Unsatisfied with getting14,000 kills as Nikki Minaj over a 76-hour grindto bag the alleged world-first Interstellar weapon camo,Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3streamerReidboyyupped the ante to 195 sweaty hours to dual-wield the elusive Borealis camo.

For the CoD initiates out there, Interstellar is essentially the be-all, end-all camo for multiplayer achievements, while Borealis is the pinnacle of Zombies camos. To get them, you have to max out every single weapon in the game, excluding weapons carried over from Modern Warfare 2. That’s ‘just’ base weapons, of course, meaning weapons released in the future won’t add to this already daunting camo grind.

Interstellar requires unlocking Priceless on all weapons, while Borealis requires Serpentine on all weapons. It’s essentially a Zombies mode daisy-chain of camo unlocks: Golden Enigma, then Zircon, then Serpentine, and finally total game-wide weapon mastery for Borealis. (Here are some more detailed tips for how tounlock the Interstellar Camo in Modern Warfare 3for yourself.)

In his climactic Zombies match, Reidboyy lands 1,691 Zombies kills to rack up a mountain of XP and polish off the unlocks. Naturally, he immediately rushes to the gun range to appreciate Borealis in all its glory. The camo gives weapons a fittingly starry, neon look, which Reidboyy reckons “looks better in-game” compared to its preview texture, and “might be better than Interstellar.”

Astonishingly, Reidboyy isn’t done. He’s still live at the time of writing, albeit with another sleep break with background footage, and his next goal is “the race to be the first person in the whole wide world to have every single master camo in both multiplayer and Zombies.” Godspeed, gamer, and please drink some water, get more than four hours of sleep, and take two showers for good measure.
