My fucking piece of shit controller decided to kill L2. Goddamnit. No CoD for a while until I fix it manually or just buy another controller....FUuuuuuuuuuck. Also realized I lost my PS4 headset. Makes for fun parties lol. I am still loving the campaign. It's freaking great IMO.

There's regular round based zombies, which is what I'm talking about. Then there is Nightmare mode, which I'm pretty sure uses normal weapons and loadouts, you unlock that by beating the campaign. I think its just the campaign with zombies as enemies instead of grunts with guns.

thanks. I suck at pvp, but I really like pve co-op. I am debating whether or not I should try this out.
 
Lol, this is impossible solo. I managed to open the door after a hundred deaths and then instantly got shot and died as it doesn't auto checkpoint instantly.
 
I may end up buying the season pass of this. I can see myself playing this for a long time.

I don't normally buy season passes but I agree with you in that I'll be playing this for a LONG time. So it only seems right to purchase it.

good PS4 players, what headset are you using

I recently bought the Turtle Beach Stealth 400 wireless headset. So far, it's treated me good. No complaints.
 
So I wonder if they will do specialist DLC this time around.

I'd pay at least $5 each(maybe even $10 if they have full dialog like the others with original VA) for specialists based on:
Alex Mason
David Mason
BO3 "player" (this has to happen though and is fairly simple to implement)
Reznov
Woods

I feel like no one is using the rocket launcher against UAVs except me. Every UAV I get stays up the entire time, but I shoot them down immediately.

So after I heard from friends "yo you got to play this, CoD is good again" non-stop I decided to red box it to see how it is. I'll admit I have to eat crow here. While not as good as, this is the best CoD MP since MW1/2. It's surprisingly good. It only took treyarch a few tries, but I think they got it down pretty good. Good maps for the most part, tight gunplay, no lag, seemingly good hit detection, ok variety of weapons.

It performs pretty good overall for MP, the only lag I have is from my new TV that I have to compensate for. Going to direct connect the ps4 to it later instead of hopping through my AVR and seeing if that helps it more. But Damn, this TV makes even this look pretty good via upconversion and overall PQ.

Now I need to find a decent weapon that fits my style. Rank 13 kinda limits me though for now I guess.

Shooting down scorestreaks is my favorite thing to do. If only I could hold more than two shots.

This is the single thing i'm enjoying most about Black Ops 3. Shooting down UAV's didn't see to be as big a thing in the last two games and I'm glad its back.

F your UAWV's. =)

I have a gold XM-53. That should tell you something, lol ;)

It's free points! I don't understand why more people don't do it.
 
PS4 version good? Read to stay away from PC version, friend has it on PS4 and I had a blast with BLOPS II, this hold up?

Typical musings about COD games being casual poop aside, is it fun for what it is?

Just finished all the headshot challenges for the XR-2 so I'm working on completing the rest now. Also about finished with all of Battery's different outfits which is fun to work for.
 
How do you PS4 players make clips? This is the only PS4 game I've played that completely lags the dash so its kind of a pain in the ass sometimes
 
I am just level 13 but i see people all ready at 50 or prestige 1 all ready i mean damn they have been playing this whole weekend and not stopping i just take my time but the disadvantage is no fun but i am having fun when i kill them though.

I notice this with a ton of games and it always blows my mind. I guess there are people who literally sit in front of their TV for 12 hours straight and play COD. It's always funny when a beta goes live and I jump into it after a few hours and there are already people at max level. It's like, damn, take a break, guys.
 
First try at creating an "advanced" emblem.

The ripper lunge is funny. Not quite as instantaneous teleport-like as the commando lunge was in MW2, but it won't give up when it latches onto someone.

Knifing is in a pleasant spot. Not overpowered, not completely useless like in the games with no unlimited sprint. Still pisses people off.
 
Hah yeah I gotcha, I use shareplay a lot.

I kinda meant that when I hit the share button mid game, it takes a very long time mid match since it slows it down a lot.

BTW, I love the Pharo

Oopsies. I usually just spam Square til it saves then get the hell outta Dodge. I think there were issues in Need for Speed as well, so I guess we should get used to the slowdown.

Nice clip. I hate burst weapons haha
 
I suck so bad at this :( my K/D ratio is always below 1. I don't get it, I've been playing for 3-4 hours today and I still suck. I feel like I've gotten worse.

I picked up H5 the other day having never really played any Halo multiplayers before and after 3-4 hours of that I had gone from 0.5 K/Ds to 3-4. I know they're different games but I don't get why I'm so bad at this when I have the basics (aiming, shooting) down.

Any tips?

Shooting isn't the most important part in COD - it's map awareness. Know the map, look at your radar, listen to the sounds and don't stand in the open.

Any known tips to increase the odds of successfully connecting to a friend's group? It feel like winning the lottery...
 
The campaign has so little connection to the rest of the series that I'm considering it a spin-off.

Went 41-10 with a stock Sheiva (just unlocked) - damn this thing has so much potential: Reflex + Quick Draw + Extended Mags + Rapid Fire will make it a beast. Reload animation is sexy too.

I wish titanfall had this freerun mode. It's really cool, but I don't like the wall running in this game. It's not as fluid as TF.
