Rapid Kill Medals are awarded for killing multiple enemies in a certain timeframe. Unlike previous games, the timeframe to achieve these kills is much larger, and each kill extends the time to achieve the next. As with the Killstreak Medals, scorestreak kills do not contribute to this. Even if the player were to manage continuing their streak soon enough, dying ends the timeframe. Rapid kills contributes, as well, for unlocking titles.
