One Day I Will Return To Your Side.
it's still really jarring because all of my instincts tell me that Double Pistols in Counterstrike are terrible but in COD they're godlike killing machines. I still fly into a rage when I see someone rock me with the double renettis or revolvers It's such horseshit loool.

And what should one do to be remembered?
I know this is the dumbest poo poo but I wish the way the guns are held in this game was a bit more conventional. Pistols are not so bad, but things like the clamp grip on the Kilo 141 drive me insane. Let me see the pretty gun model, game!

I wonder why they havent tapped into that as a "flair" cosmetic DLC. Let people hold the guns upside down or whatever, I bet good money people would buy that.

Animations are significantly more time consuming to make than textures.

In WZ you can if you get two loadouts and just keep your secondaries. Regular MP you're SOL

I think it's almost certain Warzone will continue on as its own branch and will draw seasonal content and maps based on whatever the current IW title is. They've clearly laid the groundwork for that being the case with this title. The campaign, co-op, multiplayer & warzone elements of "Modern Warfare" are already by and large compartmentalized. Fortnite has proven you can just re-vamp the ingame content and call it "Chapter 2" so they don't even need to make the case for it being a new business model. The real question is whether or not Blackout will continue as a pseudo-cod or if they'll just really lean into the high-action wacky BR style and let Modern Warfare be the more tacticool BR.

I wish the regular multiplayer would go this route as well and just keep adding new stuff to the existing engine with each entru. It sucks that unlocks are basically pointless after a year when the playerbase migrates to the new shiny thing. Also please keep gunsmith and don't reinvent the wheel only to end up with something worse.

I'm really digging the Bruen. Unlock the mag-fed version and it's a SAW that handles like an assault rifle. Right now my go-to loadout is Bruen/HDR.

Anyone have any good WZ solos tips? Seems like most folks hunker down in buildings until forced to move. HB sensor/C4/RPG probably fairly handy in those situations.

Sorry to be a pain, but can someone re-link or quote this hipfire setup? I'm trying to train myself to hipfire when appropriate. I have a really bad habit of always ADSing and it gets me into trouble in close quarters in WZ.

Sadly the last great battlefield game was 4, or possibly 1 if you want that old timey feel.

BFV sucks so bad I hate it

At least 4 will be cheap though

Yeah I played a ton of BF1, then BF5 was like...i dunno a million dumb unlocks and didn't really feel like ww2 at all so i dropped it.

Liking Domination the best so far...i like having a bit of structure.

It really not. It's a great way to get into the top 10 or 5, where you will get stomped by people who regularly find & take fights instead of turtling and hoping for ring position.

This same argument happens in every BR thread, but I guarantee you the people who don't spend the whole game hiding have better winrates than people who do.

I'm not good at BRs but my strategy has evolved into skirting around just outside the safe zone and coming in and I usually make it into the top quarter or so with a few decent clean up kills getting people running across open terrain etc.

Turtling may be effective in scoring some cheap kills but I just get too bored so don't do that.

When my team wins we tend to find somewhere to drop that is just outside the circle but also maybe isolated or cut off from the rest of the map by the circle. Then we stay on the outside pushing towards wherever probably has less teams staying with the ring at our back. Then when it’s down to a few teams we find somewhere to hide and stock up, wait for the big fight to start and try to get good position. Camping will cost you the W almost every time.

If you're skilled enough at shooting and positioning then you are absolutely correct. If you're a garbage player then you're better off hiding, but the obvious solution to a garbage player like me is to get better at approaching fights and to try to not be the garbage player that I am at heart.

I rarely play solo, but when I do I've generally done pretty well by always landing downtown and going for objectives constantly. Most of the biggest campers seem to go for those little 2 story buildings at places like the farm, and downtown is so big you'll get a ton of money and run into fights on the street which keeps it interesting. By the time you have to leave you should be loaded up with a loadout and revive etc. Def use a HB sensor. You can avoid the high roof campers pretty easily by just sticking near walls and indoors and only going into the street to cross.

E: Full disclosure I'm not looking to win solos at all though. I just play to try and find firefights to get into.

That's a great idea, usually I avoid downtown in squad games but I can see how solos would make it a lot more doable. The 2 storeys do seem to be the favourite camp spots for most. I will try that for my battlepass grindin'! :haw:

Also same about winning, I haven't won a warzone match yet and it's not really my goal, I'd rather do what is fun. (for me, winning the match is fun for lots of folks)

Yes maybe if there was a benefit to killing others like other games. You don’t gain anything by fighting in WZ because there’s no such thing as loot.
