What gun are you going to use in this Call of Duty?
	The good one that everyone else uses
	Another, different gun

Would play the gently caress out of COD China Edition.

Also, some videos coming out of Gamescom, this one has all the weapons, perks and killstreaks, presumably what we'll see in the Beta in a few weeks.

Nice to see that the scorestreaks are all basically analogues of the ones in Blops 2.

As long as stealth perks don't work against it at all, I'm perfectly fine with letting it be shot down.

(They'll let every perk work against it, I'm sure. gently caress MW3 forever)

MJeff: Jun 2, 2011; THE LIAR

That's fine, honestly. You're basically only using a launcher if you're shooting down scorestreaks, so, you should be able to get the most out of giving up both a point for the launcher and the absence of any other secondary. And VSAT/EMP was basically a match-ender in Black Ops 2, because there was no way to counter it (besides hard-wired and :lol:

who the gently caress used hard wired).

That said, I hope it has at least one set of flares.

And, obviously, Launchers should be the only counter. Ghost better not counter it, but it didn't in BO2, so I wouldn't expect it to.

Also, the Blops 2 RC-XD and VSAT cost 50 points more than than their Blops 3 counterparts. Fairly minor change, but could result in surprisingly more scorestreaks being earned.

Ghost works exactly like it did in BLOPS 2 so you're in luck.

beaner69: Sep 12, 2009

It would only be balanced if it had two flares that way it couldn't be shot down by one person. Or, if ghost/assasin/babbyperk is gone.

Game modes so new, they will tear your rear end in a top hat inside out, rotate it 90 degrees and stick it back in so you will poo poo sideways

Servers so dedicated, they make Franciscan monks look like the noob shitlords they are

Some pork I made last year, god I love this pic

That's right. In addition to being the most tactical, one will find that these ops are also 50% blacker than previous Ops encountered by the MLG pro community:

Advanced Warfare is the newest CoD that has been released. Don't buy it, very few people play it.
Wait for Black Ops 3 to come out in the fall. Then you can play with us for like 2 weeks until we all realize that it is a poo poo game like the last 4

Pro move is to just play the beta, and then switch the preorder to an actual good game.

I kid, there are no good games anymore.

Jeez, they really want people to use Hard Wired. Now it does everything it used to do plus immunity to Smoke Screen (I assume they mean immunity to its new radar effect, not like... making the smoke invisible), complete protection from setting off proximity-detonated stuff, and resistance to two other perks.

Well Hard Wired was basically useless in BLOPS 2 so its nice it does something for once.

Can't wait to spend at least a month grinding out the challenge for killing enemies actively being hurt by your own Guardian.

I hope it works exactly how it did in BO2 HC where it doesn't hurt friendlies. Unlike some people I actively tried to not run scorestreaks that would wipe out my entire team. :v:

A few days ago I couldn't sleep so I thought I would bore myself to sleep by watching some ESPORTS BLOPS 3 PRO MATCHES from Gamescom, didn't work and was still up until 7am, but was able to watch a whole game. That Annihilator Specialist ability seems to be extremely overpowered, it's basically the Hunter's Golden Gun ability from Destiny, but instead of 3 shots, you get 5 without a timer. :shepicide:

It's going to be really painful going up against stacked teams running Analilators, looking forward to all our posts a week after release.
