Heh how many patches are they going to release that address "connectivity issues." I guess enough to keep our hopes up until next November so the cycle can repeat itself

Nah I mean every patch they release for every COD always has some bit about fixing netcode lag or spawns w/e but never actually does

Welp, spent two hours making an emblem that poofed after I prestiged. Wish I had read about that before I did it.

What do weapon stats do? I dunno. But an (obnoxious) guy on YouTube went and tested a bunch of weapons (in an informal setting) to see what those little mods do. His video is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCUdAjFpk1g It's super annoying to watch a 10 minute video for 30 seconds of explanation, so the tl;dr by me is: Damage Damage adds damage to the weapon at both the minimum and maximum. This guy seems to think -1 shot to kill at longer ranges. He also seems to think that it'll actually affect the range falloffs as well. Range Range changes where the damage falloffs occur - this is supposedly a very subtle difference per point (around a meter per point). Accuracy Accuracy changes the recoil - he figures that a point will give "about 1/4 of the foregrip mod". Fire Rate This seems to be a 15-20% increase per point in rate of fire for the weapon. It curves off - 2 points seems to add about 30%. Note that an increased fire rate means more recoil just because of more kicks. Handling A weird one, this one ONLY seems to affect your HIP FIRE SPREAD. This guy says it didn't affect ADS time, swap time, sprint warmup/cooldown times, or flinch. It's apparently fairly minor as well. Mobility Nothing? Not reload, run speed, sprint speed, warmups/cooldowns, boost or jumps, boost times, knee slides, strafe speeds, ADS times (or incredibly minor), weapon swap times. More testing needed, I guess. So, what's important? Fire Rate, Damage, Accuracy, probably in that order. Please note that this poo poo isn't mine, I just wanted to transcribe this video briefly as it's the closest thing to useful info we've got so far about weapon stats.

People bragging about doing well using the XIM on consoles is like non-tards bragging about doing well in the special olympics. Anyway, is there any way to make the recon drone do damage?

Does scavenger reload tube grenades? For my last game of the night I went exo sprint, faster movment, and a bulldog with a built-in grip and threw a shield on my back. I got like 7 rage mics of people just going "aauughh  ". As soon as you round the corner just loving mash the trigger as fast as you can. Stavanger helps assuming you somehow don't die every 20 seconds.

Did you guys know the stinger will lock on people? Oh, you did? Why didn't you tell me? I got a professional launcher and an elite launcher and I guess it just has special camo but nothing else? I want borderlands style bouncing rockets come on, son.

For whatever reason, having a download going or streaming Netflix while I play keeps me from being hosed by the net code while I'm stuck half a second behind everyone else. Maybe it thinks I'm a poor and gives me some of that sweet sweet compensation.

The Beer and Pretzels XMG is the stupidest, goofiest weapon. If you like pretending you're a giant robot with guns for hands, stomp around with that on; you'll probably die a lot, but who cares? You're a giant robot with akimbo LMGs now!

The Killcam has existed since Call of Duty's inception. It doesn't change anything. People still hide in corners and behind barrels and windows, and lie down covering sniping lanes.

Mister Macys posted:Hasn't stopped people from trying. That's fine, but camping is generally someone who never moves through most of the match. I dont know about everyone else, but if I see someone who might be doing this after they get me, Ill go clean them out because of the cam. Moving from one choke point to another, or cycling firing lanes is different. Philthy fucked around with this message at 17:52 on Nov 10, 2014 |

I'm not saying it's a good strategy, I'm saying they're more prevalent than one thinks. Especially on Solar. People want to hold the same three spots around all the time.

This is the first CoD I've been looking at a majority of killcams, just too see how loving laggy the match is and see me just standing casually not seeing anything apparently.

MW3's was even worse. I never saw the killing shot in a match. Ever. Killcams always showed the enemy with a full second of killing my rear end. How I went 1.8 I'll never know.

http://m.uk.ign.com/articles/2014/11/10/call-of-duty-advanced-warfare-update-coming-soon Patch incoming at some stage. " Fix for weapon reloads counting as speed reloads in certain circumstances." All my reloads count as quick reloads. What do dual mags do then if there's going to be a quick reload mechanic? You reload faster and keep the ammo?

Not sure what it is about this game, but I am pretty drat awful compared to the last few iterations. I did get the game a week late so I have to account for map knowledge but I have a hard time finishing kills mostly due to the boost evasion and double jumping. The ability to boost over walls and obstacles is getting my killed too, since you not only have to watch your flank but above/below you.

I'm really wondering how much my doing better in AW's multiplayer is because I'm on PC this time rather than Xbox, and how much is just the game being better. The short time I played Ghosts/BO2 I got poo poo on until I got frustrated and stopped playing, but here I'm holding my own and don't feel like I'm getting constantly matched up against 13 year olds on amphetamines.

Yeah I forgot about that but no one bothers with that poo poo or shooting down anything that flies.

Maybe it thinks I'm a poor and gives me some of that sweet sweet compensation. Yeah I never bothered but people did this in previous CODs. Literally gimping your connection gives you a better connection because of lag comp I guess? Idk Pheel posted:Not sure what it is about this game, but I am pretty drat awful compared to the last few iterations.

I also run around like a loon zipping around like an idiot. It's mostly that some maps have so many elevated points you can get killed from and especially over B on every domination match
