It's a tier of the battle pass. You can see on which tier you're now by the progress bar below it on the Battle Pass tab.

I've probably improved since the game came out but last night and this morning the matches seem more balanced than the last couple weeks. I'm not getting nearly as much of the lag/fake hits/ghosting etc that everyone has noticed. Most of the time when I have died it makes sense and the kill cams match my experience.

I still think netcode has more to do with this games issues than SBMM.

What does personal radar actually do, other than letting other players know exactly where you are by having a helicopter hovering over your head on the minimap?

A downside I noticed to being in a squad of 3 is that when you play the new mode you much more often get paired up 3 vs 4 and quite frankly the extra guy really is an advantage. When I’m on a 4 vs 3 we rarely lose.

I played gunfight the other day and the first time I was alone vs 2 people, then after I quit that after being bummed for a couple rounds I was alone against 3 people, which I didn’t even think was possible.

My theory is it works for everyone on your team but you. I don't see any personal UAV behaviour when it's up. I've seen a pulsing circle style scan without one, I need to pay more attention next time.

Personal radar's purpose is to show where you are at when the other team doesnt have a UAV up and/or you are running ghost. The side benefit is letting the other team see if they accidentally flip you from a spawn trap.

Apparently the way they "fixed" snake shot, is that only every other round actually fires snake shot. Test it on a wall.

Been playing for a few days and been having a blast to be honest. Never played COD multiplayer before only ever did the campaigns.

Are there any mission & challenges I should focus on at first that are easy or important to get?
The first one. It's something like "play a game of mp" "win a game of mp" and so on. You get a pistol out of it, I think. Finally got those Dragunov headshot kills so now I can never use it again.

AK-47 overkilled with the R9-0 is my new favorite setup. The R9-0 is pretty rough to start with, but once you get the first extended barrels attachment (level 16 I think?) it becomes amazing.

I wish this game had an “I’m drunk as gently caress, please stop tracking my stats for the night” option. Last night is totally gonna gently caress with my matchmaking. Beer and trying to grind the 680 to unlock the slugs is a bad combo.

You have to unlock the "I'm drunk as gently caress and do not give a poo poo about stats" mode in your brain but then you're golden.

You pick those from your edit loadout screen, not the armory. Took me a bit to figure that out.

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that SMGs are broken in a CoD game, but the M4 and every SMG (especially the MP7) very badly need to get an aggressive damage dropoff nerf.

The Uzi can stay as-is to give the poor thing a competitive advantage. The Bizon too, probably.

I don't know why you think it's good for the MP7 and MP5 to outshoot all non-M4 ARs at all ranges.

Anyway, using the JOKR as a mortar on Killhouse is hilarious.

Edit: I missed that you said damage dropoff and not just damage. I guess that's reasonable. They are probably slighlty too good at range.

Rip the 680, LMGs except the new one, snakeshot (why is this even a thing, anyway? just make the special ammo hollow points or something), M13 I think also got a nerf making it a five hit kill versus the M4, MP5, and MP7 that are all three hits. Reducing the rate of fire on those three would help matters, and the second the devs buffed up other guns their preferred demographic would meltdown about ~*the meta*~ and the change would be redacted.

Yeah, the up-close damage is totally fine, they just shouldn't be winning gunfights at range vs. ARs.

The M4 is the exact same thing - if it had way more aggressive dropoff to offset the ridiculous rate of fire and laser-accuracy, it would make the other ARs much more viable.

PKM still seems pretty solid, way more so than the Holger. The problem with the LMGs is that they're LMGs in a game with 3-4 shot 850-900rpm laser beams that ADS in 0.2 seconds.

I love all the guns in this CoD and it really feels you can be successful with anything... up until you run up someone with a MP5/M4 dropping you immediately across the map.

That’s the only thing that aggravates me about this cod - as good as I might play, if a MP5/M4 connects with me and doesn’t miss a bullet then it doesn’t matter that I shot first.

LMGs suck in death match but I’ve gotten some crazy “killed the entire enemy team without taking my finger off the trigger” stuff in hard point and headquarters. They suck if you have to be mobile but if you’re holding one point they’re bonkers.

Because there are a lot of good guns in the game, but they are all situational except smgs and M4 which can be used for literally anything. Been using the MP7 lately and it is pretty funny that I can counter snipe with it, using a run and gun, no stock, no sight attachment loadout.

The Bizon is extremely good with recoil/ADS attachments. I'd say it is overpowered even.

The PKM got nerfed pretty hard in the first weapon adjustment pass, used to be I could win a fight against an M4 off and on, not all the time but I stood a chance, but now that it does less damage welp guess I'll just put something else in that loadout slot.

So I haven't played in a week. Jump in to shoothouse to warm up, suddenly my M4 isn't killing anyone anymore. Struggle with it for half a dozen lives, think about coming in here and posting the old Godfather "look how they massacred my boy" meme, then finally switch to the MP5 and just shoot to the top of the scoreboard. Whats my go to AR now?

Think I'll pass on the BP for now. Still unlocking poo poo, poo poo I dont care about anyway so we'll see.
