drahkon Posted October 15, 2016 Author Posted October 15, 2016 (edited) Played a couple more matches. Playing the standard playlist after 5 months of Hardcore is tough Did fairly well, though. Can't wait for the full game. The beta made me upgrade my pre-order. I now have the Legacy Pro Edition pre-ordered. Comes with the MW Remaster and the Season pass (20€ less than buying the Season Pass separately). Edited October 15, 2016 by drahkon
drahkon Posted October 18, 2016 Author Posted October 18, 2016 I like the lower time to kill in COD games. Same here. I like a really low TTK that's why I'm looking forward to the IW Hardcore Playlist : peace:
CoolFunkMan Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 I didn't get to play tons of the beta, but it was pretty fun! I really sucked at it though. And for the most random news you'll hear all day, Lewis Hamilton is going to be in the single player campaign: https://www.vg247.com/2016/10/19/f1-champion-lewis-hamilton-will-appear-in-call-of-duty-infinite-warfare/ ....I don't even.
gaggle64 Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 I mean he had a spare weekend and it's no stranger than Conor McGregor being there. Maybe they'll kiss.
S.C.G Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 So... I got beta codes for the Xbox One version, they gave me five codes to share with friends as well (now four as I've already given one away) but if anyone wants a code then just give me a shout. The beta starts today in a few hours I think, I'm not too fussed but I may pop on over the weekend, oh and it's 19.33GB to download. :p
S.C.G Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 (edited) Yeah but this is on the Xbox One where it's the opening weekend for it so I'm guessing the keys apply in this instance? It's a silly situation due to this exclusivity deal going on, I know I guess I could just download it on my PS4 now but, I kind of want to keep the COD games on the Xbox One as it seems to be my default console for shooters for some reason. So if anyone wants a key to play the Xbox One version, just ask... out of curiosity I checked online and people are actually selling them for a couple of pounds per code which seems a bit daft, I'm happy to just give them away anyway.

drahkon Posted October 21, 2016 Author Posted October 21, 2016 My mate and I keep getting better at the standard playlist but we still can't wait to get back to the hardcore playlist in the full game Really loving some of the guns. That SMG which has an alternative "assault mode" and the assault rifle with the "Akimbo machine pistol mode"...awesome. : peace: Will be interesting to see whether we'll spend more time with IW or MWR.
S.C.G Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 I managed to play this for a whole 45 mins on the Xbox One... ...at which point it crashed. :p Fun though for what it's worth, I even got a few kills, perhaps I'm not that bad at COD afterall though I could never play it seriously. Kind of looking forward to the game now, though I have other titles to play so I don't know how often I'll actually play it for.
drahkon Posted October 31, 2016 Author Posted October 31, 2016 Bought the Legacy Pro Edition today. : peace: Downloading everything now. Can't wait. I'll be at a birthday party Friday night, though...damn real life
drahkon Posted November 4, 2016 Author Posted November 4, 2016 Played two Hardcore Team Deathmatches last night and it's awesome Sitting at work just now and can't wait to get back home to play IW and MWR. : peace:
drahkon Posted November 5, 2016 Author Posted November 5, 2016 Played the first two SP missions and they were spectacular. :awesome: The multiplayer is incredible, too. Money well spent.
martinist Posted November 5, 2016 Posted November 5, 2016 So I boght this game around 12pm ish. Brought it home and it gave me a day one updade that took about 3 hours which was about 8ish Gb. Now it's giving me an install screen when I select the campaign. I bought this game hours ago and I still can't play the damn thing. I swear if it gives me another install screen when I select multiplayer I will lose my shit.
S.C.G Posted November 6, 2016 Posted November 6, 2016 For me the main game installed with no problems (Xbox One version) but the Modern Warfare Remastered install is taking a while, I'm going to just leave the console on and hope its installed sometime today. Currently at 25% but who knows, it might be quicker now. The main game isn't bad, only played the first mission or so though, I usually play on the hardest difficulty but after that joke of a timed section that was at the end of the intro mission I just decided to play it on the second one instead.
drahkon Posted November 6, 2016 Author Posted November 6, 2016 Played Zombies in Spaceland a couple of minutes. I had (still have) no idea what the goal is...It's fun but I'd love to know what you have to do Made some progress with the IW campaign. Played a mission that started in an asteroid field which you had to manoeuvre through (not in a space ship!) to reach a freighter and steal a ship. It was pretty cool and stealthy Once at the freighter it turned into a full on attack with gunfights and after I'd boarded the target ship a space battle commenced.What a ride : peace:
drahkon Posted November 7, 2016 Author Posted November 7, 2016 There are only two things that annoy me so far: 1) the lack of Hardcore game modes...there are only 4 modes available in Hardcore. 2) some challenges are basically impossible in Hardcore (like heal yourself with a certain passive trait and kill enemies once fully healed; can't do that in Hardcore as you don't regenerate health) - while it's not that big of a deal as those challenges give you XP which can be earned in a myriad of other ways, but it still bugs me
drahkon Posted November 7, 2016 Author Posted November 7, 2016 Finished a couple more side missions and made my way through another main mission. I'm having so much fun with the campaign. Titanfall 2's is supposed to be even better...can't wait to give that one a go when it drops in price Played the multiplayer a lot yesterday. Managed to reach level 48. Loving it. : peace: I'm neglecting MWR, though.
drahkon Posted November 8, 2016 Author Posted November 8, 2016 48 already? lol. I thought 17 was high :p Double XP weekend :p Had a lot of time last Sunday.
Babooo Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 So I just started playing this game today and I must say I'm very impressed with the SP campaign mode. Absolutely brilliant opening few missions. The graphics are absolutely incredible and the facial expressions/voice acting is up there with the best I've seen (who needs a PS4 Pro - PAH). While graphics are good, the gameplay feels super tight. Just the feel of the guns and the sound...everything just feels good you know. Runs like a dream too. Seamless integration between ground and air combat which also helps mix things up a bit. All in all, very pleasantly surprised. Haven't taken to a COD game this much since Advanced Warfare. Bravo!
Hero-of-Time Posted November 24, 2016 Posted November 24, 2016 This will be £23.99 at Sainsbury's tomorrow on both the PS4 and One. Very tempting....
drahkon Posted November 24, 2016 Author Posted November 24, 2016 This will be £23.99 at Sainsbury's tomorrow on both the PS4 and One. Very tempting.... If you won't play the multiplayer...not sure if it's really worth it. The campaign, while great, is quite short and for the Platinum you need to play the Zombie mode (not tried it, yet. It's supposed to be doable solo but there is some luck involved) If it comes with the Modern Warfare Remaster, you should definitely get it, though. Both campaigns for that price is a steal

Both campaigns for that price is a steal It's just the standard edition of the game. If I do decide to buy it I will be doing so just for the single player campaign and possibly the Zombie mode ( love that thing ). Still, the game has bombed in price pretty fast and with FFXV just around the corner I may just hold on for a bit.
drahkon Posted November 24, 2016 Author Posted November 24, 2016 Still, the game has bombed in price pretty fast and with FFXV just around the corner I may just hold on for a bit. Yeah, none of the 3 big FPS have done really well. Pretty sure you'll find similar offers throughout the next months. I'd say: Don't go for it because FFXV! Have to say: I enjoy the multiplayer a lot. Didn't find the time to play much in recent weeks (especially since my mate also doesn't have a lot of free time right now) but I can't wait to really get into it right before the holidays. And with Kill Confirmed now available for Hardcore in MWR I'll try to play this more. It's not a campfest as Team Deathmatch is. Much more enjoyable

Much more enjoyable That's the mode with the dog tags, right? I loved that mode on previous CoDs. It stopped everyone from just camping and they had to get out and about to pick the things up. Easily my favourite mode.

It stopped everyone from just camping and they had to get out and about to pick the things up. Easily my favourite mode. Yeah, it is. In Infinite Warfare, camping in Team Deathmatch is not that big a deal. The movement system makes most of the players utilize it. In Modern Warfare, though...holy smokes. 95% of the people I've seen in Team Deathmatch camp all the fucking time. It made me stop playing the multiplayer after a couple of hours... Played two KC matches yesterday and it's much more bearable. Will definitely spend more time with it now.
Hero-of-Time Posted November 25, 2016 Posted November 25, 2016 I didn't end up buying the game, despite it being very cheap. I did snap up 2 copies for my nephews for Christmas, though.
