They should add slow motion too.

They would fuck it up somehow and even if they didn't, retards would still complain that it's "OP".
Max Payne 3 had slow mo in it's multiplayer, so I know it can work, but modern day IW/Treyarch and especially Sledgehammer? No way they can implement it properly or fairly.
BTW I still miss Max Payne 3's multiplayer. It was never as big as COD and especially GTA Online, hence why R* gave up on it so fast, but it was super fun. The juggernaut suit actually felt better to use there than it did in COD in years, add double sawn offs and shootdodging to the mix and you got some real MW2 OP jank right there. I remember I used to piss people off with explosive builds since there wasn't a reliable protection against those unless you used the juggernaut suit, got me quite a few death threats. Free For All gamemode was real cool too, you could even choose your own avatars in that one(MP1 constipated Max included, as well as other favorites like Nicole Horne, Mona Sax, Vinnie Gognitti or Jack Lupino. There was even an achievement for killing Max Payne as Nicole Horne in Roscoe Street Station map).
Raycevik covered Max Payne 3. and he goes over the multiplayer as well in case you missed out on it

Do any of you guys have any opinions on Plutonium and HorizonMW? Looking at Horizon it looks to be the most well/professionally maintained but Plutonium also has OG MW3, WAW, BO2, etc.

Curious if it's anything anyone else here plays on or was interested in.

Dunno if Pluto implemented checking for game ownership. I did link my steam account but idk. WaW doesnt have many people playing mainly because atvi fixed the game key issue. I have played MW3 the most because of the bot warfare mod.
Have yet to try HMW, mainly because the map ports are half baked. That c&d ruined the mod.

If you're doing well in a match, does that mean the opposing team is affected by the SBMM? Like you yourself are a product of the SBMM without knowing it.

I use Plutonium to play bot matches on WaW. It works fine.

Most likely means you got kicked down a tier if you just had a couple bad matches.

Played a couple hours of BLOPS 6 at a friends house. My 2 cents

Zombies is really really good. Feels like Treyarch really put all the effort into that. I’m tempted to buy it to play with my buddy for Co-Op. Only having 2 levels on release is kinda weird though.

Multiplayer only being 6v6 feels kinda stripped down and maybe that’s a good thing because COD was never meant to be Battlefield or something else. Maps just seem functional.

COD is slop and Treyarch knows it. Pretty solid game might pick it up if I’m tempted.

Just wrapped up the campaign, and

I beat it about 12 hours ago, been sitting on it, and I've decided that either I'm stupid as fuck or the campaign is stupid as fuck.

this pretty much sums up how I feel about it. It's not you, the campaign story is fucked. Most of the missions aren't bad themselves, and I actually enjoyed having some (jank) stealth sections early on. They don't really lead into one another very well and just feel like a collection of different themes you'd see mid-game. Some parts definitely jumped the shark higher than others. The casino heist and the final mission stand out the most. The highlights for me were the Met Gala mission and storming Saddam's palace. The humor of finding large piles of U.S. dollars throughout it isn't lost on me.

Case as a character just seems to serve as a way to tie in the Zombies mission, because otherwise he isn't really tangiently related to the plot.
The audio logs in Iraq give a bit of flavor lore, but they don't do anything with it. Why mention his brother if he never gets a name, a face, or any story impact, unless they plan to flesh it out down the line with Zombie maps? I have the pretty much the same issues that you've stated. Case is essentially a F.E.3.R. character in a Call of Duty setting.

A friend of mine asked me to sum it up, so a relatively spoiler-free synopsis:

You pump a glowie full of mind-shattering psychedelics and then play out an ego death scenario before the main big bad gets strangled to death by a super soldier tweaking on ultra PCP. Roll credits.

When's the last time you blew the dust out of the machine?

Can that be done without needing to take it apart? I had the pro version PS4 and you had to rip the damn thing apart just to get to clean the fan blades where the dust has clogged up. I can't imagine they made it easier with the PS5.

A can of compressed air in the intake will usually blow a ton of crap out the exhaust. I do it while the machine is running so the dust doesn't just settle.

when did the ps5 come out again? no im kidding, i use a air can once every two months. the game is just buggy, same thing happened when modern warfare came out. the cutscenes were in slow motion for some reason
 
Anybody remember when MW3 had prestige tokens to unlock stuff upon prestiging? And that glitch where you could have "infinite" prestige tokens through a friend joining, then backing out of a public match?


IW/Sledgehammer Games would reset your stats upon patching it. Not even JUST reset, but give you 0 wins, 1000 losses; 0 kills, 10000 deaths. I think Xbox Live banned you as well.

How come people never complained about the several anachronisms in Black Ops 1 compared to almost every AAA game being dissected for every historical inaccuracy?

They were a few but the general consensus is that the game was originally set much later but got revised to an earlier timeframe but by that point all the vehicle/weapon models had already been made so they just ran with it.
