I believe so. If this is the case, you're getting quad XP.

Yeah that only appears on certain attachments/items arbitrarily. But I guess you keep your eyes glued to the control text in the bottom right of the screen as you go over all your class items huh?

Considering the game's Create a Class UI is a carbon copy of BLOPS 2's, I fully expect it to be there, for gun camos and sights. :smugbert:

This is a good setup though? (Although if you're not using Blast Suppression I don't know what to tell you)

As far as "most efficient" setup goes right now (I hesitate to say "best"), the BAL with Stock/Grip/Silencer seems the best for try-harding. A case could be made for the parabolic mic I guess w/e

It gets me in the top 3.

This is the laser setup that's been working out for me the best. Any suggestions to make it better?

Silencer doesn't seem nearly as important in this game as in previous cods due to how fast you can move around. I found that replacing the silencer with extended mags worked out better for me, especially since it makes it significantly better at fights at range.

Play Hardcore. You still die fast but you actually kill people, too! Sometimes your own teammates but whatever man! Also play Domination because capping gets you lots of points and killing people near a controlled flag gets you lots of points, too. It's the only game mode where I actually get to use Scorestreaks.

TTK is fairly reasonable in this one. Just feels fast right now because most matches are lagged up poo poo fests where everyone cycles between one and four bars. It seems like you die instantly because by the time you see the first damage flash on your screen, the guy shooting you has already hit you 3-4 times and killed you.

Anyone have an issue where you've beaten the campaign but under mission select you're just up to like the fourth mission and can't select later missions?

This, completely. On the rare instance I find a match where everyone in the room has at least a stable 2+bar connection the TTK and everything about the game actually feels really good.

what horror the gas

I tried to join in progress on Bear and company, and it put me in a completely unrelated lobby multiple times.

Then when I played a free for all game to kill time, everyone in the game except me and one other guy was using the exact same acog sniper rifle. They were also all bad and I got a merciless off them.

Then when I finally got an invite the game locked up when we went into the match. So I bailed and played some BoI.

I can personally attest to Hardcore being a nice way to even out terrible connections, although I've gotten kicked from almost every single HC match I've ever played for accidentally TKing Ty Webb six times

I've been running it with stock, parabolic microphone, and suppressor. Works pretty well since I'm rarely far enough for the damage drop off to kick in.

Light weight, blind eye, low profile, blast suppressor, toughness, and exo mute for me.

Yeah xim4 is the only option really for the ps4 and xbone. They use a smart translator which is pretty much the mouse movement I think for specific games. Each one will have their own profile you download and use. The AW one isn't out yet but the ghost one works well enough. It's expensive, yeah, but that's going to be up to you. They do hold their value pretty well. You'll want a KVM switch if you use it at a desk with your PC. A nice gaming mouse and preferably a mechanical keyboard. It honestly feels 100% like you're on PC but I'm not some competitive counter strike player. Let me know if you have anymore questions

Dunno if you're being sarcastic but that's how it was in ghosts and it was loving awful. Every match I'd watch as teammates would flood to one of two camp friendly spots on the map and post up while I'd run around like a man. It was infuriating trying to bust through the wall of bullets once you got infected.

Nah, I'm not. I played this for days in CS and it made it close to impossible for the infected to win unless you got lucky at the beginning and made to the safe spots and ate everyone. Or, you needed a mass swarm to get those last few guys holed up in some tiny hard rear end spot, but it made it more fun. They would have to up the health on the infected a bit and such, but such quick matches kinda ruins what I found fun in the CS version. It was more of a chill everyone talk while we hang out and blast people from a hole for a few hours straight.
