Intro

The map carbon is a fairly simple map to play survival mode on by yourself or with friends. This guide will teach even a very basic beginner how to get to at least level 30+ with little effort. This map is obviously easier if two people are playing but you can do it alone.

Right below is a link to my other hub teaching the basics and going over which weapons should be used in survival mode, and the strategies that can be applied to ALL the maps.


The strategy for two

Ok guys, so the strategy is fairly simple on this map. And that is camp, and let the enemy come to you. Please look at the photo below as i will reference it A LOT throughout this guide, and will reference those x's a lot.

Ok, so for the first 5 or so rounds, just run around, have fun, build up money, and get ready for the later rounds. There is no need for you to initially start the game off by camping, as this will drag out the first few levels. Also note that whoever is going to play the part of the RED X must have a LMG. It is suggested that person should have 2 LMG's, but one will be enough for the first few camping rounds. The BLUE X can use any weapon, but it is still suggested that the BLUE X uses a LMG as well. (once again please pay attention to the X's at the bottom to realize who I am referring to).

So now lets jump ahead to say round 10. You and your friend should both have at least 1 LMG, and you should be ready to start camping. Please note how far the kill streaks are from your area, so save this for last guy each round, or hustle as soon as a round is over. I do suggest having a riot shield team from each player to assist you in killing.

So now lets jump to the actually game style. The RED X will have most of the action, and Each person can take turns going to the RED X position. What you want to do is lay prone, and look up the staircase in the building directly ahead of you. At the beginning of each round all of the enemy players will come through the doorway and try to run down the stairs. Your main goal is to just shoot them as they come down.

The BLUE X's job is a little different. You are going to be watching everything that is not at the doorway where the RED X is. Every once in a while a couple enemy players will run around, or a different route, so your goal is to help your buddy who is watching the staircase and take them out. Luckily you will also have the help of the riot shield team as they will stay outside, and i think one of the best plans as well is facing turrets in various directions( you will see which direction best fits you depending where the enemy will leak through).

When the juggernaut rounds come....... This is a little trickier. In the area behind where the BLUE X is, should be the grenade box, and where you should hide on helicopter rounds, or juggernaut rounds. Now remember this map is a llittle trickier than the easiest rounds, so you WILL go down at some point. It is almost impossible to be perfect and not go down at some point on this map. This is why the area where you are camping is another good area. Because you can easily get another self revive after you go down. Also you will be able to continue replenishing flash grenades, grenades, claymores, and c-4 for the juggernaut.

Following this strategy is fairly simple, and although it may have gotten confusing with the "BLUE X", and "RED X", once your in a game you will understand fully how to do this strategy which can be very simple. This strategy can also be a lot harder is you make it that way.

Things to remember. Try not to put any sentries looking at the staircase/doorway as the person watching it. This will either hurt your teammate or just be a waste. You want to make both your lives easier so that you can get as far as possible so just try placements of this to make your own life easy.

The strategy for 1.

This is obviously going to be tougher for a person trying to get to high levels especially using my strategy above. My strategy above works best with 2, but you can still try it with 1. Just remember to plant all sentries facing outward away from you, and to have a riot squad, and you should not have a problem using this strategy for the first 20 rounds. After that you will start to face problems and this is when i suggest you either move to another area, like maybe the grenade room. The grenade box room will allow you to pick up the lethal assists, like grenades C-4 etc. and also allow you to get self revive if you do go down. At high levels i do not suggest camping to far away from the grenade box, in case you do go down.

So there you have it. A basic guide that will get you through the level carbon on survival mode. If you have any comments or questions please feel free to ask. Also I would like to add, that this guide has worked for me, and my friends, but will not work for everybody as everyone plays differently...

What about goong on top of the containers cause surely your method will eventually go wrong when you can hold them all of??? :/

I have tried the whole cmaping on top of things on survival but the problem with this is that you typically get picked off, now if you mean the crates at the top o the map that might work, but from my experience being near the grenade box makes life easy in case you need a fast self revive in the middle of a round

I assume you mean armored troops, they simply are like weak juggernauts, you can kill them but they are much stronger than your average person.

Works EXTREMELY well as long as blue guy has at least a slight bit of skill and can shoot people as they walk in a doorway and file down stairs.

In response to Codfather: you'll just be picked off by choppers if you don't pay attention while camping on stuff...

It sure did help. Round 27 solo on my first try. I think you should become a published guide author

Haha well.. Technically i am on here, where i do monetize this site.. But who knows. I personally have about 25 guides in the making, but haven't found the initiative to really put in the effort.. Thats my biggest problem with writing.

Hey John, So you're an author of a guide/s ? Cool, I'm curious what your take is on all the hacks and cheats that are being used in MW3. I've actually lessoned the time I play on this game because of all the hacking going on. Any thoughts ?

Well to be honest, when people tell me that they have better strategies that involve hacks, i disregard them. I am 100% against all hacks, and cheats, and feel that they ruin the game. I am also very glad that they seem to patch glitches fairly well.
