First off, I never experienced lag that affected me...if u can't move before u get shot then u must suck balls, I am actually surprised I have not spawned next to an enemy yet...Game will have a nice patch coming soon to clean out the bugs as treyarc always comes thru...one thing, xbone is basically taking(unlike 360) all dl speeds so basically if u have a slow connection, ur screwed....20 to 50mbps is no longer fast when you have thousands of gamers with over 100 to 200 mbps dl....I for one love this game, the best of all games cod has put out along with cod4.....great job 3arc...

how is the lag? ive seen a lot of people complaining about it


I've done a few hard resets on the Xbox and it seems to clear it up until I stop playing. It's almost like a shutter instead of lag. Not sure how to describe it. Might be an issue with how the game resumes..

Dear cod friends,

It has come to my attention that 3arc has their patented lag compensation in this game.

so, lag yourself on purpose via downloading or streaming on your PC to be able to kill people with 2 hits

Interesting.

I never noticed any straight up lag where people where teleporting or I would have trouble hitting them.

I would always feel like I was playing with an airsoft gun though. Seems like it takes me 4-6 hits to kill someone (which seems rational on non hard core), but people would pop me 2-3 times and I'm down for the count.

I'm gonna try this lag theory

the boost packs and wall running kill it for me. black ops 2 was the last really good one IMO. AW and this one are just not CoD to me. If I wanted to walk on walls and fly around I'd play Titanfall, which is a good game, but its not CoD, and neither is this. Figuratively speaking at least.

Havent been this disappointed in a game release in a long time.... well, other than Legends of the Sword Coast.

This is why I'm not fond of it thus far. Everything else is ok.

Yeah but that's enough to ruin it for me. Makes the pace of the game just not fun. You anticipate your enemy's movements and the somehow they end up behind you even thought they went the exact direction you predicted. Makes the game a complete run and gun spray fest. Depressing :(

I completely agree. I'll prolly play it a few more times just to feel somewhat justified for buying it, but otherwise it has been a massive disappointment.

I jumped back into Dirty Bomb (a free FPS put out by Steam), It is entirely more fun and enjoyable, without all ridiculous jet packing and wall running. You should give it a go.

Probably gonna do as u are, try it a bit longer given the $60 I paid and then go back to destiny where the jet packs fit and I can play pve over pvp. Lol

I really like the wall running actually. I'll buy a CoD game once every 4 years and I've been enjoying it so far.

This game sucks balls. Please COD just go back to the past/present.

we don't need to go any further into jump packs and wall running

I'd really be down for a Vietnam based COD. I'd even settle for an up to date WW2.

This futuristic crap is nonsense.

Have to put your hopes in Battlefield 5 then.

I think the multiplayer is a lot of fun. The wall-running and boosting are minimalist additions at best, but I rarely find them to be frustrating. The XR-2 assault rifle pwns brahz

So TheRace just ended, with donations (like $204K), Activision matching that, and the sponsors they raised just over $451K for a charity to help Vets find jobs. At the end Trey bumped them to maxed Prestige 55.

Got it yesterday. I really thought it was a lot of fun. Some issues to work out for sure but I had a blast. Don't particularly care for the wall running and boost packs but they really took it down a notch from AW which is perfect.

I am with a lot of you here, just wish they'd quit going even further into the future. But all these killstreaks and "Sparrows" gravity spikes and all that are pretty exciting so I am sure it sells like crazy.

they are minimalist additions... until they all add up to a game that is so fast paced that if you slow down to peek around a corner before running into a room you will likely be killed. You used to be not only able, but rewarded, for tactical play in CoD. All these things have just made it more and more fast paced run and gun. I'm just personally not a fan of that. Blops 2 and MW2/3 were the pinnacles to me. its been all down hill from there

my favorite gun so far is the Gorgon. They nerfed it over the last week, but it's still 2-3 single shots with it to down someone in core mode gameplay. Which means it's most likely a one shot kill in Hardcore modes
