Just two more hours until we get excited about November! And just 3 1/2 more months or so until we hate the new game again! The circle of COD...

Spoon Man posted:BOMBING RUNS?! loving right! I'm sold on this game just based on the modes alone. That is the single biggest reason I quit playing Ghosts. They took out all of the modes that were halfway decent and left us with Blitz, which although it looked good on paper, it ended up being incredibly lovely in practice. CTF and Hardpoint should have never been taken out. Even if Momentum and Uplink end up sucking, it's nice to know we'll have some solid classics to fall back on.

There are more. The devs did a Q&A on Twitter this morning, and they said there are more streaks and more modules, but none of them will be revealed until launch.

An Uplink match is about to start.

Uplink stuff (new to me): - Throwing the ball into the goal is 1 point - Jumping into the goal while holding the ball is 2 points - If the game is tied at the end of regulation, it goes to a stopwatch overtime like CTF in BO2. I'm trying not to overhype myself, but drat I can't wait to play that mode...

The Merry Marauder posted:I thought they were just not-Tomahawks, but who knows. If you're talking about the thing I think you're talking about, that thing can be recalled like a boomerang. They talked about it on one of the streams the other day. So you can not only kill people via direct impact, but you can pull it back to you and kill anything in the way.

penis bandana posted:I will get this game for whatever console the important nerds get it for, and then I will be forever pissed at you guys for forcing me into a lovely purchase and flipping spawns all the time. The gigantic gap between PS4 and Xbone console sales would suggest PS4. The huge disparity in goon populations for Destiny would suggest PS4. The spreadsheet says it's Xbone.

That's the boat I'm in at this point. The only reason I'm getting it on Xbone is because I've enjoyed playing CODs with the Xbox group in the past. Unless you care about getting the map packs a month early, I'm not sure there's any other reason to get it for the Xbone.

Another reason Ghosts was terrible: lovely game modes. No CTF, no Hardpoint (which had been a big hit in the previous installment), no Headquarters, and I don't think there was even Demolition. Blitz looked cool on paper, but it played horribly. Every game turned in to teams trading caps as fast as possible with virtually no defense played. AW is bringing back CTF and HP, so it's already on the right track. Uplink looks like a ton of fun, and I don't think it will flop like Blitz since the ball mechanic draws the action to a central location at all times. And then Momentum should be solid. It's a formula that works great in TF2. If anything, it's like a more dynamic Domination (which needs to die already).

Never been wrecked in a goon group like last night. I think we had about a .3 W/L after around 20 games. Lost the only Momentum game we played, lost EVERY Uplink we played (pretty badly at that), and even had some Doms that we only won by like one or two points or even tied. - Shotguns suck dick from what I saw last night. I'm hoping it might be like MW3 where they're terrible until you get a few attachments, at which point they're amazing. I got hitmarkers with the pump action shotty more often that not, even from like 10 ft. away. The S12 was even worse...I would get three or four hitmarkers from close range and still not have a kill to show for it. - Love the movement. The game feels so much faster now. - A lot of the killstreaks feel very underwhelming, and they're made even worse by the perks you get straight out of the gate. The stock Warbird feels like it stays in the air all of 10 seconds, and if you're lucky enough to find someone NOT running the stealth perk, it seems like it takes way too many bullets to kill. I'm sure it gets better with the extra modules, but I feel like there's no incentive to use it otherwise. Haven't tried the Paladin yet. - I like the new game modes a lot. Momentum is a good spin on the standard point capturing formula. Uplink is cool too, but it takes a fuckton more coordination and teamwork than something like Domination and is definitely frustrating to play when everyone isn't on the same page. I'm glad Hardpoint is back, but they desperately need raised borders for the capture area. It's drat near impossible to see that little yellow line sometimes. - I know the game just came out, and there's still a lot to learn, but I just can't see how it would ever be possible to get a DNA Bomb without camping your rear end off. The game is way too fast, and you are vulnerable from drat near every loving angle imaginable. It's a little disappointing since it was possible in MW3 and Ghosts to gets MOABs/KEMs while running around like a madman as long as you played smart. I just can't see that happening in this game.

According to the app, clan wars are currently frozen. They will reevaluate the situation at 11 EST this morning. I guess that explains why our wins weren't updating last night.

I read something earlier today that said AW sales are lagging 27% behind Ghosts sales over the same time frame last year. Maybe the average consumer is finally realizing what goons realized years ago.

Agoat posted:The main Xbone clan is full? I'll make another if people will play. If you're talking about BOYS, I seem to remember there being around 58 or so members last time I looked at the in-game roster. And I can't remember the last time I saw more than maybe three or four of those people online playing COD at once.

Maybe this is old news, but apparently the Ohm has a hidden slug mode: http://youtu.be/d3IW4tCIkwU You have to use the hybrid sight to activate it. It has the same range as the normal shotgun mode, but it's a one-shot kill at max range. From what Sledgehammer tweeted, it sounds like this might be patched soon. Almost makes me want to play tonight...
