How is it done?


Just wondering how guys like Godjoey and the other kill leaders rack up so many kills. I mean im nothing more than an average player...My main is br 19 with 2100 and change kills....How do guys rack up that many kills? the numbers are quite staggering for an average player as myself. Lemme know what you think.

Lots of time + Combat Engineering + Surge + Heavy Assault + Reaver is the best guess I can make. Skill and exploitation are the two grey areas although I'm certain exploitation is very rare and I'd never accuse anyone unless I was sure, which hasn't happened in the months I've played.

When the game first came out GodJoey had a certain knack of getting cheap kills, like camping the spawn tubes of a given base or tower. Good tactic, but less than honorable, in my opinion.

The key element is playing a shitload. Being insanely good with a powerful weapon also helps, HA, Reaver, MBT gunner. Be aware of your surroundings, use third person view alot. Cert as a 1 man army, basic med and engy, AHack, specA, HA, Reaver. You could even lose AHack and grab AIMAX\AAMAX and Light Tank. Rexo is a waste of 3 certs (for most people) currently, and as a 1 man death dealing machine you need all the certs wrapped up in killing and keeping yourself alive. Carry medkits as they win fights, it is an instant 25hp. Did I mention playing a shitload?

I've squadded with Joey in the past, as far as I can tell he doesnt cheat, and i have never seen him exploit anything. He does camp spawns, but who cares? most people camp spawns. He uses pounder + reaver + infil + CE + good tactics

That is just a stupid rumor someone made to explain his high number of kills.

It's no big secret. You need to play what some would say is an unhealthy amount of time every day. During that time, you maximize killspam opportunities and minimize non-killspam activities. For example, rocket-camping busy AMS's with Reavers, spawn-camping with Pounders, and mining zerg chokepoints are all prime spamkill opportunities. Guarding hacks, doing ANT runs, repairing and healing others are not.

I've been killed by GodJoey a bunch of times. He seems to be a really good player.

One of the reasons I take great pleasure busting into a spawn room, firing off my decis, while ignoring shouts of "cease fire", and walking causaly out; announcing "Spawns at my position are down."

As far as Godjoey goes i dont think he's a cheater. In my experience he's just very good at making sure he is outgunning the other guys. More offten then not i meet up with him in his pounder messing with respawning infantry in their standard armors. He has a nack for finding the base thats not the main respawning point but is the respawn point for those wishing to rearm with vehicles... that way he can sneak in realativly easily with his infl suit, hack at term, grab his pounder and wait for the guys to pour in.

He also seems to keep on the move. Ive killed him a couple of times tryin to sneak into a base to preform this tactic but he's wise enough to not try for the same trick twice. If you watch a battle he's in, on the kill screen, you'll see his name pop up either to kill or to have been killed and then u wont see it again unless u move on to another base.

If you want kills like that its all about placement but dont expect to get much respect for it as I agree that theres no honor in this.

Camping the tubes is a big one. Being skilled with heavy assault also helps. I've seen a friend of mine mow down 5-10 enemies at a time with the mini gun. I've seen skilled NC and VS go on rampages with their heavy assault weapons also.
I usually have a low kill count. I spent a lot of time taking out spitfires, mopping up mines, guarding hacks and protecting towers and bases with my burster though too.
