They should make it so the matchmaker matches quitters with each other. I wonder if it would get to a point where both teams just immediately quit after load.

You can use marksman rifles for those sniper challenges, which, depending on your playstyle is way easier.

Also: gently caress I am one quad feed away from getting that challenge and I keep getting to 3 then someone will stand on a claymore or something.

I absolutely hate that you can't get Quad Feeds in Hardcore so you have to do it in regular Core. It's so incredibly frustrating.

Right, if it was on hardcore, it'd be a complete breeze. Drop a cruise missile loving anywhere on shipment, done.

I got the quad feed officer challenge for this season done in hardcore headquarters, so you may be experiencing a tracking issue?

Quad feeds, the four uninterrupted kills in the kill feed, right? I only play hardcore and I got it done using a wheelson/chopper gunner.

That’s right, yeah, but a quad feed is four kills by you in the lower left list of who killed who.

Whats pros and cons of choosing a markmen rifle with a larger zoom scope versus a sniper rifle with a smaller zoom scope? Like if you have each of them with the same scope on, so the zoom is the same, which one would I choose for which situation/playstyle?

It's kind of funny that they clearly settled on 150 both because that's a good number for the map and apparently what the game/servers can handle and then just went "Ahhh gently caress it" anyway.

The major pro of going long-range DMR instead of sniper rifle imo is that DMRs have a much shorter reset to neutral after firing. Most of the snipers have to operate the bolt after every shot and the one(s?) that doesn't still kicks pretty high when you shoot it. While prone, DMRs with a bipod basically have no recoil so you can just click and let the game reset your aim for followup shots.

edit: Meanwhile the pro of sniper rifles is that most of em are OHKO anywhere on the body so you don't have to go for headshots or really aim anywhere but center mass unless they're REALLY far away.

they should add a perk that reduces your HP to 1 but gives you quad xp tbh

I've had very little technical problems with the 200 quads so I frankly love the mode. It's so hectic and silly, i like it more than the normal version. I hated the realism one to the point that it felt unplayable to me.

So of course all my friends loved the realism poo poo (they put thousands of hours into Bad Game PUBG and realism was close to that trash I guess) and hate this mode

loving unbelievable. Got lucky with my 3rd chopper gunner from a care package in shipment. I try to set it off for like 2 min while I get a “airspace is too crowded “ message. I set it off finally, and game is over. Still at 10/20. I am never finishing this loving challenge. I think it has been a month.

Have you tried co-op?

Not every challenge does, but I've noticed some, usually killstreak related, track across modes (Pretty sure I did ones for UAV, cluster and airstrike kills in co-op).

Worth a punt for the sake of 5 mins.

We are all on PS4 pros and I'm not sure how entire crossplay servers crashing would be relevant to that. But we had 2 rounds where the entire server just pooped out in the middle of a good round, multiple rounds where someone randomly got dropped, a round where over a hundred people were dropped from the game at once, and frequent bug that everyone in my group has experienced where the game just freezes for over ten seconds and you think you are gonna get dropped but then you don't...

I have no opinion on the mode. It feels just like regular quads to me but it does not feel stable.

I was using anecdotes from the hardware in my own crew, which I had the only advanced console

They're xb1s

The mode itself performs real bad, network issues excluded

Seemed like memory issues if I had to guess, it was weird
