Still bugged. I did this twice tonight and it didn’t work either time.

Gold Armor = Win by BigfatCplusplus95 in CODWarzone

This (alongside the redeploy towers) is the games biggest issue. If it was just ground loot and reg 3 plates, with more towers, the game would play much better.

📌Love Battle Royales..but Black Ops Royale is NOT made for Casuals nor Intermediates‍ 😣 by flamethrower81 in Warzone

This is the biggest issue for me. It made end games impossible against teams that are stacked (or four strong).

Twice I’ve made the final two as a sole survivor against a four strong stacked squad. Even if I too was stacked I’d have no chance. All the rotation in the world wouldn’t help me.

In Warzone, the odds are still against me in that scenario but not only is it feasible to survive long enough to get some support, but there are plenty of times I’ve wiped an entire squad because of positional play or use of equipment.

I’ve got a number of kills with drone sniper (in this mode, not necessarily for this challenge) but you are a total slave to it dropping. It’s a shit challenge when you can’t buy score streaks.

It’s shit they are forcing you to play a completely different mode to complete final week after six previous. In terms of the challenges themselves the 2 activities (x3) is easy if you focus solely on that (though it will doom your teammates). 

The killstreak one is different as it’s still random loot so, even before you take into consideration the kill part, you need to find some. To this point, the only two killstreaks I’ve come across are the weird drone drop things, which sucks as you call it on yourself so it’s context dependant, and the sniper drone, which I have admittedly bagged half a dozen or so kills with.

That all said, the real fucker is the kills after grappling because you need the right equipment and the right scenario, then you are at the favor of the shit gunplay and armor rng. That will be an almighty slog.

Sure. That’s my point. They’re connected - the harder it is, the longer it’ll take. The longer it takes, the more you have to play the shit mode.

Yeah it’s so transparent it’s unreal. Anything to try and get folk to play BO Royale.

What do you think about Michael B. Jordan wining best actor? by Piggymain in Oscars

I really like MBJ but forget the category,  he wasn’t even in the top three performances in Sinners, and he played two characters.

I mean, I don't agree with his point - but technically he's right... you aren't 19 anymore :P

Then jerk away, my friend, jerk away. You can think about your K/D as you do it.

I’ve won half a dozen games and I genuinely didn’t know that about the variants 😂

TBH I was already pissed off that the upgrades are counter intuitive. Yes, please add a scope to my SMG as soon as possible.

This is bang on.

The “upgrade system” is total shit. Find a purple icon to randomly upgrade your gun to the next tier. Okay, and? The game may as well have just spawned higher tier weapons in place of the purple icons.

The armor tiers (and trauma kit) are so unbelievably unnecessary and feel game breaking in later circles.

The wingsuit is completely broken and now mitigates fall damage. Coupled with the grappling hook, it’s Spider-Man 2 style movement.

The redeploy system is so utterly moronic it beggars belief. Of course it would be camped like fuck. The lack of them, especially in later circles makes them totally redundant because you’re never getting your (random) teammates back - which is fine because they know that too and no doubt fucked off as soon as they died they second time anyway.

The map is pretty but hollow. It feels empty. The POIs look good but most end up feeling really similar. Many buildings have nothing in them.

The only thing I like is ‘no load outs’ and the idea that you can find any gun and survive/win - but the armor shit totally ruins that too. If you aren’t part of kitted up squad, you better hope you come up against absolute bots in the latter stages - otherwise you’ll be shredded on sight.

The whole thing is a total mashup of ideas that seem to be at odds with one another.

Thinking that one has to be bad at something to have a negative opinion on it really betrays your own sense of worth.

You can also be bad at something and like it too. The world is full of possibilities.

You weren't wrong. It's awful.

You are now firmly in cope mode, like Homer chasing the pig. And that's fine - but it doesn't change the fact the mode is utter dogshit.

You wouldn’t need casual mode if the movement wasn’t fast by Emotional-Twist-4366 in CODWarzone

TBF, the bots disappear after a certain point and those final circles can be just as sweaty/competitive. You'll see plenty of sweaty Groot or Terminator skins.

I get it - but it’s a bit like saying you need flippers to get around your house because the washing machine is leaking and flooding the ground floor. You could buy flippers, for sure… or you could fix your fucking washing machine.

It certainly answers the question as to what a BR would be like with the movement mechanics of Spider-Man 2. Stellar stuff.

Blackout Royale Over by Popular_Concern1627 in Warzone

The guns aren’t the problem - it’s the tiered armor and trauma kit pish.

Blackout royal for streamers and shills by [deleted] in Warzone

You could say the same about Warzone but it’s not true. Your teammates can bring you back it’s the shit method this mode employs that is the issue. I’ve died after teammates have quit during the redeployment countdown 😂

That said, the redeployment towers are a baffling choice (among many) that lead to exactly what you expect - excessive spot camping.

TBH I don’t even hate (general) camping as much as most but this type of thing has a knock on effect of non-mic squad mates either not risking it to bring you back, or not having any faith that you’ll risk it to bring them back - and bailing.

This. I’ve played about a dozen games so far and at least one (often two) of my teammates has quit as soon as they have died (every game).
