The type 2 is a terrible 5hk weapon
My go-to weapons right now are the ERAD, KBAR, and R3K. Once I get the Volk I'll use it since it's a 3hk. BO3 really made my quickscoping trash so when I get the full game I'll definitely be in private bot lobbies getting my aim back.
I really hope they buff shotguns.

Ya the type 2 is pretty short ranged. I like aesthetic of the gun. I hope they don't make it weak at the AR role just because it has an alt fire option. Kbar is much better.

So no awareness/sitrep soundwhoring perks? Messed around with the beta tonight and didn't see it as a perk. Nothing so far. Maybe an effect will be slapped in the full game somewhere. I have a hard time IW made this game. It's like they didn't even try. The only sound related thing I think is there is the Epic Banshee with Shockwave. Causes slight hearing loss. Pretty shitty, especially with no sound currently.

I'll be sad if it's gone. It'll be a major adjustment for me. What's the point of dead silence if that's the case, I can barely hear people.
On the whole, I like this installment so far. I can't tell if the annoyingly quick death feeling I get is psychological from reading about it or a legit issue. Aiming also seems different from BO3 which I got heavily used to (17 days playtime). Maps so far are just OK, right off the bat one or two of them (the Europa map and Frontier) are a little more confusing at first than treyarchs strict three lane fare, but that's not necessarily a bad thing yet. Terminal is obviously great and the old Town one is good.
For some reason, whenever I start off with a Treyarch COD, I start off real strong, but when I first start an IW game I'm garbage. Don't know why that is, my guess is it's the simplicity of the maps and high TTK of Treyarch games vs IW and the others makes? Or maybe auto aim in treyarch games is stickier or something? No idea.

I'd like these maps if it were a flat, "boots on the ground" COD. For a game with this movement system, there definitely needs to be more verticality. Invisible barriers blocking access to areas that appear to be accessible just kills this type of game for me. Oh, you can double jump and wallrun to get 50 feet in the air, but that 15 foot high rooftop? Nah the developers don't want you up there.

Good point, that is annoying. BO3 had that problem on some maps as well.

I noticed the invisible wall thing a lot less in the IW beta than I did in BO3. Maybe they just brainwashed me into not even trying to use the mobility to actually go places. Sad!

I have no doubt that if there was a larger player base on PC and there was sufficient time with the mapmaking tools the community could make more fun maps that intelligently utilize the new wall running/jumping/sliding movement mechanics and new and unique ways.

You know I’m automatically attracted to walljumping — I just start riding them. It’s like a magnet. Just ride. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grip it by the surface. You can do anything.
I always wanted to get the Nuclear Medals. This was much easier.
I've had a beautiful, I've had a flawless match. You'll be writing books about this triple nuke flawless match.
I was shocked to hear [Muh haters] mention the L-word. You know what the L-word is. Number one he doesn’t like it and number two he doesn’t respect cod players. I think he’s going to respect your players if I’m winning and I hope he likes me.
I alone can fix it.
I think I am, actually humble. I think I'm much more humble than you would understand.
The CoD community, the Battlefield community, the Titanfall community — they are so much in favor of what I’ve been saying over the last three or four days. Ask the CoD pro's what they think and what they do, in, not only call of duty, but many of these games, and then you tell me — who’s your friend, Activision or EA?
I’ve been treated very unfairly by this player. Now, this player is of Mexican heritage. I'm riding the wall, OK? I'm riding the wall.

I personally did not have fun with the beta. Had way more fun with the Titanfall beta and bf1. This will be the first cod game I will not buy day one since cod4. Hoping for a stand-alone mwr, but don't have my hopes up. Gg.

Honestly I was probably going to get it just for MWR. IW being sort of kind of fun is icing on the cake.

They couldn't get away with it if people just said "no." This is actually one of the more rational COD buying decisions I've made, if you can believe that. I know I like MW1, since I played it for a bajillion hours. I liked IW, because I played the demo, the first time since BO3 we have ever been able to actually try a COD before buying. I'm content. In my opinion scorn should primarily be reserved for people who buy in game currency. Simply overcharging for the base game in 2016 is almost quaint compared to the new reality.

I'll bet they never separate MW1 from the main game, and they just lower the price for the package. Especially if they make opening weekend numbers they can brag about again.

I think last year they bragged about making half a billion in the first three days or something? Every year they come up with some figure to make it the highest grossing entertainment sale in [insert arbitrary amount of time within which they can establish a record]. If I remember correctly, I think a little over half of the sales of almost all COD's since MW1 have happened within the first week of the game's release, so it's very important to hit big right out of the gate because that predicts the rest of the years sales. So if they do hit big they could care less about appeasing us with consumer friendly moves like unbundling MW1, because they know roughly how the rest of the year will turn out after the first week. Plus, the big unknown is their in game sales figures, which we only get vague hints about from Activision itself, so they are always rosy. And if they don't hit big, I am not so sure they will be thinking "hmmm, we should have unbundled the game." Instead they may be thinking "hmm, we shouldn't have spent the extra money on re-doing MW1..."
I think Ghosts was the last time they were a little more circumspect since it was the worst selling one since WaW. But I'm sure I'm wrong. That's not to pooh-pooh Ghosts sales either, it still sold like 20 million units, which most video game developers would die to have. Activision just has very high sales goals since this is their money printer next to WoW, and its release is timed to boost the all important Q4 numbers so shareholders are happy, so they always need to blow smoke up everyone's ass about how amazing their COD sales are.

I personally did not have fun with the beta. Had way more fun with the Titanfall beta and bf1. This will be the first cod game I will not buy day one since cod4. Same. After seeing the BF1 trailer several months ago, I knew i had to play it. (BF was never an option for us, because i always splitscreen with my wife, and BF had no splitscreen. When BO3 came out and the splitscreen sucked, i bought another ps4 and gaming monitor.) Bought BF4 to learn the mechanics and prepare, and ended up having a TON of fun. Theres just so many ways to play, contribute, and have fun in BF, it makes CoD feel VERY limited in comparison. Even before the trailers for IW came out, i had a feeling I'd never be returning to CoD. More space robots doing backflips with pink guns really killed it for me (also, no interest in a rehash of CoD4; i started on MW2). BF1 is even more amazing than expected; haven't had this much fun since MW2. Easily my favorite FPS ever. If you haven't given it a chance, you really should. If anyone wants to add me on PS4, screenname is Oak_Beard. I probably wont be posting here anymore, since all teh BF talk is on Symthic. It's been real.

GodMars - Is it really that hard for you to believe that a person could...
a) not give a crap about a measly $90 for what will end up being DAYS of play time b) value having a few extra months of game time with high player count
Or is anyone who doesn't believe in the Martian God a 'fool' or 'sucker'?

I mean, even if they do unbundle it, I'm just paying it because I don't care about paying more to play it now, not because I think this is some exclusive deal for me and my other fatcat friends who can afford $90 for a videogame! *replaces monocle* if ur buying cod in 2016 ur already a fool Why are you here?
