I guess my connection has been trash lately because in FFA I can't hit anyone, love watching people pop around the corner, and I fall over dead. Pretty much standard COD fare. I might take gamestop up on that trade in offer.

Dead weight, just like this post.



So does anybody know if the Combat Readiness Program is against actual people or bots? I mean it goes through the matchmaking process so I'm assuming it is, but the people in that mode dont play like regular people (hence "combat readiness") I guess.

It's also the most patronizing thing since the annoucer will chime in with "good kill,nice shot, good double kill!" Every other thing you do.

On a different subject, I've regressed to running just support UAV and Care Package, with maybe System Hack to shoot for normally since trying to get anything higher is just to campy for my playstyle, anybody else running the same?

I do, because I spend so much time running around with shotguns that I can't keep a streak of more than 2-3 kills going. I typically run UAV, care package and sentry, though the sentry is optional if I want another perk.

I wish more scorestreaks had the support option. I've been using uav (support, scramble, extra time) + care package (support, better odds, reroll) + remote turret (support, sentry, 360 turret) and it has been a pretty fun stack to run in momentum.

What's the best uav setup?

I run support, enemy direction, and threat detection. It's pretty nice for the amount of time it's out.

Sentry AI/Support/Laser or Missile depending on how I feel that day, for me.

Care package I do support/trap/better odds, generally. Haven't bothered with double tap, but I only earn 1-2 per game most of the time so whatever.

I wish XMGs had an attachment that put up a chest level shield when you activated overwatch or something to give you some sort of deployable cover, even though this gimmick is fun literally any other gun in the game would do this better on account of XMGs being awful in every way

It's a mix of bots and real people. They just don't label them.

I have used it for definitely under an hour and it's just ridiculous. You could probably get the same amount of rage from 10 XMG kills as 1000 BAL-27 kills, despite the BAL being complete bullshit.

I have been using the XMG/Shield combo exclusively in hardcore for days and yeah the rage is amazing. People get so mad when "that fucker with the two machine guns" kills them, especially when I lock down and get longshots from across Terrace or something.

The shield almost never protects me in lockdown though, it's either too high up and blocks my shots or too low and I just die. I find it most useful on my back, to keep people from rushing me from behind.

Also fun fact: when you use Exo Hover, you can lock down while in the air. I h ave gotten a few kills as a hovering sentry gun over a point I just took in HC Dom.

I may have to try this. I've been using the noob tube and semtex lately and I've gotten a TON of glorious rage mics. Terrace is the best map every for this. Start at the top and just keep double jumping your way down all 5 or 6 levels, lobbing grenades as you go. I just wish you could reload explosives using scavenger. I'm pretty close to unlocking overkill so I can have 2 primary weapons with noob tubes on them, I can't wait for that.
