Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 | EMP vs Tactical Nuke

This is just video footage confirming that the EMP does NOT destroy a nuke.

Wow, I was always under the impression that it would stop the Nuke dead in it's tracks...

[clibboy]

i had this questio after 12 years lmao ur a legend bro

[Arror]

you can stop a nuke by using an emp before the nuke is called in

[theinfedel]

well folks a emp is what is discharged as a byproduct of a nuke in real life

[achillesbaby]

If you call in an EMP, the enemy can't use the nuke until the EMP is done. This is why people think EMP's destroys nukes

[spazzsquirrel]

Yea in real life it would also NOT destroy the nuke mainly because a standard A-bomb or any type of nuke has a special lining on the outside which prevents any electronical disturbances such as EMP's and the nuke makes it's own EMP from that anyway.

@nicholaskilborn no it will say this killstreak is unavailable during an EMP so u can delay the guy from using it and potentially stop him from using the nuke at all during the game if u get enough kills 2 end the game while the EMP is in effect but no a nuke cannot b deployed while an EMP is in effect

[irshyusuf]

the idea is to see the scoreboard and call in the emps pronto at a nuke owner, and by the way, the idea is to cut out the plane that drops the nukes diagnostics, so it would abort, your killstreaks wont call in while an emp is inbound against you

[TDJP]

depends on your average killstreak

the nuke is 10 kills more so if you always get around 20 killstraks go with the nuke

around 15 go with the EMP

[kody]

@Samhdrums no, me personally have never used the EMP and probably will never use it unless for challenges, but yeah, that thing sucks. shoulda put something better in that slot

[deathofaduck]

the EMP destroys a nuke when somebody has got a nuke but hasn't used it yet.

[kolguy]

@Mrillsnipeyou99 no that just stops the nuke from being called in

[GuitarMasterGraeme]

EMP stands for electro magnetic pulse... it wipes out ANYTHING that is electronic so yeah it would also affect heatbeat sensors but the reason it WONT WORK against a nuke is because the bomb has already been fired at a target that timer is how long it hits the surface so yeah.... that was kinda logical for me...

[Drakkar]

Well, I don't think it wouldn't work anyways because a T.N is generally fired from an artillery tank so it would already be airborne once an EMP is fired. The device would be short circuited in air, but the impact when it finally hits the ground would more than likely set it off anyways.

[Chaldeanlife]

technically when a nuke gets set off some guy yells "enemy nuke its all over." so yea you can take it from there.

[TrappHD]

what if you call in the emp first? i know the odds of doing that in-game are slim to none but still, it says killstreaks are unavailable during EMP

[bigbird]

The only thing to stop a nuke is the game ending before you call it in or if you're like me and try to keep your streak going and someone else gets one and calls it in. That happened to me. It sucked so bad.

[NZerProductions]

@BryanMaddocks Well maybe not the emp canceling maybe they should make a perk that does so it would make it fair.

[creamoiss]

Do you notice that the EMP unleash a explotion in the air

[fukwango]

no if you call the emp in before the nuke it only stops someone from calling it in which basicly means is postponed the guy from calling it in and whats the chances of getting emp'd near the last few 20 seconds of a game when you get a nuke
