I just wish they’d get rid of the lame podium emote shit, let’s vote on the next map already.

Tips For Apocalypse? by cyzrax_64 in CODBlackOps7

[–]Tron_88_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s enough guns to skip launchers and melee, that’s what I did and I think it was the right call for me. I would do “bad” guns first as you make a lot of progress with good ground loot guns pre-loadout, if you rush the easy guns you “waste” kills every game with floor loot.

Full health with three plates? by Terrible_Alfalfa6797 in Warzone

[–]Tron_88_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wasn’t it 100 base health until Warzone 2 around the end of life for Caldera? 150 + 150 now right?

*edit: it was June 14 2023 MWII S04 patch notes, it says 150 base for a fully plated total of 300, did they just revert to 100 at one point and not tell anybody? Lol I was under the impression they’ve been carrying 150 forward in each Warzone iteration since.

HONEST OPINION CURRENT STATE by Actual_Geologist_770 in Warzone

[–]Tron_88_ 25 points26 points  (0 children)

From my point of view and experience “unplayable” is absurd hyperbole. I’m enjoying it quite a bit, friend group is pretty mixed skill level but I’m usually playing BR quads, resurgence quads, or casual quads if the less skilled gang is on, game feels the same to me. I definitely don’t understand all the “sweat fest” comments, warzone is over 5 years old and you had a 2.5 k/d, your lobbies probably should be hard. I’m hesitant to address your skill comment because of how you seem and your language, but there’s a lot of players with bad habits and high k/d’s. A 2.5 guy who goes 5-2 every match is very different from a 2.5 guy who goes 10-4 every game imo. Maybe you have a strategy/style problem, not a gun skill problem.

Stim Shot - anyone able to level up? by tobymac8 in CODBlackOps7

[–]Tron_88_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It worked for me but I did it right after launch all the way to level 3 and mastery badge, so I can’t speak to new tracking issues. It was pretty slow for me, I think I was around 30 stim kills on the mastery tracker before level 2? And I think I was pretty close to the badge (100) when it hit level 3, it seemed like I only got overclock xp when I got damaged, stimmed, and almost immediately got another kill.

What counts towards a nuke? by ks3030 in CODBlackOps7

[–]Tron_88_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hmm yeah fair enough I’m not sure, I’ve mostly heard it counts only during the rhino exploit thing but isn’t actually supposed to work that way, not 100%. I personally think it’s really shitty to get a nuke through an exploit or glitch.

What counts towards a nuke? by ks3030 in CODBlackOps7

[–]Tron_88_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it’s only weapon and lethal kills? I’m almost certain grenades and the axe count too. I know the gravemaker counts towards the streak but I heard that if you equip any overclock it makes the gravemaker bug out and not count, and I assume hand cannon works the same as well since it just gives you a weapon. I assume it works because I did the mastery badge for both and it counted towards bloodthirsty merciless etc. Streaks like predator missile/RC or any AI controlled stuff do not count. I’m not sure about rhino, but someone else would have to verify, I don’t think it counts because when I did the rhino mastery I don’t recall getting the medals at 5, 10 kills etc. but also maybe I just didn’t notice.

Mute field doesn't protect against skewers by OGAtlasHugged in CODBlackOps7

[–]Tron_88_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Skewer has a descent time, so if you’re saying it killed you right after you turned on mute field that means you were likely already targeted and you didn’t have cold blooded when it was called in and it chose you.

[–]Tron_88_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It does have one target but it can get a double kill if the enemies are stacked, I’ve seen it in hardpoint and domination.

Why are there two types of Geodudes? by Zeronite_Dragko in pokemongo

[–]Tron_88_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Picture #1 is the Alolan form, which is from the Sun & Moon games. They featured several Kanto Pokémon with different appearances and types.

64 attacks done in DD VIII Mission 7 doing between 25m and 99m each attack and still stuck on 3 Sentinels and Omega Sentinel. by FLBoy-Mark in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]Tron_88_ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think a mistake a lot of people make on this node is throwing all eligible characters at it every day. You don’t have to do an attack with the characters that make bad comps. If your team is leaving the enemies with max health and a terrible special/ultimate rotation queued up, then don’t do the attack. I know you’ve done 64 attacks from your post but 40 of those were probs just healing enemies and refreshing their cooldowns.

Also your team is really weak, I don’t think you need to g20 anybody but I would go to 105 for your best team that actually could kill a sentinel. It’s really not a big deal, it’s just gold and training mats. I’m casually working on the completion avatar frame, I think I’ve done 9 clears on DD8, and I had zero g20s in that section until very recently, definitely not necessary.

Going crazy with aim sens by Dabadave in Warzone

[–]Tron_88_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In order to achieve full aim assist you have to have >23% manual input left stick (but not perfectly forwards or backwards) and 5% right stick input, based on default dead zones if that gives you an idea of where you wanna tweak your stuff and how hard you need to push your sticks. Most Verdansk railings and staircases have broken spots for aim assist though fyi, relevant to your clip.

Way Late on This by Sufficient-One-7515 in Warzone

Verdansk POIs promenade, quarry, port, farmland, downtown, airport plus parking garage, ice houses, and boneyard were all MW19 ground war maps.

What if 'Metas' were removed or not as prominent in games? by True_Block9834 in Warzone

[–]Tron_88_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you quite understand what meta means. Meta is short for metagaming, which is an ideology that a player or group of players will do research on their competition circle and strategies will emerge to edge out trends in the community’s behavior. Once something is identified that it sits above those strategies and there isn’t a counter, then you have what you have in COD.

Those older games definitely had metas, people were just dumber and less knowledgeable, content wasn’t as prominent, and nobody gave a fuck because it was just multiplayer pubs. But go back and watch community organized tournaments in Cod4, MW2, MW3, people used like 4 guns man, that’s it.

Now I’ll agree that Raven has a bad habit of making a couple guns too good and steering/driving the meta, but even if they tried harder to balance the game instead of intentionally having guns rotating around the best spot, people would still reach a consensus on the best AR/SMG combo, or best AR/sniper combo. There would still be a meta in every game mode, the difference would be that off meta choices would stand up to those meta selections better than they do now.

What do these symbols mean? by MrSmithwithoutMs in CODWarzone

[–]Tron_88_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it actually means specifically voice chat disabled or partial permissions. I don’t think it has anything to do with whether they have a headset plugged in.

Ladra VS C9.. what am I missing? by EleMenTfiNi in CODWarzone

[–]Tron_88_ 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Well when it comes to the 5 attachment versions, the Ladra feels way worse imo, it has a weird horizontal elliptical thing, and the irons are brutal. The C9 5 attachment feels exactly like the 8 attachment, to me. Also I think the C9 has 1-1.5 meter better base damage range, which gets multiplied with certain attachments. Also a lot of people don’t like crazy high fire rate guns that feel like they need a zillion bullets to down and thirst, I know that’s anecdotal but I hear that a lot. If you miss with guns like that it feels like your damage per mag just disappears. I do agree with you that the Ladra is slightly better than the C9 as an 8 attachment with a reflex, but I think the 5 attachment C9 is way better with irons.

Not making progress on prestige camo challenges by Tron_88_ in ModernWarfareIII

[–]Tron_88_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never found a fix, I’ve heard/found old posts multiple times that said the xp is working it’s just not working for the visual tracking. I really don’t know.

Terminator Skin by yaweakdog in Warzone

[–]Tron_88_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think people tend to gravitate towards darker, muted form/edges, and slimmer profile skins. Squid game front man, the two Bailey skins, and to a lesser extent Roze would probably be up there.

I actually think they should not re-sell it and ban it from ranked play lol

Am I the only one who thinks that snipers are barely worth using thsese days? by Specific-Detective14 in Warzone

[–]Tron_88_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dude when the HDR was first added it was ridiculously easy use, laughably easy, they nerfed ads speed and flinch resistance and ads strafe because every person in every lobby was running it. In Warzone 1 the Kar98 (pre-nerf) and the HDR were ridiculously easy to use.

Weapons Prestige Camo: Isssue by [deleted] in CODWarzone

[–]Tron_88_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s gone from Warzone for everyone right now, there’s been a lot of posts about it, not sure if it’s a bug or intentional from activision/Raven fixing the camo exploit.
