I'll add you and you can spam friend requests.

I'll be setting up a new one when the beta comes out so it's easier to find active members for BLOPS 4.

Map layout for Frequency



Standard Treyarch stuff. Reminds me of Mayday and that one BO3 map where it was a jungle/icefield/city. Grabbed it from Drift0r’s video on playing the PC version at E3 (spoiler: PC version is apparently running not great)

Not fan of the night maps in BO3, especially when they can come up after playing the original version so you play the same map twice in a row. I would probably be okay with them if the character models stood out more. As it is, all you can see is the little red light accents.

The ICR was crap early on. It was rock steady, but the damage and fire rate were infuriating as I recall.

It was basically "this gun has zero recoil, mostly because it's throwing spitballs at the other team."

That's why killing dudes with it was so fun. You were killing them with what was essentially a super soaker. Bonus points for also keeping a higher kdr than them while doing it.

It was the BRM (their damage was the same; RoF was within ten or twenty of each other), but with the AR attachment to double headshot damage. :zaeed:

If they hadn't repeatedly nerfed the recoil pattern and made the reload speed almost as bad as the BRM itself, it would've been one of my mains.

Waiting on supply drop / weapon info before even thinking about it. If they’re not doing an open beta I might hit GS and get a preorder to get in said beta then cancel as I’d ultimately would want to have this as a digital title.

Also Blackout even though they’re probably still putting that together and it may not even be ready for launch.

You can’t have a good game without good maps. WW2 shipped with 9 maps, and a majority of them were terrible. Then there was the shitshow of a launch, the stubborn gun balancing, Divisions as a big step back from Pick 10, and how the game was managed until Condrey left SHG.

Its funny how fast the game improved when Condrey left. I know developers have a vision for how they want their game to be, but when the feedback is overwhelmingly negative things need to change.

Yeah it was amazing to watch it unfold. Almost everything I didn’t like about it got addressed in some form and it became pretty decent imo. I understand the rage though.

Infinite Warfare actually has good maps, though. Also I finished building my new PC and this poo poo is niiiiiiiiiiiiiice. Now need some big games to break it in. Also there's a WORLD loving CUP GOING ON so I probably won't be around much during the weekends anymore.

Well when you decide on some decent multiplayer games let me know. At this point my PC is mainly used to mod Bethesda games.

I have no idea what MP is around on PC nowadays but I’m down for whatever. Also, Drift0r put a video on the Black Ops Pass shenanigans and brought some new info to the table:
- They’re planning the “most” free post-launch content of any COD in the form of events.
- There will be new/additional Specialists (some/maybe all will be free?)
- This one is really fun: during said events they’re planning on making DLC maps available to everyone on what I imagine will be event playlists. Sounds like whatever WW2 has for events but I have no idea how that game works.

But the REAL point of that video is the footage of him playing Ruin during the last 5 minutes or so. Grappling Hook looks real loving fun and may take care of that Advanced Movement need I’ll definite have.

Fix your poo poo before launch, Treyarch.
