took me 11 days play, but seems like its taking forever to finish the 40 kills for the various shotgun kills on the scar,etr,

I think around 24hrs of playtime per prestige is about what the average person takes. I know there are people who are capable of doing it faster, but I'd say the vast majority probably fall into that range. Also as someone said, Elite doesn't track hardcore game modes in your playtime, as my elite profile says I've only played 16 hrs in the game when in fact I've played nearly 5 1/2 days.

I know the hours played on Elite is screwy, but kills are fairly accurate (besides the +/-  one kill/death it does for some reason). He only has 11,000. Im prestige 4, level 79 and have 22,000 or double his basically, at half of the prestiges he has, ie if I had played on double xp for the entire time Ive played, I would prob almost be 10th. Just saying it seems a bit screwy to me.

That makes sense I never play hardcore.

More than 24 hours of game time.

NOT 14-17 hours.

BO and MW3 have pulled that. Don't like running through levels at the speed of light.
