9. The Smart Pistol takes 0.37 to 0.65 seconds per lock-on to lock on to an enemy player based on distance and distance from center of crosshair. Well crap, how did I not know that, about the crosshair modifier! Don't forget making people rage. It's definitely the best at that.

.... and then went back to titanfall and it is just so good everything is right. TF is designed for different players than COD:MP fans. Not really. Hey, everyone's entitled to their own opinion. But, your opinion sucks. Wait what? The only reason TTK is any higher than COD is because you're missing. Edit: Didn't see that you play HC... but most COD players don't bother with that shit anyway, Titanfall is definitely closer to COD Core TTK than COD HC is. They're not really bots, they're minions. It's a pretty big difference.Uhh, there aren't many weapons, it's true. But the ones that are there are pretty useful. Smart Pistol, Carbine, G2, Shotgun, and CAR are all fantastic.That might be a...slight... exaggeration.

So, they added Marked For Death Pro, which is a round based version of Marked for Death. 90 second titan build time, the mark indicator pulses instead of being up full time. Nobody was playing at this odd hour when I tried it out, it started at 3v3 and quickly became a 1v1 affair: ClipAlso, two previous featured game modes are back: Wingman LTS Pilot Skirmish

But I already sold all my nigerian gloves for pitiful amounts of experience that probably wasn't worth struggling through the laggy menus to acquire.

Sweet FFA Spawn:
Guy 1 picks his class before the game starts, and spawns in at 10:00 like a sucker and cloaks. Guy 2 spawn in 1-2 seconds into the game and takes aim at him, but he too is a sucker, because the winner and champion, Pegasus Actual, spawns in 2 seconds late behind both these fools and shoots them. Notice that I have the good sense to look back at where I spawned to prevent the revenge spawn that totally would have put one or both of those players back in that spawn again.
And hey, who doesn't like the occasional lagknife:

I'm pretty sure it's a level requirement. As in, at certain levels you will unlock one more module slot for all the streaks. If I could pick that as my prestige reward I would.

RNG drops are garbage. I was a lot happier when I mistakenly thought there was just one elite variant for the various weapons and that you won't get the same weapon twice. And the whole thing is mostly pointless anyway since chances are vanilla Bal is going to be way better than anything you unlock, unless it's a better Bal.
I think it's gotten to the point where I'm pinning my hopes on Treyarch to come up with something decent. And generally I'm "fuck Treyarch" guy. But clearly Black Ops 3 is gonna be the last hope for this franchise.

yep. FFA is fun in AW. I suppose that because of speed only, nth much needed. players can MOVE away from spawn very fast so spawnkilling is not dat prevailing ... I don't know, the spawns are batshit insane. It gets especially screwed up if someone picks their loadout just after the game starts, a lot of times they'll spawn right behind someone, kill them, and then that person spawns back right behind them. I think I've had 4 encounters with the same player within 2 seconds of a game starting before. I'll have to remember to record it next time I see it. PS4 recording is a little more annoying because you have to commit a solid 5 seconds out of the game to make it happen.

Haters gonna hate, but I liked MW3's weapons, at the very least, each class had fun options. MP7 and the Super Soaker, Type 95, ACR, FAD (in the post patch era), MK14. Akimbo FMGs. A lot of the snipers were usable, I remember the shotguns being pretty fun with the right proficiencies (Range mostly?). That plus dem specialist buffs. Yup, MW3 was awesome.
FAL in BO2 at all times.

I did MK14 first as a bit of a joke, knew it was bad, but hadn't really used it and wanted some semi-auto lovin'. Perk 1 and 3 greed were 3rd and 4th... Trying to remember what was second. I can't. Maybe it was scavenger? Maybe toughness? Most of the good stuff is unlocked pretty quickly anyway, the painful part is getting some of the attachments which you'll have to do each prestige anyway it seems.
Also, I've never seen a UAV in this game. I've looked a couple of times, but I'm never carrying a launcher anyway.

So, both Xbox One and PS4 have built in recording and easy export to YouTube. Heck, Xbox One you can just yell "Xbox Record That" and pick out a link from www.xboxclips.com . Meanwhile Nvidia has ShadowPlay to record everything, and AMD Radeon is for retards who may or may not have to use FRAPS or something, I don't know because I won't buy that junk #pasttrauma What I'm saying is there is no reason not to record moments, epic or stupid, and post 'em here for our pleasure. Anyway, my initial contribution: So, I hit prestige, joined a FFA match late in progress... and you know what... something about that didn't seem quite right. I mean, I guess I can't complain about 45,000+ XP and going from level one to level 12 in a third of a FFA, but two solid minutes of challenge vomit along with that stupid sound effect is a bit much.

Lol, I ran into him randomly during the first week of Titanfall having recognized his Origin name from a TF video of his with a few dozen views. I think it scared him that I recognized him based on that, maybe he's gone into hiding. I think he dumped TF right after grinding through to Gen 10 in the first week or two.

Nah... I love mouse and keyboard, but I still consider it an unfair advantage to have said control on a console. I don't see why I would bother to play since I would feel all of my success is due to my hardware alone. *shrug* Better than having no success, I always say.

My connection got pretty brutal tonight, but the game dutifully reported 4 bars. I think they're screwing with us now. Just say everything is 3-4 bars no matter how bad it is. Generally connection has been pretty good since the patch but that was a rough stretch.

Lightweight seems like one of the best perks to me. Flak jacket is game mode dependent, generally I haven't found it useful, I mean you have the freakin' boost to get away from any grenade you feel like, there's no claymores, seems like a general lack of explosives so why bother? Low Profile and Blast Suppressor seem like the must have perks, but there's not enough useful stuff in the Pick 13 to where I don't double up with Lightweight on that perk 1 slot.

Hole Puncher is pretty decent, but not really a FFA gun, which is what I've been playing 95% of the time (way too much as it turns out, #50 or so on the PS4 leaderboards). I STILL haven't unlocked MP11 Goliath. Driving me a little nuts, I use the cool looking yellow one with the forced laser sight because it looks my army man look sexy. But generally it's just the Bal show. I can't figure out what the hell most people are doing. They're not running Low Profile... maybe 1 or 2 guys per lobby are... despite the fact that the only killstreak worth a damn in that mode is the twice a game wallhack UAV and most of the other perks kind of suck anyway. Like what the hell is up with Fast Hands? Yeah, I really want to disable reload-canceling. That's totally what the quick reload people are all about. I guess scavenger and that stupid double tap reload are the de facto fast reload perk in this game? I'd be ok with that, except that I'm never sure if I am successfully sending the fast reload command, and so my reload cancel timing gets really screwy.

The rip-off laser sucks, as does the rip-off rocket launcher. The rip-off normal version is ok-ish, but pretty much a nerfed Death Machine from BO2. You can't sprint at all and expect to shoot anyone in time. They persist when you die and expire when they run out of ammo. No reason to use any of them.
Anyone find a use for any of the streaks beyond the UAV and the SYSTEM HACK XXXXXX OH YEAHHH YOUR SYSTEM HAS BEEN HACKED X SKULL X X SUKLL YEAHHHHHHHH SYSTEM HACK REBOOTING MOTHERFUCKER SYSTEM HACK?!?!

Not sure what the hell Respawn was thinking with this game. I can't even select a custom helmet, shin guards, jumpsuit, or paint my jump jets. It took months before I could even paint a logo on my titan for god's sake. The lack of swag is bad enough, but then have you tried quickscoping?!?

Tmartn's a turd. At least he could have done was shown it while strafing. Looks like about 15% reduction in hipfire spread on the KF5? That might be a little low, I honestly don't remember what it was in previous games for SMGs, stats are for nerds.

At this point it's pretty much analogous to Xbox Live Gold (or whatever they call it these days). Except that PS+ has historically had better games for free. But it seems like it hasn't been quite as good lately, like they've realized they can get away with being about the same as Microsoft.
Last I heard you don't need PS+ for free to play online games like War Thunder or Warframe, I think on Xbox that wasn't the case. But I know they changed some stuff on Xbox where stuff like Netflix used to be behind the Gold paywall, so maybe F2P will change or has changed on Xbox. PS+ has been very fruitful for people who have invested in all the Sony platforms. I don't think I've bought a single Vita game for example, because the thing is filled to the brim with PS+ stuff.

Another PS4 patch just hit. I guess 1:15am Pacific is their go-to time for them. I think I'll hop in for a few lag free rounds of Sledgehammer perfection.
Edit: Holy crap, first two rounds were actually lag free. Though there was a crazy bug where there was this one dude with a silenced gun, and anytime he fired anywhere on the map, I'd hear it as if I were the one shooting. Really distracting.
Edit again: Played for almost 3 hours on the new patch, connection felt very good. Even solid in a brief ground war stint. Hit detection like this was not happening for me at all pre-patch:

The sound design in this game is pure ass-garbage. Not just the footsteps, pretty much everything. May as well throw on parabolic mic, mute the game, and listen to some music while staring at the minimap.

Every once in a while it's useful to say "Xbox Pause" if your hands are drenched in BBQ sauce or something, but aside from that, that shit's a waste of time. It's just plain unreliable. If I tell it to go to "Fox Sports One" I'm usually fine. "Fox Sports Two" or "Fox Sports West", I can go fuck myself. You want it to figure out if you want to watch TBS or CBS? Good luck with that.
The snap TV stuff, I really only see it as useful for grindy stuff. Watching postage-stamp sized TV in the corner that drops 50+ percent of its frames isn't a great experience. Getting game invites while watching TV is pretty cool, if you're waiting for people to come online. It's less cool if you're trying to focus on your TV show and all of a sudden you get a stream of bloops and beeps to join various games and parties.
PC master race is definitely a thing, but it's not for everyone. And if you're talking COD, it's a console game at this point. You can't trust the PC versions.

I'm not sure what's going on. I thought this running out of loot spots thing was some sort of Destiny in-joke, but sure enough, only 32 slots left for dress-up toys... but... you can dismantle for XP, I don't see anything about materials... so maybe that is a Destiny in-joke. Uhh, so is there something I should do before I toss dress-up junk for XP to get more XP, or is it just the pittance offered? I had kind of figured it was just a 'collect them all' thing. Btw I don't mean to brag or anything, but I do have a Mountain Dew baseball cap and Doritos sunglasses in my armory. Turns out you have to buy a copy of AW from Walmart if you want that sweet Mountain Dew Exo-suit though. If only I had known... now the complete Mountain Dew and Dorito ensemble is beyond my grasp

IMR reload seems super long, but maybe I'm not canceling correctly. Also, call me crazy but I don't think it gets a headshot bonus, M8A1-style. Feels like a pretty useless weapon to me.

BLOODSHED HELMET NEW ITEMS (1)
FUCKING STOP WITH THIS SHIT LITTERING MY SCREEN.
Seriously, why won't this go away? Why can't I dismiss this?!? Even if I say to myself, ok fine, I'll put on this stupid looking paintball helmet, it just WON'T LEAVE ME ALONE!
Is this dress your Barbie doll shit the 'customization' options that people claim were missing from Titanfall?
