It does let you use it.
I didn't get the bribes either, my roommate bought the season pass on his account. I also leech PS+ from him, so technically my account is the main on his PS4 and vice versa. Maybe ATVIAssist can do something about it, but I doubt it.
Hit master prestige this weekend as well. Have diamond shotguns, snipers, AR's. Only 3 submachine guns, the knife, the dingo and 2 pistols to go. That 3 round burst pistol is going to be a bear...
Was disappointed we don't get a bonus rare chest collection and weapon bribe for hitting 10th prestige...
Do them in hardcore. I got diamond in no time and I'm not all that great.

Anybody want to play on Xbox tonight?
I'm up for pretty much anything not hardcore or S&D.

I hit master prestige too yesterday and I've managed to complete all of the Specialist challenges so now I have the gold challenges unlocked. Did the Firebrand helmet challenge but the 6 kills with the purifier is proving a bit tricky to nail though it could be that by the time I started working on it it was getting a bit late and I was tired. Will be trying again today with a fresh head.

Random question/observation. Has anyone seen what seems like a team getting killstreaks too fast? Just played a game on Combine and the other team had two cerberuses, a wraith, and a RAPS in the air and the score was 31-21. Is that even possible? I checked the scores and nobody had gone like 10-0. The three top guys were like 7-2, 7-1, and 6-3. Needless to say, we got crushed. This was TDM on PS4.
Nice, marshal is the best secondary in the game imo. Level it up for dual wield to become unstoppable.
I also got the marshal from rare case recently. Maybe the odds of getting guns from cases are now slightly higher.
Yea I've seen that happening on PC, the enemy team had 4 wraiths and 4 RAPS's up in just 1 game of Kill Confirmed on nuketown, their team had 1 guy who was kicking ass the other 2 were good and the remaining players seemed to be newcomers. Our team was trying hard to keep up with taking down the aerial scorestreaks but we just could not keep up with it in the end.
I suppose its doable if shit starts snowballing but I've played my fair share of games now to see that something is a bit off when that sort of thing happens.
Also I think I ran into my first proper hacker yesterday, the guy was owning the shit out of my team. Pulling crazy shots like jump shotting from behind corners and absolutely nailing his shots. No one could touch him and the server sort of began lagging but this guy was still kicking ass untill he magically timed out after which the game returned to normal.

Yeah people getting this Killstreaks pretty fast now...
Almost all lobbys ive played in had a ridiclious amount of Streaks going...
And i had one guy that was constantly respawn killing us. Just repoted him for doing such thing.
I just grinded the last couple of days to get my 75 wins. Man was that annoying and brutal.

Ante up is da shit.
No but seriously I've been seeing this happen a bit as well a few weeks ago. I starting wondering if there was some sort of exploit going around. When I went into theater mode I found that most of them were just running combat focus.
Maybe that's what's happening in your games.

Yeah, I was thinking that was the case, but only one guy in their top 3 were running Seraph.
It just seemed....off. It seemed highly unlikely for those 4 very high killstreaks to get called in that early in the match (31-21). I played another dozen matches and didn't see anything like that happen again, but it did feel like there was some sort of an exploit happening in that game. Maybe it was just my imagination.
Lol, 7v1 Uplink match. Not fun at all, why this still keeps happening?
Joined. Nice, you are just 3 prestige master levels higher than me

Safeguard on Redwood is a mess. A delightful and incredibly one-sided mess.
Defending in the first building the robot has to go through is incredibly easy. One person on the staircase, one inside in a corner, and one outside somewhere and you basically isolate them. Unless they bum-rush the robot over and over to get it outside. But at that point the defenders are racking up kills.
And then once the robot is outside, turning the first corner is damn near impossible for the attacking team. Yet again there is a staircase by the bridge overlooking the spot, plus several other good sightlines.
First time playing that map + gametype combo I went 36-2. And both deaths were after I was completely out of ammo and was running around trying to find a new weapon - messing around, mostly.
Only way we were able to get the attack through was because the defending team was incompetent + I had a Cerberus and wraith that #rekt them.

Looks like the 10th specialist may be coming soon-ish through completing contracts.

This is a disgrace that they can't program in a re-roll. I wont spend any keys until I hit my 75 wins in case it duplicates. I'm not even sure doing that makes logical sense, I still might get a dupe after, or maybe they could pull their finger out and fix it.

Limited time? How would that even work?
Why not make it permanent for Season Pass owners? This limited time thing is stupid although its slightly better than being locked behind supply drops.

Rise is also terrible for Safeguard, especially if you play with a poor team against a team who know how to choke the hell out of you on early doors, if they rush and setup camp over the middle f the map it's game over, especially on Groundwar with 9 people. I always back out when it comes up as it's a horrible map.
Call me cynical but I bet the onl reason he is now in contracts (and the reason these were introduced in the first place) is because of the backlash from the supply drops.

That's usually either a glitch/bug, or a punishment for cheating.
ZNS Trailer just got put up for us Xbox folk.
Also, FINALLY beat the easter egg. What a pain in the ass.

Congrats, it definitely was a pain at first. It's much easier compared to ZNS.
say wut
And thanks! I feel the Boss is the only challenging part of this particular Easter Egg. If anything, I've heard that ZNS is just tedious. But I haven't given it my full attention yet.

whats the point of zombies?
played a few rounds but got bored quickly

There are some obscure objectives to complete that add to the ongoing story. Plus the inherent enjoyment that a lot of folks find in survival modes.
Yeah, that's what I meant. It's incredibly annoying and tedious. Der Eisendrache feels miles easier to do.

I hope Infinity Ward can shake up the zombie formula this year. I would like to see something fresh and different from Treyarch zombies.

Have I missed anything? I might be able to play soon. It's been quite a while.
Personally, I never got anywhere past upgrading the bows, and that felt like it took eons. Is it easier solo?
I think it's way easier solo. I did it that way just by getting the Storm bow, though you should prepare for the boss battle with Aftertaste and having Quick Revive.
Haymaker is supposedly a big help, too, but I had two LMGs to deal with the Panzer Soldats. D:
Monkeys are good to have, though.
Unfortunately, it's still going to be round-based and have Easter Eggs.
I'd like a shakeup, too, or just something different instead of zombies. Exo-Zombies was cool and had a great cast, but like the rest of AW, I fell off it before DLC 2 hit.
I'm not a fan of Haymakers personally or Shotguns outside of the starter pump action one (can't remember the name right now)
For me, I just went PaP M8A7 and Storm bow for the fight.
Storm Bow is the best. Though Void is the least favorite of people I have fun with it. All the little Keeper heads nibbling away is kinda funny.
Boss fight for ZNS looks A LOT easier, though.
Eventually I'm still going to need to have Shadows of Evil's completed.
I need to do that as well but its such a chore and not too big a fan of Shadows to begin with.
I love (maybe even adore) the aesthetic and characters of Shadows of Evil, but I've grown very tired of the long setup to open machines and get to PaP. I'd probably play it a lot more if there was a "survival" mode that had the PaP open from the start and you could just progress through the rounds like you would with a regular zombies map. Maybe put a power switch somewhere on the map instead of requiring the beast lanterns.
I feel the same. I love the setting, aesthetic, characters. Pretty much all the lovely wallpaper. But the set up is pretty long for the pack a punch.
I love that Der Reise was remade. That's my map I use to level up.
The Giant is such a great map, aged like wine. I'd love to see another Rezurrection DLC except with remakes from Black Ops/BO2
Also would have loved a Moon remake with that loading screen they hinted at
RIP Griffin Station D:
I'm hoping it's coming, but after replaying it I'm not sure how I feel about the Astronauts and the Excavators. Challenging map for sure and I absolutely love the atmosphere and overall art direction on it.
