Guys I'm shocked that the black ops 3 beta is actually good. Movement is a huge improvement over AW, it feels right. Map design is quality. The gore is awesome.
Time to kill is longer that AW, is perfect. I'm getting a MW2 T2K vibe.
Netcode:
I'm not noticing many BS moments online. I'll need more time with this as the majority of McDonald's wifi connections would still be downloading the game.
Has treyarch done the impossible, invigorated a dying franchise? This could be one of the best cod in years. Zombies should be awesome too, how do you guys feel about the beta?
EDIT: Day 2, so the lag begins. Game was running great yesterday, today the net-code is a complete mess. I'm guessing the servers are stressed, or all the dial-up connections are out in force. :)☺😄
EDIT: I hear a lot of xbox players are having problems with freezing, gun camo not working. Possible fix - Try deleting the game, reinstalling as this has helped other players. If that doesn't work use a second profile.
EDIT 2: Here guys check out the new Zombies trailer, the reason why last gen campaign was ditched explained by a dev in link below...

beta is badass

Edited by GeneralPoe: 8/20/2015 8:50:26 PMI think the graphics are meh; they don't seem like next gen graphics. I think there is too much going on in the maps. Lag is is so bad right now. Matchmaking was having huge issues last night. I have troubles seeing people first; I feel my guns take forever to kill someone yet i die to a couple to the body. No one aims for the head ever. Body shots are just as effective. I haven't played a CoD since Black Ops 2 and I don't like the movement to the game; I don't care for the jet packs and wall running. I'm always getting killed from behind. I'm just not good at the game and probably won't be buying unless zombies is too good to pass up.

That's good you enjoy it... I had high hopes b/c it was trey arch but I have been disappointed so far. Hardly any customization and everyone looks the same and it feels too much like AW which I didn't like. I feel it's too futuristic. I'm hoping they eventually go back in time and use real weapons
-
A lot of people praising cod??? To get in the beta you need to preorder game anyways right? Unless I'm wrong on that I feel liked you guys are fans and buy cod every year anyways. Probably junk like normal.....
-
Treyarch has always been the best cod developer

>Halo 5 adds thruster packs "Oh my god it's just like titanfall" >CoD rips the entire parkour system from Titanfall and puts it in their game "How ingenuitive and refreshing, this is truly the next best CoD" GG gaming community, GG

I'm guessing the new lag is because the beta is now free for everyone on ps4
-
People like this? It's literally Destiny with a faster TTK. Played to lvl 28 because I felt the game deserved a fair shot, but I have no intention of booting up the beta again, let alone going out and buying the actual game.
-
I'm only curious about zombies tbh
-
Really enjoying it so far
-
Ttk is to fast. There lag in every match. The shoot first die first is still in. They fix nothing. Head glitching is back big time lol
-
answer to title [spoiler]no[/spoiler]

I'm in a love hate thing with it. i've had a few bs moments so far like i shoot them and they kill me before my first bullet even touches them, they out gun me with a pistol (like seriously wtf?!?!?! faster trigger fingers ever). oh and the slide only works half the time unless you hold it down (for a few seconds which can be hard at times). oh and the melee attacks aren't 1 shoting like they always have it takes more then 1 but i don't know how many because i get 1 in then i die every time. but i definitely feel it mostly saved the series (the prestige edition sucked so bad what happened to a remote control something like the last 2).
-
No they have literally copied titanfall and Destiny and merged it into a COD format

Edited by Bluefoxx3: 8/20/2015 7:12:10 AMTreyarch did the impossible when they made World At War. Call of Duty nowadays has become nothing more than a twitch-styled shooter. They're better games coming out worth the $60. I'm more interested in the single player as that's where CoD's strength has always been with a weak multiplayer since MW3. Battlefield's strength though is in its multiplayer with a weak single player.

You cant enjoy it unless you are good at it. Ali-A should say that.
-
Yeah they impossibly failed
-
As someone who has hated cod since bo2, I'm really impressed. Can't get online at the moment. Matchmaking issues. But that's too b expected in a beta
-
There should be a customizable specialist, it can never have the clothes of the other specialists, but can have any of their abilities or weapons. How does that sound?
-
Best cod since bops 2
-
I have 18 hours until my beta downloads :(
-
I'm honestly really enjoying it. SMG's and AR's are still the best weapon class out there, unless you pull a Destiny and shotgun slide everywhere (which is effective but [i]oh so dirty[/i]) I think Treyarch revitalized it. This game feels really polished. The movement system is fluid and combat-oriented. The gun customization is unparalleled in terms of old CoD's and many other first person shooters as well. It just feels so good to hit the boost jumps and slide when you land, like they tuned the controller vibrations and button presses so well. Helpful tip; The lighter you press the jump button, the less boost it consumes, but you still travel the same height. Keep that in mind.
-
Yeah it would be nice to actually play if the beta didn't take 3 years to download!!! I've been waiting all bloody day!
-
Haven't really played since mw3 but the movement and traversal system makes it feel like a completely new game! This may be the time I return to cod.

No. I'm still playing a quake engine game.
