I've been having so much fun with his game on my PS4. I also do BF4 and Destiny, but AW is tons of fun. I waited until reviews and feedback were available, and still managed to get the Zero Day Edition.
Great job On this game now we just need some patches and lower that damn Season Pass price. Too expensive.

did you feel like you could not react before in 1v1 situations?

I definitely could, my scores were still positive but nothing absolutely amazing. I would find a lot of times my deaths would just make absolutely no sense. Something funky was definitely going on there. Feels loads better now! Still not sure if its dedicated servers though. Maybe just improved matchmaking?
This is a good video, and shows how issues should be addressed. Dedicated servers need to happen. And like the guy said, this game is great and has great potential to be a FANTASTIC game.
I'm gonna be my only FPS for the months to come, reminds me of an improved and newer Black Ops 2.

Can anyone post the leaderboard number for Xbox One / Xbox 360 / PS3 / PC? Really interested to see the breakdown of player counts across platforms and how it compares to Ghosts.

I feel like titanfall has spoiled me with movement options since this feels so clunky in multiplayer. Still fun but a bit less because someone's already made the same but better.
Recorded a couple more games yesterday for fun.
Fairly close fight on Comeback with the AK: http://youtu.be/asFkhmU_7PU?list=PLQGhp23HlbfLsxGHIe9IpA6B8uCkwFfJT
Gotta Go Fast on Detroit with the Tac-19 shotgun: http://youtu.be/cj5dOsjm79o?list=PLQGhp23HlbfLsxGHIe9IpA6B8uCkwFfJT
Speaking of the Bal, I started out unconvinced of it being that much better than the others... and I'm still not convinced. It's good, absolutely. But I think I'd still rather use the HBR or AK. :\

Added Xbox 360 and Xbox One (would love a screenshot, even potato-quality, of xbox one)
Xbox 360 numbers are really, really surprising imo.
I decided to test the hypothesis that a crappy connection results in an advantage in this game.
A quick search gave me this program, which lets you screw up your connection in many arbitrary ways.
My connection is decent. I live in the Netherlands and I think some of the game's servers are hosted here. Normally I should have a ping under 20ms, so I added a delay of 70 ms to my outgoing traffic. I played a couple of games and the result was very noticeable. No more instant deaths. It felt like I was ahead of the other players. They couldn't touch me. Nothing you would expect from playing with a ping of 120.
If this isn't a fluke, this is ridiculous. This feels like cheating.

I never get any good armor in supply drops. I saw the Sentinel Airborne Loadout today which almost looks like power armor from Fallout. I also don't have any of those cool full helmets yet.

88th place in TDM leaderboards on ps4... That won't last much longer though lol.
PS3 is 1,260,423 players.

If they are fun then why care about your KDR? Gaming is supposed to be fun. Don't punish yourself for some arbitrary and worthless stat that will get you nowhere in life.
That brings the total to 6.8 million players.
Wow, that's pretty good for CoD yes? I wonder what percentage of people haven't played multiplayer yet.

So I'm at prestige status. Is there a reason (bug wise) not to? Or is it safe to prestige? PS4 version.

Fuuuuuuuuuu. I think the update broke the single player FOV fix 
My brother and me counts as 2 accounts with 1 game and I know this happens a lot, so the leaderboards are not accurate.

Its good. I just don't agree with him on the Bal-27. That gun needs a nerf.
Can't wait for the hard stats to be released on Den Kirson. That gun definitely needs a tune up.

It has outsold Ghosts in the UK, so it is selling well
This is ridiculous. Completely dominated for two matches in a row and murdered every hostile moving thing. The next match I'm on the wrong side of the lag compensation and I die every time I get into a fight. The final death kill cam shows me just staring down the guy who kills me, but on my end I had put a full clip into him before he fired even once. He wasn't even looking at me when I started shooting.
Cool game, guys!
Being on the wrong side of lag compensation is far more infuriating than being on the right side of it is fun. It's a hollow fun, because after you win 10 1v1 fights in a row, you know that it's just a by product of the game giving you an artificial advantage.

Because when I start to have more deaths than kills i am no longer having fun. Problem is I go after objectives. I get a decent amout of flag captures but I am also going like 13-30 in the process.

You're ridiculous, lol.
No, not safe yet, you'll lose all challenge progress, camo progress, emblem and couple other things, I'd wait it out.

Uplink is my new best friend.
The feeling of actually scoring a goal is so satisfying.

Get an update on those numbers in a week and see how much they've changed, I bet they've changed already, still good numbers considering it's only been a week.

I'm at level 47. Should I wait until the patch deploys before I prestige?

Yep. If your router or ethernet program supports it, you can throttle your downstream and upstream as well on the fly to act as a lag switch of sorts. Personally, I've switched from my 1ms 300Mbps connection to a 1 bar 3G personal mi-fi hotspot in order to even stand a chance. The difference is night and day.

Agreed, however I think the supply/loot drops keep it interesting.

Titanfall is much more fluid. Though I played a few matches of Titanfall this weekend and I was constantly trying to boost dash forward. The boost strafing and boost dash would fit nicely into Titanfall, hopefully Respawn puts a boost maneuver into Titanfall 2.
GODDAMIT just when I got my first Brutal Killer medal, I lost connection to host! HARGH https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQwGHo3l37g

I love Pokken!
What's most shocking to me is how prevelant old-gen is. I thought business analysts were proclaiming old-gen as "dead"? I guess CoD brings people out again.
PC is dead
Not really but those numbers are depressing.

PS4 more than XB1 AND 360?
Wow...

It's not really all that surprising given the millions of more units PS4 has over X1.

Anyone know when double XP ends?

That changed when MS went after gamers' throats with the DRM nonsense. I don't think any third-party title has sold better on X1 over PS4.
