[Call of Duty] BLOPS IIII out now, and pretty good despite Activision's best efforts.
The bipod with FMJ also lets you just set up on a sniper duel, say "hay guys, can I join in?" and mow them down through their neck-high cover
Edit: I agree with the fact that they're missing a number of weapons. They really should have at least a revolver. They don't have a high damage pistol, and the British standard sidearm during WWII was the Enfield revolver.
And I love pretending to be revolver ocelot and run around with akimbo revolvers and go 11-24

My friend is working on a roguelike game you can play if you want to. (It has free demo)
I do hate how it isn't explicitly mentioned anywhere in game that the Bipod buffs your reload. It's a crucial factor.
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.
I'm guessing they will do it like with IW, where new weapons were introduced periodically. Hopefully they will continue the trend of having them unlock by challenges instead of in crates.

I'll settle for these in the interim.

Just needs some gold camo, or an equally ludicrous variant.

LOL chatting with Activision support about supply drops that just disappeared during all the issues Friday/Saturday and my gold unlock token that I never received. Being told that I already had a token and used it, so their system won't give me a new one.
Right....that's why I have no upper level guns unlocked! I was going to wait this out and try to enjoy what I can for now, but if this is seriously the answer support is going to give me then I'm going to ask for a refund.
Two reasons I pre-ordered the day before release: playing day 1, and getting the free bonus.
Things I did not do after pre-ordering this game: play on day 1, get my free bonus.
edit: chat agent has now bothered to check my account, and can see that I haven't unlocked anything. Might get my token someday...but at this rate I may prestige myself by then. He also said he added 3 rare drops to my account to make up for whatever disappeared before, so that's something.
Looks like most of those known issues are loot box related. How is the actual game? Any improvements on the standard CoD formula? I am on the fence with the game.
I'll know for sure when I get home after work, but I think my daily hour of double xp just glitched out and I lost an hour now. I used one today last night, showed I had one hour banked, then relogged on a bit later and the banked hour was gone. Also reset my characters face to default again, so I knew something was up. Sigh.

Yeah, but CoD typically just works on launch. That's one of the things I love about, and it's frustrating that this one is so borked. I guess going back to WW2 brought back way more people than usual for launch or something. I know that it's been less than a week, and they're sure to get everything working properly... but Battlefront 2 is right around the corner and looking very appealing.
Of course, that probably won't work right at launch either :P
Everyone has a price. Throw enough gold around and someone will risk disintegration.
You can commend people in the pregame lobby, just in case anyone was wondering how to do the commend 10 people challenge with the headquarters being broken

lmao I Prestiged before reading that there was an issue. Somehow I don't appear to be affected. There are some orders I just straight up don't get credit for, but kocher has the same issue and is only at like level 40, so that wouldn't be a prestige thing. Storm prestiged last night, hope he didn't get the bug...
oh also apparently there's special prestige orders? They don't appear anywhere for me though. Maybe I was confused by wording and it's only prestige challenges like in previous games?

There's an area near the divisions prestige guy that you can't get to until you prestige. Maybe whoever's up there gives you orders?

@Mechanical and I had a grand old time last night running Shovels for multiple matches. We also got dropped into a losing TDM game and decided to play BazookaShrek. We ended up turning the game around and winning the match.
Here I forgot I was infantry when I charged a guy after missing my rocket, which turned into some WW2 ninja bayonet stuff.
Opened I think 4 drops last night. Three of them had two XP items...which, honestly, was probably better than more pistol grips anyway!
@Custom Special have you messed around with Serrated yet and if so can you tell if it's actually "attacking faster" than a regular old shovel? Seems like not to me.
Also, my apologies, I've been playing a lot solo recently, or I'll be in a party chat with a friend and we'll be bullshitting while playing different games. I was grinding out challenges also so that means I run around doing sub-optimal stuff like playing Armored division.

Yes! I just picked up serrated last night and tried it. The swing speed was noticably faster to me, seems like you can get almost two swings in the time it takes for one normal swing.
I'm torn between Mountain for staying hidden and Airborne for speed. After playing only Mountain last night I really missed the Sprint bonus from Airborne.
If y'all see me on and want to play non objective modes shoot me an invite I can play some Dom now and again but typically objective modes just fill me with rage in COD games. War amplifies that to the nth degree.
Also man seriously this fg42. Can't wait to try out the BAR as I hear they're both top tier (bar has slightly faster 3shot TTK and reload, fg42 has double the 3shot kill range) but the fg42 is already like light years beyond the stg and the starter AR that I forget the name of.

I have an FG-42 but honestly it's probably my connection, or just wonky hit registration. Half the time it's a laser and 3 bullets in a row hit. The other half the first bullet will hit then it goes on a magic carpet ride shooting everywhere but where it's aimed at.

The fact that tons of games I play do the "disconnected from server" thing at the end and don't count as a win is just incredibly fucking frustrating. I don't want to play search and destroy at all, and when it takes me 4 matches to get a win for these challenges and then it doesn't count i just want to break something.
Edit: googling around some looks like it's a pretty widespread thing. Hopefully that gets fixed because man it's making me salty. Every match I do well in and get first or second it disconnects and didn't count the stats, every match I get stomped counts fine.
Custom SpecialI know I am, I'm sure I am,I'm Sounders 'til I die!Registered Userregular
Don't feel too bad about the post-match disconnects. I've had plenty of winning matches with no issues after, and it still doesn't count for Win orders.
The real problem is how bugged most of the Orders are still, so many of them just don't count properly (last night my bayonet kills got stuck at 5, and none of my turret kills in War counted).
other than the launch day wonkiness, I haven't had any issues with finding or staying in matches. I will say that there has been some questionable hit detection stuff going on, but... meh, it's CoD. Hopefully they will go to an actual hosted server system instead of the peer-to-peer setup at some point.

Questionable hitreg has been an understatement at times, it's been worse at times than BO2

Maybe second worst launch ever. MW1 did fucking destroy XBL for a couple days.
Of course, that probably won't work right at launch either :P
$500 million launch so I'd say that it was a fairly large release.

Probably the standard ~6 hours. I don't for for sure because gave up on it. The campaign is so painfully dull =/
