Oh, I didn't know that. Not that I'll use it now because I disabled my killstreaks anyway...

Do use the ai controllable turret customization, it sucks.

My god is the remote turret a loving awesome killstreak though.

No. Even if CoD requires it, the PS4 has a system level feature where as long as the primary account of a PS4 has Plus any accounts currently logged in to it are considered to have Plus.

I'm getting pretty consistent high ping on ps4, or at best really unstable. I don't know how all that tech poo poo works but could that be part of the reason I am often seeing graphical hiccups like people or myself rubber banding, teleporting or jitteriing slightly around? It's really unpleasant and distracting to play with.

I am on wifi (can't run cables to console here) and no other multiplayer games seem to experience this. Weird.

It really should but if they announced having dedicated servers, and then didn't launch with dedicated servers, they probably won't even add them.

Also: PC players! If you're still looking for an invite, add me on steam and I will get back to you as soon as I can and get you in.

just played an hour or so of AW - ecstatic they brought back support scorestreaks that don't reset after death. That missing feature in BLOPS2 turned me off the series.

Only complaint is that Gun Game is apparently MIA. I thought I read it would be here, but so far no dice. :(

jeff gerstmann hates fun
So yeah, don't buy this poo poo on PC aside, all I have is a 360 that literally will not open it's disk drive and my sweet rear end gaming rig, so the choice was clear.

The port! Oh man, at first everything was so swell, it looked great, once I got the silly shadow caching fixed (you should probably put in warnings on options that require 6gb of VRAM, guys, just as a heads up).

I was getting some nonsense with alt-tabbing, I figured it was due to my dual monitor setup, I've had a handful of games give me guff and not want to display properly, but usually doing a couple of alt-tabs fixed it eventually. COD:AW was steadfast in it's resilience, it would simply never bring back it's video after alt tabbing. ever. So I thought, hell, let's throw it in borderless windowed mode. It was great! I could alt tab back and forth forever! Then I tried to play a game and it immediately gave me a driver CTD with a DirectX error. Cool. Reverted changes. Same CTD. Safe mode. CTD. Driver rollback on a clean install: Won't even boot.

gently caress.

edit: GTX 970 4gb on the card, in case anyone is encountering similar issues.

Well I think all cod games should have dedicated servers. Problem is activision will never shell out for them.

They dont have to, as long as they release the code for there to be clan or what ever run servers. That would also help with hackers.

So is there a way to tell of I'm loving up because lag or because I'm just hot garbage at this? I lose a lot of gun fights I feel I should of won because I'll get a ton of hit markers, but the death cam shows me whiffing shots and only hitting twice. My ping goes from 4 to 1 back and forth throughout the match. Usually sticking near 4 though.

Or should I just ignore death cam and not care?

A lot of people are having this exact same issue. I found intentionally gimping my internet connection but putting my console on wireless and downloading/uploading torrents at the same time helped a great deal. I play much better on a 1 bar connection. It's hosed.

Don't worry: I've got the moon covered...
I'm pleasantly surprised how natural boost dodging has become. I stopped impulsively double jumping all over the place like everyone was on the first night, and dodging has become fluid and instinctive. Strafe-boosting through doors to schoot a man you know is waiting for you is really satisfying.

I didn't play much Titanfall, so it's new and fun to me.

Try playing on the ps4, the boost and the movement button are on the same joystick. Moving and boosting forward is easy, side to side not so much.

I've only read one threat so far, it was from a kid with a lisp who claimed I was "probably a loving squeaker" because he shot at me, I spun around and TKed him before I saw the name tag.

He threatened to hack my IP anmd find my house and kick my rear end, then ragequit when I told him "stay in school - those speech classes will probably help you a lot."

Yes lots of people are experiencing this. What is your NAT type in the main menu? Does it say "strict", "moderate", or "open"?

Well, I finished the SP. And wow. They turned Kevin Spacey into ACTUAL HITLER, with concentration camps to boot and yet the media aren't making GBS threads their pants over it. Batshit insanity aside, that ending was rushed as hell, but then again, I haven't listened to all the intel yet, so it might detail why Irons flipped his poo poo in such a big way. I'm not spoilering that, because if you didn't see that coming a mile away, you should probably never read a pop-up book because your heart won't be able to take the shock.

I know CoD is hardly theatre, but it really did get dark pretty loving quick. :psyduck:

Just wish it had the custom loadouts like in BO2 so you could mess around a bit more.
