After a few more games of the new warzone I'm sort of disliking it more and more by each additional game. Feels like you descend to slow and opening/cutting the parachute is to slow as well especially when you see enemies around. They kill you before you even can react.

Now when you can get a good streak going with a few kills it does feel awesome.

Trying to get that 3 point blank shotgun double kills mission but how close is point blank? I can get the double kills but never close enough.

Point blank pretty much requires you to have your barrel touching their body to count.

No, I mean like, a web interface or a program I can use to read the game stats. I usually go in and do it that way but trying to keep track of what I already golded and what I am working on (and what part) is a chore sometimes. I'm probably in the minority but painfully grinding out skin camos is the name of the game for me :saddowns:

I made my own sweatsheet to track camo completions since I didn't see anything else out there that does it.. tempted to go change the numbers to regular numbers to more easily incorporate a percentage to gold but :effort:

One thing I do wish is allowing me to track stuff like operator challenges in game

Like, lemme get a box that lets me track whatever the gently caress i wanna track in game

Also it sucks checking gun challenges by flipping through five menus in my loadout to see that it's still not counting kills for whatever The New Gun is

It’s its own mode. Plunder rules. You have to kill 5 people for Intel then it sends you around the map to find a key then a map code. The map code gives you a coordinate (like B5) and you have to go there and look for a weapon which you’ll find is being held by Woods himself. You get it, unlock a blueprint, and that’s it. Looks like there’s nothing else to do after that but to wait out the match to end (it’s timed based, not on anyone’s score) at which point we get a trailer?

My game ended after I got the SKS skin and then Everyone respawned with no weapons and had 1 minute to run to the stadium "for cover" while dozens of planes flew over and nuclear sirens went off. Then the new trailer played with CGI Reagan

Taking the Halloween approach and leaving the first one untouched and building from it is a pretty cool move.

The event was cool. I wish the nuke warning at the end actually led to a part of the map being blown up. That was kind of disappointing. But the run during that part was cool. Also it was funny killing people trying to find the blueprint.

I would've liked the blueprint to be like, on a table or in a box or something instead of it being just like... some guy. Who is apparently someone important but I've never played COD before so this was just some doofus standing alone in a building

It's not up for my friends who weren't on either. SURELY that just has to be a mistake and they didn't actually only have the evemt available for like 30 minutes right?? That would be absolutely insane and stupid so SURELY that's not intentional??

Yeah but to be fair it was a fun & enjoyable event. We did the mission and then flew around shooting players with strela-p s until the timer ran out.

Got the Finn to level 30 and my biggest takeaway is avoid the +fire rate barrels like the plague. Although that might be a very different story with the chainsaw stock which I haven't unlocked yet. I feel like its even more effective at short range/hipfire with a long barrel than it is with fire rate mods. With the fire rate mods it legit feels like just about the worst gun in the game.

Overall in multiplayer it feels like an extremely middle of the road gun imo, but the mobility is nice. I'm more interested in it in Warzone though. I haven't used it yet but the low recoil+large magazine+high mobility will probably make it a beast, but I haven't tested it out.

Immediately going back to the Amax for multi after i unlock everything on it though.

As far as I can tell, the only downside to the high rate of fire barrels seems to be recoil, which isn't very bad. The chainsaw stock still needs to "ads" to hit anything medium range, but I don't think tac laser helps. I would use the Long high rate of fire barrel, merc or commando, sleight of hand, tac laser, no stock or compensator in multiplayer, and skip it entirely for the m4 or mp5 in warzone
