    Got absolutely carried in a Duos win yesterday. 18 kills and I had two of them. The guy I played with is a lot more aggressive than me and a lot better. I think we were in his SBMM zone as I was getting destroyed. Did ok but several times I was totally outplayed.
    A lot of my deaths last night were trying to revive him. Hey you have to contribute how you can.

    pretty sure I ran into a cheater on PS in WZ. Dude was about 50 yards away, stopped running, tracked me through a wall and headshotted me as I rounded the corner. Like immediately dead. It felt off. Recorded it and it looks well dodgy, he looked too far away to hear me.

    went into crossplay then and went 0-2, both deaths felt off but probably not, problem with crossplay is just, you never know

    I dunno, I was kinda hoping for a little bit of a more substantial map change, who know though, it could make a big difference.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,409 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    every now and then I'll stay on the plane to kill afkrs and fight those preying on afkrs. Yesterday 24 stayed on, it was mayhem.

    only got the update this morning, downloading rise of the tomb raider as well which is 1/2 the size, deep sigh.

    If that building winch device (bat hook?) is in the game, it is an anti-camping game changer.

    Price is part of the Season 4 battle pass, but if I don't buy the battlepass is there another way to get him? I don't see him in the Store? Or will he appear there once S4 finishes?

    unless he comes up as a cosmetic bundle in the store, you wont be able to get him without the battle pass.
    Mara was a battlepass character I think, but she was also available in later passes as part of a skin pack (but either way, unless you have the battlepass, you wont get it)

    probably pointless buying the pass now, as its over tonight. but if you must have price, he unlocks at the very start.

    i guess you'll just have to decide (•_•) ( •_•)>⌐■-■ (⌐■_■) if the price is worth it.

    it's €10 and then you can buy the next one with the Cod points you get from it at least that's what I did but this is probably the last one, is it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,644 ✭✭✭Penfailed


    I'm fairly new to Warzone and it is my introduction to CoD. Am I right in saying that the Season 4 to 5 changes (judging by the trailer) to Warzone are much greater than the Season 3 to 4 changes? I didn't really notice much difference between 3 and 4...except the Gulag.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,409 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    yeah there's much bigger changes this time round. The train, stadium and access to high buildings are all massive. previously the only big change was the final circles moving which was very confusing initially
    they also took out killing people in the warm up round which was ridiculous and quickly reversed.

    Came close to winning a solo this week. Found myself in a death battle with a riot shield on a roof, someone put him down and I ran off. He must have self revived because he won it. I actually got the last kill, traded with the guy in second who was killed in the gas. My stats actually show I won a solo but I can't remember it, must have been drunk.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,616 ✭✭✭✭errlloyd


    I've won two solos (it is a great feeling). Just finished fourth in one there, there were 8 left and I really quickly killed three in a row (out of necessity) the fourth guy was just one too many. He went on to win it.

    I dont know, reading their twitter - where they say 'we're not done yet' certainly has the tone of something thats in its closing stages, but its hard to know if thats more referring to the more traditional multiplayer side of things than warzone.
    They previously referred to warzone as being a kind of throughline for future Cods - I'd expect that at some point, Black ops becomes the main game, and we start seeing the operators from that game in warzone (or even on a seperate warzone map, but hopefully your modern warfare skins and operators can also be used).

    personally, id be much more inclined to buy an operator or tracer pack if i was sure it wasnt going to be useless come november.

    I don't know where I stand with solos on the one hand I hate it and on the other I love it. :)
    It's a lot more intense than when you're grouped up which doesn't make sense as you're not letting anyone down but yourself. We've all been there when you drive your team into a gas filled ravine, haven't we, eh?

    Have you found that Solos has changed a lot in the last few weeks? The beginning of a solos game is frantic, and in the end, there is a big lull until it gets frantic again for the final ten or so.

    I dunno if people are playing super aggressive at the beginning or if the game is just poorly balanced because circle sizes are designed for buy backs and that doesn't happen in solos, but eitherway, when there are about 20 left the circle is often MASSIVE.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,644 ✭✭✭Penfailed


    I've only been playing since near the end of Season 3 and only ever 'solo'. My K/D is woeful (0.36) but I have managed one win! I was too busy concentrating on the game to realise how many were left in the game. I reckon if I'd known that it was down to the last two...I'd have panicked and threw it away with the adrenaline rush! My highest number of kills in one game is only six and that was only last week...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,532 ✭✭✭EagererBeaver


    Did they "take out" killing people in the warmup or just cock it up? Because it was very on and off for days.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,020 ✭✭✭✭Snake Plisken


    I think this will be the final Season I don't think we will have a Season 6 unless they postpone Black Ops Cold War although rumour there will be some clues or subtile adverting in Season 5. I believe Majority of IW team will have started to focus on Modern Warfare 2 for next year already. Don't forget to turn on your PS4 tomorrow morning (7am) to install the downloaded update as I'm sure it will have to make changes to the existing game files which might take some time

    I was doing a lot more co-op before. I had tried it but found it impossible and very slow. EVERY loadout drop and buy station was camped. They still are but if you take off early for the drops you typically get away. I tend not to go for the second one as it's too risky. Plus there's a lot of good guns on the floor that I'm comfortable with at various ranges.
    I've started playing it a lot slower which is helping oh and shotguns lots and lots of shotguns.
    I do agree though there's an early burst then nothing seems to happen for 20 minutes and the last 2 or 3 minutes are mental.

    I do think WZ is optimised for trios

    No to shotguns. No way.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,409 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    I don't know. Picked up an origin off the floor and decimated people with it. Got a legendary 680 out of a box while I was being hunted. Massacred the guy then realised he wasn't the guy and massacred the guy when he turned up later. I'm not very good. Shotgun very good.

    You need to be close but they just delete people instantly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,532 ✭✭✭EagererBeaver


    That's probably the difference. I don't like being that close to them at all :)

    I can't bring myself to bother committing to unlocking the Bruen to use in WZ so still run a Grau/SMG combo. Am very happy to hang on to a Harpy or Toxic Remains if I can pick them up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,409 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    aye unlocking the Bruen is a mare. I did it on shipment 24/7. At one point I had a Geordie screaming at me "WILL THE PEOPLE ON MY TEAM STOOP DROOPING FOOKING SMUKE"
    Sometimes I break out in spontaneous laughter just thinking about it.

    My favourite is still the MP5, again need to be near really. I'll take the bruen if I get a second loadout but typically will have one anyway or a kilo/m13 from the ground.

    Was up early and on PS4 the install applied in a couple of seconds only problem is the bloody servers are down. Will try again later

    I couldn't log in but when I shut it down and relaunched it worked although I didn't try and get into a game. They replaced normal BR solo with buyback BR solo which I haven't tried before.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,644 ✭✭✭Penfailed


    I was playing from about 6:30 until about 7:45. I take it that the update was at 8?

    this one is supposed to make the game smaller by removing some unnecessary files. I deleted co-op but the size didn't seem to reduce, then some weeks later it went from 198GB to 170something. Couldn't delete the campaign as it seems to be tied into the MP


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,585 ✭✭✭✭antodeco


    Servers seem to have picked up now. Took an hour to get to 10% and now less than 10 minutes to get to 15%. Hopefully be ready by lunchtime!

    Theyve been saying that for the last 3 seasons it feels like.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,532 ✭✭✭EagererBeaver

    Definitely.

    Had no problems downloading this morning. Then again, I don't have to live in Ireland do don't have to suffer ****e broadband.

    Are the servers ok? Last 3 Season updates the servers and matchmaking were an unholy mess for hours afterwards.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,000 ✭✭✭Stone Deaf 4evr


    Anyone play a few games yet? just wondering what the floor loot is like, I though season 4's was a great mix, although i did miss the famas.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,616 ✭✭✭✭errlloyd


    From what I can tell the FAL, mp7, Bizon and the M13 are gone.

    The Ram is still there. The origin, uzi, p90, a silenced pump shotgun, kar (no attachments), are all there.

    I don't tend to use LMGs so can't really comment


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,409 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    no surprise the FAL is gone, you can imagine the devs after the last patch saying "what the hell did we do to the FAL in WZ?"
    MP7 is a surprise but it was probably the dominant gun to get early on from the floor

    yup, we'd often play a 2 loadout game, but if I got a harpy or a toxic bizon I'd forego that, they were so strong straight out of the crates.

    Id happily rock that base FAL into the mid game in season 4. Loved it. Mp7 too.

    I'm getting disconnection issues for the first time ever right now. They've made solos into the buy back one, so no Gulag. As long as you die with 4.5k you respawn. They've also added Juggernauts to solos.

    One of the better changes is they have added external winch points to lots of buildings. For example Superstore has two. They work like a lift shaft but you're quite exposed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 765 ✭✭✭Dozyart


    No snipers in gulag,winches on the outside of buildings and the Origin shotty the first thing you pick up are all great things :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,532 ✭✭✭EagererBeaver


    Juggernauts can get ****ed. Make that a separate mode for anyone who wants it. Motoring about the place, have 8 kills and haven't been bought back once. Pushing towards penultimate circle and I get mowed by a juggernaut. He had two kills.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,532 ✭✭✭EagererBeaver


    Also, yay the Oden is back! Said nobody, ever.

    I've seen some comments about the floor origin similar to the floor FAL. Expect to get shotgunned a lot.
    Juggernauts wouldn't be my idea of fun in a BR especially solos

    What's 'juggernauts'?

    it's the top killstreak in multiplayer, in WZ you have a chain gun with a shed load of bullets, significant armour and when you drop from a height do massive AOE damage. A decent player would be pretty much unkillable a lot of the time.
