I think this is the first CoD game I've ever played where you can't play the new maps in a specific playlist for them. I know it's supposed to be coming soon but come on Treyarch. That's really lame that you have to wait for it. I guess I have to hope that I get put into lobbies with people who have the DLC so I can play the maps.
 
Like every lobby I'm in has the DLC maps. They're not hard to miss.


I'd still like a temporary DLC playlist though. I'm slowly getting the hang of the maps. I really love the forest area in Gauntlet.

Can you disable it by going into the store and map packs then disable?

Huh. I agree, they should have created a specific playlist from the get go.

It really does suck for both parties. The people who have it will have to rely on numbers to get what they paid for and the people who don't will be booted out every time the DLC maps load leaving incomplete games at the start of each match.

The last time I stuck around a COD long enough to encounter this specific annoyance was with BLOPS. Hopefully they learned to boot people out as soon as the map is chosen and not when the map begins to load.

I gave up on AW before DLC so I don't know what they did, but in previous COD games if you had DLC and went into the normal playlists you were only matched against players who had DLC too, so I can only presume that still occurs here.

If I pulled that off, would you die?
New zombies map is fun. Way better than Shadows of Evil. Now to try the multiplayer maps..

This is all I needed to hear. March can't come fast enough.

Did anyone find the Juggernog in the DLC map? (Or does everything switch around like "The Giant"?)

My run last night had me getting to round 13 and never finding it. Granted though, I never rode the tram... Cause I got on it... and then it left without me as I stood off of it.

It's downstairs from within the castle, through doors that open once you turn the power on. In a dungeon/prison looking room. It should also be accessible from the starting room's second floor.

With the patch i think. It costs 1250 now

They also increased its duration to 60 seconds

I guess they forgot to mention it in the patch notes. Played a bit yesterday and didn't notice any Power Cores. Cerberus buff made a significant difference though.

I wish they included Scorestreak Loadouts. Or, Ideally, the ability to make loadouts with specific specialists, scorestreaks and weapons.

Yeah I don't get why Treyarch is the only developer doesn't not allow different kill streaks with different loadouts. It's kind of annoying changing my kill streaks every time I want to switch from say domination to TDM.

Cool. Thanks.

Also... We sure their is 4 maps in the DLC? I've only been seeing Rise and Gauntlet. Over and over.
 
I haven't played Skyjacked yet, but I've played the other three.

I don't really care too much for Rise or Gauntlet, but they're not "bad" maps. Splash is a really fun map and I probably like it the most out of the three I've played.

Splash is, in my opinion, the best map out of the four. Not only is it really fun to play on, but it's pretty creative visually and a joy to move around in. I love it when treyarch makes wacky, not serious maps.

Really sucks about all the exploites though.

Only if you want to end up here lol.

Run less, listen more, watch the map. That should at least get you to a .25 haha

At least the last guy knew how to jump. Something I noticed, three out of four had some sort of zoom sight on their gun lol. I've never thought about going into Theatre and watching how these players on my team end up doing so badly sometimes, and I'm trying to picture the person playing at their house, and their thought process while watching the gameplay but I just can't.

I don't have one. Are you NA or UK? I am NA.

I'm NA (Pennsylvania). I just turned on my PS4 about 15 minutes ago, downloaded new game files, then activated the new maps via the COD Store. It was there when I started playing. Maybe back out and let it re-check game files?

What game modes are you playing?

I'd say 0.5 is fine honestly, unless you're playing Team Deathmatch where dying too much really hurts the team, but I wouldn't worry about it too much, as long as you're having fun. I'm barely above a 1 k/d in this game.

If you're struggling with tracking enemies, play something like Domination, or Hardpoint, where player movement is way more predictable. You learn eventually where all of the major spawn points are, but in Team Deathmatch it can get very random, and you can easily get caught in bad situations.

I have no idea what is going on but I see the awakening playlist but it't grayed out saying I have to purchase it. I go to the store and it already says purchased. WTF.
