Think I’ve had it with wz2. I didn’t buy the multiplayer game, so ranking up a load out is limited to warzone games, and thus very very very slow.

I get insta-beamed by people I can’t even see. Can barely land a shot, let alone get a kill.

Time to hang up my m4 i reckon.
Iv moved to within a foot of the TV and suddenly I can spot these people beaming me. I still die, but at least I spot them now.

Why do people join quads etc to just run off by themselves? I don't get it. Many also don't speak, but I don't mind that if they ping and stay together. They don't though.
I'm just not really having this problem since switching to the new map... But one thing I have done is pushed my FOV right up to the max. Took a day or so to get used to it but now I can see a hell of a lot more going on. This is on PS5, assume the option is there on other consoles. This is one of the things that gave PC players an edge for so many years.
Yea iv done the same. Think there's some other settings you've meant to change, but iv not got around to it. Might give it a bash this afternoon. Got 5 hours off... split shifts are the worst ever.

yeah single player in dmz is basically impossible you cant do any of the missions where helicopters come after you as you cant drive and shoot, you cant revive in SP unless you fine an uber rare self revive kit

yet i cant play in a team as i dont have a headset and honestly id rather not
You can get a revive pistol as well and have multiples of each. Usually 7.5k at the buy station and you keep one on you if you ex-fil successfully.

The cargo missions are pretty easy solo, although less so in the boat. They shoot ahead of you so when they stop shooting drive at a slight angle, then when the bullets appear infront of you, go back to the correct course.

The main problem solo is when a team pops up near you and you cant get away, but if you have a way to self revive and plates, then you can give it a go.

When possible, get an LTV as the armour and large rear plate helps you alot to not get shot.
I meant to say, for example one mission is 6 operator kills in the city at the top, so plenty of people are camping the ex-fil to get those.

Some of the later missions are crazy, 30 operator kills with a certain shotgun and barrel, 35 headshots with a suppressed marksman rifle, within 3 meters at the observatory, where nearly everyone is armoured and needs 2 shots. Not easy at all.

I sit about 20ft from my tv, changing the fov makes players in the distance invisible.

Getting my eyes tested wouldn’t be a bad idea either.

I’m quite enjoying MW2 Team DM, some annoying bugs though which are not being patched quickly enough imo, the blueprint secondary guns not working is a right pita.

yea, I think I upped my FOV, but in hindsight I think maybe that makes everything else too small - I think I'm going to have to tit around with FOV and sensitivity setting too maybe.

There’s a lot that can be done to improve visuals if you are on the newer gen consoles. As much as I hate to admit it at 35+ I’m on TikTok and learnt what colour filters to use along with colour options for way markers and other alerts.

I am loving Christmas Shipment.

Goal over the holidays is to get max level on all guns then start doing camos for Orion.

I’m already at plat for my ARs but with gun levelling being as important as the challenges shipment has meant I can level a gun in 4 to 5 games.

I don't sit as far away from my TV as you but I was thinking the same about my eye site. I went to the opticians (not because of this game) as I hadn't had an eye test in a while. Turns out my eyes are fine and I don't need glasses, I still cant see the enemy though at distance. frown

When I play with friends and they are dead watching me on Warzone they shout 'he is there' I cant see them. Maybe it is my TV picture set up.

I'm telling you, roll your chair up to within cms and suddenly you spot them. Imo you get a better view close up on a nice 32inch 4k pc monitor than your TV. However she's stole mine to work from home so I'm stuck sniffing the 65inch TV screen so see enemies.

Actually came on this thread to ask about those elite controllers etc.

Does having paddles on the back help? I could drop shot and jump around all while shooting. Seems like it could give me an advantage. Others who do it to me always win the fight. Don't want to drop that much if its just a gimmick though.

Yes they make a massive difference, I don’t set the paddles for jumping but it helps keep your hand on the controller.

Has anyone managed to get the M13B? If so do they fancy doing the drop thing.

Only played DMZ a couple of times, got wiped out after about 10 minutes, would love to have a go with a few off here.

Going through all the guns at the moment to level up and gold camo, done assaults (except m13), SMGs & LMGs, half way through marksmans, haven't even started on shotguns and pistols.

It's the Field Of View (FOV).

Wait, are you broadspeed or broadspeed1?

And that is a bloody good question my original account was broadspeed but according to Activision my linked account is Broadspeed1

Sorry didn't realise earlier when you pinged a request over.

What's your GT ? Are you on PS?

I wondered if it was 1 as we ave 8 mutual friends.

I'm on now if you want to send me a friend request, it won't let me send you one again.

I've sent you a message on PSN as well.

I’ve finished the campaign. Great game and the thing is stunning. I was begrudging the price but it’s very well done.

The sound with good headphones is spot on as well and gives you 360 degree audio to help you hide from the baddies.

I’m not a fan of crafting though, it’s annoying but in this game I found it helpful, especially for the final missions.

Disappointed that there wasn’t as much air combat though, as always the C130(?) is brilliant fun but would have liked more.

I’ve got everything on east though and I still found it a challenge lol. My accuracy is shocking. I think I’ll play through it again and see what I could do better.

I have yet to venture online, I just find it infuriating when I’m killed half a second into a match!!

I’m on PS5, tag is daviegla. Would enjoy joining a few of you and get some help with guns?

No problem, the AI can be a bit over the top in the game at the moment.

I'm up to 7 solo wins in WZ2. Definitely easier than Warzone 1.

The AI are a touch too accurate and powerful in Warzone IMHO.. If normal "COD" then try Invasion mode, slower pace...
