No idea on the why, but that is a huge discrepency. In 4 hours I'd be level 9-11. That has to be a mistake.
Call Of Duty: Black Ops "Cold War" (2020)

It is at least an hour per battle pass level for me, if not even more. My prestige stuff (which is useless) goes faster, but he pass itself drags. Maybe it does factor in XP? I know I have to put in a ton of hours to get this thing even close to finished. I just want to get the new guns.
If the levels are consistent then 1 or 2 hours a day should get that level 100
The BP progression shown at the end of a match is often wrong. It isn't that progress is inconsistent, it is that the system seems to lag behind fairly often.
That might be it. I know Fall Guys does the same thing. Sometimes you finish a match and look like you get nothing, but then it catches up eventually.
1-2 hours a day is just too much. 2 new maps isn't going to make me be able to play the game nearly that much. I have other games to play. COD shouldn't be a "grind" game.
Not sure what was up. I just remember normally a couple WZ matches (and we play Alcatraz Resurgence the most) get you a level. Last night I kept looking and it took 4 matches to go one of the BP levels and that was getting into the top teams and getting around 5 kills a match.
I think Menace is right, I bet there's just a lag so it doesn't show you what you earned accurately. I'm pretty sure the game only cares about time played, not how you do. I think you can just hide on a random spot on the map and get the same amount.
It wouldn't surprise me if they purposely show it incorrectly to get people to buy levels. I'm already forced to buy the boost that gets me into the 20s so I can get the guns in a reasonable time. At least that is mostly paid for from past passes.
I just did a little test. Played 4 matches of 6v6 TDM. Earned 246% BP progression. Which is 61% to 62% progression per game. 2.5 levels in about 50 minutes.
I played for an hour on lunch and I got 2 BP levels, so that seems better than in the past. That's more manageable anyway.
I really want to get that C58. Seems like it has almost no recoil and is supposed to be good.
Already ran into one hacker though. One guy was 10-0 on 6v6 TDM on Raid in 30 seconds. Like, how do you even find 10 people that fast? He was 27-1 within a minute and everyone quit. My fault for leaving crossplay on.

The MG32 seem to be a beast aswell. Almost have it unlocked.
Loving the Fara too. It is like the AK but faster fire rate and less verticle recoil.
I have crossplay turned on again...haven't had any issues thus far. *knock wood*
I just found out they stealth nerfed the AK too. They don't touch the gun, but they changed what the attachments do and how much they reduce recoil.
I like the Fara a lot better. Even with a full silencer it hits hard and takes people down. I can take out snipers sometimes if I know where they are and don't miss.
Crossplay is weird. I'll have 4-5 close matches, then get thrown in some crazy lobby where my team is all .25 and the other team is all 4.0+.
If you're looking for something on one of the bigger maps, try the DMR. It is still really good and kind of slept on. It is a super fast 2 tap kill. Even I can be good with it, so you know it is good
I've got most of my guns leveled up finally, but there's still a few to finish up. Really want to get to that new AR quickly and get some XP on it.
The C58 assault rifle seems really, really bad. It is just so slow and gets outgunned by everything else. If you want to level it up, stick to zombies. I was hoping for a good longer range slow firing AR, but it just has too much recoil and not enough damage to bother controlling it.
I noticed yesterday when we played some Highjacked and Hardpoint on random maps that guns are different on WZ/Cold War.
Highjacked is a blast I missed that map.
They guns are very different between Warzone and CW. They basically port them from CW to Warzone, so they can often have very different recoil patterns, and the attachments are often completely different. The Warzone FFAR used to have zero recoil, while the CW version would kick all over. Completely different guns, and one was overpowered, while the other was terrible. Typically the Warzone attachments let you dial out almost all recoil on many guns.
Be wary of Youtubers saying "X is OP". See if they are talking Warzone or CW. Few of them actually talk CW anymore. Supposedly some of these new guns are great in Warzone.
I think it’s funny they released this nail gun, if you don’t feel like completing the challenges you can pay 1,000 CP to unlock it, it’s OP in WZ people are already calling for a nerf, they need it but have already made their money off it lol. You can’t say they don’t do this s*** on purpose.
MG82 seems to be good in CW. Just need to get the ADS time down.
Don't listen to youtubers at all. They say x gun is OP but you'll do basically the same with it as any other gun. All guns are OP to youtubers because they are better than 95% of players. Plus, i'm absolutely convinced they duke the system and get in lower skill lobbies. I mean, Why is it the peaple in my 1.2KD lobbies laser beam me from the other side of the map but these "far better" players in content creator lobbies couldn't laser beam a barn door from 2 feet away?
Double Battle Pass XP is going on.
We’ve been racking up some wins in WZ lately. I’m at 66 wins on Rebirth Island Resurgence and KD is at 1.10 haven’t been running into much BS lately it has been playing well and not as many cheaters.

I can only stand Prop Hunt at this point. Seems to level up the pass fast enough. Are there any more maps coming in the next season or is this it?
Was listening to a podcast from yesterday and apparently a lot of the to streamers have left COD/WZ saying they’ve had enough of the cheating.
Oh and the new season hitting next week is hacker themed… Activision be trollin…
Yes, I think COD is in trouble. The new stand alone game still has no details on it, and I'm guessing Warzone isn't going to be radically changed.
I see lots of suspect things in Cold War, but it is hard to tell with all the lag. Sometimes people seem to know where you are before, but sometimes there's a bit of lag and you are just behind. I'm positive I've seen some cheats. When people are running around with high recoil SMGs and laser beaming across the map, you know they have a hardware cheat.
I'm pretty much only buying/playing games with good anti-cheat. If Battlefield doesn't have good anti-cheat, I am not buying it. I've been playing R6 Siege, only because it has one of the better anti-cheats. Even then people still get away with stuff.
I’ve thought about playing some PUBG, haven’t play that in a very long time. Yes hopefully BF is good and not filled with cheaters.
I know on console I had trouble finding 1st person only games on Xbox. I play some on PC and the cheating doesn't seem huge, but again it is hard to tell.
