Thoughts on the beta:

Things I like

-Maps seem pretty well designed


You didn't see Javes get spawn killed for a full 60 seconds thirty metres away from the nearest dom point, because his entire team was only spawning in a single building.

The guns feel pretty good but the overall experience is horseshit due to janky controls and claustrophobic maps coupled with terrible spawns and lovely netcode (which may or may not just be a beta thing).

Overall I give the game COD/10, same rehashed garbage but you will buy it anyway.

Seems to have a different opinion. Were you ADS when firing?

Ooooooh, so that's how you use the shottie. I was trying to get WAY too close before actually firing. Also I keep trying to slide up to someone like in Destiny but then they just get a free headshot usually. Gonna give this a try after work tonight :getin:

The only thing I'm having a problem with control-wise is the aiming. The autoaim is too strong and it messes my aim up. I think I'll do a better job shooting people next week in the PC beta.

Mapwise I like Hunted, but Evac and Combine are too small. Its very easy to camp the spawns in objective game modes.

I agree, actually. The direction of everything since MW2 is not to my liking, but I keep buying the games anyway because I am dumb and keep hoping they'll go back to the stuff I like.

At least this one having a beta means I can figure out that this one won't without spending $60.

I can't quite place what bugs me about multiplayer anymore, and why I haven't been liking it. I guess that now it seems like there are so many gadgets and mechanics and killstreaks and strong guns that the game really is just a huge twitch fest. All of them have been to some extent, but the maps are just so -small- now. They have huge arenas at the spawn points but then have just two or three corridors that make up most of the ground and are where the fighting takes place.

The originals had some tight corners but at least there was a lot more space. Now it feels just like a corridor and a game of who can shoot first, not best. That means I don't really feel any accomplishment by doing well; the stars just happened to align.

Yup, map design is most of it for me. The fact that everybody is spawning behind you coupled with the jet pack trend making everybody more mobile rules out any sort of slower/longer-range playstyle.

Mine are, "loving bullshit!" :rant: whenever I lose a 1v1 that I'm dead certain I should've won, or, "Jesus Hitler (loving) Christ!" :smithicide: if it's been happening for an entire match.

Depending on how terrible the netcode is for Primetime on my half of the continent, I'll play until 1am EST. If it's good, I'll go until 3, or when people call it quits.

Yeah matchmaking is kinda borked. It randomly disconnects you without saying anything.

On a positive note: HC-XD owns hard and it can drive on walls.

If you're having trouble finding a match right now, it's because the game is having trouble counting. Better now than on launch day, I guess.

Heads up, the issue with the game has something to do with current people playing and it assumes a lobby is full when it isn't, no ETA on a fix.

You might not be able to matchmake but if someone's in game you might be able to join them.

This is definitely a beta, and not a rebranded demo; a bunch of things need fixing in the coming months.
Example: I backed out of a lobby while picking "keep your party intact" or whatever, and it took every pubby in the lobby with me. :lol:

Not sure who said it in the group I was in, but it definitely feels like BLOPS 2 and Titanfall had a baby.
I do miss the boost from AW though; I keep pressing the left stick, expecting more movement...

If they clean up the netcode and spawning, I could see my self buying it again; it really feels like BLOPS 2 with a movement mod.

The default LMG is LSAT level of good.
