So... you wanna rank up fast and be ahead of all your friends?
Well read this...
Hint 1: Try Every Weapon and Attachment
At least initially, youll get big experience point bonuses for getting a certain number of kills with each weapon in the game. So instead of lingering on one weapon for too long, switch to another weapon when you hit the milestones of 25 kills, 75 kills and so on. As you progress, youll also unlock attachments; start cycling through them as soon as theyre available. While youre doing all this, pay attention to which weapons and fighting styles best suit you.
Hint 2: Always Check the Barracks
An extension of the first hint, immediately check the Barracks from the multiplayer menu while your next round is loading. Glance at the weapon and attachment youre using to see if theres other gear you could be using to get faster bonus points, then head to Create a Class to switch your loadout. The faster you level up, the more weapons and perks youll unlock, which in turn will let you collect early bonus points on the new gear faster.
Hint 3: The Right Perks at the Right Times
Starting out, youll definitely want to use Stopping Power for all of your weapons. This gives you a damage boost that should help you get more kills. Later, especially after youve unlocked Stopping Power Pro, switch to Hardline, which requires one less kill to initiate killstreak rewards (doing so gives you even more experience points, plus bonuses). As with weapons and attachments, keep tabs on your other perks, too. You can pick up easy experience points from Scavenger, which lets you resupply off dead foes, and Sleight of Hand, which improves your reload speed. Also, at level 21, youll get Bling, allowing you to equip two attachments at once. See Hint 1.
Hint 4: Cherry Pick the Easy Challenges
Look up Basic Training in the Barracks. The easy ones are Vandalism (for destroying a car), Goodbye (fall 30 feet to your death) and Base Jump (fall 15 feet and survive). Look for opportunities as you play. Forget about the remaining Basic Training bonuses; youll pick them up naturally over time, and they dont provide a ton of points anyway.
Hint 5: Forget About Operations
Compared to weapons and equipment-based challenges, the bonuses for winning a certain number of each game type are stingy. Your time is better spent focusing on specific game types that reap the best rewards, which well cover in the next point.
Hint 6: Headquarters Pro for the Noob and Beyond
Headquarters Pro, which requires opposing teams to fight for one periodically moving control point, is the most consistent gametype for picking up experience points. Even if your team loses, and you have a terrible match, youre still looking at about 2,500 points per game, not counting any bonuses you collect. Win the match and youll get 3,500 points or more. What makes Headquarters Pro better than other territory-based game types is that all the players are moving towards one central location. That means less skulking around in crouch mode and more killing, creating a perfect opportunity to work on experience bonuses for different weapons. Its also pretty fun.
Hint 7: Free-For-All For the Experienced Player
Once you find some favorite weapons, perks and attachments, try playing Free-For-All. Youll only get 50 points per kill (the same as Headquarters Pro and other objective games, but half the rate of Team Deathmatch), but the tempo is quick, so youll have more chances to score. The real kicker, however, is the bonus for winning: Take first place, and youll get roughly 7,500 points. No other game type comes close, but if youre obsessed with stats, beware: If you dont place first, the match will count as a loss.
Hint 8: Search and Destroy for the Pro
Search and Destroy can be frustrating for newbies, because once you die, you sit out until the next round begins. However, skilled players can milk this game type for 500 XP per kill and 200 XP per assist. Because of the elimination setting, its also among the fastest game types to play through, so if you can get six kills per game, youll level up faster than you would with Headquarters Pro.
