I would say real IMO
Big time. I still haven't even noticed a single exo ping. I must be going blind.

Yes, they sometimes have attachments, and they don't count towards your pick 13, which is awesome.
buy it, it's good.

First few games, and my KDR has been positive by about 9 kills.
Annoyingly, you can die anywhere and drop like a fly, but I chalk that up to not learning spawns quite yet. I still would have preferred higher TTK. The aim assist + damage is too helpful.
The speed is insane as is the new exo mechanics. For those saying where COD can go next: I still think the grounded warfare of COD4 and earlier games are fantastic. They just feel so much more intimate and personal

I stopped playing COD AW like COD and more like Titanfall. Kinda zero thought process and mindlessly running into the action and I'm doing way better. Mind you, I'm using the first shotgun as well, and it sometimes takes 4 pumps from close range to kill someone. However, this could be due to the netcode, which is becoming more glaring as an issue when using weapons like this. It's similar to the pump shotgun in the first Black Ops. It only works well when the connection is on your side.
Using the exo battery for extended cloaking and just booking it everywhere. Kinda disturbing how easy stealth is in this game, but KS's are so impossible to accomplish outside of support stuff. My review still stands strong at a solid 6/10. I'm trying really hard to find the fun, but at least I've already put in more time than Ghosts.

This is the best Call of Duty in years. Imo anyway. It's a massive jump over Ghosts which I skipped and did not purchase due to how poor it was.

It's great! When the network issues are in check. When the aren't. It can be anywhere from shit to ok depending on how you deal with getting shot in the back, around the corner by someone who wasn't actually standing there. lol

ALso, is the app called "Clan Wars" on Android?
Sent in a request for the clan!

As in good campaign with fun trophies and solid MP unlike Ghosts?
Yes!
Can't really speak for MP but the Campaign is up there with CoD2 and 4. Really fun.

How would you know if you skipped it?
I really wish the player icon wasn't blue like the rest of the team. Makes it very hard to tell who's who sometimes.
shiiiiit, why all these games coming out so close together? definitely going to grab it soon now. seems like this was the change the series needed and that comparison to 4 basically sold me.

By 'skipped' I mean I didn't buy it.
Fuck!
I will buy only 2 games this BF but now I will consider this instead of FC4, GTA5 has FPS mode anyway
What does this mean?
I bought the PS4 version and got the PS3 version for free.
I agree that it makes no sense whatsoever to do it one way and not the other. Or else, why the hell would anyone buy the current gen version ?
I have been a fan since the very first (mainly for campaign) but I got burnt out after the first Black Ops. This game breathed new life into the series and I'm back on board the hype train.

So it seems like you get a Supply drop every time you try a new game mode,
After you complete 1 game of said mode you then get it on your first death of the following match.

Interesting I shall have to try this. Still don't know if there any other way if getting a supply drop without dying. I thought it might be like BF4s crates.
Yep I feel the same way. I'm so glad there's a classic playlist. Much more enjoyable for me than jumping around and getting killed from behind over and over. Exos are cool but it's not implemented well.

I'm finally starting to enjoy the multiplayer now that I've begun to remember how to play a CoD and now that I've gotten some good attachments. That scope that highlights enemies as red is pretty fantastic. The exo abilities seem super useless (hover/health/invis) but the new movement options I like. I don't know that they really change things up as much as I thought they would but that's ok.

Not sure, it has worked on every mode so far.
Have done everything on the regular playlist as well as Classic SnD.

Going to try that. I feel like I have a kick me sign at times, lol. 90% I get killed from the back. I think I rather play the new play-style with a bunch of friends. Have someone look behind while the other covers your front. And do classic when is a few buddies or myself.

Just applied GT: DJRedLine
Welp, finally got my hands on this game! Was super excited because of all the positive buzz around this game ~
Not that anyone cares, but here are my Impressions: The guns and shooting feel cheap and unresponsive.. The guns have no weight to them and are not fun to use. Shooting enemies feels like i'm playing planetside 2, absolutely no weight or gratification when killing enemies and it is just extremely plain and boring.. I'm not sure how to explain this, but it just seems like a huge disconnect between the people who designed the weapons and the people who designed the enemies and level interaction.. I've only heard good things about the exo suit, but you get a double jump and a dash? Are you fucking kidding me? Not to mention it feels like shit and clearly made for consoles. Crysis did the exo suit 10 times better 10 years ago??? there's just no excuse.. The story is bad, the level design is bad, the graphics are bad, and the gameplay is outdated as fuck.
I'm not a COD hater.. I'm a huge fan of COD/COD2/COD4, but this game is just garbage. Why the fuck is everyone praising this pile of shit? Can't believe I wasted my money
Go play Wolfenstein and see what a real FPS should feel like.

man this companion app sucks. confusing to navigate. can you even change your loadouts through it like previous games? seems like its overloaded keep getting load errors...reminds me of call of duty elite launch where elite would never work.
also annoying that you can't see stats for people on other platforms or join clans. i was in a clan from cod ghosts which looks like it transferred over to aw. my friend sent a message to the clan and i got a push notice on my iphone with the message but i can't actually response to it in the app because i'm on ps4 and the reset of my friends are still on 360...

Have they mentioned if the patch fixes SnD?
So the emblem editor, is the scaling different? I feel like before you could make something wider or taller without effecting the other, this just seems to scale the size proportionally. Also would it have been that damn hard to put a rectangle in there? Forced to use an I or lower case L but they're too skinny and you can't make them fatter without making the taller.

So I'm looking at the Exo, and it physically covers a large amount of the player's back, which has got me thinking: If they reduced the damage you take from the back, would that alleviate some of the gripes?
In my time playing that's my major gripe. It's so frantic, and there's so many angles, that there isn't much you can do when you are being shot in the back but accept death. Perhaps a slight damage reduction when you are shot in the back would be enough give people an opportunity out of the sticky situations, but equally it might penalize players who get the drop on others.

Wolfenstein was one of the best FPS campaigns in recent years. Sorry you didn't like it.
