Jesus, trying to get the Identity Thief challenge is annoying. Not only are you hoping to die a bunch of times in a row, but then you need to hope the last guy that killed you didn't have some retarded setup. Then you have to hope that you find and kill him before you die and have to start the whole process over again. Arrgghhh!
I bet that one guy who died to the TAR shotgun raged a bit when he saw that killcam.
I bet it wasn't nearly as much as the guy he got with the throwing knife mortar shot at the very beginning. lol
EDIT: Oh, wait, nevermind. This seems like it was setup entirely in private matches just to make a cool video (which should have been painfully obvious since he's killing the same guy over and over again). It is pretty cool, but that takes away to cool points for the quality of the kills.
It was a very good use of them too. I liked that quite a bit Willeth. Good find.
[ed] I used the masterkey during my first prestige (normal mode, before my first prestige?) and I loved it. That's before I was using the SPAS though. So the masterkey's range really throws me off now. It's about the same (read: seems about the same) range as the M10 but with less power. You can certainly 1-shot people with Stopping Power on though if you get close enough.

You know one thing I don't understand about pubs.
Why is it when they have the entire opposing team firing at them through a narrow hall, they keep trying to punch through instead of just sneaking up behind them?

Finally finished Spec Ops today; Star 69'd. My friends and I powered through most of them back when the game first came out, then I stopped and everyone else finished them up completely. When I came back, the only mission I hadn't 3-star'd was Wet Work, so I worked on that most of the morning and finally got it down to a science. Feels good to have those achievements behind me, finally.
Wait, so I got my 100th last stand kill, but the prestige challenge for the same thing is only at 97? Also, would it have killed them to let equipment kills count?

It might be a challenge that's not opened up right away on a prestige, so the kills you got prior to that challenge becoming availble didn't count, or it's that 3 were equipment kills, or it could be that the game doesn't like you all that much and is all "I'll show that fucker."

Yeah, that happened with my TAR. I got the 500 TAR kills prestige achievement 2 kills before I got the regular 500 TAR kills achievement. Or... Challenge, rather.

On my 3rd prestige while at Lvl 1 I got a game-winning kill with a riot shield, but since that challenge wasn't unlocked yet I didn't get it or the emblem/title. I was not a happy camper. I was just fucking around though, so I probably shouldn't be very upset. :P
Yeah, I'm leaning toward the game just not liking me much. At least it's only 3 kills.
EDIT: Yeah, I did the 5 kills with a predator really early on after just getting the game and was a bit annoyed that they'd locked out callsigns like that.

The range of the master key is actually much longer than the Spas but it's damage is not constant throughout. It drops off gradually as opposed to abruptly.

The shield thing is a bitch, though.
i got the shield one and the throwing knife one on back-to-back rust games. i have no idea how we got rust twice in a row, cuz no map was vetoed, but thats the only time i rock my riot shield build, so i was cool with it.
What does the icon look like for the kill call out when you are killed by the masterkey? I don't think i've ever actually seen it used.
I use it fairly often. As has been stated, it's just the masterkey itself. Also, it's pretty damn funny to me that for once MP is correct over SP for weapons, as the masterkey holds seven shells in the campaign.

I've used the masterkey for one round of demolition. On the f2ooo. I ripped shit with it. Took it off. Never touched it again because I need my Grenade Laucher.
I like the Master Key too. There's something delicious about imagining your target's reaction: "Alright, I've finally got this FAL guy cornered at close range, so my dual rangers should be eno- SON OF A BITCH!"
Also why I like the lone Ranger: when you beat the akimbo variety you're by far the classier guy. Also cool when you kill two guys with the two barrels.
Since this game has no +1 functionality, we can still say it's wrong.
Since there is no +1 4 shells is effectively 3+1 so it's pretty much right. And considering when you start you don't have to chamber the initial shell.
Or does it?
Either way, reloading a full choke messes it up.
But who cares?
e: Also Seventh, for you shield you should put Scavenger on. It makes Throwing Knives even better. You can just stand on a pile of bodies and chuck knife after knife.

Good games, even if M16s and Commando were being a pain in the ass.
At least I got the Predator GWK and the 'kill someone then kill them with their own weapon' challenge.

thanks for the tip, and i guess it makes sense since i dont really need marathon on rust.
i use the masterkey on my AA build with my SCAR/stinger since i dont have a secondary, and sometimes it works better than others. without SP, its rarely a one hit kill (in my experience).
speaking of, i shot some kid on the face with my SPAS when i was literally right in front of him, and then he knifed me. i mean, i didnt have steady aim on, but come on.

@gamefacts - Totally and utterly true gaming facts on the regular!
It doesn't have the range of the ACR but kills way faster.
I bet that one guy who died to the TAR shotgun raged a bit when he saw that killcam.
Steam: Drokmir
I bet it wasn't nearly as much as the guy he got with the throwing knife mortar shot at the very beginning. lol

HC is probably the only time I'd use it because in HC, if I'm not mistaken, it has a longer one-shot kill distance than the SPAS does.
It was a very good use of them too. I liked that quite a bit Willeth. Good find.

at the time yes. You're totally right.

It looks like the assult rifle from Halo.

riot shield
SPAS (almost never used)
throwing knife
stun grenade
marathon
lightweight
commando
not as much fun when lag is bad though...i went 1-8-13 a couple days ago...
