How long is this map going to be in Blackout. My eyes can't deal with this poo poo, I can't see any movement.

Well the crossbow has different names for its third attachment depending if you’re in or out of a game, can’t equip charms, kill counter or death effects and can’t be golded as you don’t have 5 attachments to complete the challenge.

Way to go, Treyarch.

Also a bunch of other bugs but I’m mostly annoyed about my crossbow.

Why don't you just play normal quads then?

I like the fog map. It slows the pace down.

I died in Blackout and while I was waiting I decided to wash a hat in the sink. Then a new round started and I ran back, forgetting to turn the sink off and managed to flood half of my basement from 20 feet away. Just played 2 more rounds while my bathroom sink dumped water on to the floor. 3 loving hours of damage control and there's still 15 square feet that is soaked :bravo:

I guess what I'm trying to say is stop taking out Hot Pursuit. Also maybe make matchmaking shittier it's too drat fast.

Ugh, really thought more of the new engine tech would make it to multiplayer, but the graphics don't reflect the campaign trailer. Maybe it's cause I'm watching it on my phone screen?

Couldn't have been a worse way to show off your new game mode than an empty room of streamers you've never heard of all screaming LETS GOO at each other in a boring rear end 2v2 game mode.

The mode itself was ok. Had some glimmer of the mechanics (leaning, double sprint, double render on sniper scopes, scope glint when you’re being aimed at) but yeah two of the streamers were really loud and annoying and the mode was too small for a proper MP showcase.

Also no class selection but some good equipment use. Bouncing Betty is back!

I mean if you don't pay attention to either or both of the competitive and streaming scenes then yeah you'll never have heard of them, but otherwise within those circles they're pretty much household names.

My biggest concern about multiplayer in Modern Warfare is the gradual, sharp and unrecoverable score gap that happens in a lot of the matches. Most first matches these days is me joining a match where I end up on a team losing by 40 points. If that's not the case most matches end up being ~20+ wins/loses and it just ceases to be all that exciting.

what horror the gas

Most of us (chill goon crew) don't play for the excitement, we play to pubstomp while shooting the poo poo. If CoD was a fair and balanced game series we'd all have bailed a long time ago.

It's ironic that the least balanced CoD game made was the only one to ever have death streaks.

I was running them for some dumb challenge and had one bounce off the map. The others seemed to bounce based on the terrain they landed on, with drops on summit and frequency being hilarious with the vertical leap/breakdancing.

double render on sniper scopes

Is that when instead of zooming the entire screen in it just magnifies what’s through the scope, like an irl weapon?

I always wondered why most shooters don’t implement that, i assume it’s a RAM thing

When the game has to render what’s outside the scope at 1x and then also render what’s in the scope at 4, 8 or 16x.

It’s hugely resource intensive. Everything, not just RAM. CPU, GPU and both types of memory for sure. Tarkov has it, and it’s hugely taxing on performance.

Does it? I'm not seeing much of a difference, down to the fire still looking like sprites with laggy 30 FPS animations and the usual pop in.
