Call of Duty: Black Ops 4

Critic score dropped to an 85 as I predicted, but the user score is a 4.8. One of the bigger discrepancies I've ever seen on Metacritic. Honeymoon period seems to be winding down now.

If only you used your talents on something more meaningful like stock markets and sports betting instead of wasting it on video games.

I’m surprised how many people bought this game on my Live friends list. I haven’t seen this many people online on one game in years. Everyone seems to be enjoying it on my end.

CX360 Ive never understood why someone wants to play these games solo, COD is at its best with a group. This one is no different. Get some friends?

This one is very different. Once again, the team composition is beyond saving. Add into that the Overwatch style specialists system, the increased health and armor, and yeah, it's impossible to play solo.

I could post pictures of my combat record from every COD from 4 to WW2 and you'll see that I have a positive W/L ratio in all of them. I would say 95% of the time I played solo.

I play solo because I don't like being beholden to others. I can play what I want, at the pace I want. If I want to play one match and then watch a YouTube video for 20 minutes, I can do so without feeling guilty. If I want to play Domination for 5 games, then FFA, for 5, Kill Confirmed for 5, etc, I can do so.

Solo is the best way to play.
 
Just bought it. Pumped to play it. It’s about done downloading. My Xbox One X continues overtime.

That sounds like someone that has no friends. I feel sorry for you.

Why are you being insulting? I do have fiends. Somehow even friends that still have the same love for this stupid franchise as I do. I just choose to play solo. Plus I mostly play in the morning, when people are still asleep and s***.
 
I love Blackout. It's just so damn fun. I haven't touched the regular MP because Blackout is so addicting.

Because you're whining like a petulant child.

"I can't solo carry so the game sucks!"

Got back to back dinners with my little brother, dope little moment. Highly recommend saving flashbangs/dead silence/sensor darts towards the end.

On a side note: quads runs like s***.

The performance in quads is a joke. There are some matches that are unplayable.
 
I actually just got done playing a few hours of quads on PS4 (actually enjoyed myself). Performance was fine on my end. No one in my group mentioned anything of the sort either.

Pretty sure it's an Xbox problem, and I have a feeling it will never be fixed.
 
Played some Duos Blackout tonight. No matter where we landed on the map (even none named areas) we were getting in firefights immediately after touchdown. Was annoying.
 
Blackout is boring af like at BR games. MP is nearly unplayable due to lag comp/20hz tick rate/p2p lobbies. Will most likely wait until I finish RDR before I jump back in so they can fix this mess.
 
Anyone have any luck camping the bridges? Seems like they're high traffic areas but I never seem to get to any in time to post up.
 
So I wanted to try out Black Out, landed on roof of building, picked up gear, sprinted to my team mates location, got killed by sniper, game over. Never went back. Meh.

Back to core gameplay, DM, KC, TDM much more fun. Although I'm having serious lag issues, anyone else? Wondering if it's my setup as I'm using WiFi.

Yeah, I'd like to see a lower player count.

I had a few lag issues in Blackout duos, but regular modes I didn’t have any issues.

Coincidentally I went wired yesterday, first time in nearly six years of being wireless. And yesterday is the first time playing the game so I don’t know the wireless experience.
 
I still feel like armor is OP in Blackout.

I like where it's at personally, but wouldn't mind a higher base health.

The ABR is my fav weapon in Blackout, by far. Can't stand it in regular MP lol.

Got a 10 kill round yesterday, with all of them in the final circles. Clutched a 1v6 in the last minute. Set it to record the last 5 minutes and it record NOTHING. Salty.

Can confirm I have my best s***s in the morning.

Not sure if just general lag on your end, but the connection is complete trash in this game per the tick rate issue. Guarantee that is the cause of 90% of the lag issues in this game. If you find yourself dead before you've even come around the corner you'll know what I'm talking about.
