But since you paid to keep the stats exclusive to yourself and BM, keeping the stats out of all our hands, and you BOTH make an intolerable amount of significant mistakes, you can see how it might be frustrating. I did not pay to keep the stats exclusive to myself. I do have access to them but I didn't pay for it or negotiate the deal that way. Marv has had income issues for a while. Last time I tried to help it almost got me a strike from ATVI because donation links on videos with leaked content is big no-no. So, I introduced him to Brass Monkeigh who has a vested business interested in things like exclusive stats. I did so knowing full well that I might not have access to any stats and would be hand testing this year. It would really suck but the way I saw it, it was the right thing to do. Marv has done me right for years and I should attempt to return the favor. After their deal was done, I was informed that I could get access to the stats as a favor. I think I did ask for that favor at some point in their negotiations though. But no, I didn't pay BM or anyone else for rights. |

Ghosts was not a piece of shit. It suffered from poor map design DO YOU NOT REMEMBER HOW BIG AND GLORIOUS GHOSTS MAPS WERE?  ? |

I liked Ghosts' maps. Foxtrot me right? I found Ghosts to be similar to every other CoD as far as maps go: as long as you only play the half to 1/3 of them that are good, they're adequate. |

I liked Ghosts maps, especially the DLC maps (loved those). IMO the problem was that the rest of the game wasn't designed around those maps. Spawn logic was terrible, all the guns killed way too fast, player mobility was too low across the board, and lobby size needed to be much bigger in every mode to fit those maps.

DO YOU NOT REMEMBER HOW BIG AND GLORIOUS GHOSTS MAPS WERE? ? I always appreciate a game when the developers have the courage to make maps that aren't cramped when they attract a significant gaming population that favours CQC a lot. It always make me laugh when Destiny players class Pantheon as a snipers' map when we've had the likes of Stonehaven and Wasteland in COD. Edit: For those that don't know about Pantheon, the sniper sight lines are about the same distance as the room to room distances in Raid in Black Ops 2 for both sides, but the corridors are much thinner in Pantheon so you can drag your scope, like one milliarc second etc. |

DLC maps were pretty awesome though. A lot of people complained about IW 'jumping the shark', but I think that's a good thing. It means the developer can fuck around with wacky ideas every once in a while. Some people just like to find things to complain about. |

I would really hope they wouldn't be dumb enough to try a Ghosts 2. |

Yeah, they'd have to bring a lot of new shit to the table for Ghosts 2 to work.

Hi Driftor. I don't post loads on these forums but I read all of them. I really appreciate your videos and they are very informative. You know they are good due to the amount of views and subscribers. You cannot please everyone. Did you know some people didn't like the Transformers movie??? Idiots. Probably one of the greatest movies ever made, but like I said, you cannot please everyone. Also, I hope you get your family things sorted out. Family comes first no matter what the cost! Keep doing what you can to help everyone you love and let them help you too. But I would ask for help from someone, to help with your videos in the short term just so you can try to get on top of everything. Good luck and I look forward to watching your next video. Keep up the good work. Nice meme. |

Hey, Drift, if you come around again, may I offer a suggestion? A lot of your stat mistakes are things we ourselves could catch. Perhaps you could unlist your first cut of a video days ahead of time, let the Den bros proofview it, and then make some quick edits before you go live? Even if you just add annotations to fix the stats instead of editing+reuploading a new video, that'd be good enough. Keep the established face of CoD stats on YouTube but get a little more help behind the scenes.
And yeah, I have to agree that Ghost maps could probably workout in a game better designed to suit them. My problem was that you died so fast and had to worry about audio so much that it was very discouraging to be the one wandering around trying to find someone. But in a game like BO3 where you're more mobile and have a slower overall TtK, they'd be nicer.

Marvel4 So I came across this video and found it a little interesting. Basically he's saying that when the sprint-out time of a weapon is longer than the ADS time, the ADS time is increased to match it so that we don't have a situation where you can fully ADS but don't have the ability to fire (this may already be common knowledge from past games, excuse me if that's the case). What's odd is that from his testing, a lot of ARs and SMGs have a higher sprint-out time than their ADS time. So Marvel, is there any validity to this or is the testing bogus? Thank you for your time.

Thank you for your time. He's just saying what other users have pointed out here before: When using Quick Draw and Fast Hands, if you want to fire ADS from sprint you will take the highest value between the two, be it ADS time with Quick Draw or Sprintout Time with Fast Hands. While he doesn't outright make this conclusion using the middle column of his graphics (he says some odd stuff instead about fusion dances), it's basically the point he is making. One major thing left out is that ADS time and Sprintout Time varies, sometimes greatly, from gun to gun in each weapon type. So unfortunately the info isn't all that useful especially considering he didn't mention the guns he used for the test assuming he used only one gun from each weapon type. That said I am not opposed to COD YouTubers trying to get more into the technical side of it, there just wasn't any new info in this video. |

Like I said before, when you ADS while sprinting, the ADS animation and sprint out animation happen at the same time. The combined animation can be longer, but the ADS time and sprint out time don't change. The only exception is in Advanced Warfare, because it has another variable for ADS time while sprinting. That's correct. |
