COD 4 Beta Thread

I'm thinking the M4 is a little powerful. I was getting decent kills with the M16. I might go like 10-9 or something. Playing Team Deathmatch on Fallen with the M4, I usually end up logging at least 30 kills with the M4. That seems to be the weapon everyone else uses too.

Going back on this, I agree. Right now, almost everyone is using the M4 with red dot scope. It has very little recoil (barely noticeable) and it is good from long to short distance, so it's extremely versatile. The M16 should be more effective from long range but the M4 is pretty much it's equal in this game with the lack of recoil.


EDIT: also is there anyway get rid of the front grip on the M4? (other than equipping a grenade launcher)

Seriously, can you guys add me too? I had a lot of fun with the beta last night but only got in about 45 mins.

Just keep exiting back to Dashboard and reloading the beta until it disappears.

Update 2:
Hey Everyone --

Some of you have been receiving the "Downloading Game Settings" message for extended periods of time (more than 30 seconds). This is caused by Packet Loss, which means a file / data was lost as the server was sending it to the client.

A quick fix for this is:

- Backing out to the Dashboard and restarting the Beta.

You may receive it more than once, but don't worry, just back out again and restart.

However, I wanted to let you all know that we are aware of the issue, it has already been fixed in the main game, and we are working on getting an update out which will fix this in the beta as well.

Thanks for all the feedback, and we'll have an update out to you as soon as we can.

I'm still using the M16 for every map, I guess it's my battle rifle love from Halo, but I just love being able to pick people off from long distance without resorting to sniping/camping.
 
WOW. Rules of engagement have changed on Vacant it seems. EVERYONE is using an AK or M4 now. No more close quarters fire fights.

This is stopping me getting on at the moment. I've quit out several times but always get the message.

Same here. No amount of quitting and reloading can get rid of it for me.

In other news, I just noticed a Timeshift demo is up on the marketplace.

Quitting and going back in definitely does work; it's what I've been doing and what people on my Friends List have confirmed works for them.

Some people on the COD forums have been doing that for hours with no luck though, so it's hit and miss.

Not this time.

I had the problem a couple of times yesterday and reloading a couple of times worked. But I've tried about 15 times now, and nothing.

I hope they might raise the level maximum at some point during the beta, giving us access to the other few unlockable perks/weapons

I think that's the general idea, hasn't it already been raised once?

I've got my eye on that sniper rifle at level 23 or so...it shall be mine!

This is by no means official, but I believe the plan is to give most of the recent additions enough time to catch up level-wise (up to 11) and then to raise the cap up. Most rumors were saying it'd be up to around 20.
 
Carsh is probably my favorite map, plenty of open spaces mixed with tight alleys and houses.
Vacant just feels lika a map from an old-school shooter, just at bunch of corridors, it's ok but of the three it's my least favorite map. Overgrown is right up there with Crash, like the green, grassy open areas and plenty of mid to long range fighting going on.

If anyone wants to hook up for some beta I'm down, I'm no slouch, consistently top 3 with around 15-20 kills (record is 33 kills 11 deaths on Crash). Gamertag is: z4m

I unlocked the ACOG scope on the M4, M16 and MP5, and is it just me or does it suck? I feel that the weapons are a lot more accurate with the red dot than with the ACOG.

Also, once you get the helicopter the streak-reward thing should reset. I get rewarded for a streak of 3, 5 and 7 but nothing for 10, 15, 20. It should reset so after the helicopter, if you get another 3 kills you get a UAV, so at 10 another UAV, 15 another Air Strike and so on.
 
Had my best game yet today. I went 30-8 using the M4 at the small map. Vault is it? I forget. Regardless I started by going 12-0. I got three people with a well placed Air Strike. Completed a bunch of new challenges today too. Got to play a lot today since I only had one class all day. Love it.
 
Did any of you guys have those parents that wouldn't buy you the coolest toy for Christmas? Meanwhile, every other kid at school got the toy and talks about how awesome it is? I feel like that neglected child right now.

IW, don't be that parent. Send me my token!
 
I just played a game where I know a guy got 90% of his kills with the grenade launcher attachment, and there were 3-4 guys running around using the RPG like it was a starting weapon. It's cheap, and not fun or skillful in any way, throw them in the same boat as the automatic sniper rifle. The rocket launcher should only be able to be pulled out when there's a chopper out...and the grenade launcher attachment, well, some things are better left out of the game due to balance, IMO. I'd seriously reconsider how you let these 3 weapons be picked/chosen and have some serious drawbacks to using them.

I know you only get two per life, but you get another 2 when you respawn, kinda lame....oh well, just some weapon complaints I have.
