Ah, I'll wait until the tier 1 update is out then. Can't be doing with the bullet sponge of core.

Core certainly isn't bullet sponge

Compared to the 1 or 2 shots it takes in HC it is. Gotten too used to that over the years to play core.
Plus I like the slower more tactical pace HC seems to have.

I don't think it's coming to Gamepass for a while if reports are to he believed. Just had a bit more of a look into this, now that it is actually out and seems like that wait is very long. See that Sony appear to have some exclusive agreement that might make it difficult to go Game Pass. That agreement seems to be lasting until 2025-26. I thought you meant months! Maybe I will pick it up, but I'll probably wait until Christmas in the hope that there will be some kind of discount. |

Where did you get it for £54 on Xbox? My local Tesco has it for £58 today on a display stand on the way in. Xbox and PS. Very nearly went into the trolley as an impulse buy but then I had word with myself, the rule that if I'm not going to play something immediately this weekend then wait. |

Played an hour of multiplayer from midnight like the sad b*stars I am. It feels like there have been some minor changes from the beta. It feels really great, the movement is very smooth. The guns are great. There's a lot to plug away at as there are 'families' to unlock from one platform, for example I think the M4 turns into about five distinct weapons. A map around a castle/fort stood out so far. It's really colourful and good looking. The 141 operators are locked to vault edition. Played basic 6v6 on TDM, Kill Confirmed, Hardpoint and Domination. I'll probably continue in that vein tonight but will try some of the larger modes over the weekend. Some of those involve bots and vehicles and random care drops. Similar to yourself, played last night until about 1.30 and had a few games today. Love the movement of this and so far am happy to level up my M4 and secondary. I like what they have done with the weapon progression. I can see myself putting a lot of time into the mastery side of things which wouldn't normally be my cup of tea. Played the same modes as you too and will hold off on the likes of SnD until I level up a decent ranged weapon. This could end up being a massive time sink for me. |

How's the amount of guns they've got in at launch? The last CoD was pretty stingy with the launch line up.

Decent number but they are confusing to unlock.

This positive though is that when you unlock a gun, most of the attachments you have gained for weapons in the tree are available from the get go.

Yeah the last two posts are right. So for example, you'll see all currently available weapons in create a class. Some will be locked to a level but some will say 'unlock at M4 level 19' for example.
Then your M4 might show an upcoming attachment that you have to level an AK-47 to get to add to the confusion.
I reckon it's to combat the 'meta' thing of everybody using the same setup.
It does feel nerdy talking about this in such detail.

Having to use a battle rifle to almost max level to get an assault rifle is cruel.

Knowing what I know now, I would've waited. Core just feels like a joke emptying half a clip into someone. I also forget how much goes on the HUD. Overload |

I'm finding the short trigger pull on the Xbox Elite pad helps with these weapons that need to be used semi auto. The weapon grind seems a lot tougher on this after having another big session tonight. Still not got a single optic for the P90 I started with. |

Fortunately it doesn't really need an optic too much.
I can't remember which br it was, I just figure it will be easier in hardcore as it's a one hit kill there.
I've got the M4 maxed out now but I'm not it's biggest fan, it feels like a crap shoot at long range as to who wins. I've started levelling the Kastov 762 now and it feels like the mw amax which I used loads in warzone so I might get stuck into that. Even with no attachments it feels nice to use.
Hardcore will be 16th November

Preservation of retro games is really hard work. Modern games (particularly in their released state) are going to be nigh on impossible. |

First impressions, it's the style and "weight" of COD that I like. I am gutted hardcore isn't on there from the get-go as it was my preferred mode. However, core and the TTK isn't that bad. Gives me time to study the maps. That border patrol one is the Shipment of this game, definitely.

Hardpoint is THE mode for getting your weapons levelled IMO. It's an absolute meat grinder! The castle map is awesome for this.

Has everybody spotted the firing range? When you are in the section to build loadouts, hold Y or whatever your equivalent is.
Also, hold left on the D-pad to see some very cool, 'Black' style gun-porn weapon inspections.

Invasion is the way forward for that, go to a quiet bit of the map and kill the AI. Leave when they start getting armour and you can fully level a weapon in an hour or so. It's really handy for doing weapons you don't like using but need to in order to unlock a tree. Edit ignore my post they just nerfed it. |

Had a few goes on MP this evening and surprised how easily I fell back into it. Plays well. Really enjoyed mounting my gun and picking people off round corners.
The border map came up in a domination match and it suits it quite well. Could be hard going if you are a run and gunner but slow it down and it’s a nice feeling capturing point b as you slowly move up through the cars.

I haven't played CoD MP in years. My last serious effort was the multiplayer only pseudo shitshow that was Black Ops 4, and even then I bailed on that early. I gave Warzone a go (like literally two hours) when the new conslols launched. That's about it. Jumped into MW2's online this morning, and three hours disappeared. There's a mode that feels almost like a Battlefield game, and I had an absolute blast. Picked a sniper load out, but probably got more kills with the machine pistol when on the ground - spawning into choppers and picking people off will never get old. Once I'd muted the morons in my squad it was very enjoyable. Obviously I'll get creamed if I get into any of the "proper" modes, and the progression system triggers the rage in my old man brain, but I think I might actually dump some time into this. If anyone fancies doing the co-op I'd be up for a few sessions. Always enjoyed that mode back in the day. I'm Xbox, so that or whatever cross plays with that, I guess. Be advised that you'll have to do the heavy lifting, I'm shite.  |

How is mp in this one?
I played the last one and hated it. That stupid blitz mode was no fun but everything was designed to force it on you. Is this more traditional or did they double down?

I absolutely loved the mp on vanguard, and I see so many people slagging it off? Maybe my enjoyment was bumped up due to not playing a cod in years, and/or being quite decent at it.
I am enjoying the mp on this so far. I am a boring bastard though who only ever plays TDM and the occasional round of DOM.
