    Did they make Ghost useful after the beta? Having to constantly sprint seems like a pretty big downside.

    you have to be moving, not sprinting. it's useful, but only because there's not a stronger perk, imo.

    Was it sprinting in the beta? I think it was, but might be misremembering.

    You guys must have some amazing headsets, without Awareness I can never pick anything out of the constant noise and isolate it as footsteps even with a headset on.

    You must be moving for Ghost to kick in. It cuts out if you reload, plant explosives, throw stuff, basically anything but Sprint. It even cuts off when walking and ADSing in some scenarios, which is why I stopped using it recently.

    Sev: Your gameplay is the most heavily yomi based around. Usually you look for characters that allow you to force guessing situations for big dmg. Even if the guess is mathematically nowhere near in your favor lol. You're happiest when you have either a 50/50, 33/33/33 or even a 75/25 situation to go crazy with. And you will take big risks to force those situations to come up.

    Speaking of perks, was there any testing on how many more/less kills you needed to activate your Speciast weapon with and without Overclock?

    I've been running Overclock-Ante Up/Fast Hands-Tac Mask, probably switch Tac Mask back out for Engineer now that I unlocked it again.

    What's the thing that refills your boost quicker?

    It is a good perk.

    Flak jacket, boosty-thingy, fast hands, and either Gung ho or awareness

    How necessary is Quick Grip as an attachment? I wonder if I can just drop it in favor of other stuff...

    the only two must-have perks IMO are fast hands and dead silence, save the rest of the points for primary warfighter, need all of dem attachments.

    I'm also always saddened by the wildcard "take a second primary as your secondary" fuck that, I want to take a second secondary as my primary. I'd love to have a lawnchair to go with my pistol class, or have two different dual-wield pistols for maximum dakka.

    btw. Double XP weekend apparently starts today and ends Monday.

    Quickdraw I use occasionally. Grip I use all the time. Sometimes I have both, which I guess you could call Quick Grip :P

    I just unlocked the "second primary as secondary" wildcard and it has made my life complete. Running around with a Haymaker and then pulling out an XR-2 anytime you hit an open space...suits me just right.

    Holy shit, I just encountered a guy with 6 attachments on his Argus. That's like maximum tacti-cool on a lever-action weapon.

    That's not even possible!

    ... Is it? I thought five was max.

    5 plus a sight maybe?

    Also double xp seems to also be doubling challenge xp, which I don't think it did in previous games? So that's good.

    Maybe it was only five. It was a killcam and I may have lost count due to disbelief.

    When you throw max attachments on an LMG this is all I can think of:

    The Kuda is actually a great all-arounder. The VMP and Pharo and Vesper all have their strong spots. The Weevil seems to be the only one that could be said to noticeably lag behind the others.

    Yeah, I was extremely disappointed when I got Rapid Fire on my Gorgon. I could barely tell a difference. Long Barrel on the Sheiva and XR-2 is pretty amazing. Sheiva is just stupid with it, whereas I used it on the XR-2 to get the Longshot medals for camo.

    New patch makes the game crash every time you quit a match in progress.

    Was that in the patch notes?

    So using long barrel on shotguns was actually reducing the damage. No wonder...

    Also I prestiged my knife but even when I have the clan tag activated, it doesnt show on the weapon. Am I doing something wrong?

    I can't get the starter shotgun to work, even right up next to people I'll get hit marker, ads with whole body in the scope, and it just can't finish them off, then I die instantly to an SMG. I feel like there needs to be AARP only lobbies, so long as they'll take my washed up mid thirty's reflexes.

    I'm 38 and I'm not the oldest PAer doing work in CoD.

    IMO, the Argus is the only truly good shotty. The Haymaker can be entertaining in confined quarters, but doesn't hold a candle to the range the Argus can one-shot at.

    Everything else...eh....

    That's why the Haymaker/Brecci exist. Forget accuracy, we have volume!

    Last night I went to play campaign. The game tried to connect to the servers and failed. no big deal I'm not playing multi right now anyways. I go into campaign and it asks me to start over. I restarted the game 4 times before I got a connection to servers and could continue playing.

    What The Fucking Hell!!! Who came up with this shit? Why the hell do i have to be connected to the damn server to play a single player mode!!!

    It's probably because they tied some unlocks (camos, optics, etc) to SP. And they made that campaign coop too. I know the feel because I had to start the first two missions a bunch too.

    So I saw picking the wrong specialist was causing problems.

    First chose Prophet but I suck using rifles.

    Switched to Battery and been doing so much better.

    Yeah. That thing sucks.

    The other three are all right tho.

    Haymaker is stupid. Brecci can be pretty good for two shoting people, and the Argus is what the first shotgun should have been. Don't even know why they made a good slow shotgun and a bad slow shotgun. Seems like a waste.
