Well guess what I signed up for beta again. Through Amazon again. Hopefully they'll give me a code without me bugging them this time.

Shame they put Nuketown in the battle royale map and every single person is going to drop there and defeat the purpose. (If that completely unsourced leak is true. Or I misunderstood a lovely joke.)

Or I misunderstood a lovely joke.) Blackout’s portion of the trailer shows nuketown. And raid. And a zombies map (with zombies) and Cargo, I think was the last one. So yeah it’s just a big map with COD maps sprinkled around as towns.

So some (or all) shotguns in BLOPS4 have a secret Dragon’s Breath perk which is unlocked by attaching a number of wildcards to the weapon. Shotguns are back, baby. Also all the weapons are now shown/listed here. Happy Noodle Boy fucked around with this message at 16:45 on Jul 31, 2018 |

Ok I preordered from Amazon. How do I get this stupid beta code? Edit: I got the order confirmation email, but it says nothing about the beta. Did I need to pre-order the digital version or something? housefly fucked around with this message at 16:58 on Jul 31, 2018 |

I'll be on sporadically this weekend. Hopefully they don't reset progress between beta weekends. Daddy needs that unlock token from the start.

jase1 posted:Is the digital deluxe version worth it, I’m purchasing through the PS4? Are you going to be playing zombies? If yes, then yeah probably. Otherwise I’d say skip unless you’re dead set on wanting the DLCs maps which will still be fragmented (but not nearly as bad as before). Assuming they’re not idiots and simply add the new map into the rotation instead of gating them on DLC playlists then they may get more playtime than previous DLC maps in the series but you’ll still be mainly not playing the maps as long as a couple of people in the party don’t have the pass.

That seems like a very reasonable and balanced selection for the multiplayer beta modes! I can only imagine what hidden treasures and craziness await us in the full release, and future DLC updates!

Boy was I excited to try out this Skyjacked map thanks to DLC1 being free. ...But then I spawned in, and a sense of dread came over me. This is hijacked I gasped and resigned myself to another poo poo map being remade. Have a clip from the combatace comeback tour as penance for my awful story. Pubbies never change.

Actually, Hijacked differs from Exodus in a significant way in that, while both can be considered to have a four lane setup, in Hijacked, one of those lanes is completely inaccessible except from the two entrance and exit points! In addition, the two elevated areas in Exodus are directly connected on the same level by a large extended room, while on Sky/Hijacked, they are separated completely except by the maintenance room path two floors below! Skyjacked was modified so that the maintenance room path is accessible from the outside by a blast damaged side of the hull! Skyjacked, the easy way! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gmFEMnQ5ZY Mister Facetious fucked around with this message at 17:22 on Aug 2, 2018 |

If you pre-ordered digitally, you can just go to the PS store and download it now. If you pre-order elsewhere (aka got a code) I believe you have to enter that on the COD site beta signup page. Once you do that they’ll send (later today) a token so you can redeem it on the PS Store. It’s all a needlessly complicated bullshit to not have this be an open beta but that’s Activision for you.

Oh boy they went ahead and did itquote:The first new gun mechanic is predictive recoil. Each weapon in Black Ops 4 behaves the same every time you fire, depending on how long you pull the trigger for or how many successive shots you pull off. Not only does this give the guns their own personality, it allows players to counter the recoil. COD netcode and bullet travel/drop? What can go wrong? Also while the beta is scheduled to start at 1pm tomorrow they've started early last 2 years so maybe we'll see something happening tonight.
