(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); This is a good strategy I use all the time. I personally find it most effective solo or for 2 people, you can do it with more but generally you'll not have enough points. I will explain this for 2 people, but you can do it solo as well.

This method can be used to rush through the early levels and set yourself up with some quick points, I know some people believe that its best to take it slow and steady but I disagree, this allows you to get to 20+ pretty quickly and from there its more or less smooth sailing assuming you don't completely suck.

Round 1-4
The plan can be simplified to "knife and rush". When you start out in the beginning just knife, do not buy weapons, do not shoot. You should be able to stay in the main room (do not buy any doors or weapons) until at least round 3-5. Before going anywhere make sure you at least each have 3000-4000 points (I'd suggest one person have at least around 4000 and the other no less than 3500 for it to be most effective). Assuming you've divided the windows fairly and are only knifing, it shouldn't take long or be very difficult.

Round (end of) 4
Once you're at that point, start opening doors. I'd suggest you take the route under the stairs that leads into the out door alley way, I find it just generally better, although some may disagree. Whoever has less money should open the first two doors, the other clearing the rest of the doors. If you're pretty much equal, alternate doors (one person does 1 and 3 while the other does 2 and 4). This will ensure a more or less equal spread of money. Your only goal at this point is to make it to the stage. You're going to want to leave at the end of a round (probably end of round 4), if zombies start jumping on you in the alley way just keep going and throw grenades behind you.

Round 5
Once you've made it to the stage you should be able to start killing, shoot if you need to although its better to just knife as you'll only be on round 5. Just sort of share the zombies, and throw grenades if needed (that's important throughout the rest of the guide, don't be grenade-shy).
Remember that your grenade can only hurt you and the zombies, you won't damage your team member(s).

Round 6-7
Save up for 3000 points, when either round five or six comes to an end (however long it takes for you to each get 3000 points) turn on the electricity, the curtain will be open. Sort of across the auditorium from the stage will be the bowie (I think that's how its spelled) knife. Buy the bowie knife and immediately rush back onto the stage. Bear in mind that after purchasing the bowie knife it takes some amount of time before you can actually start knifing with it, so just don't get cornered (it only takes a second or two).

Round 7
You should be good to go only knifing until round 10. At this point the bowie knife is a one hit kill. Shortly after that you should each easily get 2500 points, as soon as you hit that amount, go buy the juggernaut (jugger-nog) upgrade, its nearby the bowie knife. Once you both have the bowie knife and juggernaut you probably won't down for quite a long time.

Round 7-10
Somewhere between round 7-10 you're going to want to try to locate the random weapon box (either by sight or by looking at the map), during these rounds you should start to make your way to it and use the box. One person use it and the other person cover. Each person should not go more than 3 times, at which point if they don't have a decent gun, they should just give up for a bit and come back later. Decent guns include some assault rifles (that don't suck), LMGs, and of course the thunder gun/ray gun. If you get monkeys, definitely by that, they'll come in handy in the event one of you downs. Remember to keep knifing until round 10, if you knife the crawlers that have the greenish smoke coming out of them they won't release gas or explode.

By round 10 you should each have the following: a bowie knife, juggernaut, and a decent random weapon.

Round 10-20
You may need to start shooting after round 10, once you each have 5000 link up the teleporter (between rounds) and pack a punch your random weapon.
From there keep mainly to the stage area, venturing out only to use the random weapon box with the goal of both having either or both: the thunder gun, the ray gun. You'll want to pack a punch these as soon as you get them.

Round 20+
Once you both have at least a pack a punched ray gun and at least one of you has a pack a punched thunder gun, just stay at the stage. Run in circles and use grenades, both knifing and firing that ray gun, if you are being overwhelmed use the thunder gun (or tell your teammate to do so).

I've seen people make it easily to round 50 using this strategy because you get through the early rounds fast and you get the good guns sooner than later. If done right you may have a pack a punched gun by round 7 or 8. You should be set by round 20 to make it for a while.

Hmmmm Nice strategy. Ill try it out. But isnt a bit hard to herd zombies with 2 people?

I dont mean to "diss" your strategy because its actually a very good one and i also use this for the most part. There is just 1 little flaw. Points, points are everything in the later/mid rounds.

I never PAP a weapon until about round 30+ the longer you stay with a weaker weapon the more points you will make. Yea u will get max ammos early on but not so much in the later rounds. U need to keep the PAP option open for incase u "need" the ammo to finish the rounds until the next dogs. Usuallly when i play, if a 2 player game, by round 30 ill have around 60,000-70,000 points extra. Which comes in handy. People say it is being wasted but honestly its a safety net.

If in the later rounds you are to down, u need to be able to buy back ALL of your perks for a total cost of 9,000 points. I ALWAYS buy double tap before a PAP because yea it wastes ammo faster but it still gets the job done without spending an extra 3,000 points. And it also effects ALL your weapons not just the one upgraded.

The best plan with 2 players would be have 1 person run on the stage while the other either easily camps in the alley switching off or they also run say the mp40 room or lobby just buying ammo from the wall making a ton of money. Yes it takes just a bit longer to kill the zombies so you dont see a massive quick high rounds, but it makes it where ur able to turn on turrets and traps, buy new guns from box, buy perks if downed, and PAP later on.

I have been in the 50s before but i have also had over 300,000 points extra just sitting there for me to use to help kill with traps and perks/guns.


Another thing, if you open going through the upstairs then when u get to the stage you wont have to open the door to the alley on the other side. Making it easier to run and not get trapped or double smacked from behind.

When i play I like to play for real, i dont want to waste 2 hrs with noobs just to die and start over at round 20something. I try and make sure the group will at least make it to 30s+ everytime i play.

There are many strats that I have used and came up with that few know about. If someone wants to join and make it far then yea sure add me on XBL. CagedData. Also check out You must login or register to view this content..

Try this with 3 or 4 people
2 People = less zombies

Yes! this is what me and my friend do.

I didn't upgrade my raygun/thunder gun until round 28 about, and throughout round 1-15 we never collected max ammo except from dogs.

Soon as we ran out of ammo on Raygun we bought the Mp40 and start activating traps.

Nice im gonna use this

ive got an awesome stratagey for dead ops

:bat:I would have to say it's a good stratgy but there is a few things i would do differently such as wen i got enough money i would 1st buy the door upstairs due to i think it is faster and 2nd i think i would buy juggernog before i got the bowie knife because i don't want to mess up 1 time and then start all over again.:bat:

Well it's different that's for sure but better or good well i guess i'll have to try it.

thanks 4 the post
