Oh I loooove going to the mooon ahaha ahhhahaaa
the new MP maps are actually pretty well made. I'm sure that will change overtime as people find the camping corners and enrage everyone who wanders by them.

but for the time being they are good...depending on what game mode you're playing.

The ski lodge map is actually pretty cool. I wish I knew where to hide when the avalanche shows up.
Zombies is really great this time around. I made it to round 14 solo and really like the slight changes to the formula. I only wish you could choose your character instead of randomly getting Malkovitch every time. :(

Hold a dpad direction while the map is loading to choose your character. First to hit the button gets the priority.
UP for Oz (Malkovich)
RIGHT for Lilith (McGowan)
DOWN for Decker (Bernthal)
LEFT for Kahn (Paxton)

Spoon have you seen the ray gun make an appearance? I swear I saw it in one of the Zombie trailer videos but I can't tell its silhouette in the 3D printer cause it rotates weapons so fast.

I haven't tried em yet because I just don't see the point in multiplayer anymore.

Tac-12 has pretty bananas OHK range now (for CoD). Shotgunning dudes is a point in itself!

I've personally used every one of the guns listed in that wiki except for the wall SMGs and shotguns. I really doubt that there are any 3D printer weapons that aren't listed there.

Speaking of the 3D printer, it's random. Maybe once in a while it gives you the gun on display, but a lot of the time it rapidly flashes through guns AFTER you hit X and gives you one that wasn't showing.

I guess I was just really lucky with the printer then. The group only got the Cel-3's because we thought it wasn't random and were really good on the draw. Confirmation bias I guess.

I swear, you need at least four goons or more to even have a chance anymore.

I've been playing solo on ps4 and I have like a 50/50 w/l ratio, it's not super awful unless the other team is pubstomping or whatever.

I just got an e-mail to sign up for Activsion Playtesting in the LA area, which took me to a survey. HERE ARE SOME SCREENSHOTS OF THE SURVEY!!!!







There was not an option past 2.0 KD or higher. :iiam:



Hopefully they pick me so I may be able to tell them that Black Ops was a piece of poo poo and they should scrap whatever they've done on Blops3 and make Modern Warfare 2 again.

Convince them to make a modern warfare collection, like the master chief collection but actually working.

I'd be surprised if some outside studio hadn't already been contracted to do this for release in summer 2016.

To be honest, I can't see a Treyarch collection happening though.

28. It could have worked better if I hadn't been pissing away points rolling the box 30 times.

I wonder how well it scales to 4.

I figured a new developer could bring some new life to the series, but they just created new problems for COD instead. Good thing the older games are still very active (and I don't mean Ghosts, screw that game, even if I was pretty good at it). I felt so gullible falling for Michael Condrey's promises, especially dedicated servers. I should've figured it was the same "hybrid" system Ghosts had.

I would like to reiterate that you should always be running paladin when you play Recovery. Just went 50-5 thanks to the 2nd half of the map being so open. Also, I just realized tonight that the rocket warbird is just similar enough to the Lodestar that I need to run it more often.

Do the rockets have the ridiculous cooldown the machine gun has if you fire it too much? I always use Warbirds with AI because of that.

Microsoft has always had a 30 head start on all Call of Duty DLC. Expect this for every DLC release for Advanced Warfare.

No, I just never cared and usually found out the DLC came out a month after it came out. I only cared because of the Zombies.

I think this is my last CoD game, sick of playing for extra content that should have been on the disc already

I played a couple of the new maps but I was so used to hardcore that I had a lovely time of it. Gotta remake my shotgun class since apparently it's no longer lovely, and then I'll be good to go.

Ran it tonight in HC Dom. It's absolutely nuts just how far you can zap people with it.
I think the max range before the shot disappears is actually better than MW2's SPAS. :iia:
