Not a perk. Have to use stock attachment. Also, sensitivity goes up to 20 I heard?Bear with me here....(360 version)
--It is not grainy like Ghosts. It looks great.
--Sound effects are much, much, better.
--Definite learning curve with the exo suit. I enjoy it early...
--I don't like the speed while ADS. (Too slow) I may tinker with the sensitivity, or hopefully there is a perk to get??
--Not noticing any camping or sniper shots just yet.
As usual, it's frustrating for me just starting out (my skills are OK), but, I have patience. I think you guys will enjoy this change of pace. It is different but it is still CoD, if that makes sense.

Pretty disappointed that they seem to have disabled SharePlay for this. I haven't bought it yet, but will pretty soon. Tried to jump on and do some coop with a buddy last night via SharePlay and it wouldn't work. Did some Googling and it appears SharePlay doesn't work with this. Boo.

So played a couple of hours last night, online and multiplayer offline with my son.
For some reason it reminds me more of MW3 as far as the guns go, can't put my finger on why but I think possibly the sound?
I do not like the jet packs at all....much too haloish to me and now you have to look not only watch for windows and guys on roofs, but people flying around the maps. I know it doesn't last long, but just don't like it at all. Feel like it will come down to who can use the jet packs best will be the best players.
That said, it is a big upgrade visually over Ghosts and I like the maps once I can play enough to get to know them.
The kill streaks don't seem as overpowered as some in the past, but feeling like hiding from the UAVs is a must.
Perks...figuring this out as I go.
Guns...like SMGs and have been running the K7 (I think...second one) but feel like with all the flying around range is going to be important and most people seem to be using the AK (second or third Assault rifle) so I might end up switching to that.
Grenades...these are weird, you don't throw them they shoot out of your wrist and seem to take a long time for it to happen. Died a couple of times trying to recover from grenade launching and couldn't get my weapon back up in time so just stopped using them. Only died a couple of times from grenades so don't think many people are using them.
Conclusion....don't know yet if I am going to like it or not. Lots of good things but the jet packs maybe a deal breaker, we will see.

I'm loving the jetpacks as well as the higher time to kill. Not sure if I like the guns yet - feels like the SMG's have no range at all and that's traditionally what I've used. I don't mind it though as that is how it should be.
My K/D is a woeful 1.2 right now early on but I do believe the learning curve is quite steep. Don't quite understand the point of most of the scorestreaks available early on so far. At least they aren't overpowered though.

First game I was 17-5 in TDM.
Outside of Detroit I really loved all of the maps. Don't get me wrong, Detroit is not a bad map, just not as great as the others.
You can play this game like old COD's and still have great games once you know where the jump spots are. I took a coulle hours just getting used to jumping around and getting used to the Exo and it came pretty naturally.
SMG's are getting a bad rep cause they don't hit from mid to long range like the AR's and that's fine with me. IMHO they shouldn't be great at those spots and there's plenty of CQ spots for an SMG
You lose ammo like a mofo in this game. Grab the first gun a guy drops until you get extended mags or scavenger.
I always start my streaks off with 2 low and one high until I get enough out of the care packages to see what to use. The Warbird was awful for me. I may have got it a total of 5 times and would be lucky to have 5 kills. When the Goliath became available I switched to that and had much better success. As far as care packages go there's some that are specific to the maps again. I got something called marching tanks on one map and a rail gun on Detroit. Pretty cool stuff.
The AR's were all good for me last night too. The ARX is a 3 round hurts but seems to come with sleight if hand built in which is pretty sweet. It kind of levels the playing field and the gun drops people in one burst mid range. There's also a TON of good sights in this game for guns.
Speaking of some of the guns I noticed some are different. I picked up a AK that said "AK Trigger Happy) on it and another that said "BAL27 Blood thirsty" what are they?
After like 5 hours I feel better about the game than the other COD's.

Yeah. I typed that and it gave me 331 options with EAbell in it. Couldn't find just straight EAbell.

on ps3 and about 75% of the time when starting a game i spectate some dood who is already playing and then join about the 10-15 second mark of the game. Not a huge deal but not sure why it does this. Others are spawing for the first time too with me. connection isnt slow as rest of game play is fine. More annoying than anything
Same happened to me a couple of nights ago, had to restart the game. Of course it happened when I was actually having a good match.

The longer I played last night the less I like it. May just be the small sample size I have to date but I really hate the exo suits. I think they tried to be too cute with what they are doing with the game. I quit the multiplayer last night and started playing the campaign (I have always played the campaigns through at least once). Online play was just not enjoyable. Random spawns (you would think they would have learned from Ghosts as this was a major gripe with that game), the halo players shooting (with dead aim of course) while going sideways through the air, lots of head glitching and getting shot from across the map with ARs (isn't that what you should have to use sniper rifles for?). Looks and plays a lot like titan fall to me....and that is gathering dust in my sons room.
Doubt I will play it for long and am already regretting the purchase. I will play a while longer to make sure it doesn't grow on me, but Ghosts never did and I think this will be an unplayed game shortly as well.
