    Its brutally slow, took 15 hours to download for me on a fibre connection.
    Its like they're actively trying to make me dislike the game.

    Fibre here also - I went off for dinner to leave it download. Came back to 3% so I went out the the pub and came back 3 hours later to find it at 55%

    I might not even get to play it tonight at that rate

    yeah, I'm the same, Its on until sunday night I think so i'll suss it out at some stage.

    TBH, I'm only downloading it to see if I like it or not, the last two games have done nothing for me, so if this is more of the same, I'll be keeping my money in my pocket. Its a gas state of affairs when BLOPS2 is the most requested backwards compatible game, just goes to show how good it actually is.

    I know what you mean. Ghosts and AW may as well never have happened

    I'm on now if anyone fancies a few games


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,988 ✭✭✭Stone Deaf 4evr


    well, after my first taste of that last night, I reckon I won't be buying, I'll give it another chance over the weekend but I cant see my mind being changed.

    What didn't you like about it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,988 ✭✭✭Stone Deaf 4evr


    What didn't you like about it?

    I was hoping for a step back from wallrunning, double jumping, boosting, and all that craic, and a return to something more like The original Modern Warfare.

    The likes of titanfall and destiny do that "enhanced mobility" do that stuff better imo, and it fits in better with their lore.

    I just find the whole thing overly chaotic, as the other team can come at you from practically any direction. If the time to kill was higher it might not be a problem, but it still feels like whoever gets the first shot off is always going to come out on top.

    I'll give it another chance over the weekend but it's coming off as too close to Advanced Warfare for my liking.

    Yeah I was a bit disappointed myself with the decision they made to go down the AW route in terms of movement etc., seems to be restricted to certain areas of the map though opposed to AW. I thought the maps in the beta had a much better flow to them compared to the maps in AW. To be honest I'm not too sold on it myself either at this stage.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,277 ✭✭✭x43r0


    I'm not a fan of the movement stuff either but what I will say is they have toned it down a good bit. I find it a lot more manageable in this game

    What bugs me the most at the moment (and it could just be the learning curve) is the time to kill. If a guy sees me first I don't have a chance

    The hit detection looks spot on though from the couple of hours I've played

    What will make the game annoying for a lot of people early on will be figuring out the spawns. This is what gets you killed from all directions. My advice is just avoid TDM until you're more familiar with the maps. I almost gave up on the game but switched over to DOM and found it much more enjoyable as I wasn't getting shot in the back anymore

    The spawns and the connection were the two things I was trying to get a feel for but I didn't really get enough time on it to make a proper judgement on them, the connection was impossible to judge anyway because its a beta.

    Are you on ps4 eamonn? the menu in the xb1 beta has a ping / connection counter - I was getting a solid enough 26ms, thats very good, its on a level with titanfall which was using the microsoft dedicated servers.

    I've played one game, TDM and didn't find it bad at all. Granted I was in a party with Seridsand and Eamonn at the time on the 360 playing blops2 so had no sound but didn't think the spawns or the map was bad. You can't boost jump across the map in 5 seconds like AW and it's a treyarch game so the hit detection is going to be ropey at best when you factor in lag comp. You should die if someone gets shots on you first and they keep them on target. Blops 1 is bullsh*t for getting the first shots but the view kick when they fire back making you lose the gunfight even though you should have the advantage. Without a toughness perk the first to shoot should be winning the gunfight the majority of the time.
