They reduced the Scythe's ammo again? How about making the other specialists worth using instead?

Besides the Purifier, Ripper, and War Machine, obviously.

Given how proactive Treyarch has been with patches, I'm really surprised the Purifier hasn't received any significant nerfs like the Scythe has.

The laser sight on the Kuda getting patched makes me sad, since you didn't have to ADS at close range pre-patch with the laser. (The laser sight bonus still seems to be in effect for the Razorback and HG-40.) And I'm thankful that Treyarch hasn't touched the Brecci yet on consoles.

VMP FOR LIFE

Related: Just finished the Clan prestige and started the kill counter prestige for the VMP because I guess I subconsciously decided I'm not gold/diamond-ing anything this prestige? I never wanted the kill counter until I saw a Spratt video where he had like 17,000 kills on the SVG and now I have to have it on all of my guns.

I have no idea what I am doing in almost any given situation.
I've been away for a while so I apologise if this has been answered:

Is the matchmaking being split into different pools based on DLC ownership? So after this DLC, will there be:

- Vanilla
- Vanilla + DLC1
- Vanilla + DLC2
- Vanilla + DLC1 + DLC2

Pools?

More like:

- Default list
- Default list with DLC 1 + DLC 1 only playlist (in Chaos Mode)
- Default list with DLC 1 & 2 + DLC 1 only playlist (in Chaos Mode) + DLC 2 only playlist (in Chaos Mode)
- Default list with DLC 2 + DLC 2 only playlist (in Chaos Mode)
- etc., and so on and so forth.

The highest player populations will be these three:

- No DLC
- The first DLC
- All DLC (Season Pass)

Glitch is fantastic when JackGeneric helps you cheese the four kills in a game four separate times so you not only finish the challenge for the ability but also get the associated hero armor and never have to play with it again ever.

Serious post though, they buffed the ramp up for it. I was consistently getting it 6x in a tdm match tonight where usually it would only come up 4-5x. Now if they'd increased the time like the tag n bag medals it would have been nice but oh well.

You know... I would really, really love to know why; in a game with tens of thousands of people playing TDM every night, why we keep running into fucks we've played before.

I recognized no less than ten loving names in as many games we've played before- on more than one occasion no less since the game came out.

Matchmaking tends to put you against players in a specific area, so you will encounter the same people if you play enough.

If you played COD on PC, you would probably encounter the same people every night.

The PC pool around me is so small I literally stop playing when I see certain people arrive in my lobbies because their presence means the games have moved further east to get enough people and the latency is going to start lying about being 70ms.

For this patch, why does the Kuda and Razorback lose 1hk range in HC but the HG-40 gains it? Just seems like more fuel for the p2w crowd. No slowdown while firing SMG's is also pretty huge.

May have to fire up the old ps4 to try out the dlc. Hopefully I can find a group to play God's Chosen Mode, as opposed to the TDM heretics.

Dom's fine... as long as you have 6 goons. Anything less, and you have to carry random idiot garbage, like pubby knife runners, or snipers.

Pubbies are deaf and mute garbage-tier unreliable lone-wolf pukes.

That's why I asked if the Kuda got better or worse because while initial reactions are negative, not slowing down while firing is kind of a big deal. Right?

Looking at the stats, it's actually not such a big deal for the SMG.

Prior to this change
Without stock SMG's had ADS Movement Speed = 0.80, ADS Movement Speed Fire = 0.76

With stock you moved at ADS Movement Speed = 1.04, ADS Movement Speed Fire = 0.988.

So this gives you about a five percentage points movement buff. It's not like the AR's, where it's a twenty point difference, or the LMG's, where it's forty.
