I had to recently reinstall a bunch of data packs for Warzone. I uninstalled MW at this point just to save space. I'm half tempted to remove Warzone at this point as I rarely play.
I figured out what the problem was with MW MP content.

On WZ we can play Alcatraz just fine, but anytime we do Verdansk we have connection issues, get kicked, turns your console off, etc... ridiculous.

Double XP this weekend (BP, weapon and regular).

Time to power level that battle pass before the season ends. I'm at like 85ish so not sure if I'm going to get it done but 2xp will help.

I haven’t played much this season. I don’t think I’ve even hit lvl 50 on the BP.

Last I heard Season 3 is bringing the map changes to Verdansk.

They haven't announced anything specific about Warzone, but people were hoping for a new map, but it looks like it will just be an update to the old one. There was a leak that it was going to be an 80s version of the existing map which makes sense.

I've got to get back into Warzone. They've been banning cheaters left and right. I'm just so terrible at it. CW matchmaking is so much friendlier to me. I still have my positive win loss and k/d. In MW, I get pro lobbies, in CW, dad lobbies.

I like CW, but the LMG meta is getting old. People just camp and hard scope and you're dead in 2-3 shots from any range.
 
Also saw some insiders recently say that originally Cold War was going to launch with Blackout 2.0 and that would have been the new BR map, they scrapped that new map and are now just going to update Verdansk and go 80’s theme/make changes across the map. Also the new 2021 COD is a mess they spent all dev time at home and some are saying they should just scrap it and keep MW, CW, and Warzone another year.

I believe it. A new Warzone map should have been a no-brainer. Also, the "integration" of CW and Warzone has been a total mess. There really isn't integration, but instead they ported everything over.

They seem to just mail it in and make tons off microtransactions. I could definitely see myself skipping a COD game this fall if it is more of this, especially with some other games coming out.

The only thing CW has really done for me is capture that good Black Ops feel in 6v6 which other games seem to be lacking.

Apparently once Warzone became this massive hit and due to COVID they changed their plans leading into CW’s release. Guess they had to come up with new plans for Warzone going forward.
 
Miami Strike is growing on me for sure. Apocalypse is so much fun. Just a perfect map. I have a feeling that map will be a classic that gets remade in future versions.

Apparently they added a full auto pistol to Warzone and MW only and it is totally wrecking people. Like taking down people in Warzone with 3 plates like it is normal MP. :laugh: Of course it is long to unlock and you can just buy it in the store through a bundle. Who could have predicted that a full auto akimbo pistol would be an issue in the game?

Double XP (all) this weekend. Should start around 1pm eastern US. Apparently this pistol is not coming to CW next week with the new season. I still have no idea what we're getting.

Great now everyone will be running those on Alcatraz.
 
The snipers plus the Stoner campers get old in a hurry. I just quit out on any of the real bad camper maps now.
 
Finally unlocked that LC10 or whatever. Jesus it melts. Got it up to rank 22 in one match last night.
 
Figured. I don't see as many of them as I used to. I'll rank it up and see how beastly it can get.

It basically had the same damage range as an assault rifle, and basically no recoil.

It still has low recoil which makes it really strong still.

Any of the SMGs are good except for maybe the Milano.

Check out 3v3 faceoff mode for leveling up SMGs too. It is constant action on the small maps. Solo zombies works well too.

I have the AK74U ranked up all the way. I think that's the only one lol. I think the best gun in the game is the AK47. Thing is a beast.

The 74u is really good.

If you like the AK47, check out the Fara from the pass. It is similar and really god.
 
Anyone else get an fps bug on Series X? I quit tonight because every game was at like 20fps.

I used to get that but haven't in awhile. Hold down the Xbox button if it happens then just hit B to go back. Sometimes that clears it up for some reason. Just like you're going to shut down the console but cancel out.

Turn off ray tracing too, that has never really worked properly.

K, thanks. I'll try again later.
 
Everyone was running around on Alcatraz last night with that new pistol that melts. This guy took out two of us then while we watched he took out the last two guys with it easily for the win. Thing has 80 rounds!

Why are they so stupid on balancing their guns. It’s like they do this s*** on purpose over and over again.

I'm pretty sure they do it to sell bundles. Some players will unlock the guns, or you can just buy a bundle with all the stuff unlocked and then go thrash people. It has happened far too many times now. I wonder too if they think it brings players back to the game to try it out.

I haven't even played but I've seen it on Youtube and I think it kills a 3 armor person faster than in normal CW multiplayer. I'm glad this nonsense isn't in the main game.

The real problem is the power creep. With the meta now you get such fast time to kill values in Warzone that it is almost like regular MP.

I'll probably make a few solo jumps this afternoon just to say goodbye to the existing map, although I'm not sure how much they are really going to change.
 
A preview of the weapon tuning adjustments coming. Hopefully they are actually going to nerf LMGs effectively this time.

 
Nothing to snipers?

Nothing so far. The season is adding in a new sniper too that is supposed to be a quick scoper, so I'm not getting my hopes up. They love to leave their battlepass weapons overpowered.

I'm just hoping they adjust the LMGs that can 2 shot you anywhere on the map.

I'm also hoping the adjustment to assault rifles is a buff, which might give us a little more chance.

Sadly, when a sniper map comes up, I usually just back out. Sniping is so broken in this game. I can tell, because I am terrible at it and I can do it so easily.
