If you pre-order elsewhere (aka got a code) I believe you have to enter that on the COD site beta signup page. Once you do that they’ll send (later today) a token so you can redeem it on the PS Store. It’s all a needlessly complicated bullshit to not have this be an open beta but that’s Activision for you. Yeah, the Call of Duty website says I redeemed a code for Playstation, but I haven't received any token yet. It's 12pm my time, so I don't know what the deal is.

The tokens should be going out tonight. Technically their site says the tokens will go out closer to the beta start so it could be as late as tomorrow morning or even better right at the start of the beta so they crash PSN.

Throughout the history of the Call of Duty franchise, they have had the courage to let the developers try new systems, mechanics, game modes, and techniques, while holding true to the basic fundamentals underlying the gameplay!

I will play this game. I'm glad there's a beta because I'm really not sure if non-hitscan will be good for the CoD "feel" (hah)

So I logged into the Call of Duty site, and went to Private Beta Redemption page (via the link on this page), and the code was posted there. I didn't get any email about, so if you haven't gotten any notification about it yet, try checking there.

First night of beta night thoughts in no particular order: + Weapons I’ve used feel solid and varied. Nothing really stands out for me yet. Iron sights are on point but sights are still good for longer engagements. + Maps are kinda safe and boring. Didn’t really hate any of them. We didn’t play that one map because apparently it crashes the game. + This surprised the hell out of me but: they really did a FANTASTIC job with Specialists. Not one of them feels bad or underpowered (maybe Ruin outside of objective games) and they’re all mostly fun. + Control is a really fun game mode. I can see us sticking with it for a good while. - Body armor is bullshit - This is still definitely a beta that needs tons of optimization. Frame rate was nowhere near what it should be. I’m letting it slide for now. - UI is loving terrible. - Beta lobbies have way too long waiting in between matches while simultaneously having barely any time to vote. - Loading is back and it’s real bad. Pre-load in lobby, you fuckers. ++ Acoustic Sensor is the most ridiculously broken poo poo that no one is talking about. +++ Played with goons and Macys was bitching about good guns. A good COD night. The BOP is still 100% bullshit and I’m firmly in the skip it for now camp but at a first glance the game is actually really, really, really loving good.

Played a few matches of the beta. Thoughts: +Control is real fun and I'd be up for that being the goon mode of choice. +Pump action shotgun is ridiculous with the amount of range it has. I love it and am glad Treyarc keep up their tradition of amazing shotguns. +Maps seem alright. I keep accidentally drowning because I forget to breath. +Game flows pretty alright. +MP5K IS BACK BABY! -I miss boost jumps and wall running. -I don't like being locked out of a specialist because someone else picked them. -Old rule of "never play solo" holds strong.

Can you play Chaos TDM solo? I can’t imagine it being as sweaty as objective game modes.

Bumper Stickup posted:Played a few matches of the beta. Thoughts: I agree! Control is an excellent addition to the Call of Duty match type roster, and I hope it receives mass appeal! We were alternating between that and Hardpoint for the last matches of the night! Manual healing on cooldown is the best evolution to happen since auto-recovery on a timer! No more waiting behind cover to heal or die! Pop the juice, and you're right back in the fight! The iron sights on the standard weapons are very good! Historically I've strictly been a sight/scope kind of player, but I can totally see using irons if I need that extra point somewhere else in the Pick 10 System! In addition, recoil control on the guns was very reasonable! I would recommend a quickdraw attachment for anyone looking to engage in aggressive run and gun play! The maps have a nice blend between cover and open areas, CQC, verticality, shortcuts, and flanking routes! In fact on some maps even the flanking routes have flanking routes! Combat flow from spawn to combat seems to be almost as fast as that of IW, despite the lack of advanced movement options such as wall running or double jumping! Sound effects from the various weapons and streaks were significant and impactful! When all Hell is breaking loose, you know it! Finally, the transition to a ballistics model involving travel time calculations has not significantly impacted gameplay in the generally small arena match environs preferred by fans of the series!

Happy Noodle Boy posted:- UI is loving terrible. By UI do you mean the in-game HUD or the menus? Infinite Warfare did those well and the preloading and it was great. I've been playing WW2 recently and the UI layout is shite. In IW I could just mash X to get into a TDM as soon as the menu loaded. In WW2 you have to navigate a few times to get to the most popular game mode. No.

He's referring to the in-game menus, in that they share similarities with Destiny (and one of the more recent Warframe UI patches in June) in using a stick to control a cursor, rather than using the directional pad to quickly scroll up and down a list!

Ok so map talk. I thought about it this morning and I’m really unsold on them based on what we’ve seen. The good: Contraband: Probably the “best” map. Good open sight lines, broad lanes 1-2 connecting paths / shortcuts, some using water. The lane themselves aren’t too busy and have good defensive features so you’re not simply running in an open lane. The feature aren’t too obnoxious making either defense of offense impossible. Feels like they’re a bit loaded at the ends which means you’d rarely see those sections if playing TDM but they work really well in Control and if someone if using the Tac Beacons. Seaside: Also a good map, imo. Well defined lanes that you can cut in between through buildings. Really fun control map with some neat features like the church overlook and the keg room. Again, the lane themselves aren’t too busy and poo poo plays well enough. Frequency: Treyarch this is just a non advanced movement Mayday. This is beginning to show what I’m dreading. The lanes are starting to get tighter and busier. Sight lines outside of the outer lanes become way shorter. In an already small map, the fights feel even closer. Pointless remnants of the AM with pits and falls and spots where yeah you totally could wall run through here. They what the gently caress are they thinking trying to sell this: Payload: This is a 100% advanced movement map and it plays like loving poo poo without it. The lanes are too narrow, the sight lines within a lane are all obstructed with huge boxes and crates. The corridors between lanes are needlessly tight. The lanes are fragmented within themselves with upper and lower areas. It wasn’t until the 2nd or match here that it hit me how loving good it would be if I could wall run on the outside and engage that big inside room from above. Gridlock: We didn’t play it since it’s apparently bugged. There’s one last map (the Japan one) that we never saw. So yeah if we get more maps like Contraband we’ll be good. The remake maps should all flow well enough as they were BOTG maps so I’m not worried there. If the rest of the new maps are more like Payload then oh boy I’m going to be hating a lot of new maps.

Not a fan of the melee system as it leads to the old gears 2 "2 piece" system where you melee and kill em before they have time to recover.
