    I find some of these YouTubers overly critical of the game, he was on moaning about MW as well a few days back and I'm tired of hearing them all complain about SBMM, I played about two hours of this yesterday and found it to be fine certainly better then Black Ops 4. It does feel a bit like MW but then again I like MW. These YouTubers are living in the past thinking there are loads of Noobs playing when in fact most players will watch youtube to get best loadouts guns and tactics to improve at the game.

    I just downloaded it there and tbh first 2 games were really hard to play. Felt really bad for lag.

    I’m on a PS4 wired connection. If I run a Speedtest from the same connection as the PS4 on my laptop I’m getting ping <4ms and >500/200 down/up so it’s not my connection. Nat is open etc.

    Anyone else find the movement really choppy or something. I find it hard to describe but it messes with my eyes nearly like I feel sea sick. Weird I know.

    Actually it was only combined arms. Normal modes played much better

    Cancelled my pre order for this, I thought the alpha was **** but the beta hasn’t improved anything at all. It just feels **** to play and I don’t understand these you tubers fawning over it - it’s patethic on every level compared to MW. I’d only buy it at this point for the campaign and that’s a stretch if it wasn’t around 30quid which it won’t drop to- this is another Ghosts in the making.

    youtubers always wax lyrical about the next COD, every, damn, time.Even if they're not being paid it is financially in their interest to get as many people to buy it so they'll watch them, stream

    I find if I can hold out for the first two weeks I can resist. I think with Warzone coming to this though, I'm doomed.

    I don’t feel the same, if MW has more seasons coming then I’m not going anywhere especially not to a cheap imitation of it. The only reason I would purchase CW as of now is the campaign and they are about 10 years too late for that.

    The beta is grating me a bit now. Its playing better than the alpha.... but

    UAV spam.
    Quick scoping spam.
    Grenade spam.
    Controls dont feel great.
    The game engine isn't as good as Modern warfare.


    At this stage I just hope the campaign is good.

    If you have it on PS4 should still work this weekend. Probably be a small update to enable it tomorrow

    I wonder if they tweaked something with the SBMM for this weekend? Played for 90 minutes earlier and did pretty well in each match but it was a good challenge mixed with some easy kills. If I performed the same in modern warfare I’d be getting stomped for a few games after :D

    Wish I was finding it the same tbh. Unless I’m using the mp5 which I’ve levelled up I’m getting sh1t on in every gunfight. Tried to make classes with the other weapons and just seem to be getting outgunned every time. Some games just feel really laggy and then you get a game where it’s like your connection is godlike!!

    Actually played for 90mins now and I’m so p1ssed off I had to turn it off. MW never irritated me that much. Every game is an absolute sweat fest. Can’t get streaks. My team always seems to be made up of Timmy no thumbs playing with his feet or something because as bad as I’m doing I still finish top 2 of my team but as a team we are getting murdered. Absolutely no fun at all

    hadn't played COD for a few years up until MW2019 so hadn't been paying a lot of attention.
    Blops CW is getting a lot of hate online, the negativity is everywhere. I think this is just part of COD. Wasn't the Ghosts trailer the most disliked youtube video at one time? There's generally a feelgood factor bump following launch but there's a lot working against this one at the moment
    - sbmm (which I'm for)
    - lag
    - looks
    - animations

    It just seems rushed

    i think the lag is because its a beta tehy test it out on other servers and not the main ones they will use for the game

    SBMM is just youtubers crying that they cant "pub stomp" to look good in their videos :pac:

    i think the game looks great and plays quite well myself,

    I hated the Alpha, hated the beta last week but gave it a fair shot last night and...it's not bad. Can't say I'll be rushing out to buy it on release day but might give it a look when the price drops at some stage. It feels clunky compared to MW and I'm getting caught trying to mount or burst through doors that don't open :D Saying that the SBMM has me intrigued - it was definitely not there for me last night and I got some ridiculous games in Miami/Moscow with 9.0 KD, 12-27 kills etc which didn't affect the subsequent games (there was a mix of clear first time players staring at walls, and obviously seasoned vets bunny hopping through windows and killing me). I'll probably log in later now and get melted for an hour straight for saying that but something definitely felt different about it compared to the likes of MW where 1 good game will **** your night up.

    Hows the Beta compared to the Alpha?

    Alpha completely turned me off the game, guns were too cartoony for me.

    I am right in that you can’t download the beta until tomorrow if you didn’t pre order and are playing on Xbox?

    Got a beta code from one of the drops streams for PC, game is okay but i wont be buying.
    I had high hopes when i heard TTK is slower which it is but so many other things i really dont like.
    If MW had this TTK it would be golden.

    I'm convinced the Dirty Bomb game mode is a glimpse into a new Warzone map for Cold War,reminds me a lot of Blackout too!
