Assault Rifle (Anyone) + Red Dot Sight + Stopping Power + Martyrdom = Best Combo Ever! With this combo, my average kills per game have tripled, plus there’s no sweeter thing then dieing and respawning with a +5, +10, +15. Martyrdom is by far my favorite perk!

[EWRFan]

Got this for the PS3 today(trade in Skate for it) and I am just fooling around with the single player, once I finish that I am off to play some online. So...how many guys here have it for the PS3 and want to shoot each other a bit?

[VerbalPuke]

Man, I don't even like FPS at all, but this game just looks so incredibly gnarly. This is probably going to be one of the best months for gaming I've ever seen, and will probably wreak havoc on parents and gamers pocket books across the world.

I finally got onto Live and HOLY CLAYMORE BATMAN! I was on fucking fire, In 3 and a half hours i went from level 1 to level 14, Having no Lag due to most of my opponents being Aussies helped, But my Skorpian + Stopping Power + Deep Impact = My First Free for All win and dead bodies littering the map, But then the Yanks came on and staying up for an extra few hours set in and i'll call it a day now, But i'll be back and all your ranks, Belong to me.

I'm confused about the bolded part. Haven't reached the level to unlock martyrdom yet, but care to explain?

Also, how do you guys go about completing the challenges? I usually stick to the same weapon for a few matches, then move on to the next one once I've completed a few challenges with my current one.

[FLiam]

What level do you have to be to get the matrydom? I really want it.

I'm only level 14.

[CQI13]

I believe it's lvl 17 for martyrdom.

[Slogger]

I'm doing Prestige mode and boy it brought my cocky ass down to earth but still, It shows i have balls and the now rank icon looks sweet and i think i'm further in prestige mode than the rest of you are in normal mode.

Oh and in SP i ran the Cargo Ship solo in 19.45 and got the Achievement!

[EWRFan]

Let me know when you get the game CKN. Granted, my clan only speaks spanish mostly, but some of the guys speak english and it would be fun to have someone else to play with!

[CQI13]

In order to join a clan, do you also have to be at Level 14?

[Slogger]

You have to join a clan online (look in the CoD fourms at their website) and then enter there clan tag.
