This seems really weird to me. Why even have a change at all on most of the attachments if the difference is a single frame? Why not just have it not affect ADS speed at all?

Probably a compounding effect with other factors (movement speed, bullet speed, etc). I’m honestly just guessing though.

The difference is something like half a frame (at 60fps). When you have 3 attachments <1 you will actually be hitting 2 frames, so it's not a bad idea to take stippled grip tape or similar to counter.

I've learned that while shields remain effective in Hardcore, knifing does not. That difference in ttk gets you blasted where you might have slashed a throat in normal games. Also thermite is absolutely lethal against shield and it makes me sad.

The CoD devs have always extremely overvalued things like one frame longer/shorter to ads and things like that. Blops 2's grip attachment decreased recoil by a whopping 2 percent. This isn't a fighting game where every frame matters. There's very few engagements that are decided by a one frame difference, especially when latency is involved.

That's true. Rapid Fire in BO3 is another example, the bonus it provides is about a 6% boost in fire rate, which isn't even really able to be perceived on most guns and does nearly nothing to your time to kill. It's just kind of a waste.

I was playing the campaign on days 1 and 2 like a hero so I can't be certain so maybe someone who did play MP can confirm, but as I understood it they were actually just part of the regular map rotation in the game modes so you could get Domination on say, Gun Runner (day) or Gun Runner (Night) randomly. I know they were a separate game mode in the beta, and I agree that NVG mode was awesome.

It’s weird because other people online seem to be saying this too, but I have played every day since launch as well as every day of both betas and I’ve never run into a night map outside of the NVG mode in the beta. Weird.

To go with dailys barely working, missions are also super bust. The AK mission for example barely works.

I don't think ADS is terrible approach and this stuff does actually add up. 5 frames is quite noticeable. I'm glad they didn't hit ADS too much in general.

It might actually end up too punishing as I don't think most of the stats are that valued. You are looking for a low bullets to hit kill gun that is forgiving (reasonable firing speed/accuracy/ADS time). They put a lot of "punishment" stats on things that make you more accurate which is by and large meaningless. An M4/Kilo/MP5 don't need them and none of them are going to make the Bizon good.

Post nerfs might make the attachments more interesting.

Hell, guess I'll just design the coolest or dumbest looking weapons if the difference is that small. I'm absolutely leveling the revolver so I can make a rifle stock revolver.

I think that’s a holdover from how intensely powerful stuff like stopping power and juggernaut were in CoD4. I’d rather see a bunch of stuff be broken in a fun way though.

Well I’ve given up on missions between not logging progress and constant resets

During that process however I did learn that hq is great for kills and weapon leveling. Park yourself offsite with a good angle and people will walk right past you with powerful hq tunnel vision

Yes, people try to score points in objective games. That tends to happen.

Wonder why there’s so much camping in this game.

I'm mostly playing this game to relive my MW2 glory days back in college, and back then I would always make classes with the theme of being character's from Gaunt's Ghosts. I decided to make a Lijah Cuu "This dude is a huge loving rear end in a top hat" so I went with the 725 and a riot shield (or sometimes a knife), and ooooh boy is he an rear end in a top hat. Pop a smoke on the domination points and just go to town on people.

I don't believe they actually reset. My 75 kills one kept going to 0 but still counted.

Yeah I guess I meant deactivating. Working on the last step of infiltrator has taken wayyy longer than it should because I played many rounds without remembering to reactivate

Also HQ caps don’t seem to tally properly

My dream spec ops mode, tbh, is one that's fully beatable in single player and probably only gives marginal XP, but lets me zone out and listen to a podcast while shooting mans. Let me grind if I absolutely want to, y'know

My favorite is when you are trying to sneak up on somebody to do a finisher and your person screams they spotted someone.
