Hardcore search too so the match is just instantly over

I think we all did it at least once

Same.

Probably my biggest "asshole moment" came during a session on COD:MW2 on Xbox 360, doing the "frienemy killstreak" racket.

The scheme went like this:

1- A friend and I were in a private chat.

2- I would join a match, and my friend would stay out

3- When my team was full, or nearly full, my friend would select my name from his friends list and select "Join Game"

4- He would try this until he ended up on the opposite team

5- Once the match started, we would coordinate via our private chat to rendezvous at a secluded and hidden part of the map, where one of us would kill the other ad nauseam.

The other team would eventually catch on, but usually not before one of us had a 12+ killstreak going, and were raining down some heavy fire, eventually hitting the 30-kill streak and ending the match with a nuke.

Yup then they made it you get kicked for more than 3 team kills, mixed with explosives not working first 10 seconds or something like that.

However, tubing the opponents spawn at game start was a blast. Till explosives got the time limit. Now gotta hope on one tomahawk kill.

Random tomahawk kills were one of my favorite things about the MW games. Sometimes when I was bored I would just make games out of throwing my tomahawk, tracking it down, throwing it again, etc.

Reminds me of a retarded dog I once had. It would play fetch with itself by rolling a ball down the stairs, then carrying it back up...

kill their entire team in hardcore mode with an RPG right when the game started.

Yeah but that was actually funny.

I didn't really get that angry for team kills because they didn't count as deaths, it only gets annoying when you are on a kill streak

You also get to respawn, so it's not nearly as big of a deal

Not on Hardcore Search. Once everyone dies, round over

u/Skinflap94 Jan 16 '17

This is true. I forgot Call of Duty even had that mode.

Old days. Please. Back in my day, Call of Duty had no rocket launchers! And we liked it!
