I was late to the party with this and hope the Mara operator will be available in a forthcoming pack.

The campaign was really well produced with great setpieces, but absolute political and narrative nonsense, so a Modern Warfare campaign.

In multiplayer, my old man reflexes were eating poo poo for a while while I tried to find a loadout that worked for me, then I pre-ordered the MW2 remaster and found with a few changes (added the whatever they call the Eotech with the 3x flip up magnifier, just like my IRL rifle) the M4 bonus rifle from the preorder pack is working for me. Just an all-ranges laser, only real downside is on full dakka it burns through the 30 round mag quick so I might have to compromise something like the muzzle break to add a 50 round mag.

I actually prefer the smaller modes to the battle royale. :shrug:

I should look at the OP closer to see how to play with goons, provided ya'll don't mind an old man who's a little slow on the LMB. Then again we all gotta be at least pushing fuckin' 40 on this dying forum.

lol Rolling into the mosh pit mode with an rpg7 and pkm just unloading indiscriminately is probably how I'm going to spend my weekend getting my pass levels up. What a dumb mode but weirdly satisfying for just nonstop mayhem.

Spend your weekend on moshpit modes like container with an LMG and a launcher. Unironically just equip the highest capacity box you have and walk around spraying and ADS advancing firing constantly at head level and tracking anyone who walks around a corner into your sights.

It's stupid and you'll experience ups and downs whether a guy spawns behind you or you happen to start out flanking three guys you can shoot through, but it's your best bet to grind your battlepass as hard as possible before the season ends. Use your tokens, IINM they will stack with the double XP.

What do you get from the battlepass that makes it worth doing this instead of playing for fun?

This was in response to someone who made the arguable mistake of buying the battlepass with a week left in the season, if they wanted to max out unlocks.

I assume that you can get plenty of value out of it just playing normally if you get it at the start.

I just want to live long enough to some day figure out why someone would want, in a loving video game, to declare to all other players "look at me. I am garbage! I'm aware of this, so I will cheat to frustrate you out of your casual pastime"

Not condoning it, but I wouldn't be surprised if part of the prevalence of cheater mentality is fueled by the increasing Skinner Boxification of gaming making some aspects a chore or an obligatory grind to get your "daily quests" or whatever done. I need to grind XP to level my guy, and my gun, so I can unlock all the perks and attachments. Maybe this cheat will let me do that quicker and easier, and then I "promise" once I'm max level with everything unlocked I'll play fair again.

Then again people were rampantly cheating back in the days of Counterstrike 1.6, so there's always been a healthy dose of just being an rear end in a top hat for its own sake, too.

I've been leveling up the PKM and I've come to the conclusion that I just don't really like it. What's the best AR?

In spite of being something of a SCAR fetishist where a SCAR-H is my IRL "if I had a million bucks" dream gun, I'm really digging the basic-rear end M4 with the eotech holosite and flip up magnifier.

I don't know, the whole thing is hosed politically from attributing the famous Highway of Death to Evil Russians to the general glorification of OPERATORS.

But it's well executed and I consume it.

Do tokens stack with the double XP? I'm leery of spending them since the UI is showing the same icons to represent the weekend...

I picked up a couple packs since I am a nerve stapled consumer who can't buy physical things and liked some of the cosmetics like a little shark tschochki for my gun and I figured a few epic guns with all the fixing would make it less of a slog to level up said guns. Ah well.

Those are solid but I just like the "eh you're not worth the effort" energy of Golem's. If I could equip it to other guys I would.

Is there some trick to the Operation Paladin Spec Ops mission? If I've tried it once I've tried it 30 times, and everything falls apart once you get to the weapons crate in the store. The game just spams heavy soldiers, suicide bombers, and a freaking Juggernaut at you until you're all wasted. I assume since it's indoors air support call ins won't help you. I guess maybe I just need to coordinate a group instead of randos and IDK all pop juggernaut as soon as that phase begins? It's loving nuts.

I was super burned on the S2 Battlepass and then S3 has a kickass skin for Mara at Level 90, so they fuckin' hooked me again.

Also the best Warzone strat is to play solos and get your hands on a chopper as soon as possible, those blades are incredible.

Oh good, I was hoping there'd be another shot at Mara.

E: lol they just made the tomagachi a different color and called it a different unlock.

really makes one leery of bothering with any of the other cosmetics in the store vs. just sticking to battlepass

The package bundle for Talon also has a doggo execution (it's a big black boofer, not a Gshep) if you would rather just throw money at the pack, instead of the battlepass.

So far as in-game, though, prepare to die a lot while waiting for your doggo to do his thing. One of the slowest 'kill' times of any execution.

Is that so? They all seem to take the same about 3 seconds and change, I assume by design.

I always play as the lady that just sticks an axe in someone then makes fun of their corpse.

I'm still repping Golem because I love just shiving the neck and not even breaking stride to shove the guy away.

I unlocked his one liner to go with it by doing missions, but it is sadly weak next to the rest of them.

then again I guess with the disdainful animation just saying "goodbye" and moving on is probably a better match than something that sounds clever and workshopped.

I haven't really played a COD online before since the WW2 ones, is there some secret to spawning somewhere I won't instantly get shot either by a guy in the corner with a shotgun up my rear end, three guys aiming at me already firing, or in front of a sniper rifle? Half of my lives are five seconds or less and I'm usually dead before I can even pull the scope up or the gun can put out a bullet. The other half I can actually do something.

Depends on the map and the mode. Mosh pit map deathmatch that's just part of the dice roll, like getting telefragged back in the old days of Quake.

If you want something a little more wide open I recommend the bigger modes. Ground War is basically Call of Battlefield, and the battle royale modes give you some control over just how much of a furball you want to drop into.
