FORUMS_

i think you're problem is basically you need to use a launcher not an lmg , personaly i dont have an issue with lodestars,

1) they go boom fast with launchers

2) you can take cover

3) its a high killstreak so not many people get them

4) standing there shooting killstreaks with an lmg is like walking around with a big sign saying free kill here come and get it

The problem is idiot team mates that don't have a class to shoot them down. I played a game last night where one went up and I was the only player on my team trying to shoot it down. And I kept dying because none of my team were using Cold Blooded so when they died they'd spawn next to me and i'd get killed by a missile heading for them

They are very rare, I hardly ever see anything higher than a stealth chopper. Just back out of the game and find a new lobby.

there is building you can stay in for the time its up and it cant kill you....common sense people.

If you're on an idiotic team that dont try and take it out, then yes you will feel its OP. It will rip your team apart, especially on a map with little cover like slums, its easily dealt with using a launcher though.

I can't tell if the OP is serious or not.  If you are then maybe you should play something else.  It is supposed to be hard to shoot down.  And the ROF isn't all that great in it.

This is why these forums can just be silly.

Half of you think it's OP, half think it needs improvement.

Half of you complain it can't be taken down, half complain that you don't have enough time to use it because it's shot down too fast.

Before and after the patch, I could take it down.

But it all comes down to team play. Teams usually can take it down quick, randoms that know what they are doing can take it down quick too.

I could do a lot of damage with it too, if teams talked.

It's not the killstreak that is OP, it's the lack of experience or caring in the players that game.

You kmow what I do? I go back and look at the video to see how the player got one, so I can do it next time.

Finally, with just a little practice, you can prevent anyone from getting a big killstreak.

I take them down no problem with a specific stealth class for fast arial takedowns. Ive had such a class since I started playing the COD series because its presumably common sense. Ill fire two via the launcher, C4 myself (if not killed) and shoot again, result: enemy Lodestar goes bye bye in under 10 seconds. You'll potentially incurr 3 deaths max.

You are essentially admitting your incapable of playing the game correctly and are overwhelmingly stupid if you have difficulty carrying out the above actions successfully.

its the future get used to it.

There is so much common sense win in this thread it is ridiculous. Everyone else is able to deal with it very easily. So how is it you can't? There are numerous things in this game that can deal with it quickly and efficiently. Try anything anyone suggested here and you will see for yourself. The only thing that needs nerfing in this game are the people that want everything nerfed.
