What, I would assume they were trying to accuse you of illegitimately leveling up, but what do I know?
I don't know all the terms in the game. I'm new to the series and new to online multiplayer fps in general.
Reading more about boosting on Reddit I guess he thinks i was helping somebody on the other teams with their stats.
I suck in this game, my kd ratio is terrible. I was warned getting the season pass meant I would face competition a lot tougher then the base game population, recently suffered my worst L playing this game I died 43 times in a match in nuk3town Sunday.

Play in parties with me and you'll have nothing to fear except losing my Mothership's support turret.

I actually like the new counter, pops out a lot more than the old one.

I had some interesting games today.
I decided to play solo today and these are some memorable things that happened:
-I was so upset and frustrated because my teammates were so incompetent and that the enemy had captured two flags for most of the game that I unleashed my inner fury, bloodlust, nine tails, etc. to the point where I got my streaks 3-4 times over with absurd speed, and I caused my team to win. Ended up going 110-23.
-Ended up meeting my rival, my other half, my shadow link. He was essentially me in all respects (except he used an LMG). It was crazy, since whenever I called in my RAPs and Wraiths, he'd shut them down with a Power Core. Pretty much every time. There were so many Power Cores, and he eventually called in a Mothership against my team (there was no way I would dishonor myself by getting killed with my own machine, so I stayed hidden and earned my streaks up as the Power Core and Mothership were active). Eventually I get everything again PLUS my own Mothership, and thankfully he uses his last Power Core early (as I had planned). It allowed me to call in my Mothership afterwards and go to town on the enemy team and GI Unit(s), bringing forth another victory.
-Finally, a less exciting game in which our team was once again getting demolished and I got angry to the point of getting all my streaks two times over again really quickly. The only difference in this match was that I almost overlapped my Motherships, so I decided to use one near the end of Round 1 to earn a second one. I also could've earned everything again, but I was greedy, miscalculated a jump, and fell to my death.

the fact that you got the dlc isn't really that big of an issue. that's something that is overblown by the community and usually used as an excuse when people are mad.
if you're new to the series and online FPS, you're going to get crushed for a while. there is just no way around it. keep in mind that people have been playing different iterations of the same game for the better part of a decade now, so the experience level of the community is extremely high. the only way to get decent is to put the time in.

It's going to be a long battle. Best advice I can give is from the Nomad when he says your best weapon is the environment. Learn the maps and the spawn system and you will start to do better.
You probably did so bad that the guy thought you were working with the other team to feed them kills lol. Don't even worry about it man. Just keep playing and try to have fun.

^ My 110-23 anger gameplay. It starts at 2:10, for some reason trimming did not work. I joined the game that I was in before it rather late, which was why I only ended up 15-6. I still got a Wraith, though! There just wasn't enough time, sadly. I guess you can see me doing random things, but if you want skip to 2:10.

Yep, Thursday.
Cool thanks. Best start warming up today then, speaking of... I'm fucking starting to hate Glitch. Been trying to get the 20 kills with it but I can maybe manage 1 per round >.<
Think that is bad wait until you have to get two double kills shorty after glitching to complete the last challenge.
Yeah I just did that today after months of trying.
Yea thats the sort of stuff I'll save for later when I've completed most of the other challanges. I just had to stop using Glitch since it was making me arsey so I'm doing the Vision Pulse challenge now instead.

That was so wrong, why you do them like that. They'll be seeking gamers counseling.

I just had enough with it all, I couldn't take it. I had died way too many times and I was extremely frustrated. Shame on my team for making me actually have to try. I couldn't even have some fun by going through obvious and dangerous paths because they couldn't even establish map control.

How are the new maps from the DLC? Just got back into playing this game and wondering if it's worth pulling the trigger.

It's been a few iterations since I've really been into CoD, but the free weekend on Steam sucked me in and bought that MP Starter Pack thing.
Considering I never touch Zombies or Campaign, I would love it if this became a regular thing. The only silly part is that you can't Prestige with the Starter Pack. Wish they would charge a bit more money for it and let you have the full MP experience.

Yeah it's dumb that you can't prestige since you never earn enough unlock tokens to unlock everything in a single prestige so starter pack players can't unlock all the perks, guns, specialist, scorestreaks.
I'd be OK with it if you could at least access all the items at 55.
If your KD was really bad it is possible he was trying to make fun of you for boosting the other team's stats.
I was so terrible at this game when I bought it a month ago I almost sold it. Finally it clicked (and I have good weapons) and I always have a positive KD, usually around 2. My overall KD is still in the .9 range because I was so bad when I started. Keep at it. It becomes more fun.

Anyone know the release time for the new DLC on XBO/PC?
I'm assuming midnight pacific
Prestige it twice and you can.

Great, thanks. I'll just have to wait to play after work tomorrow.
I was hoping it was coming out 9 PM PST (i.e. midnight east coast), so I could play today.

Man.. just in domination holding the enemy team down with a wraith and just having one of my best games so far, and I get kicked because a teammate runs in front me as I'm shooting bad dudes. Why must this kicking be so strict ;=;
who are you? I am PSN: sandboxgod
Could use some gaf buddies to play with. I still have never used a mothership but I am usually pretty good. sometimes in top 3 and usually very positive kda (well cause I love to camp in Nomad so pretty darn hard to get killed). But sometimes I rip it up with Ripper for fun and lolz

As Spectre says, just look at my work because it speaks for itself. You can look at the videos I post on here, or just ask everyone else what they think of me. 2.72 K/D, 4.58 W/L, 539 SPM, 355 Motherships (4121 kills, 11.61 kills per use on average) so I sometimes like to think of myself as a one man army (though there are some situations that even I cannot handle). I'll add you, I'll like to play with you. I'm about to be prestige ten. It was stupid because I didn't play at all during double XP, but whatever.
I dunno, sometimes I crave the more grounded navigation. Needing to work for your vantage point and all that. The existence of hidden spots or paths, accessible only by daring jumps or climbing or crawling and stuff. Ladders that meant something.
Although, all that stuff was even more prominent in Black Ops 1 and Modern Warfare 2.
Now it seems that the only loosely hidden paths exist solely underwater.
I agree in a sense but I enjoyed the level design of BO1 a bit more for a lot of different reasons.I actually like the thruster/booster type of movement in BO3 but not in AW. I just feel like Black Ops 2 felt too sluggish to me in speed and levels in it didn't feel all too memorable. It also doesn't help that it's pretty much Nuketown 24/7 now on it.
Edit: Although for BO3, I like that there's flexibility but some limitations to movement i.e. cooldown to boosting. For AW, it felt like you just had to spam it everywhere up or down.

Just finished a game where my final score was 10,105 score. My SPM that game was 876. Got 94 kills (can't remember deaths right now). It was funny actually. The match before that one I got a Mothership (could've had three, but I died close to it twice because I was being stupid but I don't regret it since I was having fun) and won, so the game was like "alright, we're throwing the hardest people in the lobby at you." So the game was kind of close (until we reached 170 and I got my Mothership). It was hilarious since you'd see me completely mutilating the enemy while all of my other teammates were doing excruciatingly bad. It's funny how I did better against better enemies than worse ones. Video will be uploaded tomorrow.
Yeah AW damn near ruined my left analogue stick with the constant dodge boosting. BO3's movement just flows so much better due to the wall running, but I love having more control over my jumping as well.
You're encroaching on his specialization.

Finally got the calamity calling card (dark ops challenge for killing an entire team of 6 or more with a specialist weapon) last night.
Thanks for the razorback class too TheGoreMagala that's one sweet class. It's amazing how much difference a silencer makes as no one pays attention to you.

It's always difficult for me to gauge how effective the stealthy perks are, I guess I should analyse some replays and see how much times Ghost or a Silencer were a key part of me getting the kill or not.
