    Just finished the campaign. It was respectable but not a patch on COD4 or MW2. I actually think Infinite Warfare had a better campaign too, didn't really give a crap about anyone in this one, and the big bad Russian aspect was way overdone, almost comical.

    Have to agree with you there, found it lacking in proper story telling myself. But it was enjoyable. Very disappointed with the mansion / hostage mission, had to shoot every light out and that bastard providing overwatch never shot a thing!

    Booted up today for the first time in a week or so. Game is constantly crashing out to desktop mid match. ****ing joke

    I borrowed a PS4 for a few days, where's the cheapest place to buy this game ? I'm only interested in playing the offline single player mode.

    Nice :D Love the VTOL, I'll let it clean up one area while I run to another and call it to guard me, non stop kills popping on screen

    Killchain perk / Cruise missile / VTOL / Choppy gunner is my current setup.

    Anyone try Support Helo yet? Being a higher reward i would imagine it performs better than VTOL which is already insane.

    Robbed a care package and it was the reward, many many kills with it think it is 4 rockets to take it down.

    As soon as I hear vtol or chopper inbound swap to pkm and cold blooded. Takes down a vtol and still leaves about 40 bullets

    Rockets are a waste of time

    Ditto. For whatever reason, people seem to ignore kill streaks in this cod. A vtol shouldnt get one kill after its initial bombing run if as little as two people focus it down.

    But it takes a brave man to run outside and try to take it down :D if I hear cruise missile, chopper gunner, or vtol inbound I’m camping the **** of an indoor area until it’s gone!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,764 ✭✭✭One More Toy


    What I'm fed up of is not getting rewarded for seizing an objective.

    In ghosts domination for example a capture counted a little towards your kill streak

    I always play the objective and usually end up last in the table

    You can easily avoid being hit by a vtol while still shooting at it, if you go close to a high enough building (2 story) and shoot the nose. If you time this correctly it will just shoot you while the bullets hit the roof or cover. A riot is immune also!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 421 ✭✭HorrorScope


    Just had a very weird experience here - how does someone turn around and kill you when you are mid execution????

    I just run cold blooded on my lmg class and stay close to buildings

    Shot down 2 vtols and a chopper gunner on shoot house in a single game last night. Only killed by the enemy as the map is so small not the streaks

    You were probably shot by his teammate, worst mechanic of the game. The only thing that tops it is having one of your teammates steal the takedown by shooting the person. It should be like BF were once you go for their tags you are not killed until the animation finishes and when you execute the move nobody can steal the kill. The animation is way off on some of the moves also, there's one or two of them were you stand there like a prick for about a second.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,365 ✭✭✭Homelander


    It works that way in a lot of other games that have executions, personally think it's the best system. Remember it very fondly from Halo Reach, where half the time someone would rob your kill mid-execution. If you want a risk-free situation, don't do an execution unless you're sure you're safe, that's the point.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,878 ✭✭✭heroics


    Does anyone actually like headquarters. The respawn delay when you hold the hq is a pain in the hole.

    Don't mind it, it's domination with an extra layer of complexity

    Probably my favourite game mode. I love having one life to try take on waves of oncoming enemies. It's one of the only time camping is fully justified.

    So I’ve been playing this for a little bit now about 20 hours and I think my biggest problem is the maps. Generally in cod I’d have 1 or 2 that I don’t like playing but in this I don’t think there is one I like and a couple I absolutely can’t stand (the cave one, Piccadilly, and the bridge one)

    I find myself playing shootout non stop.

    That being said my top 2 weapons are aug by a good bit and then the mp5 then m4 so maybe I should change my play style.

    'Big update' coming. I hope it is not too big and it goes completely the other way. Some things just need a tweak not an overhaul

    They need to address the technical issues on PC.
    Focusing on game balancing bolox when it has major issues on AMD hardware.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,325 ✭✭✭iLikeWaffles


    I don't mind that cave map too much but it is a camp fest, no other way to play it. Piccadilly and Euphrates Bridge are just poison, a riot shield on Piccadilly can be fun, they really need to block the bridge from looking into both spawns on Euphrates when both teams are playing the objective this map can be fun but because of the line of sights from the bridge nobody bothers, you can literally spawn on a snipers scope. Shoot House is a decent map, the 24/7 playlist can be tons of fun. More maps are definitely needed but because of the lack of DLC there will probably be a lot less new maps I'd be fine with them releasing past maps. I'd love to see Dome along with Infected, gungame and Jugg to break up the monotony. There is a whole lot of past maps that they could release and there was data mining done to show they are planned to be in the game.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,878 ✭✭✭heroics


    Wouldn't mind raid,slums and standoff as well.

    Maybe shipment 24/7 next :)

    I hope they are not listening to the MW reddit for these changes because that place is absolutely toxic - they want the ADHD COD back with the 3 lane maps because they can't adjust to MW.

    I also found a Youtuber who has made 20 videos in the past 2 weeks with every one of them talking about how much he hates the game and how bad it is - he actually spent one video sucking his own dick about how high his KD has been in all other CODS and he can't reach the same in MW. Left a comment on his latest one telling him it's probably time for him to **** off and play something else :D

    I tried BLOPS4 again recently to see what it was like. The gunplay and movement is so, so much worse. Mind you I only tried one battle royale game.
