Scorestreaks or Killstreaks?

[GazzaGarratt 11,066]

On Modern Warfare 2 you can switch between using Scorestreak and Killstreak so which one do you prefer using and why?

 

Post your reason below 👇

Used to do Killstreak all the time but let's face it - now that we have a choice and I am an absolute objective scoring whore then there was only one answer.

In MWII scorestreaks everytime. You get points from objectives, assists and field upgrades. 

 

I'm also pretty sure that assists also includes UAV and CUAV assists,

Score streaks = easy streaks. Everything you do gives you score.

I used Killstreaks when the game first launched. 

 

Then I realised how good scorestreaks were. 

 

Scorestreaks FTW!

Scorestreaks are definitely the way to go.  It’s less important if you just play tdm but objective games modes scorestreaks are the only way.  Though given the score is basically the same as kills in TDM it makes you wonder why it’s not scorestreaks as default.

 

I just wish they’d have brought back the perk that allows streaks to count to other streaks.

Didnt even know there was this option until I read this!😂

The air would be constantly filled with air support then I guess.

It wasn’t a problem on MW2019 though.

Scorestreaks FTW. 

You get score for everything - kills, assists, using streaks, if you have a UAV or CUAV up then you'll get assist points if team mates get a kill. 

Scorestreaks just make more sense.

What perk is that? 

 

I do the score. I see no reason to do kills as things like assists, DDOS, ammo crates would also count even in tdm. 

 

To make KS worth it, the should also the KS to stack for your next streak which is what I think you are talking about. It shouldn't count for Points as those are so easy to get.

In MW2019 it was Kill Chain.

Yeah Kill chain was good. 

 

Pointman from MW19 turned your Killstreaks to Scorestreaks. 

 

A match of Kill Confirmed or Grind was helluva OP with it on Shipment. 

Even with a few kills and some tags, you could get a VTOL or Chopper extremely easily.

I definitely use score streaks, comes in handy when you're only getting assists because your playing with kill stealing bastards 🤣

I didn’t even know there was an option to swap 😂 where is this option?

Tbh, I didn't either until I played it for 2-3 weeks and one of the guys said you could do it.

 

Its when you create a class so you are on the 'Weapons' Tab. Then press R2 (RT on XBox) and you can switch it there.

Well, maybe I should give it another go.  With 6500+ kills in total I have 2300 assists..

Honestly, I now actually get so many more VTOLs and Chopper Gunners because I'm so focused on the objective that I end up getting more points than most every round. Eventually a streak will happen by doing this. 10 points every 4-5 seconds on the Hardpoint too.
