This annoyed me no end. All I played was classic domination. And now horrible Mosh pit. Won't pick up maps as a result

Yeah, don't get the logic behind it.They must know there is a lot of players don't like the exo stuff ,the classic modes made the game bearable..Only got it because it was relatively cheap (50E for both PS3 and PS4 versions) but I'm not forking out for the maps on top of that.If the next CoD has the exo stuff I will proabably avoid until.it is in the bargain bin before I will buy.

Was there plenty of people playing the classic mode? Strange they decided to remove it?

Saw lots of posts on other sites from mostly annoyed Americans'some even claimed they were in the process of getting their money back through their credit cards.Don't think that would fly here though ,credit card companies here re very reluctant to go down that road.

The removal of the classic game modes was the final straw and with Gamestop giving 50% extra on trade in over the weeekend I decided to trade AW and got €42 credit for it. Not bad considering I paid €50 for it.

I traded mine into cex and 50 credit . Bought it digitally then for 45

My nearest CEX is in Enniskillen and given the exchange rate at the minute and lack of PS4 games in it, it would be a bad move for me.
At least if I dont get a game in Gamestop I can go for a controller.

heroics

been really lucky with supply drops the last 2 weeks. Have most of the elites that I am looking for just need the insanity and the ASM1 speakeasy.

Really liking the mp11 goliath with advanced rifling and extended mags particularly on comeback. The ones I have and my thoughts below.

BAL inferno - Used for a couple of games over weekend. Now I keep a class with this in case other team is all running BAL/ASM1
ARX steelbite - Use this a good bit especially on longer maps
Mors The Doctor - Dont really snipe at all so not sure about this one
KF5 Breakneck - Seems to fire faster. not mad about this one. Like the Genuine with rapid fire more.
SN6 The third - Still not a great weapon very rarely use it.
SAC Pain and Suffering - Ok on soem maps like ascend and comeback in domination/hardpoint.
AMR9 Pro pipe - Haven't used it once
EM1 Pwner - I cant seem to kill anyone with this but everyone else seems to kill me in no time
XMG Bacon and Eggs - Dont use these unless I am really just messing around. K/D goes through floor
Ameli Whalehorn - Only got it last night so haven't tried yet
MP11 Goliath - Love this one. Use it all the time. Think it is my 5th or 6 most used weapon.

Anyone got the IMR elites? Any of them any use?

I have some elites, is there a way of getting them or is it just luck

Knifing is way to over powered in this game. Its ridiculous really

Just luck unfortunately. Seemed like I was never going to get good ones. kept getting mk14 and launcher elites etc.

Apparently they are introducing a way that you can work towards/earn the elites that you want but they have not given the details.

Big patch just dropped for AW. Best addition - ranked play now has probation - http://imgur.com/wdvLagq

The broadcaster mode has been improved, and the ASM1 nerfed. That's all I know for now. BAL is seemingly unchanged.

Snake Plisken

Seems to be classed as dlc so no PS4 patch until next month they did the same on MW3 10 extra prestiges added in a patch but the PS3 had to wait for a month to get it. This is a pain as technically it's not a dlc as its not a map pack extra weapon etc and for any ps4 players who are prestige masters or nearing top prestige it means we will have one month less of gameplay to reach prestige 30!

I see they havent released the patch notes of what weapons were re-balanced. Hopefully it is not the full month before it hits PS4 and just a week like the last patch

There's the patch notes, some pretty great stuff in it. So glad they've patched the problems with not spawning in and spawning without a gun.

The MK14 buff is one I'm looking forward to trying too. KF5 is meant to be good but I haven't tried it. Sentry guns now only take one melee hit.

Thats the last time I'll use the sentry gun so. It was already fairly weak as a scorestreak. I seem to get very few kills with it even when using 360 and AI (Cant remember the name of the module)

Screaming Monkey

has anyone on the Xbox360 got the new OHM Werewolf variant ?.
Might be a bug, but when i use it, displays as an AE4 with grenade launcher option instead of shotgun, and glitches when i shoot it for a bit, probably broken reload animation, the lads need todo better beta testing, the normal OHM option is fine

Was Masters in season 1. Went on about 2 weeks after it ended and still had no exo, played a few games and was in Diamond. Went back on today and received my Diamond exo for season 2 but no Masters for season 1...brilliant

I logged on for the first time in a couple of weeks and my exo was there for me

Trying to get the "dog fight" medals is excruciatingly painful 😕😕

Anyone know at what stage the dlc maps become part of the normal playlists? Sick of playing s&d.

I feel your pain extremely hard to get that challenge, I would recommend playing hardcore KC and on Maps like solar hold back and watch guys jumping on to the high roof overlooking the pool and jump after them

Yeah it does although I'm trying to do the SMG's for the royalty camo but I think that's going to be pretty difficult with those akimbo ones!
I would think a scuf controller might help as you can jump aim and shoot all at the same time!

Where the hell is the patch for the ps4? Can't see Sony holding it up this long for certification

Completed the campaign today. Have to say I thoroughly enjoyed it. Bit on the short side and easy but overall really good. Along with the mp it's a great game

That's cool, I don't think I've completed any COD campaigns since MW2. I really ought to give the AW campaign a proper try.

Anybody here going to G4 in Dublin on 21st of March? Thinking of going as a spectator. Allegedly the biggest e-sports event in Ireland, features Lol, SC2 and COD.
