Doing Shipment map for XP and challenges

[EL34xyz]

I know Shipment is in multi player, but this relates to Warzone also.
I do the Shipment map quite a bit to get weapons leveled up for Warzone and to satisfy challenges.
It's difficult to get into the Shipment map sometimes because the server keeps trying to throw me into the Shoot House map.
It can takes 10 or more tries before I get the Shipment map.
If I am running a double XP bonus, it waste a bunch of my clock time trying to get into Shipment.
Anyone have any tips I am missing on getting into the Shipment map faster?

Shoothouse is another good map for leveling up weapons, it's worth playing that map too, Rust is another good map for this as well.

Yes, Shoot house is ok, but Shipment has way more action
I get 3 to 4 times the kills on Shipment which levels up the weapons faster

I forgot to mention this about Shoot House

I had a guy on Shoot House get pissed because I was not doing what he wanted me to do.
I forget which game mode it was, but he told me to go play Team death match if I was not going to participate.

On Shipment, just about everyone is there to unlock or upgrade gear.
So it's a frag fest for most players

I don't want to piss off other players, so Shipment works out way better for me to level up gear and not piss off other players

First of all there is nothing you can do get shipment quicker it’s just the luck of the drawer. I’ve managed to get 43 kills on shoothouse recently, l was very surprised and well proud of myself, it’s definitely worth trying a bit more if that’s all that pops up after about 4 tries of not getting shipment!
If someone was pissed at you for not playing properly and they were sure it was you, then l’m guessing you were playing kill confirmed, make sure you collect tags as you kill or if you see any laying around. If it was grind take them to the two different points which banks your tags.

Yes, I agree with @Wiseowl the time you waste leaving a lobby to join a queue hoping that you might get Shipment next time round is time you could spend playing and earning XP.

People that complain about what others from their squad are doing wrong only ever do it when they're losing. Play the game, try to pay the objectives, have fun and (just for @Wiseowl) don't forget the popcorn.

It’s very annoying tho if people don’t stick to objectives! The popcorn thing I’m sure it was you a while ago who could feel a storm coming and you said you’ll be getting the popcorn out! Lol! Why especially for me?

Why you, because no-one else would remember.

I would think that people should play the other game modes if they want to play as organized teams.

Shipment map is just a mass of insane gun fire and Kill streaks for the most part
It's hard to carry out some of the other game modes on shipment

That's what we like about it.

It is harder, but not impossible, the objectives are still the same just with an added factor, CHAOS.

It's the craziness that makes it either so much fun or so frustrating.

I am addicted to the super frantic pace in Shipment
It reminds me of the Free For Alls I played in Quake 3 many years ago
Rockets, Rail guns coming at you from all angles

Now, if I go back and play Warzone, it feels so slow.

Spawning right in the middle of the other team on Shipment is so much fun
That's about my only gripe about that map
The spawns are just crazy sometimes

I remembered cos you made me laugh, just like l remember you have gone back to your old avatar, Carlos asked for new ones didn’t he?

I was talking about making sure to do objectives at shoothouse or anywhere else. Shipment is hard to concentrate on, just about everybody is forgiven there!

This sounds like a great idea on paper, but then I finish Shoot House and still have a hard time getting into shipment. So it just repeats again
I find it's best to just keep trying until I get into Shipment.

I am unlocking the Blue Dot sight and got about half way there last night doing shipment

There are only 2 maps in this game mode, in theory if you played enough matches you should get a 50/50 mix of Shipment and Shoot House, but the servers toss a coin at the end of each round, so there's no guarantee that you will get shipment after shoothouse. I have had sessions where I played about 4-5 in a row and they were all on the same map but I usually get a good mix if I play about 5 or 6 rounds at a time.

Every kill is levelling up your weapon xp and every objective capped is helping get you closer to that level 155, if you're not there already.

 

[EL34xyz]

I am already at level 155 from playing shipment
I am leveling up weapons and doing challenges on Shipment
I am currently working on getting the blue dot reticle which is a pretty large task

I am on step #8 currently

1) Get 200 kills with the Holo Corporate Combat Scope
2) Get 50 headshots with the Holo Corporate Combat Scope.
3) Get 200 kills with the APX5 Holo Scope.
4) Get 50 headshots with the APX5 Holo sight.
5) Get 200 kills with the PBX Holo 7 sight.
6) Get 50 headshots with the Holo 7 Sight PBX.
7) Get 200 kills with any Holo Sight.
8) Get 50 headshots with any Holo Sight.
9) Get 3 kills without dying 150 times with any Holo Sight.

I have found that Shipment is not a good map to get headshots, the action is just 2 frantic, it is actually better to find a map with a slower pace where you have a bit more time to line up shots.

I've also found it's better to aim at chest level and let the vertical recoil climb help you get t that headshot.

Maybe you are thinking that a sniper rifle would be difficult?

I have not had any problems getting head shots on Shipment

I am using a FINN with an Adverse barrel and a Kilo
Both have drum magazines with 100 or more rounds
I have the recoil dialed in on both guns so there is very little vertical kick

I am slinging tons of lead with those two guns
Getting head shots just means I have to pay attention and make sure I aim higher than mid torso

It's good practice for me learning how to aim more carefully in order to get head shots

 

[Wiseowl]

I have completed reflex, l have 58/150 3 kills without dying then l have the blue dot for holo, on my forth reticle for thermal, and now I’m working on my fifth acog reticle. Which is weird cos now since l have played Cold War l actually love using the vlk. I don’t think you get the vlk at Cold War but yeah now l love it!

 

[EL34xyz]

I have completed all 8 steps shown below
I am on #9 right now

The last step is a big grind for sure

2) Get 50 headshots with the Holo Corporate Combat Scope.
3) Get 200 kills with the APX5 Holo Scope.
4) Get 50 headshots with the APX5 Holo sight.
5) Get 200 kills with the PBX Holo 7 sight.
6) Get 50 headshots with the Holo 7 Sight PBX.

Yeah step 9 is quite a grind for sure, l got a bit bored of it but I’ll work on it again sometime, once l feel like a change again. Have you managed to complete any other reticle yet?

 

[EL34xyz]

Yes, I have all the other reticles except the last blue dot
That's what challenges 1 through 8 are
You have to do each one in order don't you?
