I'm not sure why some people are having a hard time getting kills in this game. I lifetime average 1.60+ kdr, and in most games, I'm now doing over 2.0 kdr.

The game is indeed frantic, but if "you" don't play frantically, then getting kills becomes easier. Way too many people are just all over the place, and they need to calm down while playing....although that makes for easier kills for me.
I love when noobs just hover in the air thinking that'll help them...and that just makes them easier targets, lol.

Yeah I find too many people greatly overuse exo abilities. Stay off the map and don't make yourself a giant target. Even if you have the perk to keep you off the map, the sound is a dead giveaway.

The keys to success are still the same. Flank, stay off the map as much as possible.

I feel like this game would be soooo much better if they added the Halo style recharge to all your moves. In other words, you couldn't spam them all the time, there would be a cooldown. I miss the strategy/teamwork of older CoD's instead of everybody just randomly flying anywhere at any given time.

Yeah you should get two jumps like in most games then a cooldown. That would still make it easy to get on top of most things.

Although people who do this get beat by people with good headphones. When nobody friendly is on the map and you hear that sound you know someone is close.

Also is the ASM1 completely overpowered or is it just that everyone uses it? I have a config with the AK12 for range and the ASM1 for in close. It is such a cheesy config. If I don't use the ASM though I get owned by it in close quarters.
 
I think I am taxed out for CoD games. I was pretty good at CoD4 and MW 2. After that, I lost track. Ghosts was so terrible, in my opinion. I thought AW might have rekindled some love for the series but I am conclusively over it.

AW has great graphics, weight, sound, and design. It's a great CoD and I applaud Sledgehammer for their efforts but the series is simply no longer for me.

Not trying to troll because I do think the game is quite good.
 
To me, the game does a lot of things well, or at least a lot of things to limit the stuff that annoys people:

-I have not run into extreme camping/sniping. Not everyone likes the more run and gun style, but it is better than Ghosts where everyone camped with LMGs or snipers.
-Map design is varied. Different areas of each map play differently. There's open areas and tight areas mixed together. (map design is huge for determining how the game plays)
-Kill streaks seem decent, not too many really bad ones (although the system hack can gtfo)
-The spawns seem ok, I think? People still get the jump on me but it seems that they just used the exo to move fast.
-The supply stuff seems pretty fun without being too overpowered.

My big problem is weapon balance. There's 3 guns used in the game. Bal, AK12 and ASM1. It is just boring using the same guns over and over. Another balance patch is needed badly. I have one config I use basically. Ak12 + ASM1. Boring.

Yep, once I switched to the AK12 my performance has gone up. Also, everytime I look through the leader board it is dominated by the AK12. I really can not do jack with Sub-machine gins in this game and they were my go to weapons in all previous COD games.
 
The ASM1 is very good too, but I think this is a more AR type of game, at least the way I play.

I can dominate with the KP5 smg.

The AK12 is also the only assault rifle I used. All others so far have too much recoil.

I find myself enjoying classic modes more than standard. All the jumping around makes matches feel like I'm trapped on a bounce house and everyone is high on cocaine. It can be fun though.

I have found that if you play the standard modes more like old games and use the exo suit sparingly it usually works to your advantage. Most people are looking for the jumpers & dashers. All you have to do is keep what the exo suit can do in mind, and keep an eye on the upper levels.
 
So, I seem to have found a groove with the MP11 Sub-machine gun. Gets a lot better with advanced rifling to extend its effective range. Makes it a much better medium range weapon, while maintaining its CQB effectiveness

Can't wait to get back to WW2.

Agreed. Will probably be the first CoD I get in a while when we go back. Miss that time period, and WaW is still my favorite, especially the campaign.

Yeah I miss the simple things in WAW like calling in the dogs, loud clank headshots and blowing off enemies appendages with the double barrel.

And infinite grenades by the enemy. Can't forget infinite grenades.
 
I played a few matches last night and every time i died the person who shot me looked like they were lagging. CoD: AW in a nutshell lol. Still a fun game though.
 
Played 3 hours straight this afternoon and really enjoyed it. A few games developed some serious lag though, why oh why was this not on azure. I have changed up my weapon again too, have been tearing it up with the KF5 with Laser, Grip, and something else. Also, the Gung Ho perk makes a big difference, IMO.

I do agree with what somebody said- think it was Kerosene-the exo movement should have had a cool-down on it.
 
You can thank skill based matchmaking for the lag. They prioritize skill (no idea how they measure it) over ping, so you end up playing with players who are about as good as you, but may be 2000 miles away on an old DSL line. Overall it isn't too different from past games, but you can feel it. I sprinted 3 steps around a corner before dying last night. The killcam shows me standing there. I had a couple real good games last night, one where I went 17-4. I know I'm not that good, I must have been on the good end of the lag. Everyone I shot dropped. The hit detection can be really off. Other times it seems I am almost empty and the other person isn't dead.

I'm trying to use different weapons other than the AK12. Started using the ARX a bit. Seems ok, but tough to compete with the AK and ASM. It is boring to use the same gun though.

Really? It is not very effective at matching skill. No skill based system that allows diverse parties is going to be effective. Even the Ranked playlist fails at skill matching and that playlist is based solely on the principle of matched skill.

No, isn't. That's the joke. People complain because they get put in lobbies with people who are higher prestige. Who cares? Any idiot can level up and not be very good. I'm level 20-something and could care less if I run into someone who's on their 4th prestige. I just go outside more :)

Actually nobody is 100% sure how it works. Just another dumb idea that doesn't even really work.

Yeah, basing skill on prestige is lolz worthy.

What makes me laugh is how the COD series continually trolls its fans. Fans cry about this combo of perks and the next COD makes it worse. People cry about Lag/Lag Comp and the next COD seeks to make it worse.

This one is far better than Ghosts. Though recently it seems to be creeping up a little.
 
Ghosts was better for me for some reason, but I seem to be in the minority. This game isn't bad, but I get those moments where my bullets just don't register.
