    I think COD4 ranking system is awesome. Its achievements come through "hard work" and once you really start focusing on them, all they give you, is "more points", which you dont really need. And the ranks themselves lose their meaning. You get all best weapons by the 40th rank, which is in about 10 hours of play time.

    Ive played S&D almost exclusively, and I achieved the 55th rank in 1D3Hours (is 1D 12 or 24 hours? I couldnt have played 27 hours?!)

    By the time I reached 55 rank, I was able to consistently pass 1:1 KDR, and Im completely new to COD franchise. So the ranking is kind of like the "fun and training" part, where you get to unlock new "sh!t". By the time that part of the game ends, you know most maps fairly well, and have adjusted to the dynamics. No pro yet, and the skill is still on the lower levels.

    Beats the persistent stat tracking with "ribbons" and "icons" by a long, long mile.

    Im amazed. How the hell could IW pull off so much good stuff in just one game?

          I'll have to check and see how long I've been playing. I'm just about to hit lvl 41.

              Because you get a lot of pts for other actions than kills...planting a bomb, defusing a bomb, killing the bomb carrier, etc, etc. Plus, you don't feel like slitting your wrists from spawning and dying every 5 seconds on Shipment.

              Seriously though, unless you have a lot of people, or the server is set to a very high frag limit, 2k and 3k pt totals usually don't show up on non-objective gametype servers from pure kills alone. But it's pretty common on objective-gametype servers if the round goes 15-20 mins or more.

                i dindt think of the bonuses for killing the bomb carrier doh,

                the shipment servers i try to go with 30+ people that way i can get into my spots with a lmg and waste all my ammo, then whip out the p90 and continue lol. pretty stupid how well you can do if you can get into a few locations.

                even better if you get chain air strikes instead of choppers because the choppers suck.
