Did anyone get spammed with friend request while playing COD over the lat two days? I had to turn off the settings on the PS4 but I still get requests via the APP. It's annoying.

I picked this up at Best Buy yesterday. The cashier tried to talk me out of getting it. I've never had that happen before.

I haven't played the last two nights, but one thing I noticed is that my PS4 experience is a lot different than on PS3. I would always get friend requests and game invites from strangers on PS3, but not on 4. Also, it seems like there are far less people interacting with mics. This also includes FAR less racists, douchebags, and 12 year olds who just learned the F word.

It's strange since the PS4 actually came with a mic. It almost feels too quiet while playing.

I picked this up last week for the PS4 and i have to admit its been a lot of fun playing the campaign. I felt that this series had lost its ways to a large extent, but its made right a lot of problems with the last few games. I still wish that they would return to a WWII scenario for possible future games in the series.

After a while of playing this....I think it may just be my new fav. Yes, I wish the maps were a bit larger (they all feel too small) but it's so much fun jumping around and tagging people in the air as well. I love that you can slam into people in the air (just push down on the stick) to get a kill (it's tough but I have done it).

The weapons are a but lacking as well BUT, once you get your skill set up you will be better with the weapon of your choice.

People have started camping in this game and they are so easy to weed out due to the size of the maps (and I think this is why they are small). I am now better at exo mode then classic mode and trying to go back to classic mode is so tough after having played exo mode for so long. What I like about this game is that the exo jumps can be used for mulitple purposes, I myslef use them primarily to escape or to quickly get into a spot I like on the map - I don't constantly jump around at all and I think people who do are making a big mistake.

Good game, already almost at level 30 and I'm a causal player. Hoping the new maps and the exo-zombies are cool too.

I started playing Hardpoint last week and that's my new favorite mode. Before that it was always Kill Confirmed. I have had so much success with HP that it's hard to wrap my brain around.

I backburnered this in favor of XBox One games, but it seems like I should really get around to playing.

The new maps look cool.

Nice cast for the exo zombies

I could never get into HP, but after ditching my favorite (Domination) in previous CoDs for KC in Blops2, I have now returned to Dom. I think it's because of how may scorestreaks I can get in one round of Dom. It's crazy.

I played some today and they have previewed the two new guns, which are variants of the stupidlaser gun that shoots beams. These shoot energy bullets. It has some kick back but is fun as all hell. I may have to retire my Bal 27 piece and continue to upgrade the Widowmaker A4.

I am all about two of the snipers and one shotgun. The Mors sniper and whatever that last sniper is are my favorite. I am only one camo shy of getting Diamond on my Mors.

For short range I love the Tac-9 - such a great shotty.

I run with the AK and SAC3. I use fast hands now that I've unlocked that perk. I'm pulling 2-3 EMP Hacks per round. Btw that hack reward is the most annoying fucking thing ever... I hope my opponents swear as much as I do when I earn that reward.

I usually cloak up and hide in a corner and wait until it goes away.

I spoke to soon about the new guns. I leveled up on those and they're not as good since there is no silencer perk. Fools can hear you and the scope/sight suck ass. The grips are cool but it's too unbalanced. I may play with it a bit more to unlock some more perks but I don't think it will be a keeper. In fact I've noticed that not too many people have been using it.

I'll be sticking with my Bal 27. I have the quick grip, silencer, and fore grip installed right now. I prestiged again, so I have to work to get the scavenger, etc.

Apparently there is a pretty significant rebalancing coming soon, but for now I'm rocking an AMR Strider with grip and rifling. That gun is almost not even fair. It's an SMG that thinks it's an AR. I'm slowly raising my kdr since getting this for Christmas, going from a .98 to 1.10 with about 25 hours of game play.

The system hack is definitely annoying, but I too just sit in a corner and wait for it to end. I run UAV with assist points, care package, and bombing run. The bombing run is a devastator in Domination, and I believe the care package is a must have for every loadout.

I noticed the COD store within the game and noticed they have some neat perks. I bought the steampunk helmet and exo suit for $2.99. I'm stylin' now.

I completed the main campaign last night and i have to admit that i really enjoyed this game and can see me replaying it more times in the future. Looking forward to the next installment.

By the way, in previous games i really enjoyed the stand alone Special Ops missions that you could do. I don't see them included in this game. Were they left out or am i missing them somewhere?

I also go with UAV (with assist points) which generally leads immediately to the Care Package and then one more kill for the System Hack. I may switch to the bombing run though. I love that you can add on bonus features to the kill streak rewards.

I agree, I think that's probably the biggest improvement with this year's game.

I played multiplayer and just prestiged. It's the first time I've ever done that in a CoD game. Usually I get to 45ish and quit.

I do love the supply drop. It helps people that suck (like me) at the game get a leg up. But (and I'm not sure if anyone else mentioned it, I didn't read the whole thread) they took all the worst things that people did in past games (jump around like idiots for example) and made it something normal. It feels great to get shot by a guy that jumps 50 feet in the air, spins, and quick scopes you.

Anyone here do the zombie mode?

I have made it through all the tiers solo and unlocked the zombie equipment. But I haven't unlocked the zombie playable character because I can't finish the very last map.

Anyone on the Xbox One interested in partying up sometime to do this last map with me? I want the zombie skin.

I'm still loving the game and my dumb ass just realized you can sell all that bullshit supply drop shit you get after matches I mean, I knew there was redeemable loot but I didn't think you could redeem it for XP - I went from a level 32 or something to 39 - fastest rank up ever

I thought I would get tired of the exo-suit after a while but I haven't - It's a convience in this type of game and I think that's why I like it so much.
