You also get counted for a wall bang kill if your bullets go through one enemy and kill another via the FMJ perk, or through one of your own teammates in general in a non HC match (in HC attempting this will just kill you and delete your bullet due to friendly fire)

Did you know that the ax 50 sniper does so much damage on headshots that it makes you eligible for friendly fire damage reflect instantly, even if it's the first occurrence in the match? One time I hit a teammate who walked in front of me as I shot and the bullet killed him, went through and also killed the guy I was actually aiming at, and then also also killed me because it applied the damage reflect. All 3 of us died and I got awarded a collateral wallbang headshot kingslayer buzzkill and a kill feed icon of me shooting myself in the head

I'm confused about this trend of using porn star names. I'm seeing that a lot.

I had this slickster yesterday named Lana Rhodes, is that a porn star? Guy was openly complaining into his mic every 10 seconds until I told him to stop, at which point he began reading from the cod trash talk script. Something something kid. I'm older than you. Oh you're some 40 something in your parents basement and I get more pussy than you. Okay. Eventually made him so mad he tkd me so then i did a big fake exaggerated sob and that put the situation to bed.

Yep, I played split screen with my friends back in the day and it was just like that. There was one level with a silo that people would camp in and snipe from.

camping is a staple of cod, so is running in to kill campers with the multitude of tools they give you to see campers before they see you and either explode or shotgun them

Its literally muscle memory at this point because I do it so often, but every time I'm on shoothouse and I'm on the end of the map with all the cars, the shipping containers, and the little table to stand on for sniping, if I exit on the right side of that, I huck a grenade at the wall of the chokepoint at a 45 degree angle and bounce it back behind the other side of the wall because people love to camp there especially on hardpoint and domination and hit you as you come through the little choke point there.

I'd say a good 70% of the time I kill someone or get hit markers and then turn the corner shooting. Bonus points for blowing up the cars there and taking someone out

First thing I do on every shoothouse is hop on the table first spawn and spray an entire 200 round belt of FMJ ammo downrange. It's pretty effective.

Macaluso posted:

Also unrelated, I don't know or understand what wall banging is. The way my friend described it, it's like shooting THROUGH a wall? Do bullets go through walls? Am I supposed to be shooting at walls that I think a player might be behind?

Bullets go through walls. Surfaces reduce damage (e.g. shooting through a wall will reduce damage of the bullet), and some surfaces are thick enough that you can't shoot through them (e.g. concrete, thick trees.) The ideal situation for wallbangs are in the houses in warzone - the walls are very thin and if people try to use them for cover, you can just trace where they're going and get the kill through the stairs etc even if you don't have line-of-site. You can also shoot through ceilings and floors in some situations (e.g. if you see a beep on your heartbeat sensor right on your location in house, try shooting up through the ceiling.) Generally you should only do this if you absolutely KNOW where people are - otherwise you're giving away your position.

Just started playing Warzone on PC. What the hell is the setting that's making everything look so blurry outside of 5 feet? I've got a pretty solid gaming rig and I've got most settings on real high. I've turned of film grain so I know it's not that.

It's a combination of AA (you want either SMAA 2x or Filmic SMAA 2X) and filmic strength set to 100.

Make sure Depth of Field is disabled.

You can keep motion blur on as far as I can tell. I have it on for the weapon model.

Check the sound settings. You may have it set on party/friend chat only, meaning you won't hear the players you kill

Death mics rule. I wish you could just have death mics while not having other voice chat enabled in multiplayer.

Are S3 blueprints usable in S4? I would assume yes, but my Armory currently contains a handful of S1/S2 blueprints which don't actually show up when building loadouts.

Things are looking up...

Re Wallbang Chat:

It is super inconsistent.
It does not adhere to logic.

99% certain it's based on the pretty standard material/thickness formula: game will try to trace a path through surfaces and calculate falloff based on the 'material' and distance through. Issue is where an object has multiple materials -visually- but not necessarily in the physics modeling. Often times this system is automatically tied to the texture materials for ease of implementation but again I'm guessing at how CoD does it. You can see this for yourself by shooting surfaces and noting the different impact scars and particles: there's a good variety like wood, dirt, concrete, metal etc.

Some surfaces that seem bangable are not. Some that shouldn't be like Hesco barriers (these things https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hesco_bastion ) are.

Worst case you can try it for yourself in a custom game. Especially handy to know which corners and popular hiding spots are vulnerable.

Either a map change or new map would be good for WZ though aside from the few Easter eggs in their communication they’ve been pretty quiet about it and the proper S4 trailer was more of a recap.
