Yea, MW2 popularized it, but there were some maps before MW2 that had the setup.

are the pc crash fixes coming out tomorrow...? i still haven't been able to actually play the game
The most popular maps were 3 lane like Invasion and Terminal.
But no, there weren't that many.
Keep hype for Kill House down
apparently it's possible that its a gunfight map that is reworked for 6v6 according to tgr
it was originally labeled a gunfight map.
Really hope thats not true

WHY THE FUCK CAN SOMEONE STEAL YOUR KILL WHEN YOU'RE DOING A FINISHING MOVE?!?!?!?!?! WHO THE FUCK COMES UP WITH THE DESIGN DECISIONS IN THIS GAME?!?!?!?!
If you're going to include a challenge for capturing 20 HQs, change it so that everyone on the HQ when it gets captured gets credit, not just the first person.
Dude, the challenges are so broken. My "Active" one doesn't stay active. This game is such a mess with these challenges. I was told to get 35 hipfire kills with a laser and it wouldn't work on the Bizon, but when I switched to the Kilo 141 it suddenly was tracking. It is so stupid.
Here's a couple of those Totino's codes for some in game stuff. 1st code entry gets you a calling card, 2nd gets you a watch, 3rd gets a box of steak knives.

Worst part is doing it in groundwar where squad can spawn on you and immediately kill them
Or even better
It doesn't count as combat and their squad spawns a few feet behind you immediately blasting you away 90% done with the animation
Both already redeemed. Thanks for the chance. Whoever took them should at least say thanks.
I had no idea where to redeem this then was too late. Thanks for your generosity.
I tried playing one of those co op missions....it's the worst gaming experience I've had in a while....who thought that that shit would be fun? Just endless waves of enemies spawning from all directions plus jugernauts all over the place which take thousands of bullets to take down...never touching that mode again...
FYI, if you want to give out codes to members specifically, there's a tag that makes them only readable in quotes, so lurkers can't take them.

You don't get credit at all for the initial capture. If you want to complete that challenge you have to allow it to get captured by the enemy team (fucking stupid, I know) and then your team needs to disable the headquarters from the enemy.
Got my first gun to max level (M4, level 71) and I originally had planned to go for gold camos, but seeing the mounted kills and kills after reloading (which is an absolutely stupidly tight window, I have like 3 on the M4) I don't think I'm going to bother. So now that prestiging is gone, I'm not bothering to chase the officer challenges because there's a handful I know I'm not going to be able to do because they're either BS or I'm not good enough, I.....sort of have nothing to aim for now? lol
I think this got posted a good ways back but I just watched this and holy shit I have never agreed with a video 100% as much as I do this one

Along with the 725 nerf they could probably stand to slow down the weapon switch speed on overkill weapons. I fought an entire team of people running shield and 725 and they were whipping those shotguns out in the blink of an eye, which is all you need to clear out anything standing vaguely in front of you with the 725.
There also needs to be an accuracy penalty for jumping and shooting. It feels as if jumping around corners and shooting has become the new drop shot. Maybe a penalty is already in place? not sure.
It's pretty amazing this still isn't a thing. I've gotten killed by dudes shooting me ADS while falling, so clearly actually being in the air has barely any effect on accuracy.
I'm torn. I hate corner hopping and general hopping within combat in a non-advanced movement game, but I also like being in a higher place and jumping down over a guy in a lower place and killing him on my way and that being a thing I can do.
I just finished the mission Hometown in the campaign, and so far I haven't seen anything that I find overly controversial? I thought the previews said that this was very controversial and the hard decisions and telling people apart etc? I think everything has been pretty straight forward?
Did they change anything before release or haven't I encountered it yet?
Also, I'm getting sick and tired of the 725 shotgun. It's a goddamn sniped at this point

Jump shotting is the only recourse against campers right now... so I hope not.
The campaign is just "fine" I feel, it doesn't do anything overly special and they make it way too obvious they are drawing heavy inspiration from other sources like Zero Dark Thirty, London Has Fallen and 13 Hours. The historical revisionism stuff was irresponsible but it isn't that big of a deal. It's briefly mentioned in a cutscene and is featured in a pretty bland sniper wave defense mission. Also the main antagonist is just a straight up cartoon villain with very little depth.
At this stage, I would be more impressed by a CoD campaign that actually dares to paint the western powers in a worse light instead of just blaming somebody else.
Curious about this patch. Yesterday I did a little Black Ops nostalgia ride playing 4, then 3 and 2. Other than the obscene amount of hacking going on in BO2 (I should probably not play it again because today's hacks can fuck up your stats real hard) they both aged pretty well.
Shepherd was not acting on instructions from his government, he was a rogue.
Maybe by the crowd who haven't seriously played the franchise since MW3.
To me at least, this is a step back, at the moment. Waiting to see if balancing and new maps turn that around.
It feels good to play, at least.
How can BO2 fuck up your stats? Just your BO2 stats or other games? If just BO2 I don't see why it would matter.
Just BO2, but it's a game I have weeks of multiplayer game time in alone (and who knows how many between Campaign, Zombies, private matches, replays, etc.), and I want to treasure those stats. There's all kinds of advanced hacking techniques in that game right now, just witnessed a replay from a match yesterday in which a dude had complete control of everything: not only he could activate all kinds of aimbots for him and any other player, he could even change other people's in-game stats, adding for example 500k extra deaths to someone (I'm just happy he did that shit to somebody else in that match, not me) or chaning their in-match score drastically. That hack even allows the user to kick others, ban people from the server (so no rejoin), or even freeze their console.
It's disgusting, and I legit fear playing that game again in multiplayer now. I have all kinds of stats, saved files and achievements I value in that game and despite the fact I don't play the game much at all nowadays I'd hate it so much if it was taken away from me. It's a bit like conserving an old save file on a classic console.
Patch Notes
Check below for the full list of patch notes.
Backend fixes to prevent crashes and improve stability across all platforms, include dev errors, and various performance fixes.
Fix for a few bugs where some streaks and Field Upgrades were able to be flown out of bounds without penalty. General out of bound fixes were also added.
Fix for a bug where a player being killed by an enemy with a Variable Zoom Scope would not see the zoom function in the killcam
Fix for the Semtex warning audio being heard at the same volume whether in a building or outside
In Headquarters, players were able to place a Tac Insert and respawn when their team owned the point. This has been fixed.
Fix for various collision issues across maps
Added UI that shows when XP events are active in playlists menus
Sprint and Tactical Sprint speeds are now back to speeds in Beta
Fix for a bug where the progress of the bomb defusal can be seen by the team that planted the bomb
Fix for a bug that revealed players to UAVs when they fired their weapons, even if they had Ghost and a silencer equipped
Fixed an issue where if multiple Personal Radars were active on a team, and are both marking the same enemy, only one player would see the enemy on their minimap.
RIOT SHIELD:
Fixed an issue where the throwing knife and Thermite weren't causing the shield to go on the player's back when thrown. We've also fixed the issue where explosive splash damage wasn't working consistently. We'll continue to tune the Riot Shield in future updates.
CLAYMORES:
Detonating an enemy claymore with bullets is now non-lethal when at full health. We've also reduced the trigger and damage radius and also reduced the damage width to better match the trigger width.
BATTLE CHATTER:
Removed the ability for enemies to hear when they've been called out by the opposing team. We also adjusted the enemy callouts so they are never from your Operator. Enemy callouts now use a more restricted cone at the hip and even more restricted in ADS when calculating whether or not to trigger. We'll continue to monitor this and make additional tweaks to Battle Chatter in future updates.
MOUNTING:
Slight increase to recoil while mounting.
PERKS:
E.O.D. now clamps damage to a non-lethal amount, assuming the player is at full health
LIGHTING:
Continued updates to player visibility in dark windows and dark areas.
FOOTSTEPS:
We've increased the occlusion percentage to filter footstep sounds behind geometry and adjusted the footstep volume at a distance. We have another large footstep change coming in the next update which will make crouch and ADS movement significantly quieter. Stay tuned!

Patch and Maps - just as you get into work.... whoop :/
Ah well, will be good to read all the impressions today, can't wait to get home and switch on :)
Edit - nice to see the return of the movement speed from the beta :)
Not going to continue to look through all the patch updates and comment on each one, but glad to see the lighting update also. And whilst I'm here, after this update to the ghost perk and silencers, how does this now work, stupid question I know, but have they merely 'fixed' an issue with the current Ghost perk, or 'updated' the ghost perk?

Seems they changed everything that needed change besides the spawns. Now time to see if those changes are enough.
Those patch notes are exactly the issues they needed to check, maybe sans the spawning (which to be fair, seems only bad in Picadilly for me). Great job, IW.
Erm, hate to link my own stuff since it might seem I'm self promoting, but here's what it meant: https://mp1st.com/news/modern-warfa...ayers-are-using-a-shotgun-like-a-sniper-rifle
And per weapon breakdown of it: https://mp1st.com/news/modern-warfare-recoil-for-weapons-detailed-for-standing-crouched-and-prone
fixed ghost, it seems firing with a suppressor was supposed to keep you hidden but it wasn't
OMG! This super big for me and I hope it works.
LIGHTING:
Continued updates to player visibility in dark windows and dark areas.

Honestly I was already destroying people with the MP5, with it buffed I don't know what I'm going to get.
Thought as much, wasn't sure from the way that it was messaged :) Sweet.
Nah this is cod it's an arcade shooter and jump shotting has always been a thing. Stop trying to turn cod into something it's not .
Jump shots are one of the few way to combat Johnny no thumbs sitting in a dark corner camping with a shotgun.
anyways
patch notes look great although footsteps should be silent when crouch walking. I don't know why we need to wait for another patch for that.
This is a good start though and thank god the movement from the beta is back.
