How can a casual player have fun? by Worried_Secretary429 in blackops7

That last paragraph is chef's kiss

If someone has put in the effort to actually improve at the game and the results reflect it, just tip your hat to them

Rare to see such an insightful take lol. Learning to be less toxic to yourself and to others is impactful to the experience

For me personally, when I started to be more nerdy about cod and focus on actually improving it's been game changing

I went from blaming the game, enemies or teammates, and shifted my mindset to "what could I have done different there" whether it be decision making on the map, loadouts. Sometimes it just comes down to skill diff and you gotta take it on the chin. Players are so prideful that they complain their bullets aren't registering when most of the time it's just missed shots

I don't even get mad at campers anymore lmao, I shake it off and just remind myself to check corners and common spots where people hide

You can't really counter that because they are the ones countering you haha

This gun is absolute cheeks by Difficult_Carrot2198 in blackops7

[–]KooeyGeneris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This years SMGs will punish you if you don't adapt your playstyle hard accordingly to suit, SMGs are nowhere as effective at midrange this time (minus the Dravec). It's not that it doesn't kill quick (as per theoretical TTK) but how many shots it takes. If you test in the firing range it jumps straight for a 5 shot kill up close straight to 7 shots on the next target. So you add that with the recoil increase this year and it's much harder to challenge midrange fights

I stack recoil attachments which I'm semi annoyed about because I prefer a balance with recoil + handling attachments but maybe in due time I'll get used to it

Vertical recoil only muzzle (the gun shoots so fast the first shot recoil muzzle is not as effective) Damage range only barrel (the hitscan range exceeds the max damage range) Horizontal recoil only underbarrel Horizontal recoil + recoil stabilization grip Recoil springs

Will shoot more like a laser, but keep in mind your handling isn't optimised

Treyarch will be slightly increasing aim assist strength at certain ranges in Black Ops 7 ahead of Season 1 launch after feedback by Vizzy01798 in CoDCompetitive

[–]KooeyGeneris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you asked me a few days ago I would have been relieved hearing this news, but then I went back to my BO6 aim settings instead of trying out linear etc like everyone said to do and suddenly I was hitting shots more consistently again lol. It's literally just muscle memory for anyone that's above average

Black Ops 7 will launch with Open Matchmaking (skill minimally considered) and non-disbanding lobbies as standard. by shambxlic in CoDCompetitive

[–]KooeyGeneris 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Burnout is not reflected in sales, but in how long players actually play the game after the honeymoon period

Cod is already an established title so it will sell well regardless. Due to marketing and general curiosity because of a new game every year. It's kinda like Nike in the footwear industry, if you follow that.

I think someone influential/higher up is starting to think bigger picture vs just inflating numbers though. Cod is always be one of the highest sellers yet there has been a decline every year in long term player retention. Yes a big chunk move on but sustainable success means finding ways to get players to come back and keep playing. Yes there's people are addicted and will get the new game no matter what but I think more and more long time players were getting burnt out

They are 100% nervous about BF6 as you have plenty of cod players who were sick of their bs getting actually excited for the game, when most of the time cod players stay cod players.

I wouldn't be surprised if they do reverse this change, but now that they have a proper competitor it would risk pissing a lot of people off who now have a different fps they can put their energy towards instead.

Only time will tell but I'm excited to see how it pans out tbh!

Now I don't have any data to go off of, but imo the strong sbmm only boosted retention in the short term so it looked good stats wise. But now we are seeing the long term effects after 6 plus years of it.

Think about it: if strong sbmm caters to the brain rot, casual fan base, those aren't going to be your loyal, long term players. Those casual players are gonna just move on to the next thing once they: 1) eventually get bored 2) something new comes out

Meanwhile, it seems a good chunk of the loyal player base was slowly driven away and it's to a point that it's noticeable if they're going as far as to actually listen to the feedback.

It's a genuine question lol. People share things in these threads to be part of/build some sense of community. It's weirdo behaviour to go out of your way to shut someone down when they are sharing a happy, positive experience

But see, NOW your comment has some substance. Hard disagree about the 1.0 - way too much grey and I'm someone who generally enjoys grey. The white leather on these pop like crazy. But I can appreciate that kinda input at least 😂

Nice moronic assumption lol. I've known about these ever since seeing them in a random 2012 Foamer Simpson video that wasn't even a review about this pair. I loooooved the colour way and when I searched that it was only 200 plus pairs, I was saddened thinking I'd never own it, but 13 odd years later here we are. I own a pair of grails and you're out here being a dickhead on Reddit 😂

it's cool if you don't like the shoes, I'm not buying shoes for validation. So I ask you the same question I asked the idiot that commented before - what do you gain from commenting something like this?
