What determined our division? Did anyone ever figure out why we were being placed in the high divisions for ghosts? I remember there was a thought it was based on clan roster size.

Yesterday the game put me in a round of HCTDM against a full clan of 6, and it just started the match without me having any teammates. 6 on 1. Matchmaking is pretty busted sometimes. So what I did was I'd pop out of my spawn, kill one, then jump off a cliff. That way, they'd come look for me and I'd already be somewhere else without giving them a point. Rinse and repeat. I could hear them screaming over the killcam rage mics, it was very funny.

I've been in a few matches that had like 10 on 2 or 9 on 3. Not sure how it happens, but its boring as gently caress tying to chase down 2-3 guys, especially when the game thinks its a full lobby and never balances.

I'm sure that W/L ratio is the biggest (only?) factor because they aren't smart enough to come up with anything more sophisticated. We get put in Plat because almost all of us that play don't bother when there aren't any other BOYS online to play with and that results in us winning 99% of our games against lovely pubbies.

Anidav posted:I just got this game yesterday and what the gently caress is wrong with the spawns? No matter which mode I play, you can't hold ground because the spawns are just random. What's been cleared in the last 5 seconds becomes deep enemy territory. Oh you just captured that point? Someone spawned behind you and killed you. It's my first COD and this was the first thing I noticed as well. It's about the only real fault I can come up with, and I'd like to think it's because the maps are just too tiny for the 18 player matches. Those should maybe be using maps a third or double the size.

lovely spawns are a large part of why a lot of us play Dom. Once you know the maps, you learn where the spawn boundaries are. Take A and B or B and C, and stay out of the territory of the third point, and they'll keep spawning anchored around that point. It's only when you (me) push too far that they flip and people spawn behind you.sba posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLK_pzV9198 This is almost the exact same situation as when I got mine.

So apparently strafe kills aren't necessary for the camo challenges on ARs? I just got diamond camo on my BAL even though I still need like 20 strafe kills for that camo.

I've been playing around with a Ground War build for getting a steady stream of Bombing Runs, it's not amazing but it can be a lot of fun when it works Primary Weapon: Anything though usually something reliable with mid to long range capability. In the video I'm using Ameli - Crafty with Quick Draw and Thermal but honestly typical BAL or AK12 or whatever will probably work better Secondary: I like Stinger M7 for taking down enemy UAVs for extra points but this is optional Perks: Low Profile to avoid getting picked off while hiding away, Cold Blooded for the same reason, Hardline to make the Scorestreaks cycle faster. Sometimes I'll cram in Toughness if I skimp on my primary weapon attachments or launcher Exo: None since this build usually keeps you away from the action Scorestreaks: Recon Drone, UAV with Assist and Duration, System Hack with Assist, Bombing Run Get a couple of kills/objectives done till you have Recon Drone or UAV, then find a quiet low traffic area to hide out- most maps usually have at least one spot where people aren't going to bother to look. Use the drone to get spotter points and if you have good aim clock a couple dudes in the face for assist points. Pop UAV when it's ready, continue to hide out until your teammates build you up to a System Hack and then pop that. Generally the UAV will stay up for the duration of the System Hack so you'll be getting 30 points per teammate's kill. This will get you to the Bombing Run, and most of the time between the Bombing Run and your teammates getting kills you'll get built back up to the Recon Drone where you can run the whole cycle again. My best run of this so far has been on Ground War Domination where I got seven or eight bombing runs in one match I like it for Ground War since the number of people will work in favor of the UAV/System Hack bumps, and sitting away from the action in a 9v9 is less detrimental to your team than sitting away in a 6v6. It kind of falls apart if the other team has a lot of people running Cold Blooded or they're bothering to shoot down UAVs though that doesn't happen often in pub matches. This is a nice build if you suck at first person shooters like I do since you only have to shoot like two or three dudes before you can hang out somewhere and drink coffee and play around on an iPad while everyone else does the heavy lifting Here's a video where it worked pretty nicely, maybe someone better/smarter than me can make this work without having to rely on the points from Recon Drone and really melt faces with a second damaging scorestreak in its place https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVsHfHTUZ6U

When you prestige and do something to trigger one of the challenges you've already completed, it dings and gives you experience, and then counts toward diamond. So if you completed six camo challenges, prestiged, and then killed someone without attachments after already having that challenge, it's counted twice and now you're 7/7. Makes a lot of sense. But I was able to get Royalty on assault rifles even though I never really used the MK14 at all.

Pretty_Llama posted:Remind me never to get in a foxhole with Jack - he runs at the first sign of danger. We were in the middle of a back and forth round capping A when the enemy called in a Vulcan - the coward jumps off the point with one tick left to let me get cooked. You are on team XxXsnIpezX 2.0 probation. If only we'd been playing hardcore, I could have teamkilled you and spared you the indignity of getting hit by the vulcan. I thought I had timed my jump away just right so that we'd get the cap and I'd avoid the blast, but alas. Your reaction was well worth it, though, because it never crossed your mind that it had been me.

limited posted:Best part is when you're trying to get this, is to add the trap function to it. Sure, you missed dropping it on them, but afterward.. The fact that the trap function works even after claiming the care package makes it even more hilarious when you forget about it mid-match.

Thing I want in the next patch: team mates are not allowed to pick up your trapped packages if you've already picked it up. I can't even tell you how many times stupid pubs have picked up the package I just picked up in front of them.

For all none of you that were curious, even with +2 damage, the EPM3 is a minimum 3 hit kill (i.e. garbage). I felt like the 300 kill variant sucked less, but it's still not worth it.

I really wonder what happened during development with that thing Slow ads, gives away your position, low damage, short range, makes you run slow, overheats immediately if you lay on the trigger, actively blinds you and gives you a headache It might as well plant a middle finger in the middle of the screen

All of the semi-autos feel really crappy, like the designers were afraid of making them too good or forgot that this is the game where people can just spontaneously dash in any direction.
