Gah first issue

Sign up to a activision to play.

Read the email terms and conditions, interesting pixel tracking clause

Now just into the beautiful campaign, sorry we've lost connection to the Activision servers, would you like to continue and lose any unlocks or stop?

I'd like to not have to be forced to sign up and require a stty server to be available to maintain progress in the purposefully played offline mode

I'm really struggling with this-,very occasionally playing.

It's been downloading for 25 hours and it still,says 65% complete.

Can play on the local game only, but both the campaign and multi both say only after full installation.- except on the home screen it says it's all downloaded.

As I said, rarely play, do you have to have xbox live to play the campaign or is this just the future of gaming now where you spend days updating before you can play?

I had this, this morning, I did a bit of Googling and it says to restart the X-box, disconnect from wifi and reconnect, I did this and it worked.

Downloaded yesterday (1gb connection helps!) and it’s great, the graphics are great although it slows down at times, not sure why. The London part is sobering at times.

Is there going to be a team death match?
Found it!

I forgot how hard it is when you don't know the maps etc

Still downloading but managed to play boot camp for a few rounds.
Very impressed so far, looking forward to a proper game

Great so far. Sounds, weapons, gameplay are good. Only played a map or two.

Played for an hour or two yesterday. You really do have to slow your game play down. If you play a rushing style there are so many places you can be killed from you'll just get killed time and again. It's a shame as i prefer a rushing style and, for me, that's what CoD should be. I was getting some random results too. I played a few games with a roughly level KDR, then started failing miserably, then out of the blue I went on a 15 kill streak that i was still on when the game ended, picking up a chopper gunner along the way. Finished the match 25:2. Won't be doing that again in a hurry. Wish i knew what i'd done in that game that made it so successful!

I have been playing this for a few hours - glad the game has gone back to it's roots - none of the futuristic exosuit garbage like the previous games.

Is quick scoping still a thing?

I've seen videos of quickscopers but haven't come across it during play.

I didn't do too well last night after it downloaded (4hrs irked). I think it'll take a few hours to get used to the maps and controls after so long on BF1.

This morning, though, I've only been playing on realism mode and loving it. Doing a lot better as no one really rushes.

Minimap and UAVs make it a lot harder

I miss the mini map! Does it come in at a certain level?

It's there from the start on normal modes

In realism you have no HUD at all

Interesting. Battlefield chased CoD and you lost hardcore and strategy modes and ended up with spray and pray. Now it seems CoD has shifted towards BF3

If you have cross play turned on, can you filter it so you only play with Xbox and PS? I don't want to play against mouse and keyboard.

It's done automatically to try and avoid that.

Yes. But I read that there was filters so you only play with other controller players if you want to, but don't know if you can while having cross play enabled. It's what ruined Fortnite for me on Xbox, being forced to play with pc players.

So turn it off!!

It's never MANDATORY to have Cross Play enabled.

But the point is I want to play with PS friends? Maybe I should have stated that was the reason I asked.

I want to play with PS friends but I don't want to play with PC players, so can you play with just one or do you have to play with both?
