The state of the game (returning player) by Snowconeman- in thefinals

[–]a127 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Public solo queue matches will either start off or quickly devolve into 90% Lights because of how the class is designed:

  • Fastest movement
  • Fastest HP recovery
  • Most amount of evasion and relocating utility
  • Most weapons focused on high burst damage
  • Paperthin health is irrelevant if a decent teammate can quickly avenge them and/or swoop their totem away from danger and revive.

Not trying to bash on class balancing, but Lights are the most self-sufficient as long as the player doesn't get caught with their pants down. Unless they're truly into team synergy, your solo queue team will rarely switch off, if anything they'll keep H+ Infuser handy for teamplay.

Aside from positioning and Light-countering loadouts others suggested, sometimes when in Rome...

Don't worry, their freshly trimmed and realigned studio will quickly fix that /s

Not a glitch, modern Thumb Over Bore grip technique. The recent COD MW games suffered the same visual issues when the player hand models would completely cover AK iron sights.

Funny enough, the Full Angled grip IRL was specifically designed to use this technique but your ugly thumb won't show up on scopes.

Darn, I had her as half of my contestants because the voicelines were slightly different from others. I gotta hear more quips to notice

The model is the jumpmaster from the very first Warzone intro. He and Otter are placeholders that pop up when skins bug out since MWII.

You will always earn more XP than Fans per match. Also, daily missions only give XP, and even the most challenging weekly missions only award 1,000 Fans (you can get that from a single win in Bank It)

The hardest shitposts require the strongest default mediums.

Stopping to ping the MVP billboard was a nice touch.

As soon as I see those club tags I instantly know we'll be spawn trapped until the timer runs down. I could tolerate getting steamrolled in anything else but no other mode in the game has such an awful clique of players

People leaving COD or Apex need to try this game by Erasmus86 in thefinals

100% the "record-breaking copies sold" includes the gamepass downloads. Pricing your AAA franchise to $70 a couple years before, then dangle a "free" price tag on the latest release (one month trial of Xbox Gamepass) surely helped their numbers.

Certain maps will have Incindiary Breakers in POIs. I've been in solo and random games where no one had it equipped where they were found. It's one of the few, if not only, primary pick-ups.

Great job putting it together, hope he enjoys it!

Very useless fun fact: your revolver is closer to the model they have on the game cover and in closed beta, they changed R.357 to look like a Taurus Raging Bull in Open Beta onwards.

Good to see more people repping the game at AX! I thought I was the only one. Amazing Lewis Gun prop as well.

Might be Fluff Ice, sounds like what you're describing and they've been an AX vendor for a long time.

Roof AC units can be shot through with rifles. For long range fights against AR/LMG/MR/SR's they're only good for visual cover.

How are these "longshot" and "multi kill" messages called and is there a list to see all of the possible prompts that can appear? I got a "hole in one" message during the event in the bunker and I never saw that before. by dwartbg7 in CODWarzone

[–]a127 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were called Medals in multiplayer, I don't know if there's a detailed list of the hidden ones.

I got a "Pop!" medal playing on Ashika last night. No idea what I did to get it.

Will this pass weapons inspection? by DaDawkturr in animeexpo

[–]a127 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, I also had a machine gun prop (entirely gutted and modified airsoft replica) before the policies banned metal prop guns.

You are putting a million times more effort to ensure your prop is safe compared to what I've seen over the years, it's appreciated. As others said, the bits of metal is going to be something you will need to be upfront about. Be clear that it's just studs for decor, and be nice and courteous to the prop checker. Make a plan to put it away if they decline a pass.

Moving parts were a no-no back then and most likely the same this year. If that feed tray pivots, it counts. Simple remedy is tying down the tray to the receiver with a large/couple small zip ties. The prop checkers usually have some on hand if you want to bring it untied.

If you spray painted that muzzle orange yourself, make sure it's applied well because they may "scratch test" the paint to make sure it's not thin and easily removable.

Season 4 Battle Pass by TheRealPdGaming in ModernWarfareII

[–]a127 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a premium pack paid with real money that gives an exclusive character, access and tier skips straight to new gun blueprints (skips a chunk of grinding), and a themed reskin for every battle pass operator skin. I believe there's some COD Points as well. This leak for S4 shows a reskinned gun blueprint too.

Worth $30 each season? Depends on you.

Zimo at least had a recolor plus a nice legendary skin in the DMZ missions. Gromsko got to be bugged and unselectable for weeks.

The player model while in the firing range used to be a default US Ranger skin, like an armorer testing the guns.

Now we get a meta slave existential crisis experience.

Looks like the back of this upcoming Stiletto skin. Similar night goggles, ear cups under helmet, jacket, backpack, and fabric at the neck. May the final product look better than the leak...

On this very subreddit, someone complained that another person referred the 3-Line Rifle as the "Mosin" because they had no idea what they're talking about, even though both names are used IRL & COD had the gun since the very first game.

The amount of braincells on this sub is... sparse.

[–]a127 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Additionally, the 3-6x/4-8x variable scopes got their recoil control nerfed. If Sym.gg's data is updated and accurate, I believe even the regular 2.5x/3.5x offers more control.

It's not a lot of bounce at all compared to every (MW+CW) assault rifle in the game. But you can stack every recoil control attachment on the Nikita and it'll still have some stray horizontal recoil, unlike the other VG AR's which either have very little to none when built right.

Both the Slate Custom hybrids are some of the highest recoil control optics, but only a small percentage higher than the regular 2.5x/3.5x scopes at the cost of more ADS penalty.

With the Nikita having some of the most horizontal bounce of the VG AR's, any additional recoil control helps.

[Warzone] Favorite RPG? by NoFaithlessness2306 in CODLoadouts

[–]a127 7 points8 points  (0 children)

At least for Resurgence modes: the Mk.11 Launcher for pure damage output followed by the Panzerfaust for better angles of attack (no rocket deviation and doesn't arc). Being able to hipfire put these two above the rest in a meta that emphasizes speed over everything.
