I picked up £300k+ from a guy I killed - I had no idea you could carry that much. I only play Battle Royale if I'm with mates, or Plunder if I'm alone. I find regular Modern Warfare is just too serious nowadays.

Yeah, I crap myself and run for a vendor when I get the 'you are marked as a top earner' warning. The fkers still keep chasing you once you've popped a balloon though.

Find or buy a turret gun, then get to one of the apartment buildings with the roof entry. Go to the top floor and set up the gun so you can shoot the folks coming up the stairs in the back, and the people coming down the ladder from the roof are helpless on the ladder. A couple of proxi mines on the stairs as a warning and you're laughing.

Another 32 GB (X Box) update this morning! Wish they would warn you about these.

Fancied a quick hour before work, but greeted with the 'not ready' screen.

Thanks for the heads up!



@feef: Headsets are quite handy for directional cues compared to a TV. It can be a bit hit and miss as it's not so directional if someone is above you or below you, but the difference it makes on something like Free For all is marked as it's quite a quiet game and not full of explosions and air traffic.

You can hear people coming a mile off and just pre-aim as they come hoofing round the corner and they can't figure out how you knew they were there. It's like you've turned all the players into heffalumps with hobnail boots on. I don't play free for all now as it's a duckshoot now. And the dullest game type.

Can't use them in the online Warzone Rumble I don't think?

The kill streak ones, they are common loot or available at vendors. Never used to pick them up but I do know. Not much better than an LMG for taking the attack choppers down though.

Edit - the Shield Turret gun.

21.8 GB update ..... that's me not playing before night shift


Never known a game have so frequently massive updates like this.

[anonymous-user]

30gb plus multiplayer 6gb so 36gb plus.

Anyone else having server issues with the download? Been at it for about 3 hours and 24GB to go. Speedtest.net shows I have a healthy 90MB/s at my disposal but it's downloading at a maximum of about 200 KB/s. At this rate it will take all week!

Edit to add. Just restarted my machine and now up to the heady heights of 4MB/s so some improvement.

No issue with the download but disappointed that they’ve pulled the rumble. I enjoyed those.

Am I missing something... I have a headset but rarely use it unless I'm playing with folk i know. How do the headphones help?

Yes you are missing something! Play with headphones and you can hear so much more. Direction of gunfire, footsteps doors opening and if course, the boxes.

I can't play without headphones

Yup. Been playing with the headset the last couple of days. Especially useful in plunders, listening for the buzzing and purring of the crates.

Played some Shipment today. Made some progress on the ribbons think I’ll be able to get the full board again this season - does anyone else do this? I think they’re good challenges.

4 (or 5) games into getting the Kali sticks, realised after I should have had a second load out to get the new sniper instead of switching to a shot gun load out. Very easy to do on shipment.

how many here have the full paid-for version, and how many are using the free, online only Warzone version on Playstation?

full paid, bought it the day it dropped. My issue is i cannot play story based games anymore (limited time, family etc) so i need a pick up and play game, then drop, then pick up and play.

CoD fits that mould quite nicely, the days of Metal Gear, GTA or Asassins' Creed are long gone for me

I actually haven't even completed the single campaign mode, just no time for it.

Plunder was my go to when Warzone dropped as I was on my own most the time. Now when I go on it, games last 8 mins before a team hits 1 mil. Would be much better if it was a 2mil target.

Enjoying getting a variety of game modes in now rather than the whole session just on BR

I've noticed that as well as team members dropping out. Also the one shot kill kar is being used en masse.

And so many camper snipers.

The Kar is probably being used by people trying to unlock the new sniper - requires quickscope kills with either a marksman or sniper rifle. I managed to do it in the 15 separate matches it requires, although used the Mk2 myself

Yup plunder is ruined. Far too easy for a team to sweat up to a million in no time. No fun
