    Hoff's not playable, though. Hadn't heard about Paul Reubens, that's rad!

    Yeah, Pee-Wee's also not going to be a playable character. The other three playables are comprised of 2 current SNL members and a dude who played a prison guard on Suicide Squad.

    No playable pee wee?!

    Order canceled, throwing away all my video games

    New Campaign Trailer:



    Looks fun, but man is the whole "the enemy hacked our weapons and turned them against us" thing old now.

    Also hope they can time down the mustache twirling of the villians, but I doubt it.

    Raul Menendez was a pretty good villain (until that awful avenged sevenfold music video...thing). That was Treyarch, though. And only that one time... :P

    I'm actually kinda amused by that, makes the Killzone parallel more apt. Especially since Hyder's in it too.

    As a quick heads-up, I won't be reupping the next thread. Judging from the OP, a freshly procured thread is in order and since I haven't played COD since BO2, I'm not the best person for the job.

    Just Copypasta new weapons and maps in and everything else is pretty much the same anyhow.

    I mean it's COD where the hitmarkers are made up and your mum is a carnival ride.

    Halo burned bumperjumper into my brain as well as inverted southpaw legacy so I've always used as close to a bumperjumper layout as possible.

    But yeah COD games are going more hippity hoppity now so you should start trying out the new layouts as they'll carry over to future games.

    The trailers for this game have pushed CoD from something that I largely ignore to a thing that I may just buy.

    All it needs is an achievement list that's not swaddled down with MP achievements and I think I'd be in.

    Following in the steps of Titanfall 2, the beta for this won't be on PC.

    After being burned with PC AW; I really don't mind going console with COD. I just hope they open up the beta for everyone at least for one day.

    I think there might have been a CoD that had multiplayer achievements?

    BLOPS 3 had some "Reach level x in MP" cheevos, AW too maybe. Typically it's all SP/Zombies related. Though, I think zombies achievements are a relatively new thing?

    WaW had them, and then they weren't for a long time.

    Thought most of them afterwards had a token one for reach level 10 in MP or something. Maybe it was just after BO2? Anyway, they're fairly unobtrusive. The zombies ones though? Labyrinthine.

    @JusticeforPluto agree so hard. I mean, BLOPS3's were a bit wacky but IW's looks so broken.

    Been playing the beta some random thoughts

    Snipers need to be nerfed into the fucking ground - been losing shotgun fights to one hit kill snipers way to much

    The robot class looks pretty stupid running around

    Some of the specialist abilities needs to be nerfed - especially the warfighter gun

    Been playing the beta as well and having a good time.

    Its Blops 3 In Space!

    My only concern is some of the hybrid weapons seem really op, especially the RPR EVO.

    I don't really understand the reason for Persistence existing in this. Yeah, your streak doesn't reset, but now it costs north of 5K.

    Yeah, tried using it both in dom and tdm but there's no way I could reach that point cost - was even running hardline and the skill with double scorestreak bonus.

    The game is definitely fun though.

    Well, it is an IW game; sniper rifles being the best shotguns doesn't really surprise me.

    I don't know if I want to buy IW. TBH, I really hated Ghost's map design.

    From the look of things in youtube videos, I think they took all the complaints to heart. The maps I've seen look like normal CoD stuff instead of desperately trying to be like a Battlefield map. And some of the skyboxes... holy shit!

    I actually really like Frontier. Entirely hallways, but lots of flanking routes. The rest seem to be pretty standard for the series, but I don't overly care for Throwback.

    I'm annoyed that Terminal is a preorder bonus, though. That means it wont be in normal rotation, and therefore I will play it only once =/

    Thanks, guessed that it wouldn't - could have been nice to skip some of the initial grind.

    Indeed. They usually work in a double XP weekend very early on to reward the early buyers though, which helps.
