COD: Black Ops 3 (1 Viewer)

Anyone using Xbox can feel free to add me. My username is guitarmonkiy. Just got back into the game so still shaking off some rust but I'm on pretty frequently.

 
Feel free to add me if you need a generally sucky, rushing, cannon-fodder, guinea-pig-to-test-open-space kind of guy.Wife is sick, so should be on a lot this weekend.Xbox Live: Rail 39

 
pS3 tag is swirvenirven on there if anyone is looking for more guys to play with.k/d is 1.46 or around there
CzarNikolaiLet's make it happen.K/D is 1.05 but takes for every to climb as I get better because I'm in 8th prestige.And I'm not resetting my stats and losing my diamond camos. Those things are so sexy
I'll grab you tonight or tomorrow, I usually only play when drinking :banned:also ps3 connection has sucked for me I can usually only go 4 games or so without getting the synchronizing settings then have to reboot. Plus yesterday I was down to one bar for some reason and had to restart

I got two Connection Interrupteds last night while playing 3 person zombies with two guys that have 20MB down and 5MB up that live within 300 miles of me. It's ridiculous.

 
Just came in here to see whats going on. So the Xbox crew has largely disbanded? Dont have much time for the game right now but Ihope to dive back in after spring football.

 
Generally speaking--It was nice of you PS3 guys to purchase the new maps only to vote for the same old sh1't every chance you get
Does that mean the new maps are in the general map rotation and not just the Revolution playlist?
Yeah they were in there as soon as they came out. Good luck playing them of Raid, Hijacked or Slims comes up.
Man do I despise Raid & Aftermath. Hate em.ETA: All CoD games are dirt cheap today only on XBL.

I rarely ever see Aftermath. Raid isn't a bad map but the community has run it into the ground.
 
Playing with a group this weekend and I said I just suck because I am old and don't have the reflexes any more...1 of the guys said I am old also. Told them my age and he said "I am not that old, but we could have been in school together...you would have been my teacher though" :finger:

 
I find all maps still interesting, I think it's because I've been working for diamond on all main guns.Changing guns me to change perks, loadout, routes, angles and streaks.Just 1.5 ARs to go...Not doing the shield, knives, bow, launchers, etc.

Letting players vote on which map to play was a bad change for the series.Want to play a big map, that takes time and strategy? Too bad, cause its gonna be Nuketown, Firing Range, Dome, Raid, Hijacked, whatever small map that satisfies the ADD kids to kill or be killed every second.

That was pretty funny.

Yeah, my wife thought so too. :rolleyes: You young folks just need to get off my lawn and let me suck at video games without making fun of me....of course I could just turn down the hearing aid I guess. ;)
 
Raid is the best map in the game imo. :shrug:
I loved Raid all 1000x I played it. When you just bought new maps why vote that over them? It makes zero sense to me. Same as the guys who play the new map and just refuse to move...how are you going to learn the map by staying in the same place? I dont get it.
 
And to be honest I think this is the best collection of maps in COD history. It took a little while to fine some nice llong lines of sight but once you do theyre great. I like Turbine but not in 6v6. If I had to pick a worst it would be Aftermath but I pretty much love every other map.

 
Aftermath - crap map. I like hanging out in the parking garage rigged with shock charges and betties and going 8-0 and pissing off the other teamCargo - ok, but if you're playing objective games that middle area is always wide open. Tough map. People love the house. Hide in the closet with a few KAP 40sCarrier - good change of space. Wide open but not too wide open. I do work with the FAL on this oneDrone - i hate this mapExpress - very easy to choke off the middle point that everyone seems to run through. Just keep rotating around the various stairwellsHijacked - speaks for itself. Guys love going under the boat during the first part of the game. I have a Lightweight/Extreme conditioning class. Love jumping down there and cutting them off at their ladder before they know what happened. Then move my position around the bottom of the shop as they inevitably keep running back through to try and get revengeMeltdown - another great map to do work with the FAL. Very easy to flank and get behind enemies spawn as wellOverflow - the only map I've ever gotten dogs on. Run n gun babyPlaza - I think plaza is awesome, but I like the disco. Lay down behind the bar and just watch the doorway of the opponents spawn. Move to up against their entry wall and rotate. Bang bangRaid - In the minority, but this map is annoying. Running through that courtyard with the art thingy in the middle always gets me cappedSlums - best mapStandoff - hate this mapTurbine - Ground war is fun, otherwise this map sucksYemen - great map for an AR

Agreed...good line :)I know I am late to the party by being old as well, but just bought the PS3 wireless headset...wow, what a difference after just using my old bluetooth mic. It was always good to be able to chat/strategeryize with teammates but with the surround sound, it's already saved my life a few times by hearing people walk up behind or beside me. I hedged a little by going MOR vs a Turtle Beach but after reading reviews the extra 2 bills didn't seem worth it. It's a different game now. One of the big perks is being able to adjust the balance to more game sound/lower chat or clearer chat/lower game sound.

1.Aftermath--Despise this map. Its a campfest in the bathroom. I try to avoid at all costs.2.Love Cargo. Run & gun attacking the middle containers with the MSMC.3.Love Carrier too. Attack spawn & camp points with the Peacemaker. They are always in the far corner or camping on those flaps.3.Drone--Hate it. I camp in the room by the helipad.4.Express--Love it. Run back & forth on the stairwells and catwalks, use the MSMC.5.Hijacked--Like it. Patrol the panel closest to the water and run back & forth between spawns.6.Meltdown--Hate it.7.Overflow--Camp a stairwell that looks over where everyone seems to head to.8.Plaza--Like it. Patrol the walkway with the 2 flower gardens with the Peacekeeper.9.Raid--Hate it. Camp the room above the pool.10.Slums--Love it. Run & gun with the MSMC and just chuck betties & shock sticks everywhere11.Standoff--Like it. Camp the skids facing an original spawn point.12.Turbine--OK. Patrol the side with the cliffs and the parked truck. Run back and forth.13.Yemen--Like it. Camp the room with the computer.14.Grind--Like it. Run back & forth on the side of the map with the bleachers. At a spawn flip, rush the middle.15.Mirage--Not a fan16.Hydro--Love it. All over this map with the Peacekeeper. Betties in the water are $.17.Downhill--Meh
 
I like the new maps a lot except for Mirage. The flag placements on Mirage are just terrible. And I feel like the layout ends up sacrificing a huge portion of the map. There are huge open spaces behind the buildings that are basically just useless unless you're an ultra camper.Hydro, Downhill and Grind are great though. I love Grind and Hydro just because they have such different elements on them than anything before. Downhill is a nice setup, but I think getting killed by the lifts is dumb.

Absolutely. No way a slow-moving chair lift kills anyone, much less a trained soldier.

One of the things I love about Mirage is the openness of it and where the flags are. It's a lot different then normal flag placement and makes for interesting play but the spawns need to be adjusted a bit
 
I like the triangle flag layout. There should be more maps like that. :shrug:
I think it's interesting, but it kind of eliminates the whole middle chunk of the map. Especially since you can't get across from the B side directly to the area with the bus.

What middle part of the map? I think the comment about the area behind A/C not getting used much is accurate, but the middle of the map is crucial on that one if you want to hold two flags or break out of a spawn trap.

I hardly use the building in the middle :shrug: I mostly chill on perimeter.

Any time I run through there it's a total ghost town. Like a giant empty cavern.

Me too but only because I have been trying to get the diamond AR's and those areas lend themselves to more long range battles. The M27 is a monster in those situations!

You broke my internet.. Had to spend the last 90 minutes on phone with ATT :bag:
 
Behind the curve like always, I finally got this game yesterday. My wife finally relented and agreed to let my boys play. I'll be playing with them for a while, learning the maps. Then I'll jump in and get my butt kicked online.

The last COD I played was Modern Warfare. There is a lot of new weapons and stuff to learn, and obviously the maps. Looks pretty good just from playing for a few hours last night though.
