Re: Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

Except they told us there would be dedicated servers, so we shouldn't just roll over and accept it.

You're right, but they weren't specific on the platforms. They responded yesterday by saying they're coming soon. No idea on the platform. Could just be PC.

Re: Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

I hopped in the chat with y'all for a bit, but couldn't find a way to join the game.

Game was most likely full, just holla at the party leader to send you party invite and we will rejoin a match so all the OS are on one team.

Re: Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

For me, this game is to Destiny, as NFL Blitz is to Madden.

I have been so sick and fed up with the past few CoD games and their twitchy, jerky, arcade'ish feel. But I'm really liking AW for what it is. A change of pace, get in get out fast action fun. And a breath of fresh air.

I feel like this one is the most 'arcade' it's ever been, which is fine, but it's not for me. The future skin, exo, weapons, but especially maps and super fast pace are turning me off.

It's cool that you can get on like an arcade game and play for 15-20 min and get a couple of matches in, but it feels nothing like the cod4,waw,blops games where there is action, then it slows down but builds suspense and all feels very deliberate and I would feel the desire to play all damn day and think about it at work or whatever.

This is non-stop action, with strange maps that are largely forgettable and feel cramped.

I actually remember maps in detail from cod4, waw and blops (even mw2 which I wasn't a huge fan of) As an aside, I don't feel that the game has great 'graphics' either - but what I'm referring to is probably an art/design thing rather than textures and polygon counts.

anyway for me this is a 6/10 for the time being. I get it, I see why people are loving it, but it just lacks that satisfaction of cod's past for me

Yeah I was thinking about picking this up but after watching a few live streams it's WAYYYY to fast paced for my liking. Way to twitchy with everyone jumping around like crazed monkeys, lol. The fast paced action of previous COD's is what turned me off and this one is even worse..... I'll pass!

But to those who like it, have fun!

Sent from my Samsung Note 2 directly to your face!

Re: Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

Add me too, guys. I'll run some "OS" clan action with y'all. I'll play anything, but I prefer/love to run "Hardcore" modes, mainly "Kill Confirmed". I'll be on quite a bit from now through Tuesday, since I have a four-day weekend coming up plus the wife working late.

Re: Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

This game adds a new level of skill requirement. That's what I like. The time to kill in this series has been getting faster. The jumping adds something to counter the "whoever shoots first wins" argument. You can dodge out of the way. In previous games you could only try to run away or get on the ground. This game gives you a whole different skill to try and improve on.

Re: Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

At any point in just about every map, there is literally 8 different directions where someone can shoot you. 80% of my deaths are from people just luckily rounding a corner and there I am looking in one of the 8 directions for enemies thus I'm an easy kill. I guess that's just how the game is.

There are areas that are bad, but no way is it the entire map. You need to find areas that work. And for areas that don't work, get out of there.

I have been trying to avoid the middle of the map at all costs since I am terrible right now.

I've said it before and will continue. Game modes..... game modes....... game modes......The correct ones will give you a much clearer idea which direction the enemy is coming from. Several other factors also play a big role in limitings your "shot in the ***" deaths. 1) Constantly watch the map, you want to make quick notes of gun fire and jet pack noise. This will give you notes which directions to watch. 2) Utilize the parabolic microphones on the guns to open up your map sense even more. 3) Make use of the exo ping ability. It is great for spotting enemies through walls.

Lastly, don't get map tunnel vision either. There are abilities to counter all these strengths. So while utilizing these things also get to learn frequent map routes. Every online shooter will have "hot zones" which is where most the combat goes down.

Re: Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

lmao so i get in a lobby where basically the team is killing me with that RW1 pistol one shot cheese. So i equip the next game to try to give them a taste of their own medicine and i kept getting hitmarker after hitmarker... smh i got owned!

Clan Wars start November 15th (9 days away). I would like to get some sessions in with some members before then so we can get some sort of chemistry and strategy going!

Re: Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

For the clan, is it all together (PS4/Xbone) or do we have a separate one for each console? Sorry if that is a stupid question.
