I was able to get in, but now it just searches for games and can't find anything. No issues on PS4.
I got back in as well, but no matches to play in. I poke treyarch, activision, and xbox support. i doubt i get an answer until after whatever this is is fixed and then it will be generic did you do this?

Is it common? I wonder why wouldn't they patch it then
I was looking in the lobby
I joined your game but I was put on the other team and you destroyed us
Need to recharge the battery on the DS4 for now

I think Awekening is the last DLC I'll buy for CoD, the whole thing sort of died out in just a month and just like almost all DLC its just a flavour of the month thing as the same shit seems to be the case with the Battlefield 4 DLC maps ( excluding a few dedicated servers ). Kinda shame as I've been looking forward to some new maps but the "vanilla" maps just seem like favourites to many. Mind you, this is on PC where I think the playerbase is much smaller then on consoles.

Not the lobby, the lobby leaderboard. It's below the create a class, scorestreaks, and black market if I recall correctly (it's an option near the bottom left of a lobby). A lobby leaderboard shows the SPMs, kills, deaths, and other important stuff related to the game mode (captures, defends, assists, defuses, plants, it depends) of everyone in the lobby at the same time. Somebody who looks level 223 in a lobby might actually just be level 55 when looking at the lobby leaderboard (you need to specifically remember their PSN and search for them).
Edit: Looking at their combat record does NOT show you their true level.

Its really strong still on PS4, I get insta matched on Eclipse only modes 24x7. But yeah this and Battlefront are still really strong on console and virtually dead on PC.
I think Overwatch would be the one game that thrives on PC post release, since its Blizzard.

Servers fine for me on ps4, enjoying some double wep xp. DM almost over, just the SVG sniper left, what a piece of garbage it is. Default sites are utterly ridiculous, its twice as loud as any other gun unsilenced, total shit. Thank god I finally got my bloodthirsties on the combat knife, what a pain that was.

For those who asked, im UK but pretty much exclusively play hardcore FFA which annoyingly isnt joinable.
Oh and quick new map review, spire is shit, that lava one that looks like halo 5 is quite good, japanese garden is good too, mad max one is pretty average.
Crpto key count up to 1100 now, which averaging 4 drops per 100, rounding off the cashback keys to 5 per a time equals almost 50 rares to open, which in COD point terms is about 60 quid.

I stopped buying CoD games on PC after BO2. PC gamers just don't care for games like CoD (games built on season passes and dlc) for the most part.
I can understand that but I got BO3 on PC mostly for modding and Zombies.

Agreed. I have a love hate relationship with safeguard. Nothing more frustrating than being the only one on your team moving the robot the entire game and then right when the robot is near the end, instead of your team rushing in together as a group, they would rather sit back and camp.
On the flip side when you're trying to stop the other teams robot, instead of having at least two people have RPG's in order to keep the robot down, people would still rather sit back and camp or hunt for kills.
I'm almost always in top 3 of my team in safeguard wins while usually having the least amount of kills.
These days I'm always surprised when a teammate actually does the objective.

Anyone noticing a much reduced player pool with DLC 1 installed on Xbox One or is it just me?
lots of issues with match making on XB1 today

You could have just used a specialist ability to take down the RAPS. The annihilator especially is great at this. The Hellstorm missile also one shot RAPS.
Finally. Been chasing destroy a RAPS before it deploys for awhile now. I either get a Power Core and the other team is terrible so there is never RAPS, or my team gets decimated and it's difficult to get streaks.

These zombie maps feel to bloated and complicated, I wish they were more like the WaW and Blops maps.
Love the Giant map.

It's k. You can just burn it for a whopping 20 cryptokeys. You'll be set for life.
I motion to remove your posting privileges.
I was wrong on the K/D ratio because it only shows the the stats for the mode you are currently playing
Iron Jim is silly goodness. Finally got a weapon in the BM.
Yeah, I feel like at least in those maps (especially in BO) the balance between the easter eggs/story and the basic premise of round after round survival was much better. Fast track to Origins and you can't really survive without pursuing the side "objectives".
I feel torn about it a bit, though. I love the old maps for the simplicty of surviving, (and grateful they brought back Der Reise for BOIII), but I like being driven to go around doing something as well. Ah well.

I don't think it's worth it. If I remember correctly it's something like a 13% increase to your range.

Do any of you guys play at night? Most of my friends have moved on to other games, and this game is very frustrating with its match making when you play alone. I only really like to play TDM or kill confirmed.

But....but Domination..

I guess I should also ask, does it have any negative effects?
No negative effects at all.

It only increases your max range though. Meaning even though you'll hit from farther away, the damage you'll be doing is the minimum possible damage (in short, you can hit from farther away but all you're really doing is giving yourself more hit markers).
Yeah, which is why it isn't all that good. It doesn't have any negative effects though which is what he was asking. I think the only thing that gives any negative effects is the Suppressor right?

Technically it can be argued that rapid fire gives you more recoil, but that's a given.
