Actually, the maps in BLOPS 3 are too open for the bullshit hipfire style of Quake. IW is actually better for this type of play.

It has twice the range of any every shotgun in IW.

Also, I was referring more to hipfiring SMGs and ARs, anyway.

In most maps there's only one or two spots in the map that has a convergence of 4+ points to a murder hub. you stay out of the murderhub in other maps you're usually okay! Terminal is just one gigantic murderhub, except teams love to congregate into that one tiny hallway along the gift shop that inexplicably links to the whole loving map.

I had half the enemy team switching to shotguns last night, constantly.

Like switching to garbo guns would somehow make me angry because I'm dumping on lovely players by being a jetpacking and/or sliding superhero? :psyduck:

I also got invited to some MLG pubstomping clan, you better hurry back Javes, or you may lose your spot on the roster.

Using Propulsion for a full night on Howitzer/Shotgun was a bad, bad idea, I felt crippled when I switched to other loadouts, that ability is so hilariously strong if you can jump and wallrun all match long. I think this might be the one time I actually agree with their nerfing something for CWL games, it really is that strong.

Agreed, MWR :laugh:

e: UAV is 500 points now.

No why?! One reason I liked this game more than BO3 was cheaper kill streaks. I admit it I'm a terrible player and I'm lucky if I get over 1 kd's in game so having a uav be a 5 kill streak is near impossible for me to get. Not to mention everyone runs ghost so if I'm lucky I'll see a total of 2 or 3 people on my minimap and then immediately get killed.

e: e:

The hcxd in bo3 was so much easier to earn, and it was better in every way. The scarab is slow, huge, and so freakin loud. I'm barely ever killed by one, I always shoot them before they get to me.

So there's no guns in the supply drops in MWR... yet.

But I know better than that. I'm going to save my credits until the guns get added. I just know it will happen, it happened in the last 3 COD games.

I bet the justification is "but it's still 4 kills for a UAV if you use Hardline in TDM, the most popular game mode!" Also it's now 7 kills for a UAV in Dom.

And the real injustice will be when a usable shotgun is added to MWR via supply drops only.

Mill Village
Jul 27, 2007

500 points for a UAV was reasonable in BO3 because there were things that actually gave a decent amount of points in that game. I think the most you can get for a single action in this game is 150.

My MWR update was only 9 GB.

I seem to be getting about 1.5 depot credits per match which is worse than cryptokeys in Blops 3. Their microtransaction greed is already showing. Like I said, I am just going to save all my credits until the guns are added, because there will be guns.
