Call of Duty: World at War Prestige Levels and Metals
As you play Call of Duty: World at War multiplayer you will gain experience points(XP). Every time you get a kill in deathmatch, or play the bomb in search and destroy you will aquire more XP and level up. Once you get to level 65, you will have an option prestige, which means you will loose all your guns and start over again from level one. Each time you prestige you will get a different medal, but your leaderboards stats still stay. Check out these medals:


hey i noticed a problem on your guide my friends if you go in to the game ant look at the {Type 99} Japenese light machien gun you will see that it tells you:

You have to be the host of the match to activate the death cards and you go into settings options or game settings (im not to sure) then death cards enable them and then just choose which ones you want

call of duty black ops
you roten eggerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
i really like how simple this game was. there was nothing really complex about it. a perk does what it did. no leveling up for it no switching game modes to level it up. gun setup rules are the same for every gun unlike black ops which has some attachment limits and rules. there is a detailed comparison on http://www.blog4modernwarfare3.com/ on each of the games perks. it goes into detail of why you would need each also how it makes it more and less fair. its hard to keep adding more and more making it fair but each game is some what more fair.
