Default Nukes and Effect on Kill streaks
Example: I'm 30-0 call in my nuke on ground war and get 9 kills and 1 death with it. I finsh game 39-1

Is my streak 39? Do the 9 kills with the nuke count towards the streak before my nuke death as technically everyone does at once.

Just need to know, in case I ever get a nuke and have a chance of beating my highest k/s as a guarenteed 9 extra kills would be tempting rather than continue and get shot, probally only adding another 2 or 3

thx

Probably best in the Quick Question forum...also I'm afraid I have no idea. Sorry for being absolutely no help what so ever.

I would say though that while I'd hope they add to your streak, I have a sneaking suspicion that your streak probably just ends as soon as the nuke goes off - unfair as that is. That's just my hunch though.

i don't think so because the nuke kills you too.

What the OP is asking is if after getting a nuke, do the kills from the nuke add to your total current +25 Killstreak or does your death count first (or possibly in the middle) and break the streak.

Would it not depend in which order the nuke kills everyone or does every player die at exactly the same time?

Not sure if theres any way of working it out but if the nukes kills in a specific order then if the person who call the nuke dies last even if its within a few ms of the other players then would it not count towards your kill steak as you were still alive at the time the other players dies?

Mine have not. My streak is 29 and thats after 10 + nukes. So i guess my nuke gets me first almost every time

Conclusion:
Depends on when the nuke gets you!

maybe it goes from the centre of the map out?

so if you're at the edge you might die last?

not sure how to test this though.

Default Re: Nukes and Effect on Kill streaks
would be good to know for sure as an extra 9 kills on ground war is quite a lot when trying to post a big streak

Unless in hc I think, because all of the team kills would get you deaths. Or do they not count because it is a nuke?
Sorry for my pointless speculation. All my nukes have been in ground war.

It probably depends on whether the Nuke gets to you first or not. Another user said to avoid this happening, get to the far East (I believe), and the Nuke will hit you last. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Also, moved to its respectable area.

Save a predator missile and call it out approx. 2 seconds after the nuke countdown timer reaches zero.
You won't die, try it.

I've seen a pattern in the deaths, it seems (by my own) to go enemies, you, teammates.

that method would suit HC game modes too. (wouldn't get penalised with minus points for killing your own team)

Yeah, the kills build up towards your killstreak. From what I've experienced though, it's hard to get full kills from every enemy on the other team - everyone always drops now. >_> so annoying

Isn't the kills for the nuke added like this?

Enemy Team
Allies
You

so I'll have to assume the streak counts for the enemy kills.

It depends. Since you don't always die last, you might have a killstreak of less.

Not sure if your teammates count though, I don't think so though.
