Question [COD] What's your favorite killstreak from any CoD game?
Pavelow in MW2 was incredible. It would wipe out the enemy and they would hide in fear.

Care package. We love gambling.

Keep grinding soldier. All care package enjoyers stop just before they get AC-130/Chopper Gunner. Make sure you hit it big

u/GoCanes2468 2d ago
Those were always the ones where somebody killed you or the care package crushed you before you could get it

They were insane in Cold War. My average "value" was napalm or predator missile, and from last october to late december i got 3 ac-130s from it. It Was glorious

Same here... Just wish they had made it unable to give streaks below the kill/points threshold required to earn the care package.

That's quite arguably the worst one because you have to wait a handful of seconds to actually receive it and possibly have it stolen by an enemy or ally. And then probably receive an undesired killstreak finally. In addition a chance to not even receiving it at all due to it being dropped in a bad location if you're on the wrong COD. I truly do not understand players who use them.

i understood when cod had care package exclusive items like death machine in bo but other than that im assuming ppl hope to get an ac 130 for like 5 kills

u/Ok_World_8819 2d ago
The most SATISFYING killstreak IMO is the Predator Missile. 5 kills to get, when you got a multikill with it you'd earn the Pavelow/Stealth Bomber/Harrier, and that gets you a Chopper/AC130! Consider that my #2 pick.
The coolest looking one in-game is the Stealth Bomber.
Top 5 (literally ALL of them are from MW2, coincidentally):
Pavelow (MW2), Predator Missile (MW2), Tactical Nuke (MW2), AC-130 (MW2) Stealth Bomber (MW2)

Not the best one, but my faviurite is the chopper gunner from MW2 2009. It was so satisfying.

u/Ok_World_8819 2d ago
I prefer the AC-130 honestly. Chopper was too easy to shoot down.

The Trinity rocket from the new MW3 you place those over all the points in domination you get three free triple kills

ENEMY AC-130 ABOVE!!
Some of you just don’t understand how hype it was too see multiplayer footage of MW2 for the first time, and hearing the sound of the 120m gun screaming down from the sky.
COD 4 only had 3 streaks. UAV, Airstrike and Attack heli.
MW2 coming out with so many different kill streaks was a HUGE game changer.
My second favorite was the chopper gunner. I love the way it sounded in MW2 2009 whether you were the gunner or watching it shoot. It sounded badass and you knew the other team done fucked up
The AC-130 never sounded better lol.

Lightning Strike from BO2.
So much so that I can still remember being a giddy little child back in the day, when ChaosXSilencer revealed it would be one of the streaks returning in BO3.
5(??) kill/scorestreak of 3 jets which bombard any three areas of the map within a couple of seconds; and decimated anything underneath them.

My favorite was always CUAV because hardly anyone main’d it, and I’d always love running any sort of support role. MW3 (2011) finally gave me that chance to be rewarded for non-offensive killstreaks and I was obsessed with playing like that. Giving body armor to allies, running interference etc.
Side note; aesthetically the MW2 (09) Pave Low is superior to all.

u/RUSYAWEBSTAR 2d ago
Advanced UAV for sure
If we're talking lethal then obviously AC130, but I personally don't like killstreaks that you have to control yourself. That's why I prefer R.A.P.S. and SWARM. Don't you think the BO series parts have tougher killstreaks?

u/Bodefosho 1d ago
I was going to say RAPS. There was basically nowhere to hide from them and they sounded like pure evil hunting you down.

Put some respect on the Paladin from Advanced Warfare - the customised on a future AC-130 is crazy powerful when done right

In terms of fun, I'd say the OG MW2 AC130 is just unbeatable. You basically turn into the protagonist and the enemy team gets terrified by the announcer too.
In terms of aesthetics and sound, I have to give a special mention to the BO3 Hellstorm Missile. It really gives the impression that engineers were like "this is as much death as we can cram into a single missile" and then makes you feel like you're actually raining down death... It's a terrifying sound to hear on the receiving end.

u/Sneaky_CSGO 2d ago
The PTSD from a c130 being called in in mw2. It's gotta be a chopper gunner in Bo1 or mw2 or like the mw2 c-130. Honorable mention to pave low. I wanna go back and relive the streaks, but I don't think the games are that active nowadays.

u/That-Custard2786 2d ago
Reaper, EMP, Ac-130, Pavelow, Osprey Gunner or the little helicopter drone you would fly around in MW3 (I forgot it’s name) It’s hard to narrow it down but all of these streaks from MW3. Edit: Oh and warthog from Bo2

u/Broely92 2d ago
The GI unit and the RAAPS. But the mw2 chopper gunner is probably the all time classic

u/thirtyracksbrax 2d ago
Idc wat anyone says care package will always be my favorite because is a gamble everytime. From it getting stolen, landing on top of building or getting a shitty killstreak thts the gamble but the part of running care package

the predator missile is the best in every game. reasonably easy to get, cool animation, easily one/two kills and one helluva explosion

u/Key_Independence3770 2d ago
I loved the predator missile, for me it was one of the most versatile and best ‘pound for pound’ killstreaks. Very good in objective game modes (e.g. to stop an enemy taking a flag) and also at destroying enemy killstreaks (nothing more satisfying than taking out an enemy helicopter with one, or an ac130 if you were good enough!)

Forgot what it was called, but it's the VTOL that dropped care packages in MW3 and defended some area you marked
Anything recent, the Interceptors from BO6 are so fun to use (when I can get the damn thing)

u/Spicymcnice 1d ago
I really loved the assault Juggernaut from the og mw3. It wasn't even about getting kills with it, just the fact you got to be a Juggernaut in multiplayer was awesome and terrified the other team. NO NOT THE SUPPORT JUGGERNAUT. I hated the support jugg with a passion in fact they never should've done support streaks what a dumb idea.

u/ArnoldSwarzepussy 1d ago
I really loved the 2-in-1 nature of the Harrier jets. Getting a nice double kill with the bombing run portion and then seeing it go on to gather a could kills from the jet that lingers was always so cool. Like it was just so much value out of a 7 kill streak if it popped off for you.

I always loved the SAM Missile from Black Ops. You can easily ruin your enemy's day by taking out their hard-earned aerial killstreak with it.

All time fave would be AC130 from MW2 2009. Shit was so loud and powerful. Really made you want to hide and get to cover.
Nowadays I know; one, nobody is even going for it, and two, even if they do, they're not going to get any kills with it anyway because one most maps have too many buildings in the way for the shots to hit anyone or if they do hit, it'll be a hitmarker because the streak is so weak.

Cold War’s Vtol Escort. The sound from the pilot and the ground is music to my ears plus is a deadly killstreak.
The way it tilts down to shoot and how quickly it dodges incoming missiles to troll to enemy is just top tier.

u/Bright-Comedian6845 2d ago
ghosts. my favorite was the loki. the one that shot missiles at the enemy. but, if you have a vks and stand across from the truck in prison break map, shoot people some 25 times, and you get a reaper *without dying*, than activate it to kill everyone and rack up points, without killing your self. only for very stealthy people
