barnold posted:new issue: on my laptop, launching Cold War makes mouse clicking stop working?? whether it's in the game or alt-tabbed back to the desktop, as soon as I launch the game from the Blizzard launcher, I can no longer left or right click with the trackpad on the laptop or an external mouse connected via USB until I restart the whole computer. this did not start happening until the Season 2 update. a quick googling and it doesn't seem like anyone else has this problem, though apparently this game has had a ton of mouse-related issues in the past. following up on this on the off chance some other poor soul stumbles across this issue: the solution is to go into Windows settings and disable Xbox Game Bar. this apparently has been a known issue with some machines/games for almost three years

It would be nice to play one game where I'm not constantly getting killed because the game spawns enemies behind where you just spawned.

Played for the first time in a while tonight, did they buff the hell out of the Hauer? I ripped through the other team when I picked one up. I was straight up unstoppable. It felt a lot better than the peashooter it was at launch.

There seems to be a neverending cycle in Call of Duty where people complain shotguns are OP --> shotguns get nerfed --> people complain shotguns are useless --> shotguns get buffed, so I wouldn't be surprised.

They were pretty consistently good in MW2019, though I think the existence of double tap shotguns like the R90 and 728 made a big difference by dramatically extending the range where you could effectively instant kill someone was a big part of that.

They added two different Zombies maps since the last time I played. Firebase Z is pretty straightforward, but Outbreak is pretty neat for being really different. Kinda gives me the same feeling I got off Apex Legends in how you're scouring the map for lootables, though obviously the zombies act very differently from opposing teams in Apex.

I wish they would have it two options for something like "Three Rounds" or "Infinite." Not knowing if I'm going to be playing it for fifteen minutes or two hours makes it difficult to fit in.

I just had to abandon a match because the screen didn't fade in properly when the match started, so I could only see the faintest silhouette of movement behind a black screen. After awhile I got killed and that didn't even fix it so I left. There were three other people on my team that also had 0 points after like 2 minutes so I wonder if it happened to more than just me.

Welp, fully upgraded all my perks, field upgrades, masteries and ammo mods on Zombies. Took some grinding but it's a breeze now on the higher rounds with all the added %DPS. Outbreak is cool and all except when you reach the higher rounds like 10. You've basically seen it all at that point and it just stays the same until you hit the zombos health cap shortly after like round 10-12. Wish they added some cool bonus poo poo on round 15 or 20 or something, it gets stale really quick otherwise. I will still grind high rounds with pubbies though with a podcast in the background because literally EVERYONE is absolutely stoned out of their minds for some reason when they play Outbreak (and that includes me). Met the most bizarre individuals from 13 year olds to extremely drunk 40 year olds, which I assume is the core playerbase of Cold War. (The latter are better because zoomers dont have the attention span for long-haul Outbreaks).

I always play zombies in private matches with friends. Outbreak is just a nice and chill way to level weapons, at least through the part where you get good attachments

If COD WW2:2 The 2ening plays anywhere near as well as MW2019 I’ll get it even if I’m not jazzed about it being WW2 again. Cold War felt like a step back even if I eventually got used to it.

An alternate reality would at least be potentially interesting. WW2 has no life left in it for a shooting game. There is no innovation to be found. It will be a waste of time, smothered by its setting.

I'm at the point with skin unlock quests that I'm down to vehicles and Warzone objectives. What's the best mode for knocking out vehicle stuff? In three rounds of combined arms, I got two tank kills. I didn't get a chance to ride around in an aerial vehicle. Not sure if I was in the right game modes for that. Also, there is an unlock objective for the black dude's skin of "Shoot Down Aerial Scorestreaks and Player Controlled Aerial Vehicles" with an asterisk. I've shot down so much poo poo and not got a single tic. Am I bumblefucking something? It sucks having to carry a launcher and spend the second half of the match staring at the sky.

Captain Log posted:I'm at the point with skin unlock quests that I'm down to vehicles and Warzone objectives. From memory it has to be specific aerial scorestreaks that can kill you, so the attack chopper, the VTOL etc. Shooting down the UAV's didn't count. I knocked them all out on a really long round of Combined Arms, which then crashed at the end not recording any of my progress. Was less then pleased. There is something really fun about c4'ing tanks though, only needs one and you can throw them pretty drat far.

Drop into a plunder match in Warzone, grab a buggy, run people over - storage is pretty good as there’s not much cover to run into. Took me two matches to get the kills, and it’s a lot of fun :honk honk:

I was really hoping it would be a Korean War game, there were rumors going around about it. it would be different at least. And you'd have a ton of different options for factions and teams and weapons

I have my performance completely poo poo the bed randomly after playing for an hour. It won’t crash entirely but my FPS will go sub-30 even though my CPU and GPU temps are fine and there’s no apparent reason for it to run like rear end.

If I leave Cold War open on my Xbox and go do something for a couple of minutes, I keep coming back to my Xbox being turned off. That's weird. The problem I kept running into with the tanks was them getting rocket launchered to high hell before I could do anything about it. I wish there was a crazy million tank map for challenges like these.

I may be the only one with this problem as I can't find anyone else talking about through internet searches. Does anyone else think the incoming bullet hit sound effect is way too loud in Blops? I find getting shredded by high ROF weapons to be extremely grating on my ears. Why is this sound louder than even weapons fire and explosions? There doesn't seem to be any way to turn it down at least on PS4 and I've tried the different sound settings and it doesn't help. I can't be the only one annoyed by this right?

I cannot confirm what exactly occurred multiple times that made me institute--and warn others of--my "don't leave Black Ops running and put your PS4 in standby mode" policy; however, I'm sure it was related to hard crashing and needing to rebuild the database on my system each time.

I have a similar issue with the armor break sound, especially in zombies - I'll be running and gunning fine, take a few hits, and then this insanely loud sound of steel snapping in two loving near deafens me every time. Nothing else is nearly as loud in the mix as this.

Man, Outbreak is frustrating. First two attempts to play crashed Cold War to my launch page. Then three games with a constant loop of "Failed to Join Server - Dismiss" requiring a restart. Got into a game with three extremely competent people, all of us running that leveled up revive perk. Wailed on a Hold Out, which is the kiss of death for idiots. Managed to pack my Weapon to level one, add napalm, and rank up the damage tier with a ton of left over points. Warped. No Connection. Crashed. Yesterday made it to the third round with randoms and two of them just disappeared mid fight during a retrieval. I want to enjoy Outbreak, despite the fact that games can last fifteen minutes to hours. But the technical difficulties are infuriating.

Try do a full cycle of your network hardware and if you're still having problems, something in your CW install might be corrupt. I haven't experienced anything like that.

The trouble is zombies is p2p networking unlike the dev servers for the other modes. So you are at the mercy of rando's connections. certainly recommend grouping with people to lessen the trouble, but of course that isn't always available

Enable latency showing on screen in options. If you're random queuing Outbreak, join and leave games until you find something below ~150ms. Anything higher than that basically guarantees a disconnect or technical fuckery down the road, and yeah it's especially painful when you just spent close to 3 hours reaching round 13 and then just get kicked to main menu/fail to migrate hosts or some other bullshit. If I wasnt already high as gently caress playing this, I would probably snap my keyboard in two and sign up for anger management courses. You basically have to roll a dice with your sanity and time each time you load into a match and it blows my mind how much this company gives no gently caress about its customers. gently caress P2P NETWORKING.

Zombies matchmaking always picks the worst possible option as the host. If you get one that has a decent connection there's a very high chance he'll just ragequit after going down once In my many, many matches I've been host twice, and I'm on fiber
