Sorry it is not the best image in the world. But it is from the multiplayer player trailer released back in the beta. Did they suddenly decide to bump it up at the last minute? or was it too powerful in their eyes for a 5?

Video link to the "proof" I found.

watch from about 0:17 and you will see care package is a 4, and rockets are a 5.

Edit: Find 2, they were planned to be named "arch Angle" listen carefully if you did not notice"

If you mean Valkyrie or Mortar I wouldn't want them either because Mortar Team gets you a double kill on a good day and Valkyrie can get you 2-3 kills but so could a Attack Helictopter, Blackbird. So honestly Napalm at 5 is better than Mortar at 6.


My question was about the EMP. I'd agree it's good that you didn't find it often but when someone would get the EMP it would give their team a HUGE advantage.

Also the Napalm is better than the Mortar and Valkyrie but I mean the Valkyrie can help you if someone get a chopper and no one on the team has a launcher.

Oh I didn't know that about the Valkyrie, plus people usually use them as soon as they get them, so I doubt people have enough sense to wait til enemy gets air support to use them. So it'd be luck for them to happen to get one while enemy has Air Support, good point though.

And this may sound bad but I have NEVER even bought the Strela-3. In MW2 I felt like the only person smart enough to shoot down Harriers to avoid that AC-130, Nuke that was to follow.

On Black Ops, there are no nukes so I switch to a Ghost Pro class and continue to kill the enemy while air support is up...I run the Care Package, Attack Heli, Chopper setup most often so I know how it feels to get your stuff shot down quickly. So I don't even bother shooting it down....And I know, I know that sounds bad and I'm horrible for it but honesty when I'm in public matches without friends most teammates suck so they probably deserve it after them and their splitscreen buddy goes a combined 5-28.

Actually the thing I hate the most in BO more than 2nd Chance, RC Car, AK74u, "camping" is when someone at the bottom of the list shoots down my Chopper or Gunship. It's really bullshit that it takes 2 Strelas to shoot down Attack Heli, Chopper and Gunship even though the latter two are 9,11 KS. But that's another issue.

For a trailer i doubt it
Guess after the number 5 KS in MW2 they decided against it

You know what's 100x better then a Valkyrie air support wise? A sam-turrent. Does the same thing just has infinite missiles to shoot and, it lasts a whole lot longer as well. Oh and it's lower on the killstreak chain.

No complaints from me, I too love the SAM turret and it gives you so much XP if you use it in HQ or Domi. I'm just saying that the Valkyrie has the versatility of to be used for taking out air support with one missile and get at least a kill with the other missile. It's a little bit too high at 7, 6 would have been much better.

If anything the Heli is overpowered because it takes two missile but the fact that the chopper and gunship take 2 missiles isn't bad since most of the time people prefer to run rather than shoot it down. Also if you are aiming for getting the chopper may I suggest using the UAV/Blackbird/Chopper. Once you need one kill you get very nervous and there's nothing worse then having someone with Ghost killing you so the Blackbird gives you a lot of confidence AND helps your team a lot.
