How to get higher prestige in black ops 2?

Answer 1

Bottom line is that objective based game modes will give you more XP, hands down, though your overall K/D might suffer if you're playing the objective. Some wimps who can't play a straight-up TDM match and win will camp objective plays, but if you know how to beat them it's not that much of an issue. It's personal preference; some people prefer to inflate their K/D stats because it gives them an artificial woody like enhancement pills, but personally I prefer winning and kicking a$$. If my K/D suffers a bit, so be it.

Double XP weekends are run by Treyarch usually at the end of every month, so keep an eye out for them, as you can usually move up at least one or two Prestige's if you're good enough and can handle playing for long hours.

Challenges - check all the Challenges in your Barracks, as they'll give the goals you need to set to get good XP rewards.

Scorestreaks - setting up your scorestreaks properly will get you maximum return for your efforts, particularly in objective based modes. Treyarch has changed the game specifically to try and get players away from camping and just TDM, which is why objectives have much higher point values.

Classes - getting the right class setup takes time, and there are those who would work on getting camo's and other crap with weapon challenges. A lot of my clan members did that, and as a result I ranked up faster than them because I could care less. Go with what setup works for you, and kick a$$.

If you're not already signed up on Elite, do so and then watch some of the strategy videos on leveling up on EliteTV. They've got some pretty good tips for noobs.
