99.9% of it is BS propagated by people finding an excuse for their own poor play.

Its not worth focusing on, at all. Instead just work on your game and personal play style and just freakin' have fun.

I personally think it is fine at 75. I like that TDM is primarily player v player and not dominated by scorestreaks.

Yep, still can't advertise here.

I fear the day is going to come where they start selling cryptos or the crates themselves.

At least in this title people can't get anything game changing.

itll work eventually its annoying as heck but just keep exiting and entering exiting and entering... smmfh its a shame....took me like 20 min to actually get into a game

Personally would rather have double Crypto weekend.

Oh dear Lord.

There has never been an easier explosive to avoid than the tripmine.

They don't need to fix anything about it.

Love: Nuketown

Hate: Anything not Nuketown

Lol all jokes aside most maps are pretty cool but some are just *meh* (Redwood).

Most likely it's simply the servers getting far more overloaded than usual so more people on listen servers etc.

It is definitely NOT our connection for this issue, it's their network.

I honestly am enjoying pretty much all of the maps right now. I feel like they were very well designed for the movement, as I feel AW's downfall was the maps just weren't well suited for the movement in that game. The design on these maps seems a lot more thoughtful, and I am constantly finding new routes and surprises on each map. As a tactical mover in HC modes, I love that most of the maps offer numerous attack points and flanking routes, and that there aren't too many ridiculous sight lines.

For whatever reason, I seem to have the most success on Infection (the WWII map) and Exodus. Maybe my nostalgia for WWII games kicks in on Infection, not sure. But it really just seems to suit me wel. Had a 35-8 game in HC TDM on there the other day. Exodus just is an awesome map with so many ways to play it. Only had one bad experience when a team of weenies just sat in the back of one of the spawns the entire game.

My least favorite has to be Combine. I have good games on that map, and it is sometimes enjoyable, but for the most part it always seems to feel like a cluster to me. Too many opportunities for spawn killing and it can be just a little too crazy at times for my liking. But then I have never been a big fan of the smaller maps.

I think the Maps are really a big part of why I am enjoying MP so much this title.

Here's your proof... again....

But can launch a tomahawk across the map with no wind up haha! Silly isn't it?

I would definitely love to see some Pendulum on GHTV Witchcraft and Watercolour to be exact, as they both have music videos. I would also love if Self vs Self made it into the game, but unfortunately it doesn't have a music video (to my knowledge) so I'm unsure if there's a way to work around that or if it's just impossible. But some Pendulum would be great. Thanks!

Any Help? I Really Want That Camo :(

I get annoyed at those that correct spelling, etc. However, sometimes it is necessary. I think you meant clips.

Use engineer and a launcher you can free-fire. That way, even though you're using 2 slots, you are getting a full range of uses from them. You can use the launcher to take out ground-based score streaks, or even people. You can use engineer to see every enemy item, tactical and lethal, HIVE pods, etc.
Or, use your eyes and your primary weapon.
Or, use ghost and hope your team doesn't run around and get killed.

Or, like every other thing in every other COD game, use one of the many ways to counter it.
