Hardcore is the only way I've ever played CoD games, I miss CoD4's HC headquarters. There were some epic gunfights trying to cap the HQ. Also some hilarious team killing if someone on your team is capping it but people on your team keep tossing frags in there anyway. I think maybe one of the BLOPs games had HC HQ? Or maybe I'm imagining things and CoD4 is the only one with HC HQ. HC Domination is a good substitute though. It's tough to get good scorestreaks though because you have no minimap and when someone does toss up a UAV a lot of people have coldblooded and suppressors so it doesn't help much anyway. So what happens is you never have any idea where the other team is, especially with spawn flipping. Still a lot of fun though. It is however irritating when you get people on your team that play it like TDM. One game I was the only person that bothered to try to cap anything and we lost despite everyone of us having a positive K/DR. At the end of the match everyone else on my team had 2 caps, one each for getting the one you spawn next to. The other team all had like 4-9 caps despite getting absolutely butchered.

Obviously the graphics aren't as crisp as the xbone/ps4 version but that's to be expected. I've played it all day and I can honestly say that it's a solid port. Only issue I've seen is being booted off xbox live if you leave a really laggy lobby.

I've seen this game compared to Arena shooters which I love, as well as people saying it plays more or less the same as other CoD games but has a bit more verticality. Now that people have been playing a bit longer is there more of a verdict? I don't hate CoD games but am not a big fan of them, however I do like arcadey Arena shooters a whole lot (and there really aren't any on consoles) so I am not sure whether I should pick this up or not.

It's COD through and through, with much more jumping and air boosting/dodging and much less placed explosives.

Alright so I think the campaign customization unlocks you get from full upgrading any of the parts of your exo like health, weapon reloads, battery, etc. I think the campaign exo is from fully upgrading your battery.

There are basically 2 ways to play: 1 is to use an assault rifle or a sniper rifle and play cod. You stand around in cover and wait for people to walk into your crosshairs just like you always do. Or you can use the submachine guns (including the honorary smg bal-27) and shotguns with which you actually play advanced warfare, spamming double jumps and air dodges endlessly, even in combat. As someone who loves Quake and likes CoD I'm definitely having a ton of fun just jumping over people and shooting them while they helplessly try to turn 180 degrees and aim at me in time.

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

How do I make this game fun? Also do the latency meters always just fluctuate between full bars and one bar for every player every game or is it possible to have a solid connected lobby? I mean yeah I get it CoD games are always terrible or whatever but in every lobby I'm in everyone in the lobby is constantly fluctuating.

It's not just you, something is horribly broken with the network. Try playing in the Hardcore playlist, it softens the awful latency since you just need 1 shot to kill someone anyways.

WHERE THE gently caress IS GUN GAME? Advanced warfare takes the Pick 10 system but doesn't bother taking the most popular mode? How the hell have party game modes (in their own playlist or whatever) not become a standard part of the call of duty package?

^ "should" be patched real soon what are you guys holding over through a prestige? i quite like the mk14 and AMR9. MK14 seems like it'd be a great sniper rifle. Maybe pair it with an ACOG? And AMR9 would be great with laser sight, I think Anyone running either of those guns and what builds?

Shiiiiit Christoff, I have so many PSN friends at this point that I don't know who most of them are, so I think I was just ignoring the invites you were sending me earlier. My bad!  I'm taking a break for now, but I'd love to play with you later.I got this on PS4 from GameFly today. Started playing late this afternoon and I'm already at level 24  It's a lot of fun, though. So far it's pretty much BlOps 2 (my favorite CoD) with double jumping, no Skrillex, exo powers and some other poo poo. I've been playing Ground War exclusively so far and it owns.

I'm really looking the laser semi auto heavy weapon. Playing on my PS4 with a XiM4 giving me some awesome games. I'm actually slightly glad the only thing I have to contend with on console are little kids, other Xim4 users and people who want to leave their mics open. I got real tired of hackers in COD on PC. Especially with the removal of dedicated servers. Sucks there is no way to kick someone from a game. My current build is the heavy gun, with the door while sprinting/sliding perk. It works well in Detroit (Denver?). Though I really hate all these small maps. I want some MW1 giant maps. SlayVus fucked around with this message at 08:57 on Nov 8, 2014 |

I feel like they're still trying to fix issues from MW 1/2 without realizing that a lot of the "fixes" are no longer relevant to what the game is. Mostly overpowered killstreaks are half the fun but now they are usually pathetically weak. Black Ops SAM and trophy addressed them and stealth perks are more abundant now there are less good combat perks. Grenades are almost useless, I don't exactly miss them but don't really know why they are in. Weapons feel balanced but half of them don't keep up with the new pace. Using a burst rifle, sniper or heavy weapon is gimping yourself unless you are really good with that kind of weapon. ARs, SMGs and shotguns might all be on a fairly level playing field but before secondaries, melee, heavy and the slower firing weapons had way more viable roles. Don't get their refusal to go with the BO style choose what you want unlock system. Linear unlocks feel out of date and pointless. Which idiot put stuff on double, triple kills with such a tiny time window when there is so much mobility people never bunch up? Ditto for longshots for camo in maps with medium range at best sight lines.

Bwhahaha. Nothing amuses me quite as much as the campaign hyping up the new abilities - only for the majority of the levels to strip them away. I just started the Thailand level and literally 3/4 of the levels have had double jump disabled. Oh, Call of Duty, never change.

Lett me double jump and slide round corners, campaign, or get out.

Holy poo poo, the EM1 Laser with Gung-Ho (shoot while boosting) and a shield on your back for extra protection turns the game into Quake with a railgun. My most enjoyable CoD experience in multiplay so far, and it's even my first one on PC. I need to record a session and show the world, it's bonkers.

Am I missing something in the campaign? I can't loving jump back onto the bus after you rip the dude out of the truck and throw him into a post. I've literally tried this 10 times, tried pressing Space at numerous different points during the sequence and I still just fall to my death. Can dodge the truck no loving problem both times.
