Regular MP is a blast, so is Blackout. It's a wonder to be able to play a BR game where the people I shoot don't respond by creating a tower. Haven't played a COD in years, loving this.

Coming from Fortnite though - having to be way more careful and methodical in how I approach combat. It'll take a bit to get used to.

It's crazy that I can play blackout exactly how I play PUBG (slow and methodical) and it still works. I didn't think the COD formula would let that work.

I guess Blackout perfectly shows the difference between CoD's century old engine and Battlefield's Frostbite.

I'm still impressed they managed to adapt their engine to that mode though.

I stopped playing COD when they introduced that god-forsaken double jump crap. I just picked this up and I suck. I don't know if I've just lost my ability to play or if the series got harder.
Everyone who plays now are pros. No one is truly a noob at cod anymore because most of its fan base grew up with the series and have their special controllers and whatnot. This game is very sweaty rn

For all the people saying the regular MP is pure trash, please elaborate. I hate it when people say something is trash and don't bother to explain why!

I checked out the metacritic scores and was shocked by how many people gave the game a 0. So stupid. 90% complained about no campaign, so I assume these people haven't even played the game. It's not like anyone was surprised by the lack of campaign when they bought it. It was very well known that it wouldn't have it. I also get the sense that a lot of people are trashing the game because they are getting stomped every game. I play cod every year and every year I completely suck when I first start playing. But I keep playing and get good, not great, but good.
There are a ton of great players out there and I'm old so I am aware that I'm going to get stomped some games. If you're really struggling, I highly suggest avoiding playing on weekends. I do much better on week days when the less sweaty players are playing lol.

It still baffles me how after the stellar Black Ops 3 and the systems it had that we launch another new game feature incomplete.

Things like specialist outfits were awesome but here we have nothing....
How do you get the uniforms some players have?


Since they limit the Blackout character challenges you should really unlock uniforms appearances for the defaults as you level up before the generic Blackout characters.

I love the standard MP, didn't play that beta (just the blackout one) feels great.

Getting about 20 ms input lag on my new TV even in game mode. Makes the game really floaty :/

Any advice?

I have noticed that something feels off as well. The beta felt pretty good to me but I am definitely noticing a the slight lag/floaty fealing you're describing. I wonder if they've sacrificed some input response time to push the visuals and frame rate for the final product?

As a few others have mentioned here, having OP killstreaks plus the specialists own Ultimates is too much. I have a dog chasing me and biting me in the face while a helicopter is annihilating the team from above.

I don't think the killstreaks are overpowered at all, I've got the attack chopper a few times and it does t go ham, now that damn dog is annoying, I'll give you that .

I don't know how you get different ones, i assume those with other outfits at the moment are ones with the specialist edition that came with stuff for the specialists, as there doesn't seem to be anyway to earn new items for them currently

Last night I was just playing Blackout matches, and I was getting destroyed so I was not having that much fun. Today, I decided to just stick to standard MP so I could get a good feel for the game and get some much needed practice in I am really glad that I did, because I feel like I can maybe hold my own in a Blackout match now.

I also don't really understand the hate for this game. As someone who has not played a COD game in a very very very long time, I think the game feels good. Sure, I have had a couple garbage spawns, but I can overlook that because no game is perfect. I'm just trying to get to the point where I can have a good loadout weapon and a nice sight.

I'm sorry but the multiplayer spawn in is complete garbage.


I just played a round of control where my team was spawn camped, and it gets out of hand when attack choppers and hailstorms are locking you in your spawn too.

The multiplayer in this is pretty crap imo

So I need to rant because I can' believe it's been 6 year since Blops 2 and we still can't get a new COD game with good connections that doesn't compensate for everyone's shit internet. Had a game earlier where every fire fight was utter nonsensen, got killed by someone that drop shotted me in the kill cam and was completely standing still on my screen when I died. Feels like I need 10 bullets to put people down and yet I get killed as I walk round a corner only to watch the kill cam and see something completely different and they never fucking fix it and I want to enjoy the game because I like so much else about it but it near enough ruins multiplayer.

Zombies and Blackout are good though

I feel sort of foolish not getting the special edition. The pass is like $66 + tax in Canada.

How is the PC version? Historically CoD has been pretty bad on PC but I'm thinking about picking it up on PC this time around. I'm just worried about lack of support and drastic playerbase decline like in the paat

Well The dog should not be a fucking ultimate. It should be a killstreak. Its too easy to get him and use him 3 times a match. He's also an instant kill if he bites you. Wtf. Atleast make it so he can drain your HP but you can fight him off. Also. Flame thrower guy. Why the fuck did they make that an ultimate and not a kill streak? It's too OP.

I think I've already played more of Black Ops 4 MP, than MW3, Blops 2, AW, Infinite Warfare, MWR and WW2 combined.
