@mralways1 continues to barely take the lead by 3 points, with @andydabeast trailing right behind! A massive shoutout to @sushine1 for being the leader of this particular challenge, with a whopping 14 rounds - the highest out of all competitors. Keep it up friendo, and you'll be in the Top 4 for sure!

 

Challenge #3: Interstellar

Mode: Limit

Map: Moon

Type: Solo

Power: Yes

Gobblegums: N/A

Time Limit: N/A

Description: 

 

Quote

The survivors, beaten and worn out from the mission, barely scraped by. Undead lay around them, motionless. It appeared that the surge of zombies were no more...at least for now. Their comrades, however, seemed completely unfazed by it all.

 

"Damn, no sign of Richtofen still," the American, called Dempsey, muttered.

 

The samurai named Takeo graced the surface of his katana, eyes closed.

 

"Perhaps we are not destined for us to come to him, but him to us."

 

Dempsey's face contorted slightly, scowl and all. "Yeah, well I don't plan on being someone else's lunch either. We need to get a move on bef-"

 

"Uh, guys, isn't this the same thingy that the German came out of last time?"

 

All eyes were turned to what Nikolai interrupted about - a crimson red and black portal, tall enough for a person to enter, brooding in the corner of the bunker.

 

"It must still be fresh, but it won't be open for long. He couldn't have been here recently...maybe this is our ticket out?"

 

The crew and other survivors cautiously stepped into the ominous portal, uncertain of its origin and where it would lead to next.

Return to Area 51, but only temporarily, to uncover darker secrets housed within the Moon. Survivors will be granted unlimited control over their arsenal before Round 5. Once their loadout has been chosen, they cannot change any aspect about it except for ammo replenishing. Hope the choose wisely.

Rules:

  • Players must create arsenal before Round 5, and stick with it for remainder of game.
  • All weapons are accessible before Round 5.
  • Mystery Box is allowed before Round 5.
  • Pack-a-Punch is allowed before Round 5.
  • If wall-weapon is bought, ammo is allowed to be purchased even beyond Round 5.
  • Power is allowed.
  • All perks are allowed before Round 5.
  • The furthest wave reached with the limited arsenal wins.

True? - There is no restrictions in terms of using NML for any and all strategic purposes.

Anything goes before Round 5 hits - this includes any form of upgrading, perks, etc. Since it takes a whole round to be allowed to use the teleports from Moon to A51, it's VERY limited.

 

Essentially, you cannot purchase anything Round 5 and beyond besides ammo. If you risk abusing NML for points, there is a possible chance of dying still. It's the furthest wave reached, and waves technically don't exist in NML.

 

I want to see chaos ensue, since this is a very unique challenge. ?

Not being good at no man's land is hurting me in this challenge. I don't know if starting with jugg or having the points to get better weapons is better. How are others doing? 

I have had zero luck. No man's land is hard but I'm having trouble finding a decent gun to buy. My last game consisted of the m16 and the starting pistol. Even locating the mystery box is getting a bit hard it's never in a good enough location to where I can actually get a hit or two. Fun challenge though!

I use a hauppauge. I could not figure out how to get my video to windows movie maker.. I accidentally saved it into the wrong format. So I had to upload using my hauppauge capture device and it didn't give me a link for my video. I prolly should have given myself more time than 45 minutes to begin with..

I am glad we have Black Ops 1'ed ourselves out finally ;-)

I am so excited for this challenge. Especially if we can double pap I will be expecting some very high rounds.

Wish you would/could do a Bo3 Zombies month, bo2 zombies month, etc.. that way I could enter into the bo3 month of challenges. I only have a ps4 to game on and for some (no doubt) ridiculous reason, cod games older than ghost aren't playable on ps4 (even through the use of the ps now app) :-(

So April has 5 Sundays. What does the signup period look like? Starting the challenges on the 2nd or 9th?

 

I will get that up later today actually! The challenges will start the 2nd.

We will try to do that, but it depends on what kind of maps I choose/the types of challenges offered.
