Post: VTOl vs LODESTAR

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Whick killstreak is better do you think the VTOl or the LODESTAR?Trying to figure out which one should I be using

Lodestar-1500 points


Pros-Rapid fire unlimted hellfire missiles.Good targeting systems.easy to control missiles once you get used to it.Can zoom in on enemys too.Hard to shootdown(out of 27 I earned 1 has been shotdown by blackhat)

Cons-Not as much firepower as VTOl,2-4 second delay in firing missiles.If your new to it hard to control missiles.

VTOl Warship-1600 Points
Pros-Rapid firepower+infinity minigun ammo.Great targeting system.Can move around the map to spawn kill the enemy.Super rapid fire rockets(by must wait to reload aprox 5sec)

Cons-Easily shotdown(1 uniquied missile can take you down since you fly so low)At 100 extra points slighty harder to obtain(1 kill can make all the difference)

Ive so far gotten 27 lodestars and 1 vtol warship,When I used my first vtol today I noticed it got shotdown very quick in demolotion,went back to theater mode and saw a single smaw knocked me out.So even thou this is a powerfull killstreak you can be shotdown pretty easy since the ship flys low


ALso can anyone post some tips on how to use the vtol effectily i noticed there are alot of different controls you can use with it.

Cake is a lie
I hate the Theater mode issue where Lodestar vision is black...

Anyways, like I actually just mentioned in your other thread, I think Lodestar is better. If you have enough kills for Warship you might as well just use Swarm or K9 of course.

If you run Warthog, Lodestar and Warship on Kill Confirmed you can get 60+ kills I will say though. 12 Lodestar kills is basically like 4 regular kills so I believe if you get Lodestar and are using in safe spot then you'll get higher streaks easily.

I find Kill confermed to be the hardest mode to get scorestreaks in.Since I shoot people from long range and medium range and alot of the time I go to confirm my kills I run into 3 and using the fal its super hard to take on that many people with only 25 bullets and a 5 second reload time.(since most the time the players are not in a straight or semi straight line)And i was thinking the swarm or k9 were like 10 more kills lol SO i never turned it on but might turn it on now.WHat is better swarm or k9?I got both in care package on nuketown before and was not impressed as my agr got more kills but nuketown is a different style map.



***and what theater mode issue you can switch the lodestars vision to color which is what I always doo(did not notice that till my 6th one lol)

No I like the Green vision in Lodestar. What I was saying was that if you try to upload a video to youtube of a lodestar it will be black screen. Maybe I need to get a Lodestar in color and then try and watch it.

Please don't say that, we don't want it patched. The killstreaks in this game are absolutely super charged but fortunately people don't get them unless they earn them usually.

Yeah I watched one of my lodestars in theater mode for a screenshot and it was full color never noticed black(but i switch to color right away)

And I agree we dont want it patched!I've only seen about 5 lodestars that were not mine(team or enemys)and when I play Hq I noticed alot of players dont even use Score Streaks past sentry gun

Yeah after MW3 and that Support bullshit it is good to see how killstreaks are in BO2. No more noob EMPs.

Another thing I notice is since you can't customize score streaks with each loadout the enemy rarely runs Counter UAV and because of pick 10 a lot of people don't even carry a launcher and if they do they use it on shooting down UAVs so your streaks can stay up a lot longer.

Thanks for this tip I cant thank you enought!I just switched to this setup

Agr
Lodestar
VTOL

First game got all 3 followed by another agr than game ended -.-No people are thinking of hacking somehow.THis seems like the best setup since might lightning strike andh ellfire were only adding 75 points which is shit when you need 1500 points lol.

The Lodestar is amazing. I used it today on Hijacked and it was really great. I've used the VTOL too, but I like the Lodestar way more.
