1. Even though I love the RAPS I try my best to stay away from them. They detonate themselves after a certain amount of time and the times that I have been killed by being near a self-detonating RAPS are too many to count.

2. I just realized that when you summon a Wraith, it also summons a Talon right below it. I noticed after getting killed by it, but I could've sworn it was the Talon that shot me, not the Wraith. Does anyone know if the Talon that spawns right under the Wraith attacks as well, or is it merely a defensive drone to take hits away from the Wraith?

I think the talon with the wraith just takes the first hit for the Wraith. However, if you are running engineer and spot the Wraith fast enough, you can kill the Wraith in one shot before it gets to the map.

just figured out that launchers are pointless as anti scorestreak weapons

need like 3 or 4 missiles to take down a raps deploy thing right? so can't even do it in one life unless you scavenge another missile, not sure if the black cell does it faster, never tried, plus lock on time etc etc
well a drakon plus FMJ does it in not even a full mag, was shooting down shit left and right with it just now

the video that was posted on reddit that inspired me to try it too

Black cells have four rockets, as opposed to the first launcher that only has two.

Blackcell has 4 rockets. They're a must for me on all of my classes thanks to heavy use of UAVs and a weak Ghost perk (I like that you have to move but I think the engaging and disengaging time of it could be a little quicker and longer respectively).

Lock time is the same.

I do like how now we know if a team-mate is locking on, very handy indeed.

If you ADS with an SMG and stock and walk that way, you don't appear on radar. I use ghosts
 
I need to add more people here. I'm about tired of the team support I have.

If anyone wants to add me on PSN, I'm Platinumb_.

Always playing Domination. If I'm with fellow GAF'ers, I'll play core. If i'm playing by myself, I play hardcore. I'm down for either though.

Been using the M8 for core and the Razorback for hardcore. I admit, the only reason I'm using the Razorback right now is because of the ice camo, lol. It's a good weapon, though. Then again, anything should be viable in hardcore.
 
Does anyone's nat just flip between moderate and open all the time?

Idk what I'm going to get from one day to the next. I set up port forwarding a long time ago on the ps4.

I hate how the only way to unlock the after action taunts is by getting them randomly in a Supply Drop. I'm almost prestiged and I haven't gotten 1 for my character. It's bullshit, I'm tired of seeing the same thing after every match.

You're probably one of the best other player I've seen on gaf

I'm loving SMGs so much I'm working on diamond camo - but my god I'm not a fan of the weevil - maybe with rapid fire
I got gold on kuda and Pharo

I started the others but... Not a fan of the rest. They just don't feel right to me

So that's on hold for now.... Might get back to it eventually lol

Got the ice camo for XR2, love it :)
 
Ugh, it's lag hour again. Every game I join is unplayable. EU region (Finland).

How does this game have so much lag problems?

Yepp, it's been lagging all day for me. Tried it at two different times today and only played a few games each time because of it. Yesterday it worked flawlessly. Turning this game on is like gambling. You never know if you're going to experience an unplayable mess or a pretty decent shooter.

Hardpoint on Nuketown might be your best bet.

Yea probably. Just a really stupid challenge,

And then in the next 2 games, I got it done lol. I just flanked the enemy, ran past a group of them so they had me in their sights, and then glitched behind them.

4/9 Specialists done.
 
I know that you can put 4 things on your primary gun - sights plus up to 3 attachments.
But during killcams I've seen people using guns with like 6 things on it.
How is this possible? (I'm on ps4)

they have the other wildcards that let you add up to two more attachments.

iirc, primary + optic + 5 attachments + 3 gunfighter cards = 10 items.

That's the only way to do it. And it'll be one of gun challenges anyway for camo.

Wasn't planning on ever prestiging but I decided to spend my last 4 tokens on making a class with nothing but a stacked gun. I'm sad to discover I do better with a stacked gun than I do with a class with perks and equipment.

Just a suggestion: prestige at least once just so you can open up a new set of challenges.

When you prestige, you get prestige rewards: 1 permanent unlock token, the ability to do a fresh restart and the ability to refund all the tokens you spent.

So let's say you're prestige 1, level 55 and you dont plan on prestiging again. You've used all your tokens but there were still weapons/equipment you wanted to try. You can get a refund on all tokens and spend them differently if you wish. I don't know if this is a one time thing or if you can do this as often as you like. Maybe someone else knows the answer to that. I might try it myself when I get home just to see what happens.

If you feel confortable staying where you are at, by all means, it's your decision. What matters is that you're having fun. Just wanted to show the 1 positive thing in regards to prestiging at least once.
 
Yeah, the movement and flanking options in the maps are really fantastic. This is challenging blops 1 as my favorite Console shooter ever. Really good.

That's another thing. There isn't a map I hate. Usually the games are loaded with bad maps, but I really am enjoying what they've done with the maps in this game.

Damn, i just found out that its possible to get duplicate items in the Black Market drops. That is disappointing :\ I just ulocked a pack and i got an emblem/decal that i already got earlier. With so many items available through the Black Market, i thought that they would avoid the possibility to get duplicate items. There was also no indication that it was a duplicate, i wish that they could have added a small notice on that. Makes it easier to know if you got a new item or a duplicate one. I like the idea with the Black Market though. Makes it something to play towards even after reaching max prestige (not that i would reach that anyway, most likely, but generally speaking).

Lol Ripper is really fun; I've been using it for the first time the last couple hours. It's fun to just use with a run and gun class when I don't care too much on what's going on.

I think I my top 3 are Battery, Firebreaker, and Reaper still though; but glad I found a 4th that I like.
 
You have me right? Cause I play often

I've had quite some full gaf lobbies

I seem to have bad timing with you. If I'm open, you're busy with life, when you're open, I'm in a party already. lol

I'll try to be more aware since I always feel bad when I see that you invited me but I just joined someone else.

Cool. I'll add you later when I get on.

What are your thoughts on the Purifier? It always takes me a decent chunk of time to earn, and when I use it I am lucky to get a kill or two. Am I doing something wrong?
