PC CoD is a desolate hellscape of loneliness and despair. Play CSGO. You already are using XIM for CoD.

How high is the barrier for entry to CSGO? I played Counterstrike:Source years and years ago very briefly and just remember not really being sure what guns to buy before every match, or something. Since then I've grown accustomed to the COD respawn style of play.
I still fire up MW2 and MW3 on PC once in a while. That was my go to during AW which I disliked.

The only time I hear people talking on Xbox is when they forget to disable Kinect game chat, and I get bombarded with their mom screaming at them from another room while they have a fan blowing into the Kinect microphone and a baby crying beside them. This is pretty much every open mic ever. It's a universal truth.

It's tough to say how hard it is to start; it depends on prior experience with tactical shooters and mouse aiming on PC. It takes time to learn, but such is the case with most multiplayer PC games I think. I guess if respawn is your thing, then S&D as the major game mode may not be appealing. But having only one life per round also makes decision-making more crucial and situations more tense. There's a major going on right now, so you can check that out to see how it's played at the highest level.

Mouse aiming isn't a problem since I'm one of those XIM using douche bags. I prefer tactical shooters to bullet sponge type FPS. SOCOM was my favorite game back in the day and that was why I tried Counterstrike over a decade ago initially before migrating over to the COD world.
At this point I am so set in my ways it's just hard to get into a "new" game. I basically play the same RPG series' and FPS series' year to year... I'm boring.

You never know when your tastes change. I was having a fine time with IW, but I started to watch a few CS matches and got more interested. The game only costing $15 made it a very easy purchase, although I later had to spend more on computer upgrades, and my PS4 is only a netflix player now.

So eager to get that crack hit, then get addicted and want more, then you'll get hung over again, after you're $60-$200 poorer.

Takes a while to get the hang of it, but it's pretty fun. Guns feel like they take a long time to kill. Only playing TDM for the moment though, I feel like I'd get pissed playing War with randoms. Hawk and all the BO3 people need to get their ass back online so we can roll people again.

Posted this on hey den but might as well post this here too:
Ok guys here is the quick look at the stats from my playtesting
Grease Gun = nice 3 shot range with alright firerate. EVERY YOUTUBER IS SLEEPING ON THIS PPSH = 4 shot but fast firerate
as far as ttk goes, the grease gun is probably faster.
STG = long 4 shot range, fastest firing AR The first AR = slower shooting than STG, no 3 shot range as well. Worse STG M1 Garand = 2 shot semi auto
Lewis = 3 shot kill LMG even from far. Alright firerate but since it has a 3 shot, its ttk is exceptional
Haven't tried the second LMG but it should be a 4 shot kill
The third LMG has an absurdly slow firerate and ADS. Can't tell if it 2 shots.
THE EXCLUSIVE SMG FOR THE AIRBORNE CLASS IS GARBAGE. 5 shot kill from close range lmaooooooooooo.
I am 100% confident on the shots to kill of the guns besides the second LMG and third LMG

Forgot the Type 100.
Basically a longer 4 shot range grease gun but with no 3 shot range. Probably longer 5 shot range too but even the PPSH has a long enough 5 shot range for SMGs

TDM wasn't much fun. Too lazy to try the other modes. I'll get to war eventually. Maybe. Nobody I play with is going to be happy when they load it up next week on Xbox and there's still no S&D.

First impressions, I like it, feels like COD. Needs bumper jumper for us poors that can't afford a scuff to jump shot around corners. War is fun with team mates that go for the objective. Maps feel a bit small.
Oh, and COD will be COD, a buddy and I had a 2x6 TDM, but we lost it by just one kill, so I'm OK with it.

Some of the enemy actually left.

Apparently the sprint out time is very slow on everything remotely good. Hello walking meta.

Played all day. This game is better than Advanced Warfare, but still worse than any non-SH title.
It feels very much like World at War, not just in the setting, but in the pace, and the restrictive loadouts.
SH still can't do the little details right. The post-game is lethargic, and you'll get told you unlocked rapid-fire repeatedly. The menus are an abomination. Details like a sound indicating you scavenged equipment are missing.
Footsteps aren't just bad, they're unacceptable. Enemies are completely inaudible, even when they shouldn't be.
The lack of infinite sprint is infuriating as a shotgun user.
Sorry to disappoint you, lust, but I won't be purchasing it.

No footstep sound is actually great
The sprint out time sucks
Other than that this is pretty good game

Worse than Infinite Warfare? Ruhroh. Couldn't tell you, it's the only one since COD4 I haven't touched. I can't imagine Infinite Warfare is worse than any of the SH titles.
