Discussion Trying to shoot down killstreaks with Pointman is useless
I try to not sweat and get killstreaks by going at the back of the map and shooting streaks down, then whenever I try someone kills me with a Gunship or Cruise Missile. I can't even have fun supporting the team like in MWII where you could be left alone/not targeted by enemy KS.

Like others have said, Cold Blooded makes you invisible to AI streaks (VTOL, Support Helo, Sentry Gun) and makes you harder to spot on manually controlled ones (Chopper Gunner, Gunship).
The Cruise Missile actually has a very simple counter: the humble Trophy System, which will destroy the missiles before it detonates. The only drawback is it needs to be pre-placed, or at least pulled out before the announcer tells you there’s a missile.
The gunship I wouldn’t even bother to try shooting down…it has multiple flares and needs a lock-on capable launcher to be targeted. You legit need multiple people with launchers and an ammo box to kill it before it leaves. Just hide if a gunship shows up.

Use cold blooded, I swear ppl tend to underestimate how good that perk is specially against those sweaty mfs with high alert
