(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey guys and gals, it’s me Scorcher5000 again Most of you, hopefully all of you :p will have seen my guide to the Nuke, it went down pretty well, I enjoyed writing it, and hopefully helped a lot of people too, so I decided to write another guide. If you have not read the Nuke guide, please read it, link should be in my signature (depends on when you are reading this), if it isn’t, here it is: You must login or register to view this content.

Ok, I would like to start off by giving you some information about myself. I did nuke boosting once in a FFA with a friend, it was boring as ****. I hated it, it was just a waste of time and harsh on the people who were playing normally, me coming up and ruining the game for them because I couldn’t get nukes myself. So I decided to get nukes the real way, found out that it was probably easier, and with less hassle than boosting is. Then I got nukes, and I got a lot of them. After getting the nuke emblem, It kind of got easier for me, because I felt that I was more experienced in getting nukes, and thought that I was going to get one ever match (I got 1 ever 2 matches minimum). I then tried to get a nuke in FFA, as I heard it was hard, because if you get past 5 kills then die, you can’t do it anymore. 1st match I joined, had 2 nuke boosters in it, I just saw 1 persons kills go up rapidly, constantly getting headshots, I was really pissed off, I decided to go hunt them down, it was on estate, Guide 100% by scorcher5000 off NGU I was running everywhere, until I heard the sound of the tactical insertion being placed. I snuck up on them, killed them both, they left, sent me messages saying ‘why did u have to ruin It for us you stupid so-and-so’. I found it surprisingly fun. I did a few matches just trying to find boosters, I never got a nuke called in on me in a FFA, but I had a couple of really close calls.

Then, about 2 months later I saw the CoD4 spinning gold cross emblem, I wanted it, but I hated the AC130 with a passion and knew the only way I could do it was… by boosting . I did AC130 boosting in groundwar domination for about 5 days, and now I have the emblem, and it is great. Through doing this, I know all the spots to go in, and I know the most common spots that boosters go in, whether it’s free-for-all or ground war domination. And I am writing this, to help you go hunt them down, it also, in a way is helping boosters, because Guide 100% by scorcher5000 off NGU if they didn’t know about these spots, they might use them, but hopefully more people will be trying to hunt them down, than those trying to boost.

What boosters do

Free-for-All – here, 2 friends meet up in some ‘hidden’ spot, and they both put down a tactical insertion, and one person kills the other person until he gets a chopper gunner, then gets as many kills with that as he can with the chopper gunner, then if he has 25 kills, he calls in the nuke, Guide 100% by scorcher5000 off NGU if he doesn’t he carries on killing his friend until he has 25, then calls in the nuke. He does this 10 times, until he has the emblem, then they swap turns. Takes absolutely ages, and is really slow, you get killed quite a lot.

AC130/Chopper gunner in a Domination – here, 2 friends meet up in the lobby of a ground war, they try to get it to be a Domination, if it isn’t, they leave, and keep trying to get in again. They keep leaving and joining until they find a domination, and that they are on different teams. Wasteland is the most popular map for this, due to being able to get 30+ kills in the AC130. They meet up then in a hidden spot. And 1 person dies 11 times, person number 2 calls in the AC130/chopper gunner, gets a lot of kills, person 1 kills person 2 once, then person 1 dies 11 times, this is repeated until the Spectre Challenges are complete. This is actually quite quick, and not as boring, and the reward(s) are great. Guide 100% by scorcher5000 off NGU I do not condone, or recommend it, but I did it, it wasn’t too hard.

The Class

Obviously to do ‘hunt them down’ you will need a class, there are a variety of classes you can choose from. I recommend having one class just for this purpose of killing boosters, if you spend a lot of time doing domination, FFA, or just want to go kill them. If you have not prestiged, or have a lot of classes, and can’t waste a single class slot, the default ‘overwatch’ class will do pretty well. If you have not prestiged, but want more classes feel free to get a prestige hack done for you, Guide 100% by scorcher5000 off NGU I could do it for you on PS3, link to my shop: You must login or register to view this content.

My Favourite class:

Primary Weapon: UMP45 w/ Silencer – so you move quicker, and if you have to shoot any enemies on the way there, they won’t see you on the map. You must login or register to view this content. + You must login or register to view this content.

Secondary Weapon: RPG x2 – fire this at them, bang and the boosters are gone You must login or register to view this content.

Semtex – throw one of these at them, and it will most likely kill one, or both of them, and if it doesn’t, they will have to run out, for them to dodge it, allowing you to kill them. You must login or register to view this content.

Special Grenade: Flash grenade x2 – completely disorientates them, scares the living shit out of them, and they won’t be able to see anything, or fight back. You must login or register to view this content. You must login or register to view this content.

Perk 1: Marathon Pro – Helps you so that you can sprint constantly to the spot where they are, hopefully getting to them before they manage to get to a high killstreak. You must login or register to view this content.

Perk2: Cold Blooded Pro – Stops them from killing you with Harriers/Predators/chopper gunners/AC130’s. Also, if they are hiding in a bush, and you sneak up on them, they will not be able to see your name, which is extremely helpful. You must login or register to view this content.

Perk3: Sitrep – Their tactical insertions can be seen as a bright red blotch through walls, from quite far away. Helps you pinpoint their exact position as quickly as possible. You must login or register to view this content.

TIPS

Usually, the person shooting will be facing the only way you can enter the ‘spot’, so make sure they are flashed before you go in, else you might get shot, alert them, then they will have to change spots.

If you throw a grenade/fire a rocket launcher, and it kills both of the boosters, but a ‘denied – you have destroyed an enemy tactical insertion’ DOESN’T come up, that means that they will spawn again, so make sure you quickly run there, and wait for them to spawn.

After you kill them the first time, sometimes they will watch the whole killcam, in the hope that you will walk away from the tactical insertion, DON’T! Make sure you stay there until they spawn, they will spawn there again, killcams last 7 seconds (I counted), so make sure you stay there for at least 10, if nobody spawns, go up to it, click square (PS3) or B (360). This will destroy it, and ensure they don’t spawn behind you and kill you.

If a tactical insertion is places right by a wall, you can see the ‘glow’ through the wall without the need of sit rep.

When someone places a tactical insertion, you can hear a sound similar to someone trying to start a fire using a rock, or as someone once said, a fat guy taking off a belt

If 2 people have the same clan tag, but are on different teams, or just in a FFA, usually it means they will be up to something, unless it is something unoriginal, that a lot of people use, like ENG or USA or FRA or HIV+ etc. So if you see this, sure sign of boosters.


Maps

NOTE: This is mainly for FFA, because on free for all, if you open up your radar, you will not be able to see anyone, and so you will need to know where the spots are if you are to find them.

On domination, you can quite simply open up the radar by clicking START, the green arrows are people (in case you didn’t know) on your team. You can see when someone is boosting by looking at the kill feed in the bottom left corner of the screen. If you see that one person is constantly getting killed by the same person, and one person is constantly killing the same person, it most likely means they are boosting. Look on the map, by clicking START, if you see someone standing still, not moving, while everyone else is running around as normal, they are probably the ones who are doing the boosting. Go to the green arrow which is not moving, and as you get closer to him, if you hear the sound of a tactical insertion being placed, and someone getting shot (even if they have a silencer, you can still quite easily hear their gun), there is someone there!

Thank you to N-Sesh for the crosses on the pictures. The crosses were copied off him, but I was the one who placed them on the maps, I just copied the actual image of the cross. You must login or register to view this content.

These spots are used on Domination as well as FFA.

On my nuke guide, when I posted the maps, people flamed it, and said ‘those maps suck’ etc etc, so these are the spots that I FOUND PEOPLE ON, or that I saw a lot of people there, in other peoples videos (videos are towards the end of the guide). So please do not flame me about the maps. Thanks

Afghan

Afghan is relatively easy for nuke boosters/AC130 boosters to boost on, so it is quite a common map for them to go on. They will be hiding either in the grass in the southeast corner of the map. Or in the little ‘storage’ place right at the bottom of the map. If they are in the grass, you can simply run up near it, toss a flash grenade into the grass, if a ‘hit marker’ comes up that means someone is there, and then throw a semtex right in that spot, and they will be wiped out. If they are in the storage spot, by the stairs on the edge of the map, do the same thing with the flash, then fire an RPG or throw a semtex at the ground by it, killing the boosters. Watch out though, because if the semtex/RPG’s don’t kill them, they will know where you are, and they could quite easily find you.

Derail

There are many spots on this map to hide, so it is also a common map for boosters to go on. The main areas are on the very left of the map, in the trees, by where you place the bomb in Search and Destroy. All you do here is throw a flash at them to blind them, then either shoot at them with your gun, or throw a semtex/fire a launcher. The other main spot is on the very right of the map, in the buildings right by the edge, in the different shops. With your sitrep on, you will be able to see the tactical insertions, go to this shop/building, throw in a flash to disorientate them, and then go for the semtex/RPG combination again. If necessary, shoot them .

Estate

Very easy map to do boosting on, because there is a spot where people do not usually go by, and is very well hidden, there are a few spots where they tend to do it, but they are mainly concentrated in 1 area, making it easy to find them. They usually go at the very top of the map, by where the ‘electricity generators’ are. They will either hide in the grass, in the very corner (even though it is not very high, from afar it is hard to notice anyone is there. Or they will hide in the building/right outside it. Guide 100% by scorcher5000 off NGU They are relatively hard to kill, because they have a good view of the surrounding area, and will gun down anyone coming near them, so I recommend flash then semtex, and if that fails shoot them, if they are INSIDE the building, an RPG works very well at clearing the whole thing out.

However, recently I have started seeing more and more people do it in 2 other areas. On is at the bottom of the map, by the greenhouse, and the main building, in the ‘garden’, near the greenhouse, there is a really tall pile of logs stacked up, I have seen more and more people do it behind that, very easy to see the tactical insertion through the pile if you have sit rep, but you can easily throw a flash near it, disorientate them, then run up and kill them either by stabbing them, or just plain old shooting them.

Another spot where I’ve seen 2 or 3 people go, is in the boat house, at the very right of the map, there is a way of getting under the actual ‘boat’ and still be quite hidden, sit rep, again makes it easy to spot the tactical insertions, best plan here is just simply flash then RPG them or throw the semtex.

Favela

Purely impossible to do boosting on this, there is simply nowhere that you can hide, where enemies are not constantly running past due to the size of the map, and it being close quarters action only.

Highrise

Only 1 spot that I have seen people do it, it is on the very edge of the map on the right hand side, you can get here quite easily, you just go to the edge, and fall straight down, do not jump off, slowly edge off the side, and you will fall onto a small ledge, which looks approximately a foot thick, the shooter tends to stand right in the corner on the marked spot, and shoot the other guy, this makes it harder to kill them, as you cannot look directly down, and kill the shooter without getting yourself killed, only the person getting shot at, so I recommend going near the edge of the building (the building being the WHOLE map) and shooting the RPG at the LEDGE which they are standing on. If it fails, try shooting them when they look up or move, it will 9/10 times kill them.

There is another spot, which, if you go underground, in the area linking C and A directly, if you follow that, you will reach some stairs which go up to the main buildings where A/C are, you can go behind these stairs, I have seen people here before. Thanks to one of the the people who commented on my guide for this.

Invasion

The spots on this map are self explanatory, by the Jeeps, in the building by C, a lot of spots in this building, so make sure to clear it out effectively. By A, there are a couple of spots, either right in the corners of the car park, or in that long building/on the roof by it. If they are in the building by C, throw flashes into the long corridors, and then when you find them, shoot them, because you probably won’t have too much time to throw a semtex. If they are by the jeeps, they will be able to see you running by the long road from A to the Jeeps, and from C, to the jeeps, however, they will not shoot you, unless you actually run directly for the jeeps, because it would give away their position, so try to make it look as if you are just running by, and then either sneak right up to them, or explode the nearest jeep.

Karachi

This is also quite a self explanatory map, in the corner, by the dumpsters, behind the ‘diner’ / restaurant, flash then stun combination works well, or an RPG into the wall by it should successfully clear them out. If not, just shoot them. The most popular spot is right back, by one team spawns, near where the elevator is, this place is completely deserted, I think it is by A, there are many spots here, I have shown the main spot on the map below. The other spot, rarely used however, is by the ‘bridge’ near the middle of the map, by the area where most of the action is, there is a car, and quite a dark area, where they sometimes go to. Flash then semtex will kill them, or just fire an RPG.

Quarry

Not really too much to say about this map, the most popular spot is right at the bottom, on the map, I put the marker smaller, so it can pinpoint the spot more precisely, so make sure you do not miss it, flash then semtex combination works like a charm, or just an RPG.

In the building where B is, there is sometimes people in there, in the top floor, because people rarely ever go up there, quite hard to kill them with your gun, so just throw a semtex there, or fire an RPG at them. The other 2 spots, I can’t really explain, only reason they are used is because they are in the corners of the map, semtex/RPG them.

Rundown

Invasion is a favourite for AC130/chopper gunner boosters, because there are a few spots which are not by the main ‘traffic’ and the map is very open, and it is very easy to get multiple multi kills (alliteration FTW! If you don’t know what it means : You must login or register to view this content.). The most common spot, obviously is the petrol station all the way in the lop left, most of the time, they will go here, and go right up to the corners, if they do this, you will be able to see the tactical insertions THROUGH the wall, which means they are there! If they are here, the flash then semtex/RPG combination works very well in clearing them out.

Near the petrol station, there is a big line of grass, this grass is very tall, and thick, so it is also a popular space for boosters, because people will not think of going there, and at first glance, you can’t see anything, if they do not have cold blooded PRO, then you can just look through it, and see the names, if they are smart, they will not shoot you, unless you start shooting Guide 100% by scorcher5000 off NGU them, because it gives away their position, so once you find them, semtex and shoot, don’t bother with the stuns. If you do not successfully kill them, they will move spot, probably still in that area of grass.

Yet another spot on this map, with grass in it It is to the right of the map, in the canal/river/sewage thing, right at the end, there are steps going up, the CONCRETE steps, not the thin metallic steps, behind the concrete steps, there is a BIG patch of grass, which is quite deep, and goes on for quite a long way, they also like to go here, but sometimes they are stupid, and you can see the glow from the tactical insertions. Flash and semtex combination works like a charm here, good spot also for getting the MULTI C4 challenge, so try it out

Another spot… meh, this map has quite a lot of them. These spots are less common, so only go to them if you try the other spots, and still cannot find them. The first one is near the top of the map, there Is a building and a truck by it, the truck is pretty much in the corner of a wall, in the corner, there is a bit of grass, and it is quite hidden, sometimes they go here, just explode the truck, or throw a semtex to clear out the noobs. The last spot, is right at the top of the map, there is quite a secluded spot, I have only ever seen 2 people go here, but this spot might get more popular. Just a semtex will do, as they will not see you unless you go RIGHT up to them.

Rust
Doesn’t come up in the’ Groundwar Domination’ playlist. Also it is impossible to do FFA boosting on it, for obvious reasons. So I will not bother with this map.

Scrapyard
Impossible to do boosting on this, there is simply nowhere that you can hide, where enemies are not constantly running past.

Skidrow

This map is usually ignored by AC130/chopper gunner boosters, due to the fact that most of the action goes on in the main building in the middle, however if the ‘enemy’ team has C and B, and they are pushing forward through the building, and the other team constantly spawns outside by A, you can get a reasonable amount of kills. For FFA boosting, it is not too bad, Guide 100% by scorcher5000 off NGU as there is a good spot to go to where you would never normally go to, right in the top left corner. There are a few ‘shipping crates’ stacked on top of each other, if you go all the way up to the back of the map, you can jump on some boxes, and onto the crates, right in the corner is where they usually do it. I tend to just jump up there, and fire an RPG right into the corner, always kills them, no need for flashes or semtex’s, because there is nowhere for them to run, as essentially they trap themselves in the corner.

Sub base

Yet another self explanatory map, the most popular spot is right at the top of the map, there are a lot of big crates, and then there is a small building which you can go into, and a bigger building by it which you can’t go into (NOT C, but near C), they usually go near that, you can see the tactical insertions easily, and hear them easily if you are anywhere near the spot. Flash then Semtex them.

The other spot is by C, in the bottom left corner, not much to say about it… RPG them, or throw a semtex. This spot is also quite used; these are the only real 2 spots on this map. Very easy to kill them, and also to find them.
You must login or register to view this content.

Terminal

This map has 3 spots, all are quite often used. The most commonly used is in the top right corner, BEHIND the big box shaped things, you can get behind here, but do not actually go behind it, just stick a semtex to the wall by it, or shoot an RPG there, no need to actually get ‘involved’ too much, very little chance of you dying.

The other spots are less used, but still used quite a lot, one is by the ‘scanners’/ ‘detectors’, just anywhere behind there, or in the little room by it, easy to find them, just throw a flash anywhere behind them, and it will get them, then shoot them.

The other one is, on ground level, under the plane, where the thing is, that leads INTO the plane, you can go under that, and there is a little ‘dip’ or ‘alcove’ which goes INTO the actual main terminal, they sometimes go here, easy to shoot them from the top of the building with the big gas tank on top of it. Or fire an RPG at them. Very easy to spot them, if you are actually looking for them.

You must login or register to view this content.

Underpass

Very easy map to boost on, due to the high grass, and the fact that the concentration of fighting is mainly in the middle. A well used spot, is all the way to the left, there is a building, in this building, you can go upstairs, Guide 100% by scorcher5000 off NGU and people will rarely/never go up here. Just go on the stairs, and throw a semtex there, or you can throw one through the window into it. Guide 100% by scorcher5000 off NGU

Just outside that building, in the corner of that quite abandoned bit, there is a car, with some very long grass/ a bush, next to it, they have a habit of going there, flash then semtex them, or fire an RPG. Same can be said for the other spot on the map, in the top right, by the 2 storage containers.

Videos
These are videos of other people nuke booster hunting, mainly on FFA

This one is by golden glove, he is on Estate, he looks behind the logs, they aren’t there, kills himself to spawn closer to the other spot, they are there. Good, short video. [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ip9mJiJwcQ"]YouTube- Modern Warfare 2 Booster Justice[/ame]

These ones are by The Sandy Ravage, he is a God at this, his videos explain it really well, not quite as clearly as mine . But it shows a LOT of spots, and what he does to deal with the boosters.

This guy, has really good videos, what he does is, at the beginning, he doesn’t choose a class, clicks back, then watches them, to see where they go, works better if you join mid game though, because you don’t have to spend a min or 2 waiting for them to get to position. Guide 100% by scorcher5000 off NGU He has a lot of videos, although they are not too good quality. Shows a lot of spots.

This is a pro guy, his videos don’t have too many clips, but at 1:50ish on this one, you can quite clearly hear the sound of the tactical insertion being placed, and the knife, if you hear this repeatedly, there is someone there!

If you have any vids of ‘Booster Justice’ (I know Sesh does, but I couldn’t find the video again ) I will gladly post them here.
If I find any good videos of booster justice, I will post them, so hopefully this will keep getting updated.

And this is pretty much the end of my guide. I really really REALLY hope you enjoyed it, as I spent a lot of time doing it and I really like helping you guys. PLEASE try out booster hunting/ booster justice, as it is really fun, and hopefully eradicate this disease (for anyone who has listened to BMTH, you will understand this, if not, just ignore it ).

If you enjoyed it, please +rep, thank or even nominate it, as I spent a lot of time on it!

And last but not least, thank you for reading it. Please could you comment on it, to bump it up, so that as many as possible people read it

12 pages. 4500 words. Whoah.

This guide is 100% written by me, Scorcher5000. Please do NOT rip this and put it on some other site claiming it is yours. If you see this on any site, please tell me. I guarantee you, nothing here is copy and pasted, apart from the videos.

great guide scorcher, my set up is slightly diff though but not by much, p90 with extedend mags, and i used semtex, the reason i use semtex is the some places u cant hit clearly wih a rocket or gun and get both people in 1 go (as people will interupt u as ur trying to stop the bosters), and semtex is grat for that, esp on some of the maps like quarry wherei they are in an elevated position, ive been killing ffa boosters like this since mw2 bosters started appearing, and only a coule of time have they managed to get a nuke

on a side note, it is possible to nuke boost ffa on scrapyard, the easiest spots would be on top of the planes (ud besurprised how may people dont look up there), and in the alcove of the burning truck, (claymores each side with scavenger) i personally done this just to show nuke boosters up and got a nuke a few times

great guide, gonna thank you for it as it will help breed the nextgen anti boosters, keep up the good work

---------- Post added at 09:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 AM ----------

completetly forgot whati was gona put lol, mean to add, the reason i use the p90 with extended mags, its not just less time reloading, so on ur way back to the boosters you got more chance of not getting kills, theres also method to my madess in not using a silencer deliberatly

if for some reason i dont have a semtex or any other explosive, i go as close to bosters as i can, and burst shot a whole extended mag into the air, the reason for this you ask?

simple, any enemy that is close to your position, will 95% come looking for me (unless they are camping themselves) as im firing from the same spot and the dot for them isnt movig, they think easy kill, and in fact its true, i am giving away an easy kill, but im also forcing more players towards the booster without them realizing it, alot of people in FFA dont bother going after the boosters, this way you force a game of ffa players to be anti nuke boosters.

this always works for me, havnt had a nuke in ages, id recommend it if anyone is having probs with nuke boosters (esp more than 2 people nuke boosting in a group)

That is an amazing strategy Dub Zee, never thought of it that way. Also, the boosters wouldn't realize you just pretty much lazed their position to everybody else in the game, they'd just think you were being retarded and wouldn't think twice about it.

exactly dylan, alot of people dont bother going after the boosters, esp in FFA games, so i came up with that strat within a month of boosters showing up cos people wasnt looking 4 boosters and i was getting killed trying to stop the boosters by other players

id rather die a few times if it forces everyone on to the boosters position, as only a small % seem to go looking for boosters, use it to our advantage

Credit for what? You didn't do anything.



Oooh, smart, forgot to put that in! Thanks.



:L Thanks for the tip. Glad you liked it.



True

Awesome post man.

Quite impresive guide for anti-boosters. Rep+ ofc.

Hehe thanks for the rep, glad you liked it... this will sound really nooby, but what does ofc mean?

you missed a couple spots on the highrise map, they boost on the other side scaffolding, and below the stairs underground.

I also like to use c4s for boosters.. easy way to get the multi-c4 kills.

Where is the Scaffolding? And I've added the spot behind the steps.

I think semtex is better than C4, due to the fact you can throw it from further away, and it is impossible to run away from, C4 is dependant on how close you are, and how quickly you click to detonate it.

gonna jump into a private match in a minute and double check I dont have my sides mixed up.

I jump when I throw my c4 and it gives it another 5 feet or more in distance, so I dont have a problem detonating it. plus, if I die in the process of killing some nuke boosters - it's an act or heroism.

also, people boost on the crane in highrise, at the very base where the controls kinda block them out. and if both are lucky enough, you could both get on the roof, or on the balcony of the one building inside.
