My friends kept telling me "Ground war is just like Battlefield"
lmao
Ground war is a unbalanced cluster fuck. It's a joke.

I gather, he made the top level decisions for most of the MP stuff.
Just unlocked the long barrel for the 725. Now it's seriously overpowered. Imho it's not that crazy just stock but adding the monolithic suppressor + green laser + long barrel is an absolute mindfuck.
However weapon handling is pretty terrible now, I definitely prefer it with a shorter barrel.

People complain about the tanks in Ground War and yet 2 Javelin shots(the amount you are given) will nearly destroy it and the driver will get out 90% of the time regardless.
The amount of people that complain about them but can't be troubled to spawn with a launcher is absolutely ridiculous
Its crazy, im playing Ground War entirely as anti-tank + anti-sniper and im doing like 45-55 kills and less than 5 deaths every single game.
I've been playing mainly ground war for the past week or so, I try to mix in a match of domination in there and that's when I encounter the complaints most people are talking about, dreadful maps, 725 being too OP, bad spawns, etc.
My only problem right now is ground war only has two maps, hopefully they can add some new ones ASAP or even add some of the 20 man maps into the rotation but without vehicles and making them 20v20.

Nice, can I ask what headset you picked up? Are you playing on console?
I loved how much respect Captain Price garnered from everyone. Even hardened freedom fighters like Farah. He's not as old as he was in the og modern warfare but he still seems like a Qui Gon Jinn esque mentor to Garrick
It's really funny how BFV is suddenly beloved when people were hoping MW would save us.
I went back to BFV and its such an utterly under appreciated game...at least with the Pacific update. Game plays like a dream.
I agree that IW needs to start acting elitist and implement many of Treyarch's ideas.
Rework Ghost. Bring back Pointstreaks which started with MW3 anyway. How do you go BACKWARDS on such a huge and positive change like this? No matter what changes they make, knowing some teammate isn't capping the flag because of his precious Killstreak is going to tick me off.
Remove the KDR tracking in objective modes altogether actually.
Bring back the classic minimap because you already caved on the minimap and the compass now seems pointless to have as separate.
Also I was hoping they'd communicate today on reddit. Guessing they just brainstormed the feedback on a Monday and tomorrow we can expect some solid communication.

I'm having a great time with the game and everyone I know that's playing this feels the same. I only play objective modes, so camping isn't too bad. When you learn the maps it's pretty obvious where they will be and you have a shit load of tools to deal with them.
Gun play is so satisfying.
The game is unplayable for me today, severe lags in all my matches that forced me to rage quit. First time this happened with MW
I can't take this game anymore. Why would they make passive camping play styles dominant with these maps and mechanics? Skilled Cod players were always rewarded for playing aggressively. You run out in the open for a second and bam you're dead! How disappointing.... it's gonna awhile to fix this one up.
Oh man, is there a reason people don't go for the "kill denials"
Is it to bait the other team? Cause I think that won't work. Just fucking take en

Think people are hitting their heads against walls by not attempting to adjust their play styles. That does not mean camping / slow walking everywhere, but does mean flashing rooms, smoking long sight lines, paying attention to audio and teammate positions and using your mic.
Why do they have to rework Ghost? what is wrong with it?
I need more content, I don't mind if itis literally just challenges for character skins atm.
Also,I need it

This cluster fuck of problems with this game is what happens when you decide to have 'beta' literally a month and a week or so before the game launch.
Whoever made that decision is beyond me.

What guns are you using? It's been treating me well with the p90, Uzi, AK, and origin
there is point streaks, it's just locked until a high level
everyone runs ghost. It Counters too many things. It's extremely useful for campers.
blackops had the bett
should bean option like specialist and not a perk.
I think people need to play the campaign and relearn tactical game play, these people that just walk/run around the corners or wide open spaces and blame the game/lag seriously have forgotten how to play non 3 lane maps and need to relearn
The problem though is that there's a multitude of things all coming together to make it so bad.
-Mostly terrible maps
-Terrible spawns (no that this is new to CoD but coupled with the really shit maps it feels worse than usual)
-Terrible weapon balance (725 range, M4, Riot Shields, etc)
-Slower player movement speed
-Claymores being a very low level unlock, virtually everyone has two of them (there's not much competition for that perk slot which is a separate issue)
-Characters calling out shit where enemies can hear (how did this get past being a joke on paper???????)
-Loud as fuck footsteps (even after the most recent patch)
-TOO MANY possible sightlines
The last one is the biggest offender for me probably. At this point I know the maps well enough where outside of the occasional "oh I didn't know you could get up there or have that angle on that" I know where all the points I can be shot at are at any given location. The problem is that you can't realistically peek every window or opening because a lot of the time there's gonna be like 5 different angles you could be shot from. So when you factor in so many things that can one shot you with slower movement and having multiple claymores there's practically no reason not to hole up or play it slow. I make liberal use of molotovs and gas grenades for objectives, possible peek windows etc, but you can't carry enough smokes to realistically cover every movement you need to make. tl;dr the game makes you very vunerable almost always for any movement and everything is currently set up to reward camping up at a window, so there's no reason not to do that.
And yes, playing slower and more tactical works to some extent (most of the issues above still apply), but I don't think most people come to CoD for that experience. I have absolutely no issue with slower play and camping being made more viable than it has in the past, the issue is that they did a hard 180 from practically every one of the preceding ~10 games in terms of playstyle and what I think most people play and kind of expect. If I'd known it was going to be this much like this I honestly would have just picked up BF, R6, or almost anything else, because while the gunplay is great in this nothing else really supports this playstyle very well IMO. It feels like they didn't know what kind of game they wanted, or the game got focus tested too hard (or not enough) and I think unless they make significant changes pretty quickly this game is going to get dropped harder than any CoD has from a general population standpoint. Which is a shame because I think with some small changes they could at least make it significantly better, if not one of the best in years.
Palace should be in this rotation.
Point streaks are in the game as perk. Not sure why its one of the final unlocks. Is point streaks considered "easier" since technically you don't have to kill anyone?
I think its rumored that the old mini-map setup is coming back.
I'll add callouts shouldn't be heard by enemies and footsteps need to be tweaked.
Honest question: how much different is BO4 from BO3? Watching videos of both the speed of those games are a night and day difference from this. I have BO3 from when it was free on PS+ but only dabbled briefly in it and I never touched BO4, not sure if it's worth buying BO4 to upgrade over BO3? I have zero interest in Blackout, only talking about the regular multiplayer.
I am barely enjoying this game. I see what my daily challenges are, do whichever ones I feel like doing, then get off. There's no marathon sessions like just about every COD prior to this, including Black Ops 4, a game I heavily hated. And by marathon I don't mean 7 hours. I mean 2-3. There's just no real motivation for me. Usually the challenges and prestige levels are that motivation, but whoops, you only get 3 + whatever you decide to activate at the time, and whoops, they removed prestige for a system that will reset every so often.
It would have been awesome for them, even if they didn't go prestige, to do something similar to the last two Black Ops games, where you hit level 100 (this was after master prestige, of course), then you get to pick a first prestige emblem from a prior Black Ops game. A second prestige emblem for level 200, etc, etc.
Just imagine hitting level 1000 in this game and rocking this bad boy.

Honestly BO4 had become too much for me last time I tried to play. Some of the maps are ugly and not fun (Jungle Flooded) and the TTK is very long. Also, hero abilities are very important. Black Ops 2 remains my gold standard.
I'd love to go back to BO2, but it's not playable on PS4 :(. I didn't touch Xbox this gen, so it's just not an option for me unless I dig out my 360 and resub to Xbox Live lol
Regardless of if you think this game is GOTG material or think it's a piece of shit, can we just please all agree that Claymores (or any similar explosive you just put down somewhere for it to trigger when someone walks by) simply shouldn't be in the games as a Lethal Equipment at all? It's the same shit with every game which does have them, they're always a huge fucking annoyance.
I couldn't care less about all the nerfs Infinity Ward is gonna make to Claymores in the future, they should simply be moved to Field Upgrades to significantly reduce spam if not removed entirely.

Claymores have a place in this game
but maybe it should've been a field upgrade
What system are you on? I keep hearing about crashes but have experienced none on my X with an Insider OS. Usually I'm on the shit end of game crashes with that. Worst I've had is some disconnects after standby mode was on too long.
My recipe for enjoying the game:
- Run Spotter. Never be killed by a claymore again.
- Always have something to counter riot shields. I like Molotovs for their speed.
- Equip smoke or stun grenades.
- Run Field Upgrade Pro with Stopping Power and the ammo box.
- On your gun, max one of: recoil reduction, fire rate, or ADS speed. Stop running the green laser.
- Stop playing TDM. Seriously just knowing where enemies will generally be in objective modes does a lot to mitigate things like Dead Silence and Ghost (they should still make Ghost vulnerable to snapshot grenades and heartbeat sensor, though).

sorry don't know bout that I'm too busy kissing all my girlfriends and using my cool ak
One X on Insider OS. My friend is also on a One X but normal OS and crashes even more than me. I crashed, went back on the game then immediately crashed again along with my console. Got back on and crashed again.
And I didn't even know he was a map designer for Sledgehammer.
Having a hell of a fun time with the Oden, set it up for high range/damage and it absolutely rips. A bit unwieldy and heavy/slow but not so unmanageable that it falls apart mid range. It's been really fun finding a gun that clicks and then really going down the rabbit hole with the customization.
~7 hours of gameplay later I finally got my 15 shield turret kills and the epic calling card unlock, AMA (god that turret is trash). On the plus side I'm also somehow at 7/10 on the execution kills for that one early mission everyone seems to hate which is hilarious because I haven't actually done a single one, so I guess challenges broke in my favor on that one?
Curious what, if anything they nerf this week. I realistically have no expectation of getting all of the camos for each gun due to low skill and some of them being either stupid or ridiculous (I somehow only have 1 kill after reloading with the M4 despite having like 300 kills with it since I unlocked that camo set???), but I do want to get stuff to max level at least and I'm kind of surprised at the grind. Like even after all this I'm still only just now about to hit the level cap on the M4, and my 725 is at like 27 since I honestly don't use that too much. I'm more of a launcher and shoot down anything in the sky kind of guy, which makes that stuff not counting for launcher XP progress right now extra annoying.
I am kind of excited to switch up to a SMG when I'm done with the M4 and see if the bit of extra mobility improves my opinion at all. Also curious to see how I feel about Pointman which I'm about to unlock; this game moving away from pointstreaks is an enormous negative IMO, and while it's at least in as a perk that's also going to force me to give up Ghost/Hardline which is the worst slot for me to give up :/
