  • RC-XD – 350 Score
  • Spy Plane – 450 Score
  • Honeyspot – 500 Score
  • Care Package – 550 Score
  • Counter Spy Plane – 600 Score
  • Grim Reaper – 650 Score
  • Artillery – 675 Score
  • Booby Trap – 700 Score
  • Napalm Strike – 725 Score
  • Handcannon – 750 Score
  • Hellstorm Missile – 800 Score
  • Sentry Turret – 850 Score
  • War Machine – 900 Score
  • Valkyrie Rocket – 925 Score
  • Cerberus Mk.0 – 950 Score
  • Death Machine – 1000 Score
  • Nighthawk – 1100 Score
  • Attack Chopper – 1200 Score
  • Gas Strike – 1300 Score
  • Chopper Gunner – 1450 Score
  • H.A.R.P – 1500 Score
  • Sniper’s Nest – 1750 Score
  • Air Patrol – 2000 Score
  • Nuke – 30 Kills

In the recent installments of CODs, like in the Modern Warfare titles, players had the liberty to choose between killstreaks and scorestreaks. But in the Gulf War, there’s only one way out.

Now, if you compare both perks, then naturally scorestreaks come on top of killstreaks, as you don’t have to rely only on kills to activate these streaks. In scorestreaks, you only have to worry about completing the objectives. However, game modes like Team Death Match are solely focused on getting kills rather than completing objectives. So, in modes like these, Killstreak makes more sense.

Another highly requested feature is coming back in Call of Duty: Black Ops: Gulf War

Custom reticle is coming back to Call of Duty: Black Ops Gulf War.

The Modern Warfare 3 title of 2023 removed the custom reticle feature, which is one of the most important aspects of any first-person shooter. However, the upcoming Call of Duty title is bringing back everything players have wished for. And the custom reticle is one of them. According to a leak, customs reticles will make a comeback in the Gulf War.

In the shared X post by the leaker, we can see nine different types of custom reticles that are going to be highly beneficial while shooting and aiming down the sight.

The conventional red dot, the iconic holographic sight, the plus reticle, and many other ones are available as well.

This is it from our end. We hope the leaked data from Vondy comes out to be true.
