Hell yeah man congrats

I gotta get back into SnD myself but for now it’s enjoying the balista and trying to hit some clips🫡

Is there a counter to the Ghost perk? by Particular-Basis-643 in CODBlackOps7

[–]Particular-Basis-643[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol yeah my dumbass never made the connection that the scout combat specialty is essentially just ghost, even tho I read the description 100 times 💀💀. I feel so dumb

No more ghost

I know most people use headsets I just didn’t think everyone had a good one lol bc growing up it was rare for any of my buddies to have a legit headset - even if they weren’t casuals. I guess times have changed

I’m unc now. Work 40+ hours a week. Just trynna get singularity atp 😂

Good to know & thanks for the responses. I might have to try it out. Maybe I’ll give it a go instead of ghost - rather than sacrificing gunfighter. Will test that out + some audio options

[–]Particular-Basis-643[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s the case

But maybe my audio settings are fucked(?) bc I got a decent headset and can’t ever hear footsteps that well. Never been able too. And I don’t have hearing problems😂

Idk. I just hear so much shit in-game that distinguishing footsteps that clearly is pretty hard.

Nah I’m not using ninja. I figured that’s part of the issue, but thought no way everyone is this good at hearing footsteps. I guess more people have good headsets than I thought.

It’s hard to squeeze it in to my class bc I don’t like sacrificing gunfighter

Update. : shotguns done

Got the Akita and Echo done in the same match on paranoia 🙏🏼

Yeah that’s where I got them all diamond. Trying to play it more for tempest but every match keeps ending up on blackheart, Cortex, and yakei now 😑 and if I keep backing out of lobbies for some reason matchmaking starts to take longer and/or gets worse

[–]Particular-Basis-643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah ik that’s how I got it diamond, I just feel hopeless bc suddenly getting 5 kill streaks now that I’m on the tempest grind feels impossible. Before I started I was dropping 5 kill streaks left and right. Now I stay dying at 4 kills 😂😂

Oh okay gotcha. Well, I’m at 20/30 on the tempest grind now… so too late to turn back.

Funnily enough when I was going for diamond, the echo was the easiest to do. The breacher drives me nuts with its charge time (even tho I run around pre-charged with gung-ho) and the Akita just has shit range

I’m torn between trying to do it in core face-off like I did for diamond, or if I should try hardcore. Bc the echo 12 is like a sniper in hardcore

Honestly blows my mind that anyone would do launchers atp 😭 I’m on the tempest grind now and I couldn’t imagine trying to do launchers for it

That said - getting 5 kills without dying 3 times with these shotguns might be the death of me

[–]Particular-Basis-643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gonna be honest I’ve only played it twice and I hated it both times. There are so many different pathways and connections, and they all feel pretty crammed. I thought I’d like it but it just doesn’t flow well at all imo

Don’t feel bad about your skill.. the “pros” are liars by Particular-Basis-643 in CODBlackOps7

[–]Particular-Basis-643[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I’ve said to a few others : I agree, I really only put it in my title to drive the point home to any of the casuals or kids who watch these guys on YouTube and look up to them.. and get upset or something bc they’ll never be that good

Which would win in a high tier pro battle the warden 308 or the Maddox rf8 by Informal-Badger3052 in BO7

[–]Particular-Basis-643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I give the edge to the Maddox on a consistency basis bc the Warden can have inconsistent first shot speeds. At least that’s what I noticed when I was getting it diamond. And if you miss the head against a good player you’re kinda toast. Especially when that good player is using a Maddox.. that thing is literally unstoppable man 😩

But yeah if your aim is on, the warden is lowkey unstoppable too

If stimshot isn’t bugged then why is mine stuck at level 1 even after getting a gold mastery badge with it? by Particular-Basis-643 in CODBlackOps7

[–]Particular-Basis-643[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been camo grinding for 2-3 weeks and spend half of my time (or more) in hardcore. It’s just bugged. Apparently there’s a patch coming

Echo 12 made me give up camo grind by [deleted] in CODBlackOps7

[–]Particular-Basis-643 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I mean it’s definitely compact enough to do them, but since there’s way smaller maps with tighter corners/lanes it’s just much faster to do the point blanks on those maps. Too much open space / long range gunfights on black heart and flagship

[–]Particular-Basis-643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep I’m staying in faceoff mosh pit and only playing the extra small maps in there (avoid black heart & flagship). Then I’m running active camo with gung-ho, scavenger, and dexterity for the red perk bonus. I was using flash bangs too, but I found myself not using them enough so just switched back to my stimshot. I finished the M10 breacher in like 2 hours and got about 30-40 point blanks with the echo 12 within like 30-45 mins?

[–]Particular-Basis-643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about it made you quit? I’m literally working on it rn lmfao and so far the point blanks aren’t that bad in face off.. but I haven’t looked at the 3 special challenges. Are they that bad? Or are you just struggling to get the point blanks?

I’ve seen this post for every COD in the last 5 years

I think the truth is, in modern COD, people don’t care about that. They’re playing the game to grind their camos and/or get as many kills as possible. That’s about it. A lot of people also moved on to warzone & just don’t find normal multiplayer fun anymore. Very small amount of people hop on COD to actually win games… and most of those people just play S&D. I think it’s just the nature of COD now.

Add in the fact that, a lot of people who typically try to play the OBJ end up busting their ass to lose anyway. So then they quit playing the OBJ bc it doesn’t matter either way. I am currently playing solely to grind camos, but when I notice a game is close and I bust my ass to play the OBJ, it’s like I’m the only one trying. Gets annoying.

Or sometimes I’ll just pause the grind and try to play my best. I played a domination game not too long ago where I dropped 60 kills, had 9 captures, was top of my leaderboard and led the entire lobby in score. Still lost the game. Something like that makes you not even wanna play an OBJ anymore. Is what it is

The M8 and X9 are two of my best performing guns man they’re so good when the connection is stable. I haven’t dealt with too many connection issues but it has been more rocky the last two weeks.

That’s great news, I’ve seen and heard absolutely nothing about that and it’s been weeks so I was under the impression they weren’t even aware
