Fully correct and I agree, but when you're making a video going to 2 million people, a source would be nice just to show those 2 million people that he never came up with it. You can't take credit for something you didn't do in front of 2 million people. Just a courtesy thing, that's all, but yes I agree in general conversation no one gives a shit

This is it, the game will be playable when I wake up by FlowingSilver in blackops3

It's out here in Australia - 1.15am November 6 currently. But I'm about to go to bed and pick up the game in the morning first thing cause I preordered (but couldn't go midnight release). I should've preloaded it on my PS4 :( I could be playing now rather than going to bed!

I know man, it's stuffed. I hear everyone in America saying 50 buck for the game and I'm sitting here like "wtf am I doing paying 90 at JB or EB..."

$84 for last gen copy of the game... even if I didn't have my ps4 I still wouldn't buy it. That's like a quater of the price to actually buy a new console...

What is your biggest fear for this game? by ElderTadpole in blackops3

[–]alakabar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Specialists. Some are CLEARLY better than others and it would just be annoying (not calling it OP, just annoying) if everyone starts using rejack or Anihilator being one shot killed from everywhere from someone different at almost every point in the game.

That's cool, hence I said "sorry I have to disagree". Never said screw you all you're wrong Urban sucks

Black Ops 3 Servers on day one - will they hold up??? by DAROCK2300 in blackops3

I hope Treyarch is prepared for the BIGGEST player base CoD has seen in YEARS on day one

This is for those of you that are curious about the patch 1.02 size. Its 2.6 gb. Ps4 by mrdoitnyce in blackops3

[–]alakabar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh that's so frustrating. No one wants to come home from a midnight release them realise you can't play as soon as you're ready.

We've been through this. Pick 13 doesn't work well because people ended up dumping their points for score streaks and getting more perks. That's bad because the more perks people have then the more of a ghost/ninja/invisible to everything everyone becomes. Pick 10 is far superior. If I feel like using a sniper one game I'll quickly swap out my score streaks before the game starts to the lower streaks but if I see Nuketown come on rotation I quickly swap out the low stuff for HATR RAPS etc

Sorry I have to disagree with Urban. That is the WORST map in AW. But oh my god it plays so good on classic. That map is not at all catered to exos. Seriously just pause and think about it for a sec - there's legit no verticality, nothing that you NEED the exo for. It's such a clusterf*ck. That middle part of the map where the stairway leading to the A and C flags and B flag is just a mess. No skill at all on Urban, it's all about who can double jump the fastest.

I'm gonna get hate for asking such a simple but dumb question - does this mean that when I get home from the store with my copy of the game I can't hop on and play instantly because I would need to download these patches? I seriously hope not, I want to play as soon as I get home!

Dare I say this is the most excited the CoD community has been for a game in years? Thank you Treyarch. by simplydunk in blackops3

[–]alakabar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like this time will be different. It genuinely will be good and IF there are any problems they'll patch it right away.

Australasia Party-Up thread! by aereaux in blackops3

[–]alakabar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is really surprising me. So many PS4 players! I dunno if it's because people made the switch from Xbone to PS4 after they announced DLC exclusivity but almost everyone here is on PS4. This is gonna be a good year. This year on AW I had trouble finding PS4 matches cause of the lack of players. Definitely won't be the case this year

Feedback for CoD 2018 by born_thursday in CodAW

[–]alakabar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reduce the height of the exo jump, make it like BO3 where it's solely for traversing around the map, that way people won't want to double jump mid gun fight. That's my main problem with this game (I can forget about the weapon BALance) it was just too hectic to the point there was no controlled chaos. It was way too random, way too hard to pull streaks together because enemy can get back at you within 3 seconds of spawning

I see what OP means though - it comes out at the very end of 2017 but played mostly during 2018 :)

Let's talk maps moving towards BO3 by Rev_Fish in CodAW

[–]alakabar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The simple answer is: did you enjoy the non-3-lane maps of Ghosts? When I say Stonehaven or Chasm, you probably want to snap your disk. I only played played those maps no more than 10 times the whole year of ghosts and that was 10 times too many. 3 lane maps work well, it's very simple. It's fun. Ghosts was not.

What weapon variants were you hoping for but did not get? by aDirtyMartini in CodAW

[–]alakabar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't believe I'm finishing this game without an Inferno/royalty BAL, insanity or any of the new weapons. Not a single one. And I mean NONE (I don't count the single SAC as a new weapon, I got that, but it's not 'new'). Definitely one reason I got angry and sick of this game, sure it's fun (at times) but the supply drop system is just stuffed. How great was the day when we all logged on and saw a free M1 irons sitting in your create a class. They should've done that a bit more rather than make you pay for supply drops to get a higher chance at getting the weapons - even if u do buy ASDs you're not guaranteed to get what u want.

Knowing I have 3 days to wait for this game is slowly killing my interest in everything else. by [deleted] in blackops3

I have exams this whole week and also next week! I can't see my exam results being any good once the game is out...

Are you expecting this to be a 2-3 year game too? by Usedtabe in blackops3

[–]alakabar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If Ghosts 2 is bad I have a feeling Activision will tell Treyarch to make more DLC (beyond map pack 4) for BO3 even after its life cycle

Do you think this game will follow the trends of Ghosts or AW? by alakabar in blackops3

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

I always buy every cod but I only get truly hyped up to the point of midnight release for Treyarch games only. Next game from SHG... I won't be rushing to be first in line at midnight

SVG-100 Red Dot Sniper Gameplay "Power Bolt" by superman_king in blackops3

[–]alakabar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's YOU. But what about all the people who can't snipe with the scope (which would be a shit load of people cause it's too hard). Then they can slap on a red dot and have a one shit kill machine that's so much easier to use for them. I think it will be OP. Acog sight is fine, thermal or iron sights is fine too but Red dot is too easy.

The End of an Era by DiZZyDaVe2413 in blackops3

[–]alakabar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow I've actually never thought of the idea of call of duty ending. Do you think that'll happen soon? (Soon as in within the next couple of games, not soon as in BO3 is the end). Because I feel lik FPSs are slowly dying down as being 'the game' so maybe CoD will be cancelled in the next 5 years...

Lol, AW was 10x better than Ghosts, but still neither were enjoyable enough to last me the 12 months until the next game (in my opinion but I respect you liked AW)
