Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Early Access beta is going live now!

There's a reason it's coming to Game Pass, because with each iteration there's less players.

The plague doctor grenades + a bunch of assault packs are so much fun. I started out using the ak74 mostly in the assault class, but the ames85 is actually pretty potent with the masterwork attachments. Most of the attachments are tied to higher levels than I care to spend time on in the beta, so its tough to get a good balance with the stuff you get access to within a short timespan.

Otherwise, the jackal with the scourge masterwork has been the most used I think.

The insane thing is that guy's probably on a console with a Cronus Zen.
What lol nothing on console comes even close to doing that
Do people really think this OMG
I'm fucking speechless

No, that is a PC aimbot, you are joking right? Cronus? Tell me this was a joke and you don't really think that

Then I guess the PS5 is fucked because COD is the #1 selling game on the platform every single year. If people are bailing on the game then the console is doomed from those numbers.
 
Not crossplaying with PC eliminates actual aimbots and wall hacks/radar.

Using controllers to enhance aim assist and reduce recoil isn't in the same ballpark as the cheats on PC.

Again, because the game is on PS4 there are aimbots on console as well. There were videos posted in this thread even, of aim bots being used on the leaked PS4 beta over a week before it was released.
 
Played a dozen rounds and I shit you not, half of them were full of cheaters. At this point, they can fucking have it. There is no way to combat this on a continuous basis.

The one positive from this beta - it saved me $100.
 
Too many hackers
Controllers come with aimbot preinstalled
Small maps with enemies spawning behind you
Needing to jump, dive, crouch every second to be effective
Zero strategic gameplay
Low ammo so good players have to die after taking out a few bad players

Jumped in on PS5 today enjoyed a few games but I switched to PC just to play MKB and the lobbies were fully of sweaty retards sliding and trying to do 360 dive shots. Also 100% ran into a cheater in my 2nd match.

This is exactly what I was worried about when they showed the new movement. I figured once people got into it the bullshit would start.

I just know a month in it's gonna be just as sweaty as MWIII full of bullshit weed skins. If and it's a big if I buy it it'll be physical on ps5 so I can trade/sell it and will lower the risk of cheaters. I know it's common on console as well but you can't convince me the number of cheaters isn't higher on PC.

Every time a new pvp shooter comes out, I can't help but think how much better Destiny 2's shooting and movement is along with its map design to showcase it.

Nothing here in BO6 is cohesive, it feels like every part of the game was made in isolation and slapped together.

Destiny 2 did lots of things right. PvP wasn't one of them
 
Damn it. Still on the fence on whether I want to play the beta as I really will probably only play Zombies on full release
And I would have to uninstall some stuff to make room for it :(

Don't. As someone that's pushing towards 400 Level in MW3, I've tried to cut this beta some slack, but this one is just off in its state now.

Also, if you have have a data cap by chance, just save that data for something else.
 
The beta is cool, but I thought I was going to move from MWIII wholesale, but I might actually keep it installed tbh, it feels so much more relaxing going back to MWIII after some of these BO6 lobbies.

Even if something is the best selling game of all time, if it has EOMM, all it means is that a big portion of the population is ignorant to what is going on and/or low IQ.

EOMM is sinister. While Activision hasn't outright stated its presence, with all the evidence out there, the fact they have a patent for it, a white paper…. the only plausible explanation a reasonable person has is it's in the game.

Hence the ping variation, disbanding of lobbies, etc.

Low effort meme gifs… is that all you have to discredit?

Proof:

Of course, this comparison doesn't take into account the player counts on PlayStation and Xbox consoles, which data has suggested represents close to 70% of the total Call of Duty player count in the past.
 
And? Do you have numbers for console because without them your point means nothing. On PC player counts decreased based on publicly available information and it's reasonable to assume the same for console.

The article is outrage clickbait. It uses just Steam numbers, when it also launched on Battle.net on PC and completely omits console numbers.

Because that's all the info that's out there. Console stats aren't published. It's not clickbait when it's published facts.

There is a reason for the decline of a superior platform. PC is growing everywhere else except Call of Duty…. Why is that? Especially when it's more accessible than it's ever been.
 
Just hit level 30
Seriously, someone got a x3 headshot at once with a sniper rifle from the other side of Rewind. C'mon that's some BS.
It's too damn sweaty. Going to play Astro since I didn't yesterday

And would people enjoy it the same if they knew they were being manipulated? What's fun about that? I could never look at COD the same way after I found it out and countless other people couldn't as well.

I would rather lose every game if I knew I was legitimately losing them. Not where the games serves me a few wins to make me feel good about myself and then decides to frustrate me in order to try to hook me to keep on playing.

SBMM =/= EOMM

Just like loot boxes and other such mechanics, gaming is becoming very predatory in that it tries to capitalize on people's bad behaviors (such as addiction).

Look at a game like Socom 2/3, Halo 1-Reach, COD4, GOW1-3… people played those games because they were good and fun. They never had nor needed any such mechanics. Their matchmaking was mainly CBMM which matched people based on connection quality.
I have no idea how my team is doing until the game ends. I just run around going pew pew.
 
Is the nuke supposed to be enabled in the beta? I had joined one match where shortly after I joined I died to the nuke…
 
I saw a video of some guy saying that Treyarch focused mostly on small to medium sized maps for this CoD? If that's true then I don't know if I'm going to bother with the full game tbh.
 
Cronus is pretty damned prevalent, I'd wager---it is capable of some ridiculous nonsense.

And I think it's hard to stop because they can just push out another update once a developer makes it where they can be detected, so they come back again.

It was one of the reasons I stopped playing Overwatch as much as I used to. I'm on console, but once I got up to like..I don't remember, Diamond rank? It was in basically every game.

Some Widowmaker snap aiming headshots left and right.
 
so i played many hours, it feels like COD with omni movement yet the maps are worse and smaller. Man, the maps are tiny and the spawns are just as bad as all COD's, when will they fix it.

Not buying this but i guess the changes will be cool in warzone. Also, it feels like nobody online is talking about it anymore.
 
I had fun in last weeks beta. Haven't played much this weeekend. Sad to read there are so many cheaters again. I hope they resolve it by release.
