A quick DLC question, I hope you guys can help me as I currently have no access to my PS4:
I only have the Awakening DLC. As far as I know there is a playlist for the maps of the most current DLC and a playlist with all the default maps and older DLC-maps.
Are there playlists for people who only purchased one of the DLCs? Do I join a playlist with just the default maps? Or do I join the all-old-DLC-playlist and hold everyone back from experiencing other maps than the ones I have (as least common denominator)?

I'm not 100% sure, so some one correct me, but doesn't the game only match make you with players that share the same DLC packs.
In your case, no matter which playlist you select, you would only be matched with players that have just the Awakening DLC.
Yes.

I couldn't actually play the game, got no games found like AW when other people don't have the maps
works now thou, I bet those maps was live but noone else had it....seems odd I couldn't play yet the servers was fine, don't matter now
Season pass worth grabbing for a primarily solo Zombies player? I play with groups too , but it's usually in odd times for my region so mostly folks that are foreign. I enjoy the challenge of Shadows of Evil, but getting kinda boring as the PaP ritual is time consuming/annoying and don't get me started on the swords/EE lol. Originally bought the game at launch for PS4, but sold it and started again on PC thanks to Humble Bundle.
Yeah. Besides SOE, the rest of the map's Easter eggs are able to be completed solo. Gorod Krovi is a throwback to WAW-BO1 styled maps, and hooking up with people to play is pretty easy through Reddit.

Anyone see this video from NoahJ456 called Goodbye Zombies. ?
Really good. Makes me sad to see it all over.

The remake of Standoff is glorious! Micro seems good fun as well.
I personally really liked this fan made trailer that celebrates the end.
It's funny that the zombies community is in a fractured state of sadness and complete insanity.
Yeah, maybe Blundell might be right about this taking 3 days at least. Cheeky son of a bitch. At least the Apothican Servant has been upgraded.
Thanks! Oddly, I had never thought of using Reddit for grouping up.
Yes, the subreddit is the best place to hook up with people to do the easter eggs or just chill for high rounds. Right now it's a bit of a jumble as it is with every new map release because the mindset of the community is trying to solve the easter egg.
There's a thread every week and weekend to party up with folks.
I don't know if something happened to me or the game itself, but man this has just been unplayable for me the past couple days.
There's quickscopers fucking everywhere, I'm spawning directly in front of the enemy (Hell, I once spawned directed into the line of sight of a Tempest beam), I'm constantly being matched against clans, and everyone is using some dumb ass melee weapon that seems to make them invulnerable to the bullets I'm shooting at them right before they kill me.
If this is what IW will eventually evolve into, I'm thinking I should just cancel my pre-order.

Was freaking horrendous since the DLC hit.
Almost unplayable for me and my coworkers.

I've been experiencing poor frame rate and general hitching of the game recently. I didn't know whether it was related to my ps4 sounding like a turbine or server side stuff.

You are not alone. It's definitely on Treyarch's end.

Played a few games easier after not playing in a while, damn it was rough, laggy players, some frame skips and everything else making it fairly enjoyable.
Amazing how they can kill a game by not having decent connections, the other BS in BO3 is tolerable when it works but it doesn't even work it's horrible.
The frame drops and stuttering are awful.

Has Treyarch acknowledged any of these performance issues?

Not that I've seen, driftor even reached out to them about it and nothing.

Its the worst performance I've seen of a COD in a while(Ghost's launch or maybe longer)
Shootout with someone full on 1fps
Enemy boosting on your screen near you = 15fps
Extremely delayed bullets.
1 team loading in a good 10-15 seconds ahead of the other players.
Doing this for all of my coworkers and clan members as well.

Yep, the performance tanks even harder in ground war when kill streaks are rolling in, I'm leaning towards too much content in the game, as it was never this bad a few months ago, either that or they've really fucked it up badly some how.

Kinda funny how much BO3 disappointed in Zombies and absolutely despise the campaign yet I see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJbrTgUL0Dk again and honestly im really excited/wanting Black Ops 4(please God get back in line with W@W and BO1&2).

Wow its been a week since the DLC release and they still haven't gotten very far in the easter egg for zombies, have they? Thats insane in this day and age.
How did zombies disappoint in any way? This is the best version of zombies we've ever gotten.
We're just now getting somewhere.
Oh my God, this is perfect.We're just now getting somewhere.
Also, the new calling cards are legit:

DLC ones might be good but the base map was so bad and contrived it ran my entire clan off before the first map pack even hit.
Latest Black Market Trailer featuring the shovel and TAKEO'S KATANA.
If anything, the weakest one was Zetsobu No Shima. The maps have been top notch across the board. Much better than Black Ops 2 that only had 2, maybe 3/5 maps were good (depending how you feel about Buried).
In fact, everyone'a favorite maps on BOII are the exact same design philosophy that BOIII maps use and abuse.
That's one of the best maps in the game.

Funny, people have been wanting Tak's katana for so long and it's a supply drop weapon lol
New calling cards from challenges for the new map or supply drop. Edit: Nevermind, they're Dark Ops challenges!
Shadows of Evil is an overly complicated map full of crappy places to get snagged on and mobbed by zombies,looking at you cars by the cabaret, and I hated the first time I played it on PS4. However, playing it again on PC this summer, I learned to really love it. Yeah, unlocking the PaP is a fucking chore compared to other maps, the zombies are stupid aggressive, etc., but the atmosphere, visuals, and enemy variety are only rivaled by Origins and MotD for me. I could listen to Jeff Goldblum say "with each subsequent transformation, I grow ever more confident with my tentacles," a million times.

How do you get those calling cards?
That house one is awesome.

Most likely completing the easter egg and another one for doing it with 4 people
