I stopped playing 10v10 TDM a few days after release because I was so tired of spawning a mile away from the action on Aniyah Palace. Have things gotten any better in that regard? I can deal with the other maps but having to run to the palace for the first 30 seconds of every life is miserable.

Managed to fix the reboot loop issue on 1X. Annoying it happened but at least I can play now.

Anyone looking for an easy way to level up your HDR and ax50 on this dbl xp weekend? Just go to shoot house and hang out in the middle corridor on either end.

Yeah it's terrible. Yesterday I jumped on the wall with my pink Riot Shield to prevent their views. Four people sitting there doing jack shit about objectives lol

What level do I start getting parts to increase my ADS speed for the AK-47?

Also I am seeing people use the AUG today, is that a good gun when leveled up?

I know CoD matches tend to be wrapped up quickly but I wish there was a little more push from a loosing team to maybe even the odds. Getting triple capped and then having all the killstreaks raining down on you, does not make for an exciting match. Sure it's done quickly but maybe they could have elements to help the loosing team make up some ground and make it a bit more interesting.
nah fam. if you suck, you gonna get shit on. don't introduce mechanics that enable noobs to get free kills bc the game is already too noob-forward as it is

I cannot get my NAT open since the last update on PC. It is stuck on Moderate no matter what I do. I even tried disabling Windows Firewall and my router firewall just to see and it still was Moderate.

Late to the party, it's currently on sale so I might buy it for PC. How does it overall compare to Blops4 in terms of TTK and overall gunplay? I always preferred the Black Ops games to the insanely fast twitch based Infinity Ward games.

They tried that in MW2 with deathsteaks.

I think that's part of the allure of the game though. You have bad matches and get shit on, but should learn from what went wrong, at least on your end. If the game held your hand even more then that would be lame. As you stated, the games are short, so it's not too bad. Also, leaving games has such an inconsequential penalty, so if you feel like that lobby isn't working, just leave. Sometimes you get a bad string of games though and that does feel shitty.

Gunplay imo is fantastic and it's a lot less TTK. Like I'd say BOPS4 is probably 20times slower to kill someone in then MW

All I can play, is realism mode. It is just more satisfying when you get a kill. The different controller sensitivity adjustments are nice.

I guess that does make sense. I am a little more use to longer games where there is a little more struggle. I can understand how CoD wraps things up and gets you to move onto the next one.

It's a shit map, needs a bigger player count.

You know with double weapon XP and all you'd figure that you'd start to maybe, just maybe, see some people running something other than the M4 but apparently not. Says a lot about the state of the games balance.

I had co-worker laugh, because I use the FN Fal. Its a sniper worst enemy. I also use the M16A1 I believe its called. Three round burst is crazy when it comes to headshots.

so what's up with the AK and why does it lose every fire fight?

i finally unlocked it and like every new gun i bring it into the shoot house to test it out and get some easy weapon xp. It takes forever to ADS andI lose every 1 on 1 with it. I'm not comparing it to the m4 but i am comparing it to every other auto rifle in the game. Hell there are LMG's in the game that have a faster ADS. What is up with this thing?

You pretty much have to suffer with the thing until you unlock the last barrel attachment which has a barrel + underbarrel for 1 attachment slot and throw on the ADS stock + Grip + compensator for it to even compete IMO. If you don't get the first shot you auto lose unless you get a headshot because of the fire rate. Long range anybody with an M4 because of the AKs recoil will come out on top unless they're trash.

Best AK loadout IMO is Romanian barrel / Compensator / Skeleton Stock / Stippled Grip/ and whatever you want for the 5th attachment. Before you get the Romanian I used the RPK barrel / Compensator / Commando Foregrip / Skeleton Stock / Stippled. I feel like barrels add way too much to not use one and the Commando Foregrip + Compensator gives you the biggest recoil reduction that you can get on weapons. Also ignore the stats on the bottom because "Aim Stability" doesn't actually affect weapon accuracy or recoil at all.

No-stock and the green laser are the secret to the AK. That, and solid gun control. I don't bother with attachments that decrease mobility, so i can handle the recoil. It kills quicker than the M4 if you hit your shots

Is the menu laggy AF for anyone else on PC? You can see the frame rate plummet up and down and it lags me massively on Discord.

Can't even play because of these fucking service errors/issues. Shit just boots me back to the main screen after a match.

They tried with death streaks which were awful

Black Ops has specialists to even things up. They are done well in BO3 but are pretty awfully balanced in BO4. Nonetheless, they lower the skill gap/snowballing and are fun if you just forget about all the balance debates

The rumoured DLC perk didnt sound so bad:

You would steal the killstreak points of enemies you killed based on how far they were. For example

For ever 3 kills, you'd get 1 kill counted towards your own streak.

Kill a dude on a 9 killstreak and you'd get 3 kills counted towards your own streak

This is a pretty neat perk idea IMO

What's everyone's favourite GunFight map?

It's got to be Docks for me. It's a great setting and the routes are real fun

$38 on Gamestop for the PC version and no tax got me to finally pick this up. Haven't played CoD MP since Black Ops 3 (and I'm always terrible at CoD MP) and last campaign I played was Infinite Warfare (which I enjoyed), so looking forward to checking this out. Going to take a while download this on my crappy 30 mbps connection though lol.
