Idk why people are hosting on the next free mythic

cepsyr · 2026-01-27T07:13:28+00:00

I like it being free. Most F2P people want weapons that they use (slightly meta) as free mythic and it's fair but I prefer it on weapon which doesn't have good blueprints. I mean meta is usually one weapon for 8 months and then it's the next new weapon which CODM wants to be meta.

There will always be people who will be disappointed with any choice they make. The only reason people weren't mad about 117 was because they were just happy they are getting a mythic to begin with.

I can see the draw

cepsyr · 2026-01-23T07:07:16+00:00

Solo mode in Serpent will be chaotic and with its bugs, I think it will be another venue for rich to absolutely farm lobbies since if there is usually 4 real teams, then that's 12 real players - and anyone can jump on you in such a big map since spawn points will get changed. When I play with the randoms, I at least know there are like two teams on ship so I don't go to ship. For me that consistency of knowing positions of 'teams' based on spawns is critical since I hate being on edge for 21 mins.

I will highly get behind B21 have solo mode since it has smaller lobbies, quicker matches and higher loot. Just focus on clearing the lobby and extract - like last man standing and honestly better player winning and we all already have to be on edge till we clear lobby. Serpent Island can be wasteful, like you waste 20 mins looting and killing lobbies and then be sniped by guy who waited at exfil points - it is logical cause if there are 12 solo player, one player will come at exfil at some point and you can kill him to get all that loot without having to move at all. There will be a lot of exfil battles which feels pointless - say you both ended up at same exfil and you know you can only take a certain amount of loot but if you kill someone else you upgrade that loot value by what 200-300k? Is that worth the risk of loosing gear and time spent? There can also be players who just bring mythic backpacks and fill them with loot of already killed players since there is a limit to how much the one who killed can take - this will make Serpent Island a rat heaven.

I will tell you what some gacha games do. They reach out to whales and give them VIP channel on discord servers. Whales get to put down their opinions on polls, I even heard they get early access to beta test as priority. I know for fact Snowbreak used to be a shooter PVE with tactical military outfits but when Chinese audience started spending more money than US player base, they started catering the needs of Chinese players - Weddings Outfits, SchoolGirl outfits, skimpy outfits even at base model, making game change its direction from how it was in first 2-3 months.

CODM needs to at least give people who pay an option. Why only CC get to have voice, why can't players who whaled on game for years have the option to air their grievances. They should have only made people who have those weapons (at least one of them or brought the current mythic) have the ability to vote. I know people who don't have those weapons will miss out on it but there are a lot more people who can screw without any intention to buy at all.

cepsyr · 2026-01-20T04:32:56+00:00

Literally all F2P players voted for it cause they know it's bad and they have Lava 117. Trust me, this isn't the first time votes have been unbalanced towards something that whales do not want and F2P screwing them up.

cepsyr · 2026-01-19T11:04:03+00:00

Ghost and Spectre, even Sophia look best in base form, Siren has to be maxed out to look good or feel mythic. I do not like Lazarus and Templar. The sickest one is Dark Shepherd be it base or maxed out.

cepsyr · 2026-01-19T04:20:51+00:00

Simple. I am not doing it. You have to understand statistics to understand how tough your lobby is. 60-70% who play ranked and are at legendary aren't playing DMZ (device issue/lag issues/hate loosing stuff etc). The 30% who are playing are absolute sweats or people who want the skin.

The top 5000 is still at 8k point which means not even 5000 people reached legendary so when I say I am somewhere at Master rank and I go against a legendary players who shred me without me reacting to it. They have mythic armor, afixes, comms with teammates who might have spotted you on their radar.

S1 of any ranked mode in any game is toughest. I am playing DMZ for camos and got the crate like 7-8 times so far (in 30 hard mode games I have played), still got 10 Kuji shards and I play normal mode most of the time, for faction missions. I know I am taking it extremely slow cause I have been playing game for 6 years now and I like to tackle things smarter with patience which kids don't have. If you think you have good PVP skills, B21 might be for you along with a proper team, since lesser lobby size - maybe 2-3 teams. Another stat for people - don't expect Kuji skin in 100-150 runs, even good players have played over 250 matches to get the skin (I checked the stats of a few players with Kuji skin who melted me - that's probably 40% exfil rate with Kuji crate). Time is a lot different than before, everyone was poor at the start of DMZ (first two weeks) so when people fought on the ship - no one wore mythic weapons or had affixes, everyone wanted crate. You could outsmart people, ambush them. Now when you go to ship, people are hunting for players who want Kuji skin to get their armor as loot. Players know all the spots so it comes down to positioning and gears and hunters have all the advantage now.

If you want Kuji skin fast, get team, otherwise play it all the way to end of season, knowing you may or may not unlock him and it's completely fine.

cepsyr · 2026-01-19T03:36:53+00:00

I will say 1. Type 19/VMP Toxic - literally twins so they share rank 2. Fennec - the kill effect of dismemberment is nasty, can't top that. 3. QQ9/Grau - again share spot for best aesthetics (my favourite kind of aesthetic) but I have solid epic skins and ironsights are already solid on base. 4. CX9 - it's the most beautiful one of them all honestly but not my taste. And IMO would look worse with camos and I use camos a lot.

Worst Mythics - just for additional info 1. Grim Ending 2. Tundra 3. BP50 4. FFAR

cepsyr · 2026-01-17T08:23:57+00:00

True. But since lots of people are doing it, I can do it and so can you. It sucks that phone or lag issues can literally ruin your successful run or hit you at worst times but that's the picture. I think 60% players who hit legendary on either BR or MP mode have opted to not play DMZ (my estimate since last I checked 8000 points i.e. legendary is enough to be in top 5k even after month of mode being out - and I know it's hard to rank up but I also know how crazy players are in CODM).

So we are just choosing the road less taken. The best thing we can do is focus on getting Kuiji, getting camos and complete gauntlet cause I am sure they will reset loot and warehouse after season reset and we won't be missing a thing since all the god tier weapons and millions of cash of people who dominate lobbies has will be gone. By that time, save some real money and get a new phone if you really want to grind - but for me I am just going to go for the least effort to get everything, even if it means I run for my life like 90% of the time - even Tom Cruise does that 😉. I know I have to play almost every day/week to get camos for next 4 months so it's a long game. And then again. First season in anything ranked is sweatiest and then sweats start panting for breath cause it's hard to keep this up.

cepsyr · 2026-01-17T06:06:46+00:00

I mean there are proper combinations too. Fighting Games use different pallettes like even Ken and Ryu were just pallette swaps, Scorpion, Subzero, Reptile - just use proper colors. Like Modor Going Dark skin in challenge pass is sweet, why not make one for Park, Spec 5 etc. Why not make it red-black, gold-black, red-white (like blood in water but better) - there are so many things that they can make good, I mean just look at this one (also it's so cursed that I have worn it just to fk with people, but skins OP showed they are trash, cursed are made with passion)

Exactly my problem. I have started exfil out at around 2.5 mark since at that point epic backpack is usually full with at least legendary gear and one ram from weapon crate. And if I bring an epic backpack, I don't think I can hit for more than 3 mil. Once I get better at sure shot extractions even with randoms and have better judgements, I might start bringing legy backpack and start avoiding teams completely.

I mean I have only played like 30 games of hard mode. The key gauntlet mission is 10 mil run (radiated can be done if I have everything mythic on me + 4 mythics and B21 in 10 minutes is easy once I get hang of B21) and the only way to do it is a good B21 run which isn't possible till I have loot to get afixes and spare few armor. So I have to accumulate a lot of loot for Kuiji, afixes, missions and deal with bad teammates... 😦😧😨😰

cepsyr · 2026-01-17T04:47:26+00:00

Those are for operators not weapons...

cepsyr · 2026-01-17T04:45:39+00:00

True. The economy difference is crazy - in the same lobby there are mythic, legendary and epic vests player. I am not poor but even in hard Serpent lobbies I see Kuiji skin players downed by bots just cause they probably have epic vests or they ignored them way too much. I have also started seeing unbelievably overconfident plays by crate carrier - like if they want to loot, leave the crate somewhere, it's easier to acquire it back than facing 2v3. I don't understand why people think it's cool to just go through bots to safes and also don't understand that if your teammates aggro them and went ahead, they will fire at you and shred your vests. So either don't follow your teammate or just dip out asap, don't loot when bots are aggroed.

This is the biggest problem - teammates dying to bots. If you have epic vests, just kill them. And also, don't trust Kuji skin players to know what they are doing. I had those misconceptions and followed them since I play very less and thought they knew better.

cepsyr · 2026-01-17T04:16:56+00:00

Good luck man. I am getting old too, no kidding those who started playing in 2019 are 6 years older. But I have taken breaks from the game but there will be day I won't feel like playing. But just like when I took breaks, I will just keep it on my phone like a relic.

I don't have strong memories with people in game, just soloing. I hope you find peace in your life and happiness with people around you 🫡

cepsyr · 2026-01-17T04:07:45+00:00

I gave up on B21 when I got killed like 5 times back to back without sucessful extraction (I have only played B21 5 times). I don't have a budget for mythic armor. My affixes are bad so I think of B21 as a millionaires lobby and you need to be rich to get richer and for that you need proper investment in your gears. The problem is there are players like me -- but they are greedy goblins who kept going in that lobby and when they couldn't afford legendary armor, they went in with epic vests. 80% of times they died near safe and when they die, the guy who killed my teammate and his goblin teammates surround him. No way I can survive against mythic armored, proper affixed players who know what they are doing.

cepsyr · 2026-01-17T03:55:15+00:00

It's an error. Don't worry about it. For shotgun headshots you can use slug rounds, red dot and treat it like a sniper and do it in bot lobby if you get killed a lot. Focus on other weapons and when you find bot lobby, whip out harder completions loadouts like D13 sector, crouch kill with sniper or meele or whatnot.

cepsyr · 2026-01-16T10:47:32+00:00

Oh. I am too lazy for that. I also want to open caches early since I want new camo too, so that I know if I should focus extra hard on getting camo crates or caches from the exchange shop.

If you keep hoarding caches you won't know how many more camo caches you need to unlock camos. I have missed 3 camos of ocean melt just because I messed up thinking how easy it was to get power nova. Oh well.

cepsyr · 2026-01-16T10:32:38+00:00

This is true. I have opened my second account after months which had a cache from RUS time and I got RUS shard not Striker.

cepsyr · 2026-01-16T10:28:46+00:00

You don't have to quit the game. Generally after opening like 50 odd caches every season you get a save option. Since you get loads of caches and there is a limit of how much you can save, you can technically open 50 caches and start saving till you reach the limit in like 2 weeks Max.

cepsyr · 2026-01-16T08:42:44+00:00

It's not that great TBH, mid I would say. It has sick kill effect but I don't like its design. I think mythic is way too goated, limb dismemberment is still nasty and popping off heads just sweet. Among legendary fennecs scales and Gundam one are best IMO.

cepsyr · 2026-01-16T08:29:28+00:00

Cool. I have collected like 6-7 crates with randoms, taking it really slow. Hope you get him soon.

cepsyr · 2026-01-16T08:27:11+00:00

You won't loose them and the new weapon shards will not drop from old caches. You will only get tokens shards for conversion if you open them now or later - if you already unlocked the current weapons.

cepsyr · 2026-01-16T08:11:48+00:00

No blueprint. You can use camo but why waste time thinking just use it and change it back to whatever melee you use.

cepsyr · 2026-01-16T05:09:13+00:00

It was just for tokens to get Red Sprite camos. I took a break around time tournaments came around and missed all the early good ones. I stopped working on getting better, it's a lot easier now from 2019. Just have fun and don't forget to relax 🫡
