You got to chance that carrot.

Isn't it just the Bloodshed helmets that expire?

Does anyone know that this is?

No, it's any equipment earned through streaks.

Have a 4 day weekend coming up. Im gonna be in my mancave playing this. Is there a gaf ps4 friendlist that i can add?

 

[Jeffolation]

The gloves and chest piece seem to as well. I don't mind that they expire so much as they're always showing up as new items over and over again.

My Win/Loss ratio is .60 Playing with randoms all time is brutal.

I saw a guy live streaming last night that had a 22.10 W/L. He's already prestiged 3 times and he always plays with his clan.

I'm sorry, but your point being? My W/L is something like 1.9 playing solo HC Kill Confirmed/Domination or Ground war. Being at 0.6 doesn't come down to "randoms", sorry. In fact I would say that you are one of those "randoms". And there's nothing wrong with that. But acting all elite at the same time ... is a bit childish.

Damn, wasn't expecting to be attacked. I always play the objective and almost always finish in the top 2 or 3 out of all 12 players. I just saying it's hard to win when the bottom 3 guys on your team combine for less than 10 kills and 30+ deaths almost every match.

I didn't think that would offend anyone. Sheesh

this quickly became a "look at me and look at my w/l ratio" thread...

No, that certainly wasn't my intention. I simply replied to the usual "I'm so good, yet I have to play with such bad players aka randoms and that's why my stats are bad" stuff.

Am I complaining about my games? I don't think so.

I play mostly tdm and my KD is like 1.1 but my W/L is like .35. Don't ask me how but I lose almost every game despite putting up above average numbers.

Nice! My PC wallpaper is cookie monster

I need to make one too, haven't had a good, easy idea yet though.

 

[Zero Hero]

This is the most unsatisfying cod to date. Almost every game I get 35-50+ kills with 20-30+ deaths, most of which are just impossible to avoid. I just shouldn't be dying this much to random players.

Yep, you literally get killed left, right and centre in this, which is ridiculous.

Do you feel that you guys are above getting killed by someone else? I don't get the complaint unless it's not a complaint and it's just whining.

 

[Dubz]

For people say they are unloading on opponents only to have them turn around and kill you with 2 bullets. I am guessing that there is more than on guy firing at you and the guy that kills you is actually being assisted by team mates. Food for thought.

 

[Naar]

Can someone please explain to me this problem that i am facing

This happened to me in multiple games that i bought for PS4. Whether it was a disc or download. The only game i didnt have this issue with was Ground Zero's

I would play the game for about 10-15 min and then i either finish the chapter or the game freezes at a certain point in the chapter and it says "now installing" and i would wait hours for it to finish.

it happens whether the game has been downloaded for a while, or i put the PS4 in rest mode for a few hours.

I clearly remember sony saying that with PS4 you can choose to download the single player or online first and start playing but everytime i am stuck with installing it even if the PS4 was on for hours AFTER the download has finished

Now with CoD i waited to download a 5gb file that was supposed to be single player. after i downloaded and installed that 5gb file i played the first chapter and then as soon as it finished it said "please wait installing content time remaining 7 hours"

so i leave my ps4 on and didnt shut off the game to finish installation

now 2 days later i finish single player and want to try online.....it tells me online is installing now please wait 5 hours

i try exo survival...it says installing wait 4 hours

WTF why is it taking 2 days to install?

Anyone can help?

So, guys, I've come for the sage advice of those who know.


How is this year's CoD? I thoroughly enjoyed MW1&2, BO1 for the most part, but thought BO2 had the best online of any CoD I've played to date. Last year I got Ghosts and it burned me pretty bad, so I said I wouldn't buy it anymore. But I hear murmurings that this one is actually pretty good.


What say you? Is it good, and in your opinion why? Is the map selection good?

Sell me! I have no trust for review sites or any of that tribe, I trust the honest reviews of those who play it themselves.

 

[TerryWogan]

Why can't I survive longer than five minutes in Exo Survival? Am I playing with idiots or is it actually this hard? Using the matchmaking.

 

[th4tguy]

Resuming my campaign today, I noticed I was missing some unlocks for my character. I didn't think much of it and I continued through with a few more missions. As I'm trying to get trophies, I restarted the mission traffic so that I could get a missed trophy. All along the way I've been collecting intel for each mission using a guide to locate them. I haven't missed any. I just finished fusion and realized I missed the trophy for the turret section. I save and quit and go to mission select. It will only let me select the first two missions (up to atlas). Also when I go to intel, it says I haven't collected any. Not a single one. When I resume mission, it takes me back to Fission. Anyone else have this issue? Am I screwed to have to collect all of this again?

I got burned by Ghosts too, selling it last Christmas when I realised how poor it was.

Bought AW day zero because I liked what I read in the build up and the fact it seems to be black ops 2.5. I enjoyed Black Ops 2 the most since MW2 (with Black Ops 1 very close behind them, they were all fantastic games) this is similar to those games.

I'm not disappointed, the movement works very well once your used to it and spices up encounters somewhat.

The maps are pretty good to be honest.

I like how killstreaks aren't overly dominant except the system hack which seems massively OP.

Everything else is still getting used to but I think the basics are there for a fun game and I will gladly play it for a year until next year.

it could be, but I'd be willing to bet when people complain about this, more often than not it's lag though.

 

[BLUElightCory]

Well, today I finally experienced the lag/connection problems everyone has been complaining about. The game has been chugging all day (XBox One, about a 50 mbps connection, CoD shows full connection) and the players with the worst connection statuses have been dominating pretty consistently.

I think my biggest concern was reading something about active camo. Is that a big problem in mp? Kinda had my fill for life of campers, active camo would surely only compound the problem.

Thanks for the reply!

active camo is nothing in this game. it's actually useless compared to titanfall, where you move so quickly and can get around at such a rate that the camo really helps you out.

here? you still stick out, and if anything it's satisfying to take someone down with it on because you know that they're wasting a point on that nonsense.

 

[TestOfTide]

Starting to get used to the shotguns. Guess the low range is more due to the maneuverability of the exosuits.

Can someone tell me what the point of the XMG is, particularly lockdown mode with it's horrible delay? The gun is usable as a hipfire gun with gung-ho, but not much else.

So far I like it a lot more than I like Ghosts. Campaign is worlds better. Multiplayer is great. Map selection is at least as good as MW3 (which is amazing compared to Ghosts). But unless you have an itch to play the campaign, I would probably say wait a week or two to see what sledgehammer does with the servers.

That's pleasing to hear. Great!


Guess I better go find me a copy then Cheers fellas.

You can equip a cloaking ability but it only lasts for about 5 seconds per life. It's not rechargeable once you use it up, but you get another 5 seconds when you respawn. So it's not like guys are staying invisible and camping.

Even when cloaked it's still pretty easy to spot them. It's kinda like Predator when he goes invisible.

Not really an issue for me, I've encountered a few people using it but you can see them easily and it only lasts a short time once per life so is fairly balanced against camping.

 

[Sojgat]

If you permanently unlock a gun when you prestige, do it's attachments stay unlocked as well?

I've been unlocking perks up to this point.

PSTrophies - CoD:AW campaign progress bug

ugh, this really sucks. Do you know if the vet trophy will still pop if I keep going? I don't mind replaying the levels on lower difficulty to get the other stuff.

 

[SmartWaffles]

I don't really see the point of Cloak, it is as easily spotted as in Crysis 3 and Titanfall, and you don't have Titans to fool with Cloak, why bother using it?

 

[Karu]

So I'm by no means an CoD-expert or a very good player, but in my own experience the game was pretty fair as far as I could tell. Sometimes it's annoying when you are flanked by 3 people at different sides, but I always try and take this at something I have to improve upon in regards to positioning, learning the maps etc. Some pages ago someone gave great advice on using the map + movement & such to your advantage. Especially with double-jump and some exo abilitys you can do some pretty neat stuff to surprise others. Oh and the rather low-key scorestreaks are like heaven for me. Hated when I heard the damn helicopter again in BLOPS. Yeah, free kills. *yawn* (That would probably change I got actual skill, but being more understanding and all, it seems plausible to lessen their effect. ;-))

 

[CloudyTuba]

You press crouch while in the air to do the exo-slam. I got my first kill using this today, and I'm like 15hours deep. It felt damn good.

You must crouch in the air, sir.

You press duck to do it I think. That at least shoots you down at the ground, I've never gotten a kill with it so I'm not sure.

Derp. Thanks, guys!

That's absolutely terrible.

So, you basically have to play it all in one sitting to be safe (like BF4)?

I wonder why this keeps happening with these kind of FPS campaigns.

I've no idea i'm afraid. Only just started the campaign myself.

 

[Cudder]

Why are there so few guns in multiplayer? I feel like previous CODs had way more options. I honestly don't like most of the guns in multiplayer.

 

[Bucca]

Exo Stim seems so pointless due to insta-kills cause of lag/lag compensation.

 

[samus4ever]

Anyone can help?

That's not normal at all. Call Sony before the warranty runs out. If you got it at launch, you got a week left on the year long warranty.

Anyone getting any use from Threat Grenades? Not sure if I'm supposed to detonate them manually or not in order to get the ping.

 

[brickwalker0]

Exo Stim seems so pointless due to insta-kills cause of lag/lag compensation.

Exo Ping and Shield seem to be the only remotely useful Exo Abilities.

It's like they wanted to add variety to the Call of Duty formula until Activision saw it and lost their shit that the game was at all different from the previous entries.

 

[mangochutney]

System Hack. Screw that. Aiming and tracking a moving target and it pops up and now I can't see my target because a massive graphic is in the middle of the screen.

Like fine disable my HUD, put glitch effects on the screen but not over my crosshairs.
