Ranking up is alot easier and quicker in MW2. Plus it gets even easier when you prestige, cos you unlock more challenges.

Quick question. Do you keep your prestige challenges when you prestige, or do they get reset aswell?

So who is there to prove ourselves to strangers kinda sad if you care what random people online think. Also there are no bad weapons in mw2 they all kick ass so starting at default is not harder. prestige is a joke and half cheated to get it so it means nothing


So you're saying you'd rather sit on level 70 for a year have every gun instead of actually challenging yourself to reach max level? How is prestige half cheated? I'm second prestige without cheating at all.

Also, the definition of prestige

"reputation or influence arising from success, achievement, rank, or other favorable attributes."

That's exactly why I prestige. People see me and my friends and say damn he must of worked hard for that. I get a reputation arising from achievement. When people see people like you they say "Oh another lazy ass who cba to hit the button."

gotta agree with that too

if ur the type that gets to rank 70 and stays there n just uses the ak47 for example, chances are u wont be as good as someone who prestige and is on level 1

For the simple reason is the person who prestiges always has to adapt tactics because of loss of weapons, this alone will make him a better player than someone who stays on level 70

and incase someone replies "oh but a rank 70 has access to all weapons", my answer to this... A level 70 wont change up weapons, he will get his loadouts and stick to them, this goes for over 80% of all players from cod4, to waw, and now it will be the same with mw2

uhm.. You get a custom class at: 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, prestige Happy. Therefore there is NO reason to go to that horrible queer tenth badge. I love badges 6,7,8,9.

I prestiged my kd went up lol have I proven myself yet
The guns are all awesome easy to level not hard at all.
the reason prestige means nothing is half is cheated no one can tell I did it fair unless there on my friends list and watch my stats. So how can you just give respect if you don't know how they got that prestige.

prestige is more fun I was wrong there and that sexy FAL title is worth it lol.

Just because someone wants to stay at rank 70 doesn't mean their loadouts will always be the same. There are still assault rifles I haven't touched yet because I would barely focus on any rifle UNTIL I got to level 70. What I did was figure out the FASTEST path of the weapon challenges to get there, and I'm just going to repeat that when I prestige. Until then, I'm going to max out everything I have to earn it all now because of what I did put into it already. Then I'll go for the next set of challenges. Bottom line is...I'm not spoiled by having all the big scopes. I rarely use them anyways. Most of the time, I'm using iron sights.

Then again, I understand not everyone plays like me. I know there are lots of top ranked no prestige people that do this, but the ones that are actually dedicated to learning all the aspects of every gun before they enter prestige will be that much more prepared for it.
