Alright, buckle up, ’cause I’m gonna walk you through my little experiment on how to take down scorestreaks in a game using the HE-1. It wasn’t exactly smooth sailing, but hey, that’s why it’s a story, right?
So, first things first, I grabbed the HE-1. Seemed like a cool challenge, ditching the usual launchers for something a little more…unconventional. My initial thought was, “This’ll be a piece of cake!” Oh, how wrong I was.
Round 1: The Naive Approach
- I jumped into a match, all gung-ho, and a UAV popped up almost immediately. Sweet! I lined up a shot, fired…and nothing. The UAV kept on buzzin’. Okay, maybe I missed? Tried again. Nope. Nada. Zip. It was like I was throwing pebbles at a tank.
- Then came the Counter UAV. Figured, “Hey, smaller target, maybe this’ll work.” Nope. Still invincible. I was startin’ to think the HE-1 was just a fancy paperweight.
Round 2: Research Time!
I bit the bullet and did some digging online. Turns out, the HE-1 isn’t exactly known for its anti-scorestreak prowess. Most people were saying it’s useless. But I’m stubborn, so I kept digging.
Round 3: The Angle Matters (Apparently)
- One obscure forum post mentioned something about hitting weak points on certain scorestreaks. I loaded up a custom match with a buddy, spawned in a Sentry Gun. We spent a good 20 minutes trying to figure out where the ‘weak spot’ was.
- Eventually, we found that hitting the actual gun part of the Sentry Gun seemed to do slightly more damage. Emphasis on slightly. It still took a whole mag to bring it down, and my buddy could just repair it faster than I could damage it. Fail.
Round 4: Persistence Pays Off (Sort Of)
- Frustrated, I went back to public matches. A VTOL showed up, and just for kicks, I started shooting at it. I wasn’t expecting much, but I noticed something: hitting the engines seemed to do a tiny bit of damage.
- I focused all my fire on one engine. It took FOREVER, and I got shot down like five times, but eventually, I saw the VTOL start smoking. Then, finally, glorious explosion!
- It felt like I’d climbed Mount Everest. But then I realized…it took my entire magazine and I died five times. Not exactly efficient.
Round 5: The Conclusion (HE-1 vs. Scorestreaks = Pain)
So, the final verdict? Can you take down scorestreaks with the HE-1? Technically, yes. Should you? Absolutely not. It’s slow, inefficient, and you’re gonna get yourself killed a lot. Use a launcher. Seriously.
But hey, at least I can say I did it. And now you know not to waste your time trying it yourself. You’re welcome!
