Somebody else would need to do that because I don't care enough about Zombies or the CE to bother watch the video...

I don't care enough about Zombies Man Zombies is where all the good easter eggs and clue hunting is. Where the great in depth stories and conspiracy type stuff is. That's why I love Zombies, all the hidden stuff. And knowing they made the campaign like that, BO3 might be my favorite CoD, regardless of MP.

I on the other hand, is anti-Spades...

I wish they'd just fully transition into the "free maps, paid cosmetic DLC" model. I would love to play some of the old maps, but worsening connections by splitting the player base has always rubbed me the wrong way.

Rumor has it if you combine the entire PC CoD player base into one community you will have almost enough people to fill half of a Team Tactical SnD lobby.

The addition of taunting, is a cool feature..
That being said..
Spending time to implement such a rather useless feature, means the rest of the game is ready to go... right?
Everything is balanced, and there will be no issues upon launch?

Shotty lovers should play Destiny PvP because shotguns are forever stuck in OP-land

Doesn't destiny require a lot of play time or something? I don't got time for all of that, I'd be down if it didn't

On a more serious note: players who are only into PvP don't have to sink a lot time into it. On the flip side though, the PvP experience is not that great if you care a lot about things like 60FPS, dedicated servers, SBMM, ranking sytem, etc. Let's stop the Destiny discussion in this thread right here before it derails the original topic. If you are intrigued by Destiny, come over to the Destiny subforum where PvP lovers and haters can give you a very balanced views of how it is like

I trust Treyarch with everything except shotguns As long as they have something KSG like I'll be fine. If they didn't nerf the pump action I'd be even happy, but they did, so I'm holding out for a KSG.

Last Friday reveal before the official launch (next Friday). Today's focus: NUK3TOWN Lovers and haters, dig in Started: Live updates: 1) The map sure looks pretty; 2) Wall running, thruster jumping, power sliding etc. are incorporated into the map design; 3) Feel of the map = "Controlled Chaos", whatever that means... 4) Map "Metro": symmetric, design for competitive play (kinda looks like Express of BLOPS2 to me); 5) Map "Havoc" 6) Map "Exodus"

It's impossible to tell when this Nuk3town gameplay was actually recorded, but the Haymaker's rate of fire is clearly lower than it was in the beta. If they've dropped the rate of fire and given it OHK potential (or even just a slight lethality buff in general), I'm going to use that thing forever.

It's almost like you've never played a CoD before. It's a gun with all the disadvantages of a shotgun but without any TTK advantage over rifles/smgs at any range. 3arc's crowning achievement in weapon balance innovation.

If they've dropped the rate of fire and given it OHK potential (or even just a slight lethality buff in general), I'm going to use that thing forever. Depends on who decided the weapon rebalance. If it was Foxtrot (who was involved with MW3, but is now working with treyarch) then it is unfortunately not going to get adequate close range damage. If it was Vonderhaar then there is a chance that they make the close range damage adequate. BTW, apparently the fourth shotgun, named Argus, is a pellet based lever action shotgun that has tighter ADS spread, tighter hipfire spread, and better SMG range damage than the KRM, but has more kick and worse close range damage than the KRM.

ATVI's yearly "There is a solider in every couch potato" live action trailer will be shown on TV during NFL games today:
As a gamer, the image of prototypical gamers projected by the Ads feels like an insult. They try to salvage it (spoiler alert) by putting a pretty girl at the end, but let's face it, the percentage of real girls playing this game is infinitesimal, not to mention pretty ones...

At this point does it even matter? Do you think Activision really gives a fuck? It's clear who they're marketing to, as if the Mountain Dew, Doritos and Monster weren't evidence enough.

I'm well aware that shotguns have been bad since MW2. It's never really bothered me all that much, honestly; stomping a lobby with a spitball shooter can be a lot of fun. One of Treyarch's senior MP designers mentioned on Twitter during the beta that they were aiming for BO2 levels of shotgun effectiveness (which I can live with), but wanted them to be more consistent overall (and the Haymaker was obviously nowhere near consistent). Maybe I'm a sucker, but I'm cautiously optimistic that it got a bit of a buff.

With Halo failing me and Destiny being a pain to get endgame content organized, I'm really starting to look forward to Blops Trois. But Xbox One, PS4, or both? Choices, choices.
