or run backwards with the bomb (you can do it without, but bomb makes you faster) while looking down, and just hit them as you jump over them.

S.A.A.

SAAKILLER is pronounced: S.A.A.KILLER

Crouch to stay off radar and use sprint. Also, when an enemy comes by, take cover by a corner, wait for him to pass by, and then sprint and assassinate. Also, having a teammate to distract the enemy also helps. Camo also helps.

This is coming from one of the masters of assassinations.

I am from Mars, that is why I wear red and was issued the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/M variant helmet, was also issued the experimental version of the Camo unit, that is why i have the Recon shoulder. I excel at CQB, hence the CQC shoulder. I have trained extensively with operation of vehicles therefore the armor on my left side is more substantial and the GPS navigator. the ODST chest is because I was embedded with a unit from the 105TH for 7 SpecOP missions, I have a great respect for them

camo. nuff said.
