played a lot with my brother and it's hilarious as we're two very different type of players. if he goes down, i'll make a beeline for him running through a hail of bullets, crashing through doors and windows in a doomed attempt to get him up. If I go down he uses my crawling body as a distraction to make his escape.

there's a five second window when i die that i really want to kill him. i've always been a healer / reviver in games even when it's not the play. can't train it out of me or into him.

first game we won we were playing with a random and near the end the random went down in a ridiculous spot nowhere near cover. went out got him up (3 times on our way back to cover) and then he got killed a few minutes later. 99/100 that would have been the end of us but can't help myself

Theres nothing quite like the rage I feel building, when I've been killed, and my teammate keeps looting away even though he's gathered enough to buy me back.

worse still, is when they do it when you'd have time to grab your loadout or collect your gear from where you died, but they faff around for so long, the gas pushes in. - also, just to add, this is a regular friend, not a rando!

for me, any time a teammate goes down, the first priority is to get them back unless its definitely not achievable or too late game.

Back into playing warzone. Only issue is the lack of comms with randomers.. or if they are on comms its roaring in Italian..

I hate that whenever I engage out in the open and am getting the upper hand there's always some f**king tree, rock or unusual random object for the other dude to hide behind, whereas when I'm in trouble, nada just miles and miles of open plains.

I do get that thing of inconsistency of damage. I just put it down to connection and my bad reflexes

So i downloaded Black Ops free trial and tried the MP, it was grand. Uninstalled it and installed Warzone instead. Turns out i never actually played out and i was remembering modern warfare multiplayer.

I only did the tutorial for the battle royale mode but was a good laugh, looking forward to giving it a proper go especially with a squad as I'm usually shyte solo.

Any tips for battle royale other than stay inside in white circle? Is it important to do contracts or is that just to boost your player with money/gear?

Have your loadouts ready. Buy plates and UAVs whenever you can. Supply Runs aren't worth much in solos. Always carry a self revive.

I never worry about self revive, in solos particularly chances are you'll be finished off. It is useful if you're killed from afar. Definitely have your loadouts ready with the ones you need at the top or bottom so you can get them quick. Know which guns are good and you can do well with.

I always run Ghost and EOD. I'll generally run Shrapnel as I'm a d**khead with claymores but amped is probably the better option especially if running a launcher.

There's no real golden rules (except possibly loadouts are life), find what you like and do well with. My brother swears by smoke grenades and High Alert but I can't stand them. What works for someone may not be necessarily for you. I love the VAL and have done well with it but can't kill anyone if they're 30 feet away.

Scavanger is good for money to get loadouts early, Bounties if you're good and Recon can give you a huge advantage if you do 3-4 of them. They are risk and reward but are worth doing without obsessing about them. The more you do the bigger the bonus you get on completion.

Solos can be very intense, I find it hard to play a lot of them consecutively. It does get more campy the less grouped up people are. Quads for instance is the least campy.

Try find an area you like dropping in (not superstore) to get used to it, the local layout, where things are and once you know it move on.

I found BR's very daunting but Warzone almost immediately accessible and fun. You'll be at a disadvantage as people have been playing it for a year. Don't stress out if things aren't going well (says someone who flips out when he's killed), eventually SBMM will take care of you.

the frustration factor is significantly multiplied when playing with randoms.
Expect
- people screaming at you in strange languages
- silence
- bleeding out and team mates running past you
- unfair criticism
- people doing their own thing and being all over the map
- people quitting mid game when something goes wrong
and it's much worse with randoms

I've got to final circles with randoms, won some minis and won some with randoms in the party but it's the roll of a dice. You really need a party, although it does add to the tension as you don't want to screw up.

the thing about loadouts is they not only gives you your guns with all the attachments but your perks like Ghost which is important.

Gun attachments are incredibly important in WZ as you are getting huge boosts to range, accuracy, mag size and stability. Some guns also really benefit from scopes. The x3 scope on ARs can be fantastic although it hurts at close range. You need to put monolithic suppressors on just about everything as it boosts range and keeps you off the map when firing. The only time you don't want it is probably on anything with an integral mono barrel - certainly this is the case with the mp5

Ghost will keep you off UAVs and Heartbeat sensors. Lot of people will have something else in the first loadout but look to get a second one to pick it up.

Once you have your loadout you feel invincible, you're not but it sure feels like it.

When you have floor loot and your team gets wiped out someone will often say "Well they had their loadouts" as if this makes everything ok.

If you pick up a gun off the floor every mission completed or kill you get will go towards ranking it up. Missions give big weapon xp. You have to have the gun in your hand as the mission completes. Plunder is really good for this but otherwise quite dull. Generally I'd look to rank up guns in shipment if possible but anytime you use a gun in mp or WZ you are gaining xp.

Won a game Of Quad resurgence yesterday. Delighted. First time I've had a good team with decent comms, held the prison roof from the start and went on to win.

Now a question about loadouts. I like to run coldblooded and ghost, so a sniper rifle + rocket combo. Say I pick up a gun, eg an MAC 10, in place of my rocket, do I lose the ghost?

You only lose perks if you die after collecting your load out.

Sniper rifle and rocket combo is an odd one for resurgence, but you got the win, so that's that I suppose!

ah, twas Warzone that I was running around with the perks.
Reason I asked, I was playing WZ the other day and had my first loadout with coldblooded and overkill. Later in the round I picked up my ghost loadout and repicked my AR+SMG combo.
Died not soon after and on the deathcam the guy who killed me pinged me up on the heartrate monitor. Which since I was then running CB+Ghost I thought was mighty strange.

I normally buy a loadout with overkill and then grab the freebie with ghost, but then pick up my sniper rifle again.
If I can another loadout later in the game with overkill, are you saying I don't lose Ghost? Always thought I did.

I said a while ago my brother never revives me. I take the p*** out of him about it but don't really care as he's better playing his own game. Had a terrible session yesterday was all over the place.
Brother gets killed and wipes in gulag. I'm playing dreadful, bounty goes on me. I'm so annoyed I pick up a most wanted. Hold out and kill a team (for some reason I've picked up my loadout mp5), bro back in. I've robbed a cp from the team, throw it and brother gets it. I have five kills and he has one.
Rotate out into the closing circles. Epic fights, get brother up again. I go down gas closes on me. I'm screaming at him to run away. He kills the guy and through the green goo comes to get me up. Unbelievable revive. We get out.
I go down again and crawl to the guy who killed me to mark him, brother kills him and gets me up again. We're 2v1 and I'm not kidding we just knew we were winning. Ended up with 5 (lots of assists) kills and brother had 9.
I just love this game.

Question. Why do people get a load out and then when the new one spawns, go get it again, even with no kills?

Maybe they're getting their second class with ghost on it?

Won two games of rebirth in quads today. 1st with a good squad.
2nd had 3 italian lads, one of them d/c'd after a few minutes and then the other two left.
There was still maybe 20 still alive. Said I'd see what would happen, stayed on the outer circle and won! Delighted.

Are people here still experiencing hackers in game? On rebirth resurgence and every second lobby seems to have them.

Read the post and thought 'it's been a while' then parachuted into a game with a completely blatant aimbotter. 28 kills. At first he shot me out of a Bertha, snapping to me as soon as I was downed. I parachuted back in and we were the final two, he just chewed me through a wall from about 200m.

Shame.

Anyone struggling to get on today? Fetching Online Profile for me all afternoon.

Xbox by any chance? Same for me earlier but seems to have sorted itself now (no issues listed on the xbox website)

I really hate how the Blops stuff dominates. I actually don't really like the Ffar, although will use the Aug/M16. On reflection the DMR may have been the most ridiculous gun ever to be intentionally introduced into an online shooter, before it was nerfed.

yeah that's the way I feel, I have no issue playing with OP guns but something about the ffar feels off

its basically aug+ffar deaths these days. The King of the hill they had last week was madness. getting Aug'd from everywhere. I was just using the mode to gain xp on different weapons. Didnt see the point of just blapping people with an aug all week long.

Also seen my first obvious cheater in that mode. left the map and restarted and he was in the next one too!

Had a really nice win in BR trios last night with two of the lads, we dropped at train station and got lucky cause that's where the circle finished but it also meant that things were hectic from the get go. Finished with 21 kills between us (10, 8 and 3) and it was a lot of fun. Very few feelings more satisfying than a Warzone win!

What is the quickest way to rank up a Mac 10 in Warzone if you don't own Cold War?

No squad fill and land on the train and keep doing the recon contract with the Mac 10 selected when the contract ends.

Also check to see if you’ve got any double weapon xp tokens.

In plunder obviously.

Just got (what I think) is my first 0 'damage taken' win in a solo.

Got 6 kills, and dealt out 2,400 damage. But was never hit!

man the FFAR is filthy. So many people running it with the Aug. You almost have to use the set up.
