I'm not seeing the distinction, what's the difference in the window of time all of this is playing out? How can that scenario be a summation of the average gameplay experience if it's supposed to apply to everyone playing?

It changes from game to game. One game you can be a second behind, the other someone else is. It's really noticeable.
Yeah, lol at the people who want the game to be fair.

I'm not gonna say what it is but I found a class that is God tier. I never go negative, even if my team gets wrecked. This game is on another level. So many emblems I wanna get my hands on too. Gonna be a long one for me.

If that's the first time that you've seen that then there are a hand full of good games out there waiting for you to beat them.

I had a similar experience in games last night, was so frustrating, 4 out of 6 people i was in s party have had enough and are selling the game. The last game was just like your last clip we were all shooting people getting 5+ hot markers and we died!
It's a shame because it is a good game (some maps are rubbish, solar I'm looking at you) I hope they fix it quickly.

No they should've fixed everything day 1, it's a joke really. Taking this game back because they haven't fixed the problems yet, I rather play Ghosts on Nintendo Wii, it was 100x better then this...

Damn dude lol
This. I sometimes think I am not remembering correctly, but anytime I load up COD4, the hit detection and lag seem mostly very smooth.
No other COD game has felt that way since
I was kind of hoping for an extra secret mission after the credits rolled. Something ala COD4's Mile High Club but in space.
I got it yesterday must say i'm a bit disappointed. Not even going to start with the lag but for all the shit IW gets for the past two CoDs they created atleast they make sure multiple playstyles are viable. Here sledgehammer has pulled a treyarch and one weapon class is significantly better than the others (ARs). I just want to play how I want to play and not be forced to a specific weapon class, like in MW2 there might have been a lot of OP stuff but strangely enough it provided some sort of balance because so many playstyles were viable. To stay with MW2 basically every match in AW plays out like favela from MW2. Though I do like the side dash since it gives me some times a means to react.
SMG's are good in this game.

I actually kinda like Solar in Classic, Exo mobility destroys it.

It's not just the guns, it's the overall playstyle that's forced as well. I'm still in shock that they've killed stealth based playstyle (and every other style) and left you with no option but run and gun like chicken with its head cut off.
Yeah seems to me that after mw2 they threw good map design and other playstyles out the window to stop the elusion camper.
I like this play style, been using it since MW. So I don't see the problem, it's the first COD after MW, I like
There are other games you guys can play, Killzone, Battlefield etc..etc..

I do best when i do the exact opposite of that. Running around spamming exo abilities is extremely fun but stealth still gives me the best results.

I agree, but how many games these days ship out perfectly on day 1?
Like I said, it's been out a week so they wouldn't just rush out a fix.
Bah, nothing on there about any kind of audio tweaks. I hadn't played with headphones until tonight. I also decided to try out the Overcharged Perk with Mute Exo. Wow... I thought my game was broken as I would be running around with no one anywhere near me yet it sounded like I was firing a suppressed gun when I wasn't. I finally realized it was teammates from across the map firing rounds. Sounded exactly like it does when I would fire. Footsteps are baffling too.

I'm a huge fan of the supply drop system in this game. Just got some rare items tonight (Nigerian support vest?) so now my guy looks cool

holy fuck, thought my lag was bad
I know I was being sarcastic. Games has been out a few days, lets wait for a couple patches at least then we can be more harsh on it.
Agreed. Plus show us total players, and total playlist players.

I mario stomped someone in mid air rofl
Their is something like that in this game. Forgot the exact name of it, but it's not that powerful. Still gets me more kills than Semtex though.
Yeah the explosive drone but I still don't quite get how it works exactly. Don't know if they have to walk on it or how close. Also don't understand the spike drone.pretty vague descriptions

Welp that was the shortest period I've had with a CoD. Glad I just rented it. This game isn't horrible per se but it has too much annoying stuff right now. It's way too laggy, 2/3rds of most lobbies are full of everyone running the first AR you unlock, fucking Sledgehammer just had to cater to those quick scoping nerds and include it here, and I basically had to get rid of all my killstreaks except the UAV since the rest suck/are pretty much unobtainable so that sucked a lot of the fun out of why I play these games, and most importantly I feel like I'm losing way too many one on one fights I would normally win in any other FPS with ease. I really don't know if my aim is just fucked up here, or I'm just going against host repeatedly but it has never been this bad in any of the past CoDs for me.
The movement and all that other junk are good steps forward but I'm betting had the Exo's not been in here this would have gotten a chillier reception than Ghosts.
Oh, and why do you get someone like Spacey
Most CoD villains are so one note and unmemorable, Spacey could have been mute and he still would have been better than 90% of past antagonists. Yeah his arc was the typical BS but he

only to kill him off in the stupidest and anticlimactic way possible. They should have just let him get away.
would have been good for the inevitable trilogy.

the two things ghosts did better was handling lag and leaning around walls. ghosts was very crisp most of the time. ill just chalk it up to first week lag or something.

get the PS4 version ;D
Couple of issues I'm having with MP thus far
- The lobbies suck so much. I can't see any stats for anyone in the room so I can't take note of who's good or sucks.
- I can't see any of my friends stats unless they're in my clan? Who thought that was a good idea?
- Sniping is pretty much dead. There's no where to set up shop and hunker down on any of the maps. Plus, with everyone jumping around it's impossible to hit anyone close range. Also with no claymores or Betty's and the shitty audio of footsteps you have no protection.
- Personal sadness, there's no emblem of an open circle so I can't make my awesome Ghostbusters logo like I did in BLOPS 2

Yup I play Ps4 (played in a COD clan of 20) - we were still playing ghosts a few weeks ago.
We are above average (won diamond quite a few times) and all play every cod since COD2.
COD is our primary clan game. We have decided that AW is unplayable mess.
Most of the guys have gone to BF4, decided fighting against connection is too much.
We all have UK optical fibre Ethernet connected port forwarded excellent connections, and AW shits on us from a great height because of this.
We could tell who was host as when game starts he would be 2-3 seconds behind the first spawn, and to have a decent game he would have to hide in a corner whoever was chosen from our party to host....or use full clip for 1 kill...
So we are moving to BF4 now its fixed until hardline...or another multiplayer game comes along that does not screw you for having good internet.
Sledgehammer would have to prove without any doubt their online was excellent with 50 ms ping lobbies and no skippers / laggers for us to consider a return. WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS BULLSHIT.
I have BT home hub 75 mb optical, I did consider looking how to make it a shit connection or play through my mobile - its too much hassle.

There is. When you select circle or any other emblem click outline button and you'll get open cirlce,

Waiting on GTA5 Ps4
Should be totally hooked on COD by now.
Activision can only blame themselves, they had the market and were too greedy to pay for proper servers....they are loosing their fan base.
