Do it I love the gun, what also helped me, was to change the red dot, to special, the yellow circle with the arrows on the side.
Maybe because I'm old and don't see the little dot so good when the action starts ^_~

Pump shotguns will become useless if they are not one shot in a low TTK game like COD. Take CS for example it has a higher TTK than COF but shotguns are one shot kill at CQC range there too.

I finished the campaign last night, finally, after the three or four false finishes the game presents you with.
I really don't know what they were thinking with the campaign - I've played most CODs since MW2 (I missed Blops 1 and Ghosts) and this was easily the worst. I never thought a video game could give the impression that it loves the smell of its own hypothetical farts before, but here we are.
Just to stick it's middle finger up at me one last time, the game didn't pop the trophy for completing on Hardened either. I look at my level list and it doesn't believe I finished mission 2, which I absolutely did (and got the trophy for). Ugh. Fuck this game. Not sure why more of a stink isn't being kicked up about the online connection bullshit for the SP campaign either.
Can't wait to get into multiplayer with all of the server and lag issues that have been complained about in the past 48 hours.

A complete blast. I might suck at FPS games but I still love to play.
Honestly I don't get the snobby hate for this game... its a COD game, not a work of art.

For me it's running near perfect, one disconnect, one match with bad lag in over 8h of play time. BO1 one the other hand was a mess in the beginning.

It's certainly no Titanfall despite half-heartedly trying to crib off it.

Man, the campaign really does go completely off the rails. Doesn't really make any sense but I'm enjoying that at the moment at least.

From now on all RPG's need a stupid clearly American guitar riff when you level. I demand this of all games now. I am going to finish my Jack and Coke and make another batch of Freedom fries!

im having a lot of fun..still laugh at the riff though, i like how they seem to have embraced the feel of it. It's full rambo now.
I've died a lot triying to land some jumps too, it's really cool to kill while wall jumping and stuff.

I never realized how many kills I used to get from knifing. As someone who always trys to play mid range, this whole knifing not being one hit kills really hurts my pushes.

I don't think I've had a single game of Kill Confirmed end without it being a timeout.
After many hours on multiplayer, I can say that this is still CoD for rat kids, and made me realiza, again, how good CoD4 was.
This is so fast paced that is not even funny. Floor slide, unlimited sprint... enemies are everywhere everytime. You still can be shot from 1000 places, and if you have hight ping, you'll likely lose all 1vs1 trades.
And it still have the air jumping shitfest AW had, not at the same level, but it's still there.
We have the specialists also, with their unbalanced abilities that violates the gameplay and elevates frustration sometimes to scary levels.
Futuristic CoDs are shit.

The bow-wielding chick is by far the best specialist. Anyone agree?

Same, keep forgetting it and the other players seem to be used to it by now. They just keep on shooting, died so many times because of it.
Finished the SP yesterday. That was just awful. What a waste of time. Don't know where to begin. Story sucked, missions were boring and repetitive, characters were annoying etc. I did't expect Last of Us kinda good, but still. This was just horrible.
It's only 2 hit kill from the front and if they are at full health.
Even just a single hit from any weapon will put their health down enough for a 1 hit knife from the front.

I can't fathom how people go 3-22 and 1-16 in TDM. Thanks for the loss, fellas.
Yup. Gosh, I wonder how the enemy team just got that Wraith.

This is my first time playing Call of Duty MP since Warfare. I am regularly getting something like a 0.5 K/D ratio right now.
Now, I'm not terrible at FPS either as I regularly scored highly in Titanfall and Battlefield, but the time-to-kill philosophy in Call of Duty differs vastly. In the former two games, I found that you could sometimes survive if you get caught off guard by smartly maneuvering around the environment, but in Call of Duty, the first shot seems to essentially determine the victor the majority of the time. Trying to boost or thrust jump your way out is almost fruitless in this game.
Despite this being my first foray into the MP in a very long time, I'm still having tons of fun. However, I am definitely feeling a bit remorseful that I'm not helping out as much as I can in team-based game types.

I love the guitar riff, gives me an adrenaline rush every time I hear it. Can't wait til someone uploads a file of it, gonna use it as text alert for my phone lol

Playing the campaign co-op. It's god damn awful. Possibly the worst one I've ever played. The performance on Xbox one is also terrible. I hope there's a patch on it's way. It rarely sits at 60fps

Does anyone know if there is a toggle sprint option on PC? Is this even a thing in COD games?
I can't remember it. I hope someone uploads to jog my memory.
Finally tore myself away from the still fantastic zombie mode, to dabble a bit in the campaign... It doesn't get much better does it? Not bad, just a little, eh? I only play the Treyarch entries, so to compare it to the others almost seems unfair.
Three years gave us this? Zombie mode at least is incredible - didn't think I'd warm up to the new map the way I have! Might push through the campaign, but I think zombies alone is making the game worth it for myself. Shame to see the connection problems everyone else is having, haven't had too hard of a time finding matches and having some fun

If you press Sprint once it sprints until you stop moving

Man the hit detection is still very wonky. Sometimes even when i shoot first, i still lose the battle....

Must've been an invisible wraith that could attack through buildings while the opposing team mostly went negative and had maybe 1 or 2 scorestreaks. 5v5 Evac TDM. My 3 man party got 68/75 kills and lost by 3. Thank for your comment.
I think the biggest problem people have is not adapting and continuing to play the same way that gets them killed over and over. I'd think that if you died 5 times in a row, you'd change your playstyle a bit (talking in 2nd person, not directly to you). But you're right, whoever gets caught first usually dies first.
I'm just mad that I lost a close game while doing well. Don't let guys like me discourage you, heh. Sometimes we just need to vent our frustrations and cod is great for generating anger.
IIRC, a user said they're separate saves meaning Online and local each have their own progress. I may have remembered wrong though.

Seriously?! I've been holding it down this whole time. Damn.
That's some luck. I'm wondering if 3 common boxes are more worthwhile than a single rare box.
Well you get more from them as well, so I think so.
I got a couple legendaries and rare pickups from common boxes.
Thanks - seems a bit pointless unless I'm missing soemthing...
