Support NeoGAF

Got a code off Ebay for £1.50 its fine but not worth buying the full game thinknzombies could be fun wish it was a cheaper part of the game like £25 and you could just get that.

Open beta started a hour ago?

 

[Pallas]

Playing the beta, it definitely feels nice, the movement seems to be … idk less fluid than BO6? Like it's the Omni movement but not as crazy I guess but the wall jumping is nice touch. I think they had that in black ops 3, and a few other older CoD games.

Worth popping in here

Black Ops 7 finally addressing skill-based matchmaking with new playlist in beta - Dexerto

Black Ops 7’s beta will introduce Open Moshpit, a standalone multiplayer playlist in which “skill consideration is drastically reduced”

www.dexerto.com

It's confirmed to be classic matchmaking of older Call of Duty where skill is minimally considered.

Sorry for double post, but is this essentially a mode where SBMM isn't determining who you are match up with and it's just random?

Is 20 the max rank for the beta?

 

[Donald mac Ronald]

So I opened the game and I was greeted with a rather butch looking lesbian with dreads... Does this woke shit ever end?

Code was for closed beta

probably not if that's your default reaction to any actress that doesn't get your dick hard.

Everyone in COD is just scanned in, that's the actress from the Expanse, and she's very much in a straight relationship and has never played a gay character.

Game's fun but it should've gone full titanfall 2, it might end up with a Advanced Warfare or IW situation where the actual game is decent but it ends up as a forgettable entry

Gotcha, thought you'd just made the purchase.

 

[TrebleShot]

Gotcha, thought you'd just made the purchase.

Nah got it the other day wanted to try it on my handhelds and it ran very well.

 

[Celcius]

After playing it... it's actually not bad. I guess it's just the aesthetics that are weird / take some getting used to
That being said, still not buying it

 

[DaleinCalgary]

I've found that the matchmaking is much quicker and my ping is better but see no difference in the open options for SBMM. Maybe it's just the more dedicated playing the beta.

 

[Donald mac Ronald]

Trash. Played two matches same old shit. Every gun is a laser and you die in 2/3 hits.

 

[BigLee74]

Played it a bit more. It's decent, and a refreshing change from BO6, MW3, MW2 etc.

All maps I've played so far also seem
OK. No out and out stinkers.

TTK a bit too quick for me.

Points are whack! Spent 3 minutes in the hardpoint in one game and was far outscored by folk with 0 time in the hardpoint but 20 more kills.

In the scoreboard. The 0 and 8 look the same to my old man eyes and really makes my teeth itch.

Will play for the 3 months I have on GPU before it expires and decide whether to buy or not for the remainder of the year.

I love the expanse bro. She looks nothing like gunney.

gg

 

[twilo99]

I've been enjoying this quite a bit



I still like my AMAX in BO6 better but this is fun

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

I love the expanse bro. She looks nothing like gunney.

It's literally her, I even posted the live action image she was scanned from for you, if you can't see it's literally the same actress I can't help you.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Lol not sure if open moshpit is any better, had a game that was significantly worse than what I normally get, just an entire team with insane sniper rifle kills from any angle over and over again lol.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Yeah no open matchmaking is way sweatier, pretty much every game is people openly talking shit over the mic, sliding around with their laser snipers and everyone uses stimshots, bespoke teams of players teaming up.
Back to regular matchmaking and nobody speaks, and it generally feels more balanced and varied with tactics, everyone random.

 

[Pallas]

So tactical, lethal, field upgrades and score streaks have something called overclocks(2 so far)that once you level it up, it unlocks a overclock which improves the gear.

Example: Overclock ability 1: RCXD has increase gunfire resistance.
Overclock ability 2: See target indicators on occluded enemies in medium range.

 

[havoc00]

Game is great, and even though Im getting both I kinda want this more than BF atm.

I hope there's an ICR in the full game.

 

[Branded]

Gave it another go last night and felt it was even worse than I initially thought. On PC the movement feels floaty and imprecise, the gunplay is awful and half the time you're at the mercy of what the system decides in terms of who wins what gunfight. The whole live-kill-repeat aspect of the series has never been worse with this one and the audio is atrociously bad. Same goes for performance.

I wanted to give it an honest shot but I alt+f4'd and uninstalled.
