Either that or the two year dlc rumour is true.
Wait till you have to play the gorgon, you will LOVE the BRM
BTW enrolled and played the CoD Word League online qualifiers and we got a team with people who already participated at the Champs and kicked our asses pretty bad the first two maps. Really unlucky we thought we would reach day three but such a strong opponent so early....
I'm pretty sure our opponent will be one of the teams which qualify directly (one of them even has his own scuf sponsorship)

What's wrong with Gorgon? Thing is a beast.
I think it is the absolute worst LMG, the other ones are at least somehow competitive. The slow firerate really sucks so if you get hit before you land your shots that's it. Also moving with this thing.... I felt like I was dying the second I started to change positions or move around the map, basically a weapon where you are forced to sit in a good position. I was so glad when I got gold for it - the other LMGs are way better
Lol. Probably. Can't wait for Ghosts 2!

Ffs..just when I thought I would be happy with staying at 9th prestige they give us the ability to obtain my favorite prestige emblem of all time:
Not sure if spending a year trying to get it is worth it it though

I had a really fun HC Domination match with the MR6 Pistol and a Wraith equipped for once this past weekend. Also thinking of making another Shotgun montage sometime soon.
Looking at the patch notes, they buffed most scorestreaks including the Cerebus which is amazing when it is player-controllered. I used it in the last overtime match of Safeguard with Combat focus and I managed to get another Cerebus before the round's end. >_>

-high five- I love that prestige emblem as well. Never managed to get it in WaW but maybe this time I will.

You know, I really like Havoc for the most part.
It's hard for me to determine the best maps in the game because of everyone flying all over the place, into windows, and over cover, and the way that affects how people play them.
I do think Infection is probably the best map in the game though.

My favorites are Hunted, Infection, Havoc and Stronghold. Probably also in that order, but Stronghold and Havoc are about even for me.
Hunted is THE best map

My Drakon loves Infection! And other maps. That gun, with rapid fire. Holy shit.
Speaking of snipers, what is everyone's favorite? Mine is either the Drakon, or the SVG-100, probably, for the sheer amount of one shot kills you can get. I love the lower idle away of the Locus and Drakon though. P-06 is fun to use too.

So if I understand this correctly master prestige is level 550 and they are adding another 450 levels for a grand total of 1000 levels? So it is another 8 prestiges?
Infection can be.... too campy.. with everyone inside the house. I play domination, and the focus of that map and game mode is to simply stay inside that house and defend. Can be a bit annoying tho, I still like it, but hunted is just overall amazingJorge, it seems you've spelled "Infection" wrong.

I think it's awesome because it's one of the few maps where all playstyles can be really viable. I don't think it's campy. It has areas where offensive and defensive playstyles can actually shine in the game, which many maps don't really allow as much for. The house overwatch positions are crucial in Dom, and their are still plenty of flanking routes. It's a great example of a offensive and defensively oriented map done right. It's balanced. The house and church positions really aren't that effective at preventing people from taking B, if the people taking it position themselves well. It's a map about intelligent play. Dom has traditionally always been a bout defending, not flipping spawns, which can end up screwing your team over if the other team caps B from you, and you can't get it back. On infection, unlike most maps in the game, both playstyles can actually flourish much more than most of the maps.
Hunted is too spazzy. The spawns/capture points flip constantly, and it's ridiculously easy to get around. I don't hate it, I actually like it sometimes, but again, I feel it's a map more geared to run and gun playstyle. Same with Stronghold. Although I've grown to hate that map a good portion of the time I play it.

The P-06 is actually pretty good for swipe sniping I think, since only 2 out of the 3 shots from the burst need to hit them on any part of their body for a kill, I believe.

Agreed. All the modes (or at least the ones I play) work great on it. Domination, Safeguard and Demolition are fun as hell on Hunted. Safeguard is especially hilarious when the robot reaches the bridge at the end.
Definitely my favourite map in the game.

Are there any good build guides online? I am trying to go the spectre knife route, but I am not sure what the best perks to equip are. I love going invisible and popping out and getting knife kills.
I imagine Ghost is a must. Tactical Mask so you don't get stunned, and probably Hard Wired to cut down on 'Sixth Sense' and 'Tracker'. You could probably double up on your second perk with Tracker too to make it easier to find people.

Thanks man I will give that a shot. I figured the build I threw together last night was far from the best.

Ground war Safegaurd on Hunted can be amazing.

Oh god, I haven't done that yet because I rarely play Ground War. I can only imagine the anarchy at the end.
It's a great way to get gravity spike kills.
No when you reach prestigemaster after completing level 55 of prestige 10, you just continue leveling. Prestigemaster = Level 56+, I'm something like 67
Full patch notes-
https://support.activision.com/arti..._Duty_Black_Ops_III&fs=Search&pn=1#collapse01
Not liking some of the changes.
"Aerial Scorestreaks must be within a minimum distance from the map before locking onto them with a Launcher."
67 already? Damn.

It's so much fun. An open straight line, and so many angles to attack it from.
The end portion can just be a total meat grinder. Haha

Did they just make rapid fire useless on burst weapons? Seems like it.
I assume it still decreases the delay on sniper rifles?

Wow. How many years would it take to get to 1000?

Dammit I only play objective modes now, that really sucks.
Good question. That does seem unnecessary.
I do like some of the changes, like trading in your dupe items for more keys, but I am not of fan of how they keep tinkering with the weapons as well as the time it takes to earn your specialist ability; especially when you're trying to earn all those stupid double kills to get the armor and helmet for a particular class.
Why can't I play with a specific friend on my list on ps4? We both have nat type moderate but we never appear in each other's list on the social menu, I can see other people.
I've got a static ip on my ps4, have put it in dmz and have opened a shit ton of ports. I was getting open nat after I did this, but since the patch it's gone back to moderate.

Kind of LTTP but when do you think of the escort mode? First time I played it was yesterday. It is fun but I ended up dying a ton so I am not sure how often I will play this though.
KDR rules all in every game mode unfortunately. I always go for captures and end up almost leading the team in them. Problem is I go 10-25 for my trouble so it gets to the point where I stop going for captures because I get frustrating dying non stop. Yet when look at the scoreboard the person on top is the guy that goes 30-10 with no captures defends.
The only stats that should be shown are the defends and captures. The kills and death in game stats should be removed so people actually go for objectives and don't play the game to boost their KDR. Problem is that will NEVER happen.

Just did a few games after not having played for a while. Did they patch out the guitar riff that would occur at the start of the game?
