How to play Domination: You spawn at A point (let's call this A), in the middle of the map is a vortex that attracts players you can shoot for Bonus points (let's call this B), and on the other side is a third point you need to Capture (let's call this C). The objective of Domination is to Dominate your opponents. You do this by escaping the pull of the vortex (except to kill a few people who are hopelessly trapped by it), and proceeding to the Capture point. You then kill every enemy nearby, and if you did it right, you get a 200 point bonus for Capturing the Capture point! At this point your opponents conveniently reappear on the other side of the map, at Another capture point, and you get to do it all over again! If you wipe out 3 or more enemies while stealing their point, you often get bonus air support to assist in your next lap. How many Captures can you get in one game?? Really, people would have so much more fun if the in-game description wasn't so terribly wrong about how to play that confusing game mode! (Also, look at this idiocy: 5 kills, 500 points, a UAV. 2 Capture Kills + Cap on B + 3 Attacker/Defender kills + Capping C = 1175 points and you're kissing your Wraith/HATR/RAPS - I think the only maps I don't want to flip constantly are Aquarium and Redwood, not coincidentally the two maps with idiotic single lanes)

Mill Village posted:The BRM or the Dredge are the best LMGs overall. The Gorgon is really slow so its hard to use outside long ranges, and the Dingo is a weak bullet hose. Is the controller going to do anything? I have a hard time playing FPS games with one these days because 99% of the time the KB+M are way better suited, but jesus christ I would kill for a better chance to hit the right melee button. I've found myself using the BRM with quickdraw and a silencer after some experimentation. The Gorgon is a nice idea, but it fires way too slowly for most encounters. I thought about grinding out rapid fire for the Gorgon just to see if it would make enough of a difference, but that poo poo will probably take too long. Lady Naga posted:Turn your sensitivity way down, use your mouse only for fine-tuning your reticule and track your targets by strafing left/right depending on what'll put them in your sights. Keep your gun aimed a little above center mass. Use awareness plus headphones and stop sprinting around so much so you know where dudes are coming from. Make sure your FOV is as high as you can make it without it being uncomfortable on your eyes. Normally I'd say that if enemies are jumping around it puts them in a predictable arc but CoD seems to be fast enough that's not really relevant so if the guy you're shooting is jumping around a bunch it's not a bad idea to try and predict his movement and jump with him to track. I'm having more issues up close than anything else, but I think the major problem is that I'm still thinking of movement in the old COD style rather than realizing that people are going to be jumping around and sliding through doors and such. The few times I've remembered to use the movement to my advantage I've been way better off. My sensitivity is at like a three at this point, so it's not outrageous "must spin completely to get an AWP headshot" CS:GO sensitivity.

Since that clearly isn't going to happen in any game I'm a part of, I'm on board with the A-C-A dance of death.

It's interesting to see where you hang out on maps and what you're looking at. I also didn't know you could feather your boosts like that to get some really far glides going. I didn't think I would care to watch others but I really enjoy it actually. Thanks! And yeah, feathering boosts is really nice. You can kind of hover (jerkily) in place briefly if you do it right, too. Javes posted:Hey Versus, what setup are you using to connect your HD 598 to the PS4? I'm looking to upgrade my old turtle beach headphones and I'm considering getting a 598. I play on a BenQ monitor which, when not playing console games, is my center PC monitor. It has a built in headphone jack so it so I just press the appropriate buttons on it to switch between the PC and console inputs. Unless you're lucky enough to have a similar setup, I can't help you with that. Lazyfire posted:I've found myself using the BRM with quickdraw and a silencer after some experimentation.

I thought about grinding out rapid fire for the Gorgon just to see if it would make enough of a difference, but that poo poo will probably take too long. Silencer reduces the 3 shot kill range on it by 90%, so I'd recommend taking that off and using it with stock and/or ex/fast mags. Rapid fire for non-burst guns is like a 6-7% fire rate increase, so it will do very little for the Gorgon (and basically every other non-burst gun).

Yeah, that's exactly what I run and the reason I run it. It occurs to me though that I should be able to use my MIGHTY BRAIN to filter out my own footsteps, thereby making Dead Silence redundant. I am reasonable sure aforementioned mighty brain isn't up to the task, but I should at least try and stop relying on a trait to do that work for me.

Engineer and Gung Ho are both really strong Engineer if you want to ruin the other teams hopes of using streaks and/or equipment, and its great with Care Package. It's also an indirect source of points, paired with a Blackcell, you can get a lot of free score per game. I stopped using it on my non care package setups/anti air setups once I completed my diamond launchers, but when I was using it, I was routinely getting 1k-2k score per game from just shooting poo poo down. Gung Ho is at least as, and likely stronger than Fast Hands for sprinting hipfire, and pairs incredibly well with an obnoxious scavenger 2x flashbang/concussion setup. If you want to make the other team rage, run that with an Argus or Brecci. It's not necessarily any better than a good offensive smg, but people haaaaaaaaaaate dying to shotguns.

Deviant posted:Maybe I'll try Gung Ho, I thought Fast Hands was doing the job you say it's doing. It is, but it conveniently frees up the green slot for scavenger so you can run 2x flashbangs and be a sprinting grenading rear end in a top hat. And Gung Ho lets you throw those grenades while sprinting, which Fast Hands doesn't. I haven't seen specific numbers on what Gung Ho does to sprint out times, but it's fast. (I also still have no idea if pairing Gung Ho and Fast Hands is good or a waste, but I can't think of any situation where I'd do that instead of scavenger/hardwired/tracker).

Lazyfire posted:I need something, I can't hit poo poo and everyone is flying around like nuts. Granted, my last COD was BLOPS II and I've been playing CS:GO and Battlefield since then so the wall running and double jumping is kind of new for me. It's kinda rough mostly because the game is designed around auto aim which is why forced flinching isn't so bad if you have aim assist. I imagine aim assist also helps a lot in shoddy netcode situations.
