Wow this is almost exactly what I am talking about. I wonder why they didn't just bring this into Modern Warfare.

WW2 was made by a different company, and unless Activision says otherwise, Infinity Ward generally treats game innovations from the other devs as a bad thing.

how are the remasters by the way? it's been a while and I sort of want to experience the spectacle again, but I own every cod since mw1 already.

The MW remaster was a shitshow of crashes and didn't look tremendously better imo. MW2 remaster was good and wasn't a flaming trash fire either, but it's not like the original MW2 has major compatibility problems and still looks just fine to me, so I wouldn't really recommend it as a buy.

I am still excessively bitter that Soap hasn't featured in this reboot though.

Smaller maps are more hectic and have more issues with spawns. In a larger map a good player can be more dominant but small maps like shipment are just clusterfucks and skill matters less.

I fell into a fugue state or something while playing TDM on hardhat and reeled off a killstreak of I don’t know how many but was at least 15 and it was the wildest combination of luck and timing and god drat it I will be chasing the dragon trying to replicate that forever :sigh:

It got to the point where I was like “oh well it was a good run but this is probably where I die” then I shoot another guy in the face and his buddy who was running away. I actually ran out of ammo for my an-94 then got 3 more pistol kills and picked up a random aug then died after a couple more kills.

The play of the game vid only showed 2 of my kills so I was very disappointed :sigh:

Why the gently caress do people poo poo on the fast, small, action packed maps like livestock, shipment, rust, shoothouse etc when it's a loving fact that every single "slightly larger than small" or bigger map is loving actual dogshit trash in this game?

This MW would be the best one since the original almighty CoD4 if every map was as fun as crash is on 12 v 12, or shipment 6 v 6.... basically lobby size correlating with map size. For the life of me I can't figure out why they didn't make all the other maps like, a fraction of their sizes.

Give me Pipeline from the original COD4 and let me live in the underground tunnels with a shotgun like the sewer rat I am.

I wish they'd actually list a % range reduction instead of making youtubers figure it out. Either way, unless they reduced it's range by like 50% it'll still be one of the best guns in WZ.

Yeah IW saw that people were actually using more than one gun and had to do something about it.

Not that I didn't think both of those nerfs were inevitable but -36% max damage range, seriously? And a 3 body shot kill with the FAL equals what, 7 shots to the chest in WZ?

:lol: they nerf the Grau once and it's like -1% range and an indecipherable amount of added recoil.

I jumped into WZ for the first time in a while and I find the RAM to be a great mid/short ranger and was even breaking armor on guys pretty far (but they ducked out of sight before I could get the down). So if the Bruen sucks now that’ll be my main loadout. That and the Bruen are my only 2 gold guns.

Also if the Bruen is damage nerfed now at range the PKM will be the undisputed champ.

True. The PKM actually requires some degree of recoil management though. It's not just a spray and pray gun like the Grau and Bruen. You cant just point in the general direction that you saw some movement and watch the kills rack up.

Also the Grau will remain undisputed champ, but that is just a given.

"FAL

Maximum damage (to 20m) has been nerfed, however, this does not account for changes to body multipliers.

Maximum Damage: 65 to 49 (-25%)"

What are the changes to body multipliers, what does that mean? Sounds like the FAL is back to being useless.

The tracker.gg patch notes say this:

quote:

FAL
Increased headshot damage (2 hit at range with 1 headshot)
Reduced near damage (limbs and lower torso always 3 shot)

So it sounds like they nerfed the base damage but increased the upper torso multiplier to make it two-shot only in the upper torso.

That M91 buff is a real joke, though.

e; so how fast does the G36C ADS now that it's gotten another buff to the baseline ADS speed?

They didn't change any of the multipliers, it's always had a higher damage to the upper torso to make it two-shot so it's basically back to how it was pre-patch (before they added that 20m damage range) where it was two-shot to the upper chest but three-shot if you hit elsewhere in the non-head.

Here's a brief comparison I made of pre & post nerf bruen (old bruen up top, new underneath)

Stock, Horizon, & Summit barrels only.

It's a huge nerf, but it brings it to a good place and it's still the dominant 'ranged' full auto, imo.

New bruen with 3 barrels vs Grau & Kilo with longest barrels:

I remember it being somewhat inconsistent about getting two-shot upper torso kills at longer ranges, but I guess they didn't improve that.

Honestly though, that sounds kind of okay? It still has the one-shot headshot up close and it's still a good, accurate gun at longer ranges (especially if they actually buffed the headshot damage to make it always 2-shot as long as you get a headshot, but who knows since the datamined stats don't list anything). These changes should make it a bit less stupid in CQB without making it completely useless.

Crustashio posted:

The question was about the G36C (i.e. the MG36 with all the ADS-improving attachments) rather than the MG36 itself. The patch notes don't say anything about changing the attachments so I guess it's just a flat buff to that as well, which might actually make it worth using?

e; codgundata has updated stats and apparently you can make this happen:



I have no idea if that thing is actually usable while aiming, though.

Can't touch this.
So I made the mistake of learning that camo unlocks are challenges, and my broken brain is addicted to filling bars. Quickly gold'ed a couple of the guns I had been using in different classes and then decided to look down the road a little bit. While it is taking me absolutely forever to find enough ground kill streaks to even gold my first launcher, using a launcher secondary is actually getting me to play in a new style that I kind of like.

But the melee weapons. Specifically the Riot Shield, is crushing my will to keep playing. I have to somehow get 3x kills in a life 25 times with this thing, and it is miserable. Google is not being very helpful, but does anyone know if kills with lethals while you have the riot shield out count? I can pretty reliably boop two people in the face without dying, but then someone will come along with a thermite.

Also while on the subject, I wish I would get credit for people suicideing with C4 and thermite, its a hilariously high number of my deaths while riot shielding that the guy who threw something at me kills himself and or a teammate.
