Yeah, the Call of Duty website says I redeemed a code for Playstation, but I haven't received any token yet. It's 12pm my time, so I don't know what the deal is. :shrug:

Got my beta code from Amazon and logged it onto the CoD website. What happens now? Do I get another code from them to enter into the Xbox before the beta goes live?

Yes, another code will appear on that site as soon as the beta is ready. They'll also send it out by e-mail, although that one arrived well after the beta starting time for me.

The Xbox beta seems to crash on startup, can't get it to launch on my Bonx. Others are reporting this issue as well.

Guess I'm playing on PS4.

Mine is still downloading, stepson says his is working on original Xbox One ok. Try redownloading or clearing console cache?

Deleting all saved data didn't work, but uninstalling and redownloading did.

Thankfully this time they added an option in the menus to mute all players not in your party.

I have a USB soundcard connected to my PS4 that isn't attached to any speakers specifically so I never have to hear party chat.

I'm not interested in Battle Royale/Blackout and hearing that zombies are part of the experience really solidifies this.

I'm curious. To those of you that are super resistant to Blackout. Why? I need a better answer than BR being trendy, because it's also fun as gently caress and it would nice to play a BR mode in a competent game unlike PUBG or Fornite.

I don't care about Battle Royale as a concept. It's not "fun as gently caress" to me. It sounds interesting, but has worn out its welcome pretty quickly to me.

Adding zombies only makes this worse.

Control, their new objective mode, on the other hand, is great.

I'm not into BR, but this feels surprisingly finished. Only noticed some minor bugs. If I were PUBG, I'd be worried - it's much better than their pathetic effort on consoles. Also, only got to #2 - should have taken that sniper rifle!

At the rate things are going, PUBG wont't hit 1 million concurrent players regularly for much longer. They've been bleeding an enormous amount of players.

The zombie areas straight-out suck. There's no reason for their lovely horde mode knockoff to taint Battle Royale.

I have a corsair void USB surround sound one too. I don't remember if it works on PS4 though. The last time I tried it didn't work unless I'm confusing it with the Xbox.

Any USB headset works on PS4, including wireless ones. It's Xbox that doesn't allow for USB sound cards.

Can’t wait to turn off crossplay with pc players day one lol. If anyone else is concerned I’m sure that will be a feature. That aside, this actually sounds awesome. I like everything I’ve read about the game so far. This is the exact time when a proper reboot of the series is needed most.

They won't have crossplay with PC players enabled by default.

BR is like regular multiplayer, but you have to drop from an airplane, run around doing tedious looting, get shot and then wait forever to get into another lobby. It's the boring parts amplified.

Like a bad version of Counter Strike that doesn't understand why CS is great.

Nice to see a COD game with real guns again. The new graphics engine looks really good, too.

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.

I've been playing on a (pretty good) LTE connection for a few days instead of my usual cable connection (everything hardwired). I was playing much better than usual. Maybe the key to being good at CoD is a bad connection.

Cool intro for MP matches. Engine upgrades more apparent here.

How can you tell with video that low quality?

Also, weird choice to have some annoying youtuber talk over the beginning of every match, but I guess it's to entice the youths.
