Where's the AC-130 in BO?

[Daveyjone]

Remenissing moment...

I was reading one of those old action magazines, yuo know the one where the allies have a guy or two who sneak into a enemy base then end up stealing a car/truck/plane and gunning their way out while killing hundreds of enemies... anyway, there was an article about the AC-130 in there stating it was first introduced in vietnam... so, where is it in black ops?

my first guess was it is in there but it hasn't been announced or found out, but it was such a good killstreak (not in my eyes, i couldn't hit anyone with it ) it should've been mentioned by now

my second guess was this: you know we theorised that the care package has been bolstered up from 4 to 5 because it contains weapons and killstreaks that can't be obtained normally... so maybe the AC-130 is the new EMP of the care package, what do you think?

sorry BBS i didn't mean to put perks instead of killstreaks

Because they have gotten rid of Over powered killstreaks. Look at the chopper gunner. Nows its a much more interactive killstreak. You are gunning it for real this time.

Also the care Package will not offer exclusive Killstreaks. Just the regular ones.. The only exclusives is some of the weapons.

P.S Emp is not a carepackage exclusive.

I personally didn't think it was overpowered, but then again I was terrible with it. If anything its not in te game because it was under used, that, or because the AC-130 is used for blowing up vehicles and not people.

I never used the AC-130, I used the Chopper Gunner because I sucked with the AC-130, but I would choose the Dogs over the AC-130 any day.

I would choose dogs over the Gunship as well.:)

What Perks?

Hmmm...I wonder just what that level would be like without the thermal imaging TV.

1. Not really overpowered, dogs at 7 was, so its now 11, you dont really get 14 kills with the ac130 as its SLOW, so its not really a nuke getting killstreak

2. In the killstreak pages of websites INCLUDING THIS ONE ( Go to the Home Page: black ops, multiplayer, killstreaks should have a rc car image next to it, compiled by carbon and i trust his work) they all say:

The care package has been boosted to 5 kills, this is due to it containing new weapons and killstreaks you can't buy with your CoD points

PS , i never said that. I said the AC130 might be the new EMP - as in the best thing you can get from a care pack - not only from it

@BBS: typo. sorry
