My Best COD4 Game Ever
I found this note on my desk that I jotted down from after a COD4 game on XBL. The note lists the highlights of what was my best single match ever. Since I’m bored at the moment and my Xbox is RRODed at the moment (and because, honestly, it was kind of epic), I’ll record it here for posterity (and to clean the note off my desk). If you’re not a COD4 player, this will make no sense to you. But since it was the first FPS I played online, I struggled for a long time at first to get the hang of it. I guess a match like this indicates I’ve reached some level of expertise (though my overall K:D ratio is still sorely less than one).
During this match, I scored:
- 25-1-2 final K:A:D ratio
- Finished the RPD Expert challenges (getting the ACOG attachment for the RPD MG)
- A killstreak of 15
- Airstrike Veteran II (15 airstrike kills)
- Afterburner challenge (call in an airstrike twice in a single match)
- Air Superiority challenge (call in a helicopter twice in a single match)
- Star Player challenge (finish a game with a 5:1 K:D ratio or better)
Strangely, I don’t recall the map I was on — it may have been Countdown (the missile silos) but I’m probably remembering a different game. I do recall getting challenge after challenge. They were coming so fast at some points that the accompanying music was becoming distracting. And my completing the RPD expert challenge indicates I was using the RPD for most of the map (why change up classes if what you’re using is working?). Ironically, I don’t really like the RPD much and I was probably just using it initially to round out the challenges because I’d already finished the M249 and M60.
Anyway, I’m a big nerd, but there it is.
