I think if the other player has a full-auto the swing gets interrupted. But yes, the game is buggier now... So much pop-in for the new maps. Or maybe it is my connection.
That wall shit needs to be fixed, though, like yesterday. Matchmaking is still slow, too.
Oh man didnt make it yesterday but Ill try to be on tonight and Ill add you! Im gonna be rusty myself

I also noticed that the framerate on Beach was a little janky. Definitely not as solid as the other maps are.
You've never played Bookstore then.

I've played it a few times, never noticed it on that like I did on Beach, though. Not sure why.

If you are going to put so much emphasis on this meta game, don't penalize me when you throw me into an integration match that already has my box being opened by a team that has only been interrogated once.
Edit: if you aren't playing with a team of friends then MP goes from being something really great to a fun yet extremely frustrating experience. Every single match I play now has players dashboarding out, even if we are winning, so that they won't lose survivors on the meta game. Therefore most matches end up having loop-sided teams and therefore loop-sided matches.

Beach is good fun, if a bit too large for the amount of players. But there are some interesting hiding places-- I got caught with a shotty rounding corners, etc.
Ok good, it's not just me noticing this! As much as I enjoy the MP, I'm done playing without friends on. I've had way too many terrible experiences without friends playing. I'm also kinda cheesed by the paywall weapons and perks.
Beech is a decent map (a little too big, but alright) whereas I'm not a fan of financial district as everytime I played it most of the firefights happened in the same spot (in the bank).
Yesterday I shot a guy down, heard a "punch" sound but there was no animation and then I went down....it was SO bizarre (no one else was around us lol).

I think we weren't compact enough as a group on that survivors match at Beach. It was my first one on that map and my first on survivors so yeah. Anyway we had decent matches on supply raid even if we didn't win enough, definitely better than playing with randoms for me.

Finally finished my second twelve weeks! On the new maps, I'm not really a fan of beach I think it's a bit too big. Financial district was fun though I thought, I like the setup on that one.
Going to take a break from it now, still have to do some single player to get the platinum and then onto the next, can't believe my backlog is already growing and we aren't even a year into this gen, no games to play on PS4 pffff

Yeah just finished a game there on supply raid. Annoying. Other than that, I really like the new maps. Running into more and more laggy players though. Man what is up with PSN lately? Good thing I always roll in a party or this would be unbearable.

Good comeback but damn that other team was shitty. I mean I suck too, but I know not to walk into a corner, keep looking into the corner, stay there, and not aim at anything in particular. And the charger didn't even have a melee weapon. lol
Yup, it's an ongoing process.
Of making the game shittier.

Any one wants to do private matches? Seriously tired of playing with stupid randoms.
Had a weird freakout earlier today. I'm guessing it's because one of our guys left but I decided to upload it. I ended up invisible to everyone while everyone else ended up appearing invisible and idle at spawn. One of the friends I was playing with said they had trouble damaging the other team.

New maps are pretty awesome. Both are pretty solid. I sort of wish the maps were in the patch rather than having to go download them from the store. Heard people are still having issues trying to download them.

I've seen that glitch on PS3 too. Very annoying, but rare.
I think I remember it happening on PS3 too but couldn't remember. Just sucks because we were about to win. Them's the breaks.

This happens in all ND mp games I think. Happened a lot in UC2, and that looks exactly like the rematch glitch in UC2. Basically if you played the same team over and over, you would get the glitch. Don't know if that was ever fixed or not.
What matchmaking problems are you experiencing? The only things I encountered where long wait times (which go away by leaving matchmaking and going back in, takes like 1-2 minutes before I get placed in a game) and more than often my team or the enemy team have 3 players rather than 4.
Maybe it's your connection :-??

Anyone got a party going? All alone here.

make sure the pudding isn't too soggy but that just ruins everything
I'll be jumping on in a couple.
I usually don't play or enjoy competitive online games, and originally I planned to just grind out the multiplayer trophies as quickly as possible for the Platinum trophy, but the multiplayer here is surprisingly enjoyable and addictive. After finishing the Firefly journey yesterday, I'm looking forward to starting the Hunter run later this week. I'm not that great a player but I've found a loadout that works for me and I can tell I've improved since I first started, which is encouraging.
Interrogation is horrid, though.

This is key. I am slowly improving with my new loadout: 9mm, Variable Rifle, Damage Marker 1, Hawkeye 2, Explosion 1, and Sharp Ears 3. At least if I hit someone they are marked and they glow, which helps my planning; damn, Covert 3 fuckers, tho. Also, I am not the greatest of an aimer yet, so the increased cheap ammo on the Variable helps a bit. I found the Support loadout worked at first while I learned the game, at least you gain parts!
Add me (gaf name is PSN name) if you want to play sometime-- I have a good group of guys who don't mind playing with new players. I am regularly on Fri, Sat, and Sun 11am-2pm Eastern time with some nights, but rarely during the week.
I played with randoms for the entirety of both my campaigns and still had tons of fun on Survivor and Supply Raid, but for the most part I stayed away from Interrogation because it had the most potential for fucked sessions, and it's extra infuriating because it's a gameplay mode with much more nuance but a lot of randoms play like they're on Supply Raid.

Can someone explain the ethics or otherwise of execution stealing. I'd like to do it right, but it isn't totally clear to me.
people often get killed by trying for the special execution because it is rarely safe, or the guy crawls behind cover and gets healed. But if you have a clear finishing shot, you can get accused of kill stealing because the K/D ratio is all about the executions, not the downs.
In no party games it doesn't seem to matter that much, it is about winning the match and an execution is always 5% towards that goal, but in party games people seem to get precious on the chat channel.

I voted for Downtown haha
If the guy who downed the opponent is nearby, you leave the kill to them.
If the downed enemy is about to revived or escape to cover and be healed by their teammate you take the kill.
When I'm with a party, we communicate so it doesn't matter if a partner runs in and grabs the execution (in fact, sometimes I'll even say "I downed him, I'll cover if you want to execute"...like in interrogation) because we're working together. I hate when I'm playing with randoms and a guy hides while watching me in a firefight, then runs in and takes the execution for the sake of wanting the K/D, or doesn't revive me and goes for the execution instead. Outside of those two issues, I couldn't care less if you got the execution when I got the down.

Don't take other peoples downs. Pretty simple. In combat, I'd somebody is going for the heal you should be going for the healer and go for the double anyways
