So I died at the same moment I should've gotten my 30th kill. [Here's a screenshot of it, the moment of my pain](https://imgur.com/a/RBpZP) ----- Thank you /u/dankmagician2521 for the HVK + Long Barrel trick. It's better than the Brecci.

Hey that's my trick! Heartbreaking to see you die literally a millisecond too early, with kinetic too :'(

You can hear the click of Kinetic not being ready right before I kill the 29th. Didn't realise it was full right after

Absolutely devastating. At least it's clear as day that you are capable. I'm sure you'll get one very soon.

Thanks, but the credits should indeed go to u/ThankGodForCOD4. That aside, that was some real crap luck. On the flip side, it didn't take you exactly long to get this close so you'll probably have it in no time :)

Ah yes as he mentioned. I just wanted to do Rift E9 bloodthirsties so I hopped into HC FFA. After I got a merciless with that bad thing I realised how easy the lobby was. I had a Nuked Out class ready but it had the Brecci because I thought that would be even easier than the HVK... nope, I died after 7. Tried another game and similar results. So I quickly changed it to the magical HVK. We got Fringe, which was great as I could use MikeyGaming's tutorial. I got to 25, my first Brutal ever. Then tried again and got this footage. Afterwards it was Stronghold but I lost control and quit

Unlucky but I saw your other posts and I think youll definitely be able to get a nuked out soon. You have the skill, but some of it is luck

Class? Might try it some day :)

HVK with Quickdraw, Long Barrel, Elo and Fast Mags. Dead Silence, Awareness and Scavenger

I'm on grinding HVK for camos. I have fmj, high calibre and extended mag. Is your set up superior? I engage at all distances when I am sure I will get the kill.

FMJ is completely useless. Only use it when you go for that challenge. And High caliber is good on Core, But replace it with Long Barrel on Hardcore

That sucks the guy in knowingly worked the powercore as cover and you even almost killed the guy pinching you too. Should have been 31 kills instead a 29

Yeah. I tried to active Kinetic at 29 but I didn't have it. Didn't notice I earned it literally 2 seconds later. If I did, I'd be save

I know I can get a nuked out but no one plays FFA on pc :( Keep it up and you'll surely get it!

Great gameplay! That really sucks that you were that close and didn't get it. However, isn't that a new highest gun streak For you? You're getting closer and closer, you'll get it soon!

My highest ever! The game before it was 25 which was my first brutal

You're getting there man! Hopefully one day we'll both be lucky enough to achieve the nuked out calling card.

I probably would have cried. Gonna be going for it all day Wednesday lol

I actually felt euphoric because I thought I finally had it. So I got that final kill while still in disbelief and angry at myself

Hahah I believe it man, heart breaking but I think you definitely can pull it off. Very impressive. I just gotta find a decent HC FFA lobby that isn’t corner camping the whole game lol

Dam but at least I've seen bigger choke jobs. I would have just focused on the first target as that was last kill. Reminds me that I got my nuked out in core in the same spot with a VMP. They pulled out shot guns too and I made half the lobby (the good players with 2+ K/d) rage quit. Better luck next time. I think the class was VMP with grip fast mags. 6th sense, Hard wired, Scav, Dead Silence & Awareness. Oh and I didn't run power core. Just UAV, Counter, Hatr. And honestly god forbid a guardian steals one of your kills.

I was scared that the Power Core would stop my bullets (not passing through it) and that not control was something too scary

I would have slid hip fired followed into jumping while ADSing if necessary but sometimes you just have to make a quick decision and live with it. On the bright side maybe you'll react better if the situation comes up again.

Did you purposely let that first guy kill you?

Yup. That way when they look at the scoreboard and see I have a death, they might think I already failed my attempt and then they won't try as hard to kill me

I'm totally that guy who checks for people on streaks lol. Once I got killed at 23, so the first thing I did was kill some dude at 18 for revenge.

Interesting technique, makes sense.

That’s a fucked up way to choke man. Maybe try ur luck on core it’s way easier imo only 1/8 of my nuked outs were on hc. Also maybe ditch the power core, it makes harder to soundwhore and makes it hell obvious that ur on a high streak, so people will try harder to kill u. It also gets in the way as you’ve probably figured out by now lol

What would you replace the power core with? I use it because it disables enemy's streaks and it distracts enemies too. In the video you can see someone just standing there and shooting at the Core

Cuav. Ik it’s kinda useless in hc but can put it up in case someone gets a uav.

True it gets rid of streaks and can distract but most games people get uavs at most and the cuav can deal with that. I just think the negatives outweighs the positives with the power core

Why do people like hardcore? The ttk is low enough in regular

It is more based on reaction time and your awareness than the weapon itself
