That's what locker slots are for, you can save a cosmetic loadout, banners music emotes wraps and everything. Then enable shuffle and it'll random on anything you have saved in the locker.

Unless you mean that you could save a loadout including what's marked favorite so a frozen skin picks from some random favorited icy blue wraps/pickaxes but a sports skin picks sports stuff only. In which case I want that too.

I mean the latter. I have too many saved in my locker and just want to cycle through a few some nights.

My wife and I got the 250 health/shields from Augments weekly earlier by getting the Jellyfish augment and fishing right by the circle so we could take damage, heal off the jellyfish, rinse and repeat.

How does that activate? I got it last night and then didn’t see anything different?

You equip the map that spawns and hold down the trigger to see an arrow that leads you to an x. Once you find it you can use your mining tool to dig up a chest that has good poo poo.

Both times I got the perk the chest had healing items and two legendary guns so it’s definitely better than the other perks that spawn weapons (assuming you’re not in an active fight).

Well there’s my problem, I chose it while moving and I don’t think I even saw the map spawn and just left it on the ground lol

I didn’t know it was an inventory item.

There’s something magical about joining a squad of randoms, two pairs fighting over where to land, and then somehow winning despite not meeting up with the other pair till the very end of the match. I think our squad had 26 eliminations by the end of the match.

Since the beginning of time, man has yearned to destroy the sun.


I haven't done squad fills for a couple of seasons but there was always something magical when three of you would land in one spot and the fourth would land clear across the map, then seven minutes later they'd drive up to you in a flaming car with 10 health, a stack of gold weapons, and 12 kills.

I mean they end up dying 10 seconds after landing much more often, but still

Getting it while playing squads kicks rear end, especially if you need to drive cross-map to get the treasure. Can’t drive and look at the map simultaneously, so the mapholder has to navigate for you from the passenger seat - had a match earlier where we took a taxi off-road to find a chest and it turned out like

I got absolutely destroyed by a group of the other type of aliens.

Then I saw a group of dudes walking across the map. I think they were all doing the imperial march together. I went in the other direction because you know those guys were teamed up and talking together and would have destroyed me the second I started shooting at them.


I got bored so I've started playing games with my friends. The other day we did a no eliminations match. No elims by us, no elims of us. actually pretty fun to be honest. We got second place, but the first place team actually had their poo poo together. Tonight is mr president night (we dress up in suits, try to protect a random teammate from dying, we can only use pistols). I think were gonna do a 1 building game (you can only loot one building) night later this week.

The switch version looks real bad but it seems to run ok. I wonder if it makes the opponents easier to spot? Less visual noise.

It ran worse before the Unreal 5.1 update. It's night and day different with the new chapter. I play on a 55" and I find I can spot people pretty easily, but that might be just because I've been playing CoD for forever. The real problem is the very narrow, unadjustable FOV, and framedrops when poo poo gets intense up close.

If you're willing to mess with your game settings ini, you can pull lods lower to get a little more more fps.

or if you're like me last year you'll swing it the other way and force lumen on before it was ready:

One of my favs is Robocop. Since all the characters that have mouths have them rigged up, so many dances make him look so happy. It's amazing and also cursed as hell.
