What that list doesnt tell you is that you start with 3 basic killstreaks unlocked:

3 kills UAV
4 care package (little chopper drops it and its random what you get. You have to stay alive to get it but can also steal others)
5 Predator camera guided missile - pretty pap unless you get a group together outside

You then get to unlock them 1 by 1. I believe you can unlock whichever you want first but off course is there much point in the nuke until youve played the game enough to stand a chance of 25 kills in a row lol.

Not sure what the criteria is for unlocking but Im Lvl 23 and have only been able to add 2 more - both 7 kills harrier support and gunship.

Best Ive seen is the AC130. Guy using that was cleaning up earlier.

I didnt mean how bad people were I just meant generally how easy it is for anyone to kill someone else. A burst of bullets in vague direction and your dead - no real skill to that or way to avoid it. Shouldnt be suprised as was the same in MW.

Taking a break now as have ranked up to Lvl 22 since 8am this morning. Says just under 100,000 players online for PS3 and a third of that playing TDM. Was a bit worried this morning as quite a few games just dropped out and then I got signed out of PSN for 5 mins but since then no problems at all.

Well I've just completed the missions on easy. Been playing the multiplayer as well...

Haven't slept, eaten, or done any work, and I'm actually starting to think I'm part of task force 141. Think a break is called for.

Well I got my copy last night at 12:50am from my local Game shop. I played the single player campaign first for awhile and then had one go on-line in the multiplayer (at 4am this morning ). The single player I thought was a bit too hectic at times and not sure if I like the blood splatter as it makes it even harder to survive once you've been hit as you can't see properly anymore. Overall though it's an awesome game. Well worth 50+mins standing in the cold at 12am

Sat down at around 12oclock and started playing on regular difficulty, cranked up the 5.1 surround and started my own little war, and blow me if my afternoon has not just vanished.

Damn the campaign is over

6 hours is a little short
Suppose its the same as the first one so i cant grumble, but i was having so much fun i did not want it to end

Loved the story twists, i was shouting at the TV "woagh hes back" "you *******" etc etc

Epic campaign, some of the levels look a bit sketchy IMO, but some of the other ones just look amazing, a proper treat to play

One thing i could not work out is the achievement for knifing somebody without them knowing, or something like that, anybody done that one?

Looking forward to so co-op spec ops stuff in the future

I've just retrieved the ACS module and Mactavish has been compromised and he keeps gettting killed whatever I try to do. I'm assuming it involves setting of the explosives I planted earlier but I can;t find anyway of doing that. Anyone got any hints ?

you walk around to where he is, i hid behind a barrel, for the first few mins i hid right out the back lmfao, but i assume you need to get closer to him as when i moved nearby him, he told me to go to plan B, i then had the detonator pop up in my hand and i blew them to hell

Has anybody realised that you can go back and select the museum as a mission.

It lets you walk around the place on your own, and play with all the guns, i killed all the statues with a shotgun and as soon as you leave the room they respawn.

Wonder if this little extra thing hides any easter eggs or secrets

I though I'd ease myself in on SP (PC version) before hitting MP like I did with previous CODs.
Unfortunately I'm plunged into a tedious series of fragfests where skill and tactics take second place to an orgy of weapon availability, too many enemy and distracting scenery.
It almost makes me want to go back to ARMA2 . Without the bugs it would be sublime.

Good news is that Amazon have given a small refund as the final price was lower than the pre-order cost -which is rather telling.

I recognised that too, thats the bit I'm up to now.

Only played for a little while last night, hoping to get back on it tonight. Won't go online until I've completed the one player mode.

There is a button on the information desk that says "don't push"

If you push it the statues come to life and along with a dog, try to kill you.

I think its their version of the zombie levels from WAW.

Gets boreing after a while as once you kill them all nothing happens, it just resets itself

I sent my old man on a mission last night to get MW2 for me at the Sainburys in Witney as there isn't one round here. I made him write down the title and said "Its for PS3!"

He called just now feeling very pleased that he's been all over trying to get the game for me and succeded. He has a shiney new Xbox version waiting for me

DOH!

I just got home and it asked to install 1.2. Done that Nd when I got to main menu and selected online it seemed to crash but then came back.

Now it's stuck at fetching playlists etc. Of more concern is the fact it's showing my rank as 1 when I was 27 or 28 last night

Time for some single player.
