Re: Yet another sniping/quick scoping discussion

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 00:13:16 GMT

Stop acting like snipers are so OP. If they were OP everyone would be using them but not a lot of people do. You know why? Because to "crush" every other weapon with a sniper you actually have to be good at using a sniper, and that means practicing hours upon hours with a sniper and perfecting your sniping skills. Sadly skill and practice does not go hand in hand with Call of Duty which is why 90% of people choose to stick with easy mode no skill SMG's and AR's.

Re: XBOX One Vs PS4

In an Amazon poll 20k people voted they would buy the PS4 while only 1k people voted they would buy Xbox One. I believe the tides have turned.

Re: Quickscoping Thread

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 07 Jun 2013 06:34:51 GMT

Wtf that's already what quickscoping is... quickscopers don't hit there target 100% of the time, thats what makes them inferior to SMG's and AR's and basically every other weapon up close.

100% agree, this would be awesome

BO2 sniping would be perfect assuming COD ghost's smgs arent as op as BO2's smgs. I mean those damn things could drop you before you could even bring your scope up.

Re: Dynamic Maps!

I'd much rather prefer destructable environments, we've already had dynamic maps somewhat back in Black Ops 1 and no one really cared.

Why the new skill based match making sucks

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 24 Nov 2012 07:40:27 GMT

As you know Treyarch has implemented a new system in the match making that puts you with others that has around the same spm (score per minute) and kd as you. This system is extremely flawed because Treyarch is assuming that you will be playing at your best at all times. I myself have an above average spm when I tryhard, but what happens if I want to snipe? What happens if I want to use a riot shield, or go for headshots with my pistols? WHat I'm saying is that it's impossible to use anything but a type 25 or msmc unless you want to die every gunfight.

While this is somewhat good for noobies (even though noobs matched up with noobs will never encourage them to get any better), it sucks for the rest of us who just wants to chill and play COD, and not tryhard our hearts out like money is on the line just for a decent score. After all COD is just a video game and we just want to have fun. If we wanted competition and wanted to VS people with our skill level, we would play LEAGUE MATCHES.

Now to my next point, why on earth would you implement this skill based match making system when you JUST introduced league matches. Are you trying to get people to not play league matches? What is the point of having 2 skill based matching making systems? It doesn't make sense, if I wanted to just relax and have a nice game I would go to a normal playlist, and if I wanted some nice competition I would go to a skill based playlist, but in Black Ops 2 there are only 2 skill based playlists and nothing else.

I don't care if I cant get high killstreaks, I don't care if I dont get 50+ kills a game, I'm not a pub stomper. I just want to hop on BO2 and play a few games without wanting to rip my hair out. I want to be able to run around with a riot shield and crossbow without 5 tryhards with silenced msmc's head glitching preasuring me to switch back to my boring tryhard class. We all know that COD entirely revolves around catering to noobs, but please Treyarch, just for once, do your REAL fans a favour and get rid of this crappy skill based match making system.

Wrong, Vanh has mentioned it multiple times on his twitter that there is skill based match making in public matches

Many commentators have tested this, they always get put into games with high K/D and high ranked people, but when are in a party filled with low K/D players, they get matched with low K/D people.

Re: Anyone else think the Ballista gets too many hit markers?

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 25 Nov 2012 00:46:11 GMT

Did you seriously just call me an idiot and ASUME that I quickscope? Looks like we have a hypocrite here. I've unlocked the gold ballista, have you? Do you know HOW many hitmarkers I had to go through to unlock gold? Quickscoping, or hardscoping, its impossible to aim for a very small specifigic region of an enemy since the game's hit detection is garbo cause of the lag. If you actually used the sniper yourself, you WOULD now that you get an unbelievable amount of hitmarkers, so obviously you don't.

Re: Why the new skill based match making sucks

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 24 Nov 2012 20:52:19 GMT

I disagree with this because generally new players will not waste money on map packs since they barely know the game, its the hardcore gaming community that buys the map packs and even on multiple consoles since they're that dedicated to the game.

Re: Anyone else think the Ballista gets too many hit markers?

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 24 Nov 2012 02:45:08 GMT

Its impossible to "take your time to line up shots" because you'll be spotted and killed instantly with an assault rifle. Its hard to say that a weapon is considered a "skill weapon" just because it has worst dmg, it just makes it a useless weapon since the connection/hit box in the game is so terrible

Re: Help with aiming-how to practice properly?

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 24 Nov 2012 02:42:00 GMT

First of all, are you playing on a big tv over 30" or on a monitor? If you're playing on a big TV, you WILL recieve input lag and it will drastically affect your gameplay. Trust me on this, the moment i switched to a monitor instead of using my crappy samsung 40" it felt sooo much better.

Other then that, keep practicing and accept the fact that you aren't a pro. In a year or so or maybe even a few months you'll be able to win every gunfight in no time

Very smooth for me with above average hit detection, but I always get owned by instantaneous deaths and magic bullets

Re: Anyone else think the Ballista gets too many hit markers?

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 21 Nov 2012 05:05:39 GMT

I use the actualy scope and i've been sniping since COD4 (skipped BO though), and I've never recieved less hitmarkers accumulated through out those years then in 1 game of bo2 with the ballista. Don't even get me started with the iron sights its absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to do decent with the iron sights, theres no way to properly aim since there's actual flinch and the theres sight sway, not to mention the ridiculous ads time and 70% chance of getting a hitmarker, its a nightmare.

Re: Anyone else think the Ballista gets too many hit markers?

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 20 Nov 2012 22:38:20 GMT

I COMPLETELY agree, i played 15-20 games straight with the ballista and accumlated over 100 hitmarkers, its ridiculous. I know you have to "aim" and all, but when the target is 200 meters away and hes on the move, its hard NOT to miss anywhere but the chest...
