    I think there's more people playing blops2 worldwide now that there is ghosts, and that's despite ghosts being on sale every second weekend.

    For all the issues blops2 had, it's imo the best cod.

    Considering getting this, really liked blops 2 but moved and feeling the COD itch again and don't know whether to get this or go back to blops. I presume this one's more like MW3 than blops though? Can anyone give a rounded quick review?

    Going back to Blops would be my advice too, all the criticism ghosts is getting is completely justified, the game is a disaster.

    Optic lost 3-0 to TCM from the UK, basically got single-handedly destroyed by Jurd. Puts them into the hard side of the draw. They are currently playing TK in the first knock-out round, about to win the first map. If they can beat them, they'll play the winner of Nv and Strictly Business. Bit of a nightmare morning for Optic. TCM on the other hand have made things easy for themselves. Great chance of making tomorrow's semi-finals.

    Not enjoying the stream set-up at all. No atmosphere at the venue, invited Youtube personalities only, no real fans.

    Optic somehow managed to beat TK 3-0, so they will play sB to be in top 6. TK play Envy in the loser's bracket.

    Just found out Jurd is Irish. Worth watching the video of him against Optic on Sovereign S&D, he absolutely destroyed Scump in particular. Went 17-5 I think.

    optic beating sb 1-0 so far
    pretty good game
    think they are very capable of winning this competition but complexitiy look very strong

    Up 2-0 now, it would be wild if they 3-0'd sB now. Clayster and Mboze have really improved since the Epsilon game this morning, Clayster really looked lethargic. Now he's hyping up the team and it's really working out. I think if they win this they have a relatively easy game against the winner of Rise Nation and T1 dotters.

    Epsilon v Faze has been good so far, need Epsilon to go through, by far the best European team imo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,527 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    Wow, Optic win the last S&D to beat sB 3-2. Honestly I thought it was over when Clay and Nade were arguing at half-time in the second domination. Very impressed they stopped the rot just in time. Scumpii and Clay going bananas now.

    Rise Nation next I believe?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,527 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    Wow, just saw Epsilon have gone out into the loser's bracket, will play the winner of tK and nV. Think sB will play the winner of that game? Minefield.

    Australia's T1 dotters have knocked out Rise Nation, so they face Optic for a place in the top 3. Should Optic beat them, as expected, they face the winner of Faze and coL tomorrow. After that, it's the championship game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,792 ✭✭✭2Mad2BeMad


    Can see optic taking t1 dotters 3-1 my predictions :P, faze and col is probably the better match out of the two too watch imo, faze are a great team but col have been on fire this tournament
    think they only dropped 1 map overall and that was in the pools

    Seen the hardened edition for 50 bucks today, the same as blops 2 so went for it. Will report on how annoyed I am in the near future no doubt :)

    Edit: :( why did I bother...

    Epsilon choked a 2-0 map lead against nV. Ended up 2-2 in maps, 5-5 in SnD, and they lost the last round. Dreadful way to go out :(

    Optic putting up a decent fight against coL in the winners bracket final, currently 1-1. They just won 11th round of S&D with a surprise rush offense.

    Holy ****balls, Optic are leading the first side of the Blitz. There's noooo way they can win blitz warhawk against coL. Their worst gametype and worst map. Madness


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,527 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    Brace yourself, the internet will break if Optic can close this off. They did win that blitz, and won the first side of domination by 18

    Edit: Argh, coL have levelled it. Search and Destroy will decide it.

    Much prefer the lads in Col then Optic, they pulled it out of the bag on the final S&D, what times the final?

    Think it's midnight but not certain, if I find the right time I'll post it here. I like Teepee and Crimsix just fine, but Karma and Aches are easily my two least favourite people in the pro scene. They're all unbelievable players though, they just seem invincible sometimes.

    Yeah I was watching on the race to prestige Master 10 when the game came out and just took to them as they where dissing how bad the game was for levelling up! That's a big money prize the winner gets so should be a good final.

    Yeah it actually should be, considering coL appear to have some weaknesses this tournament.

    It's just occured to me how much of an achievement it is for the non-US teams it is to finish so highly this year. Whatever about it being the first champs on Ghosts, it's the first champs on Xbox One. Even some top USA teams haven't played much on the One (Curse Ny in particular), so I can't imagine all the players on Epsilon and T1 dotters have had much practice either. Amazing that this is the year where these teams really make US teams sit up and take notice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,527 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    Optic have run out of steam. Great tournament for them all the same, particularly for Nadeshot. IMO he's been their best player.

    Championship final starts in 40 minutes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,417 ✭✭✭✭Snake Plisken


    Thanks I'll be tuning in for that!


  • Posts: 12,836 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I quite like Merk so I'll be hoping for an nV win, shocking results from the European teams.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,527 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    I would have supported Envy for it, except for Merk's comments after the game. Still sore about getting dropped clearly. I'd actually rather see Complexity win it now, I wouldn't like Envy to be the team to break their dominance. Studyy talks way too much sh*te as well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,527 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    Final is still a few minutes away, teams aren't on-stage yet. Best COD players in the world about to go head to head :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,527 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    Teams going on-stage now. Ok I've swung back, seeing Aches's promo video really makes me want to see him lose. Let's go Envy


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,527 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    Rambo was 0-10 there. I've seen him do well today too, but seriously, he's so inconsistent. Very limited gun-skill.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,417 ✭✭✭✭Snake Plisken


    pretty one sided final there Complexity by far the better team!

    I thought his comments were bang on. He should never have been dropped, hes a much better player than lameshot and mboze. He has all the right in the world to gloat over it.
