Yep yep yep, its just a giant ‘wtf were they doing’ thing right now. LMG/SMG/ARs even SRs seem all pretty legit right now. I didn’t notice any type outdoing anohter type, but the shotguns are really secondaries right now. The secondaries all seem kinda piss poor right now, but I havne’t seen any leveled up though. I just don’t like the animation for swapping in the machine pistol tier 1 - takes too long.

I posted my first impressions on YouTube. If anyone is interested here’s the link.

I used to like Woodys Gamertag but he has been really pretentious lately. Dude filmed everyday he was on vacation with his family and showed it to everyone.

I’m in the same boat. With the majority of what are the bigger COD YouTube players I used to like their content, but sometimes I just take a step back and think “Wow”. I want to see gameplay, I want to hear your thoughts (or tips), I don’t want to see your day to day life.

And yeah Woody quit his job to make videos, he had a really good job to. Dumbest shit fucking ever.

Meh. That’s just the rhythm, I guess. After so long into a game’s lifecycle, you’ve exhausted all the game knowledge there is. So you move on to other stuff. You’ll see this pattern with just about every commentator out there. It’s also why commentators focused almost exclusively on tips/gameplay (like Tmartn) put out videos much less frequently toward the end of a game.

Also, on Woody from what I heard, it’s not a real quit. He can technically go back to that job anytime he wants.

Still, I was looking at the original video where he suggested doing that like :confused: He was in a high software position for a Fortune 500 company. If you’re even thinking about quitting that for youtube, you’re either crazy, or that job is REALLY boring. As someone who wants to develop software at some point in the future, I’m really hoping it’s the first.

or he has made enough money to actually do something that he loves?

I’d much rather get paid 30k and do something that I love than get paid 6 figures to hate my life/job. Money doesn’t make you happy, it just makes life easier.

truth and one of the reasons I stopped programming. Its mindnumbing after awhile says the person whos on SRK and FB all day because the alterantive is doing work all day in spreadsheets and databases.

Yeah, I’d rather do something I love too, but he has a family to look after. Also, from what I heard from him, the job wasn’t exactly bad like that. Regardless of “passion”, family comes first. Abandoning a high paying job on the off chance you’ll be able to go “pro” making youtube videos is foolish.

If I didnt have bills to pay and expensive hobbies… i wouldnt work, ever. This is why I play the lottery. This is also why i need to get off my lazy ass and create a business, make it big, sell to Google…

Anyway, how is the game? I was considering getting it just to play with you guys, but the game is probably trash.

IMO its between BO and MW2…MW2 minus bullshit (but fun bullshit admittedly) with BO styled stages…and weaksauce shotguns.

I want to see a leveld up UMP…get rid of that kick and it should be one of the most awesome things ever (>_<)

Anyone here order from newegg? They were quick to charge my credit card, but no word on if they shipped it yet.

The more that I played the more I like this game. It is great that so many people are playing the games but getting a lobby together is exhausting.

You can pass lead now awesome.

I odn’t like hte menu system at ALL, but they did add some nice QoL features here and there.

  • :bluu:

What else did they add besides Copy Class?

Seems everyone is agreement about the number of lines of sight you can get killed from. Hopefully the game is easy enough for them to update they can close off some routes make the game less of a cluster fuck.

Also I really miss the blops damage levels, you could get shot and run for cover, in this everything feels like hardcore (which was how MW2 was to be fair).

Edit: yeh Woody has 6 months to see how it goes, which is pretty cool.

This game is MW2 without the frustrating random bullshit, and some fairly significant gameplay tweaks (i.e. new kill-streak system). Some may think that to be a bad thing, but I like it. Constant air support IS annoying though and you still get the stinger mad late -_-

I give this game at least a few weeks before people whine about it not being like MW2 and go back to that shitfest(again).

I personally miss OMA and noob tubes.

oh toobs are still there. Not as prevalent yet, but I got killed by them several times last nyte.

I’m fine for hte most part with the engine, I’d like to play on it some more, but shotguns are loltastic, and the map designs just are a bit too much, which is kinda weird seing as they were talking about making the maps simpler. It looks harder to camp from what I’ve seen. Rolling SRK is again what will make the game, but the base is solid.

How long till user selected playlists get implemented. I want my pure barebones back asap :sad:
