So my xbox-home buddy picked this up. Normally I wouldn't waste my time with more CoD garbage (blops 2 killed it for me) but it's free this go around. What's all the OP poo poo? I've been using the giant laser to hip-fire people down while im bunny hopping but I feel there's got to be something better.

Personally, I like the IMR but it takes a bit to get the hang of.The ASM1 with ext mags is just absurdly good. And if you can get yourself into the habit of using lockdown mode the XMGs are probably the most destructive weapon in the game.

BOYS is getting its asses handed to it this clan war.

We have the dom node, and the HCKC node is unoccupied.

Meanwhile Prototype owns TDM, CTF, KC, Uplink, S&R and Hardpoint.

HBRa3 Bear Fist or Average Joe are both excellent; I prefer the Bear Fist because it improves mobility whereas the Average Joe decreases mobility but adds damage.

What a remarkable idea to start Clan Wars on a Sunday night and finish mid day Monday.

Clan Wars are a loving joke, as is Beachhead.

Haven't unlocked the Bear Fist yet but I really like the HBRa3 Average Joe. It kind of feels like the FAD from MW3.

There were three getting wins (albeit only one getting any significant number) in the previous war. This was one excessively shittily timed, and the numbers you needed to rack up for control of a node were huge. 40+ for everything.

in previous wars we would easily have 2-3 6 man teams going after nodes. That would turn a high number node into about 15 minutes of work. When there are only 4 people playing at any given time.. makes it kinda hard.

The other night it was just me and Cactusmas playing CTF with a bunch of pubbies, and we only needed 42 wins to cap the node! We stopped after 2.

Did Beachhead just use the win requirements for the Clan Wars that occur over multiple days? The number of wins in each node was pretty high. TDM required 110 wins. :stare:

They're so dumb and fun. I found my new main weapon to use with my pokey knife and handcannon combo. I just wish they gave you more ammo. It's the kind of gun you'd want to dump with but you can't.

I had a game where both our team and the enemy team called them in simultaneously. It was basically a 30 second pause button as everyone huddled in buildings instead of trying to move anywhere, because those drat tanks will kill you through Blind Eye because they just litter the map with explosions.

Damned good games tonight guys. :patriot:

And if anyone hasn't already tried it; running UAV and Hacker with only Additional Assist Points makes a great springboard for Warbird + Aggressor in HC Dom.
gently caress adding Support and that Oracle perk; makes poo poo take too long, and not enough people run Low Profile in HC for it to be necessary.

I can. Us PS4ilures have to wait what, thirty extra days? By that point, all ya'll will have found every reason to hate them, and it'll kill any interest over here.
Kinda interested in the new gun, but boy howdy, map names sure are getting boring; what with their whole "one word only" stance on naming.

Have they posted a video yet?

My Xbox one controller no longer provides any input or output and now I can't hear people; prior to this I lost all game sound for AW so it could be connected. Has anybody else experienced and/or know how to fix this? I've done some googling and haven't found anything useful.

P.S. - I have not broken my controller in rage

Unplug your xbone then restart and see if there's a new controller firmware update.

I did this and could have stopped it, but nothing in nature ever follows a gaussian curve. Sure, they'll tell you that it does. They say that every five minutes someone dies in a car accident, but how often are there seven hundred and sixty one armless and legless corpses in one hangar?

Trying to get all the crossbow camos is the worst thing. Specifically, long shots, skeet shooter and double kills. Splash damage even with danger close and in hardcore is hilariously small, plus the long reload makes getting the second kill impossible anyway, or some fucker will swoop in and steal the kill after you've stuck a guy with a bolt.
