Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 |OT| Late to the party

What is everyone's thoughts on the KN-57 in regular MP? Anyone having any luck with it? I love the look and feel of it but my experience with it has been hit marker central. I was grinding to unlock rapidfire to see if that would help, but I'm struggling so hard with it that I've given up. What's your thoughts?

I've been going for diamond ARs, and the AK has been the 2nd to last i've used. It's pretty good with a red dot, grip, quickdraw and stock or rapid fire with quickdraw, hybrid mags, grip, and stock. I'm using the maddox and like it better atm, but the AK is still a good mid-long range gun imo. Least powerful of the bunch tho, i'd probably go VEPR - ICR - Rampart - Maddox - AK.

Feel like I peaked yesterday with a 13 kill Blackout win. The Outlaw destroys and is my favorite sniper.
When are they going to fix the broken looting on Xbox? Countless times i've had the scroll menu simply refuse to scroll through items and have even died a few times due to taking too long to loot. Very very frustrating.

Xclash said:

Haven't had many games with it but I feel it's the worst of the ARs right now. All the other AR does something better, ICR is a laser, Rampart does more damage, VARP handles better and the Maddox is better overall right now. I still take the KN over most SMGs but yea I'll do the camos and be done with it.

It's definitely the worst AR I've tried in the game. Something needs buffed on it to make it viable. It's cool that it has so many attachments to choose from, but the base damage and fire rate really seem to hold it back.

Yea why this is missing is fucking beyond me. It's like they punish you for not knowing 4 sweaty nerds to invite by teaming you up against 4 sweaty nerds.

While playing on Icebreaker or whatever it's called I gravity slammed that possible dog it was a direct impact as well.

I can't believe people are actually asking for and looking forward to lootboxes. Jesus.

I want to spend those 2000 cod points I was promised!

Does anyone else find that killing more than one person rushing at one time is almost impossible. It was never that hard in previous CODs. They will be straight lined up for me and I will get about 10 hit markers and go down. This has happened multiple times.

Oh lord, I forgot they even gave us those.

Wasn't it rumored that there were no more supply drops? Its supposed to be like fortnite where you can pick and choose what to buy

Decent stats for solo Blackout, having so much fun with the mode. Really surprised by how few perks people keep with them to the end game. Most people have no perks at all.

Things I'm waiting for now:

• Leaderboards, which should be this week according to Treyarch
• Supply Drops
• And all the League Play stuff in December

Finally unlocked the Maddox. The most gun I got destroyed with. Now it's my time!

I really encounter people using the Maddox. It's a pretty great but I remember it being better in the beta. I prefer the VAPR in the current build.

So flanking is the most important thing right?

ara said:

Hah, played a round of hipfire-Spitfire Kill Confirmed against a team of snipers. Fun and easy! A few did get a fairly ridiculous quickscope kill on me.

I wonder if they'll ever get rid of the quickscope nonsense in these games.

Its the most nonsensical shit in this game. Its fore the Youtube montage community and nothing else!

Last 10-15 games been switching between the VAPR and Maddox. Got bored from the ICR

Remember the fun that was Crossfire?

Yea, I loved it in the beta but don't use it in the main game.

Someone asked about the KN and I think it's pretty good with the right attachments.

Working on camos for the launcher. Where are the people using sentries/mantis?!?! Come on out! Lol.

I'm also looking forward to supply drops. I like earning credits during a game and using them to open boxes. My OCD wants all the calling cards, lol. I understand the complaints, especially when they add weapons into it, but I never got upset about it. If it's in, cool. If not, cool.

If there are no supply drops, what would we use our COD points on? I would actually like to use those points towards buying their battle pass, if possible.

I wish they'd show the class that was used for the best play replay. I think they show this info during killcams, but I barely watch killcams anymore.

The wingsuit in blackout is fucking terrible. Died some many times because of it.

Hah, always freaks me out when I see folks with a ton of wins and multiple kills per game.

I'm absolutely in the "hide in the toilets, happy as Larry if I get 1 kill and top 10 finish" camp. Love BR as a concept and think Blackout is the best one I've played, but I've come to terms with the fact I might never win one.

I've been starting to average about 5 kills per round of solo Blackout. Still only have 1 win. But I play in duos or squads with friends usually.

So what does the Primary Operator Mod for the Titan even do?

Besides the day of dead looking skins(season pass I think), is there any you earn in game and how?

Not really. Spawns are so unpredictable that I don't even think flanking is an options. I've seen spawns flip 2-3 times at the beginning of a match.

Flip sides or just locations, this is something I am confused about. It never flips sides right?

I meant the side that you spawn on. I spawned on one side with my team. Got killed a few seconds later, spawned on the OPPOSITE side, got killed by an enemy that was 2 feet away from me, and then I spawned BACK on the other side I started on

Its just silly lol

That shit is such a leap of faith. I only do it in team games (or maybe pure desperation) at this point so I have someone to revive me, lol.

Yes, this has happened to me a few times. :( I didn't understand what was happening.

The side of the map that you spawn on will flip throughout the match. Basically, teams will spawn in the beginning, run like a bunch of yahoos to the other end of the map and engage. The spawns seem to flip based on the proximity of the opposing team to your own spawn point. I THINK it's meant to counter spawn camping, but it introduces another set of problems while doing that. Personally, I'm fine with the flipping. Spawning right in front of an enemy every so often is not as bad as the enemy team just camping at the spawn and destroying you.

My favorite and I should have recorded this is I kill two people with a hellstorm. I use my lightning strike and the people that I killed the hellstorm with spawn in the same area I'm at.

Yes I have experienced this in the worst way. A lot.

Just got the game. About 4 hours or so to finish the big update. Is there any loot boxes or supply drops in the game to get different skins and weapons? Or is it like fortnite with a battle pass and we buy what we want individually for multiplayer?

are guns behaving differently in blackout than in mp? i can hardly hit anything in blackout...

They need a playlist with Dom, TDM, and KC. Also a ground war playlist (7v7 or 8v8) and a mercenary playlist.

It seems this way to me, too. The gunplay feels tweaked compared to the multiplayer. If I go from one to another, I'm quickly put in my place the first couple of rounds. lol

I can't say for sure but it feels that way.

The only thing that seems fairly consistent for me between both is the Auger

It doesn't really feel like the guns themselves to me though, just the way the game handles is different. I guess that's expected but it means I'm usually far more proficient at the MP than I am in blackout.

The guns have bulletdrop in Blackout, this prevents people shooting you across the map. The guns are hitscan in MP and Zombies.

came in 2nd in Blackout for the third time -.- i feel like i am never gonna win

Dralos said:

Yes, there is more bullet spread as well as every weapon fires projectile bullets instead of being hit-scan. So you have to adjust for bullet travel and drop. Lead shots for far away targets and sometimes aim up a little higher for longer range targets.

Not sure if worth a new thread, but those who are annoyed at being shot by people who "see" them first? Yeah, it's legit and there's video proof. https://mp1st.com/news/call-of-duty...is-video-shows-why-advanced-peeking-in-action

I always get this. For some reason, when I check killcams, I see enemies already targeting me or something and it drives me insane. I always check if there's a sensor dart, vision pulse or something, but nada.

Lol I can't name my Titan custom loadout "Titan" because of profanity.

oh i thought they got rid of hitscan too in MP.
i was wondering cause i am an average player in MP but i suck so much in Blackout.

That's because it's locked until like level 48.

Just won my first solo game. VAPR with a silencer is my favorite combination.

I need to stop playing Kill Confirmed, matches seem to move at a crawl due to nobody picking up tags and a lot of people just camping near spawns.

I fucking knew it! I was worried I was just making excuses for poor gun play but something about this game felt off.

Not related to this issue but I swear I'll have tracer rounds go through enemies without getting a hit marker as well.

Can't believe it...I played this mode pretty much exclusively up to this point and surprised at how many people don't pick up tags. This stuff is exactly why I don't want to play these games much anymore
