Anyone having any issues with connections? I'm in MA and I can't get more than 2 games in without getting crushed with connection interruptions. Eventually it kicks me offline and I have to restart the game.

I'm in MA and still have never managed to connect to the servers so you are one step ahead of me!

Any minute now that version number is going to change, I can feel it.

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
Well gently caress me. I threw 60 greenbacks at this game despite being poo poo at FPS because I want to be "in" on the new "hotness." I don't know why I didn't queue it up before I watched Shaolin vs Lama, but now I have to sit and watch it download while suffering from early-onset buyer's remorse. If anyone wants to add this sadsack on PSN for blops action my handle is kittypoptart. I'm better than poo poo, but I've only gotten a kill streak reward that was better than a UAV like three times. Ever.

Is the campaign any good? I like the idea of having the multiplayer at the ready to knock out a few matches whenever, but it'd be nice if the single-player (or co-op, if any of my friends would get a pS4(if I had any friends)) was decent to boot.

hi how are you?
there was this racist piece of shit in your av so I fixed it
you're welcome
pay it forward~
I don't know if netcode is finally fixed or if it just feels good because there is enough players on that it can find other low-latency players to play with. I hope it doesn't turn to poo poo as the game dies down and it starts grouping me with people across the ocean

Also for smoother play: Turn off VSYNC, set framerate cap to 1-2FPS lower than your monitor's refresh rate, and edit config.ini in SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Call of Duty Black Ops III\players folder to set the FOV to 120.

Can't even get 30fps on 1920x1200 with everything off/on low, but when I set the render resolution to 80% I can push everything up to high and even run filmic SMAA 2x and it runs stably at 60fps.

I can't disagree more. The only thing that matters for shotguns is ohko range, and these are all horrible. I got so annoyed I dvred some clips

Skip to the last ten seconds of the clips too see how short the ohko range is. You'd be better off with an SMG in almost evening but knife range.

So um my new office fridge came with a copy of this game, and looks like two season passes. I don't know if this is normal or not. I'd try to sell the second, but I don't know if it'll work (I tried redeeming it just in case it was extra content or something but it gave me an error message). So the first person that PMs me that wants to try it can have it, I guess. PS4.

Course if I'm an idiot that missed something in 61 pages of posts, please disregard.

I thought the campaign for this was good at the start, and my enjoyment steadily decreased until I beat it and decided it was poo poo. That ending was awful.

No one man should have all that Psycho-Power.

Yeah so after using it the Gorgon is pretty dang ridiculous. Slows down my usual insane pace run and gun but results speak for themselves.

Also Kinetic armour is pretty butt :( Shame cause she is the coolest character.
