Is the alpha over? I can open it but it just sits at “searching for a match” forever.

Sure am glad I blew $10 on a month of PS+ only for Amazon to not send me my beta code!

Amazon sent me one and it had already been redeemed :banjo:

This game is awesome. CoD went back to its roots and I love it.

Do other killstreaks unlock in the beta?

Yea I’d definitely rather have the mini map. But if it doesn’t come back it’s not the end of the world.

Yea my main gripe with the game right now is it’s very difficult to see enemies at a distance. I don’t have a PS4pro or a 4K tv though so that would probably help.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m still having a blast. Just annoying to see a kill cam and I can barely even make myself out before I get plinked.

I love that old school CoD moment where you get a chopper gunner and just immediately rack up 10+ kills seeing little red boxes spawn bunched up in a corner and utterly annihilating them.

Reminds me of dropping nukes in MW2.

Yea if you liked CoD Modern Warfare, World at War, Black Ops 1, or MW2, you owe it to yourself to hop back in.

Its funny how something simple like interacting with doors and mounting really changes things.

How do you interact with doors besides just opening them normally or running through them? I haven’t been able to open on slowly or partially.

I literally can’t even see half the guys you are killing in this video. I don’t know why they went with this weird muddy brown/grey color scheme for everything.

So PlayStation + wasn’t needed for the beta this week. Does anyone know if you need an Xbox live subscription to play the beta this weekend?

Is it possible to have voice chat between PS4 and Xbox?

Yup. I played on PS4 last weekend. Just logged onto my Xbox and everything carried over. Pretty sweet.

Yea this game doesn’t let you run and gun like the old call of duty games did (MW, WaW, Blops, MW2), which I’m bummed out about, but it’s still a lot of fun. You just have to be more cautious.

I’m on a launch Xbox one and there’s no lag or anything weird going on in ground war. It’s not partially fun though.

To be clear. I want it to stay in and it’s a fun diversion.

Also on PS4 last night I was partied with 2 other friends. After every game we’d have to exit party then regroup to find a game. Otherwise it would just sit on searching for game or whatever it is on a loop. Anyone else having this issue?

Yep, same issue on Xbox.

Did they raise the level cap? I thought 20 was the max.

I saw some guy in Twitch playing that had the killstreak perk and it's insane how many things you can do once you get enough kills for a missile. He killed three people with a missile, sent out a VTOL which killed five really fast, which got him the chopper gunner, which quickly turned in to a gun ship when he was done.

Pretty impressive considering you can only have 3 killstreaks selected at once.

Can you purchase the game today from a store? Or is it only playable today if you bought it digitally?

Again, I play COD for the fun of running around and mindlessly killing, not for setting claymores and hiding in a window for 3-4 minutes to pick someone off going for a flank. That shits for Battlefield

Battlefield is nothing like this. You’re encouraged to move as much as possible, and there’s a million flanking routes to punish campers. Call of Duty has always been the campers haven, specifically due to killstreaks.

People saying Battlefield is slow and tactical have never played Battlefield apparently. Battlefield is over the top madness (or in BFV's case badness) not plodding and slow.

Yea I run and gun like a madman in every battlefield. It’s nothing like people are describing it as ITT.

Just got a chopper gunner in ground war! The game ended as soon as I called it in...

Game is a lot of fun, my main complaint is how much camping is incentivized. It’s just exponentially easier to do well if you don’t move around much.

RCarr

I was looking forward to using the thermal scope and smoke grenades. Finally unlocked the scope and... it’s complete trash. Just useless. 😞

The riot shield and claymores is loving awesome. Too bad dead silence is so lovely

MW2 was fun because you could run and gun and still dominate. Dual 1887’s, dual raffika’s, care package grenade running, etc was so much fun. Just wildly sprinting around the map destroying everyone.

Doubling the TTK would make this game so much better

Throwing knives are so fun. Nothing like someone seeing you with a riot shield from 30 feet away and thinking, haha this guy can’t do poo poo against me, and then getting hit in the forehead with a knife.

Didn’t they say they were going to put in parkour style hiding spots that were hard to get to? Are there actually any?

Is anyone enjoying the game or mostly just hate playing it until IW unfucks it?

I mostly hate it, with brief periods of enjoying it peppered in. The only way I can have fun is using the riot shield. Then I can actually move around the map without leaning around every wall and checking the dozens of sight lines and camping spots I’m vulnerable to. Still can’t sprint ever though, anytime I sprint I’m instantly killed from some far off corner of the map.
