1st Prestige in Black Ops - Hupit Gaming

Few things to talk about today. First off, I just hit first prestige, in around 18 hours of play time. They make it hard for you to tell if you forget to look at your playercard before you prestige, since you can't have a playercard before level 13, which doesn't make much sense to me. I should be able to see my stats whenever I want.

So now I'm up to level 9 again. Got the first 5 levels in one game on WMD, easy enough. Though the first game without slight of hand in quite a while threw me off. Bought my MP5K class gear in these first levels, should get me a little higher.

Something I started doing today is drop shotting. (For those unfamiliar with the term, it's the act of going prone and shooting an enemy upon sight.) It actually works a lot better than I've always thought. Back in COD4 I used to laugh at people who drop shotted, because I'd end up with a head shot 9 times out of 10. But part of the reason I got into it was because I watched this video by TmarT on YouTube while eating lunch today.

I came across him through this other guy Woody, who is a YouTube commentator that calls himself the unexceptional gamer, claiming he isn't very good, but he likes team work, which is great. I love when I get a good team going in public matches. But Woody's a really nice guy from what I see in his videos. But anyway, I just figured I'd start drop shotting, so I did. The video has some nice tips on how to avoid dolphin diving when you want.

Working the transition, Woody is always talking about this website, hupitgaming.com. H.U.P.I.T. stand for Helping Unite Players Into Teams. I have to say, check this website out. It's definitely worth it. Just using the Sharing Gamertags application on the site I found around 10 decent people to play with on my first day, all around my age, which was great. Forming a team we're almost unstoppable.

So if you're like me and you're tired of playing solo all the time, head over to hupit and find a team to play with, or even just a few guys, you won't regret it. And teams make the game that much better.

If you do check it out, leave a comment, and let me know how it went. And what are your thoughts on drop shotting? Effective? Not Effective? What.

That's all for today, I probably won't post until 2011, so I hope my 2 readers have a good new year and remember,
Go Deep. Go Hard.
