I never realised the holger required a challenge to unlock as I always just seemed to have it. I tried a few matches to unlock the Bruen on shipment (3 kills near smoke in 15 matches) but it didn't go so well.

The oden is good for an upper body shot on hardcore but I don't particularly like it, I find it hard to control.
I think it unlocked without a challenge earlier on, maybe in season 1 or 2. Couple of my friends got it without the challenge.

The Bruen one I found ok on shipment, I don’t know when you tried it but there was a patch a little while back that made the ‘near smoke’ challenges more forgiving.

I’ve been taking a sniper into Warzone recently. Gunna take a bit of work, I’m not terrible but not great.

Where do people find the quietest areas to land?

Even when I think no one will land somewhere, a few teams have the same idea. After 3 or 4 games of landing with others I just want to land somewhere I/we can get a gun and survive longer than 20 seconds then work our way in. Weirdly, I've landed at Superstore many times and no one has gone there.

I like playing Plunder and as much as shooting folk up, I like seeing how many crates and contracts I can do rather than just in it for a fight.

I tend to look at the trajectory of the aircraft and decide from there which of my preferred hunting grounds are maybe furthest from the flight path and head there to accumulate a few hundred thousand $ before working my way into the battle.

Speaking of unfortunate sniping victims...

This is actually my record distance up to now.



Managed to capture this clip but normally don't have much luck with the built in recording capability. Choose 1 min and it captures about 11 seconds. Very frustrating.
I'd be raging if that was me shot ....

Plunder drop in I tend to go for the stadium, plenty of boxes dotted round there, but I always float after jumping to watch the trails to see who's dropping where, then I can change my mind if needed.

It really down to the route of the plane firstly. You want to go 'away' from the route of course to land in quietest places, but i tend to look at landing in 'non-named' areas. So TV Station, Superstore, Farmland etc, all the named places i try to avoid and i try to land close to those places as there's so many decent buildings nearby the main ones, the inbetweeners if you will.

As above really. I find North of military / east of the dam or south of promenade aren't too busy. I tend to drop outside of the circle and work my way in.


Having a lightweight class for plunder with kali sticks/knife is great for looting.

One game I found myself running round the stadium in overtime and it hadn't been touched so will try there again.

There is no logic to it.

My team seem to do better when we land in the circle, I think a lot of teams go outside.

I turn off cross platform unless I'm on Warfare. When I see a lobby of PC icons I just leave.

29 out of 30 warfare games I die within minutes. If you have a organised team you can clean up, as a casual gamer is is very hard. I just play for fun anyway.

The ghost recon game is being beta tested so will give that a go.

I really don't find Warzone that difficult.

Granted i've only had a couple of wins in three days of play but on solo's I usually end up top 25.

Land somewhere quietish, work your way into the circle as it closes.


I did have a game with a hacker in the other day - he finished on 40 something kills. I watched after he killed me and then again straight from the gulag. it was ridiculous. instant headshots from x00 metres away. They have to fix these sort of issues.

I found a nice quietish drop on the edge of the map its like a half built house/construction site. only 4-5 buildings around. I was playing solos and a few people landed nearby. I managed to get a decent loadout and hearbeat sensor early on and finished 3rd with 12 kills. However every day before this playing duos my friend and i didnt even make top 10

Cheers Josh, think I know where you mean.

This game appears to be getting more and more campy as time passes. Teams of 4 sat at the bottom of building all looking at the entrance etc, even more so on solos.Bit of a joy killer coming across these plonkers but that aspect will always be on CoD I guess.

By far my fav part is the Gun Fight, particularly in private matches with 8+ people in in the lobby. Could do that all night, always a good laugh.

As for hackers I've not come across that many, maybe a handful as far as I'm aware. Unfortunate being on Xbox we can't turn off PC players on Warzone, not sure why Playstation players get that luxury.

Played Duos yesterday and did ok, I haven't played that too much. Me and my friend wanted to play more aggressively so we went after people with most wanted contracts, was quite good.

Also we dropped into Promenade West which was basically the middle of the circle and had the place to our selves, moved around pretty easily hunting people down and were well placed for the final circle.

I've also fitted the extremedawn button kit to my PS4 controller and once I am more used to it I think it will make a big difference.

Died in a game of Warzone, went to the bathroom, thought i'd stay in-game incase i get bought back but the circle was getting smaller and smaller. Was spectating and the two other members brought it home. Wa-hey!

Or so i thought... turns out i was spectating some random team for 5 mins who won.

I get really annoyed with the trios and quad campers, as you say 3 people looking at a door waiting for you. i find duos isnt as bad as its generally a pair of mates playing tactically.

Gun Fight is pretty awesome havent played for a few months since warzone it definately hones your skills might have to play tonight

Win two matches of gun fight is one of the ribbon challenges this season and I found it quite tricky.

Had some fun games of quads yesterday, best we did was second but we played quite aggressively trying to up our game a bit.
