Creaking

He touched the black heart of a mod
This game sounds awesome but is a graphical disaster. Wonder what is the root cause of this.

Return of 4-player local play, maybe?

(I can dream)

Haha yeah. Just a bit... This is me getting in a knife fight with someone in FFA in BO2.

Ha, I've got a fight recorded just like that one. Although we ended up losing track of each other. I went back in theater, and it turns out that he ended up killing me. Don't know if I ever uploaded it though.

So glad theater mode is returning.

Can't register an Activision account to redeem my beta code. Just tells me my password isn't good enough even randomly generated.
 
This is what sold me on it. Bow and arrow mostly.

If he is why don't the PC players have the essentials? A server browser has been what the PC community has been asking for ever since they removed it. That and rentable servers.



BO2 was P2P at the start. Dedicated servers took ages to come in. And even then private servers were P2P. And yeah I don't believe anything from someone that makes money playing CoD on a youtube channel. They aren't exactly going to bite the hand that feeds them.

No, it wasn't. You can keep repeating your bs but it won't make it true.

Here's a more robust list of new info since yesterday. Lots to take in.

Campaign
Co-op
Multiplayer
Zombies
New Functionality/Modes
Movement System
PC Version
This has made me a bit more excited for it.
 
Looks like GameStop pre-orders also have limited edition concept art booklets (only 10,000 available) available to the lucky few who get there early enough.
 
Now that's what I'm talkin' about. Bow and arrow makes any shooter instantly good, even though Brandon sold me on the Gatling gun before it was mentioned with it acting like the TF2 heavy.

Here's another gif. These are both MP Specialist abilities.

Any news if mp or coop will have split screen?

Splitscreen confirmed for co-op campaign, unknown as of yet exactly how many but at least 2 for sure.
Not sure on MP.

Excited for no Exo suits. At first I was loving it but after I personally thought they made the game mode I enjoyed most pretty pointless especially on Hardcore (Search and destroy). The amount of times I would be shooting the enemy and team mate would boost into my line of fire is crazy.

Zombies hopefully will be fun but usually its the last DLC map that's any good. Der Reise and Moon are the only two good maps in zombies. BO2 zombies was completely forgettable although grief mode was fun for a few hours.

This is the 4th game in this COD universe, I wonder where they could go after this. Im thinking too far ahead though.

About the Black Ops 3 camo digital preorder.. do you receive a code for the camo download, or is it automatically downloaded when preordering?

Anyone having trouble redeeming their beta? I can't get into my activision account. I tied to enter a password in but it wouldnt accept it. I thought maybe I just didnt remember my password so I tried to reset it.

When I tried entering a new password they just refused to accept it like it didn't match the requirements, which aren't that strict.

8-10 characters
at least 1 letter and 1 number
no sequential characters (123, abc etc)
no repeating characters (aaa, 111, etc)

I even tried making a password with just random letters numbers and other characters and it wouldn't accept.

Logging in through facebook gave me an error too,

Dedicated servers sold me the game :)
Doesnt mean anything. They could set the snaps and rate to stupidly low levels so its just as crummy as p2p, but if the community can tweak servers then we can have higher settings and better experiences. This is why cod 4 and blops 1 are lag free.
 
Anyone here pre ordered it from Best Buy? I did it yesterday and haven't received my code. Best Buy's website says it can take up to 72 hours but I am wondering if anyone got it already!

In COD, finding a low-latency game of one's liking quickly and with the ability to queue with friends is what most consider essential, not the ability to filter search criteria. Custom games now serve the purpose that rented servers did, and they're segregated from regular matchmaking as they ought to be. I hope going forward that customs will be hosted by dedicated servers too, though.
