Oh, I didn't know that. Didn't play any of the AW DLC. Kind of wish I had, though it came out before I had my job on my schools campus.

Switched from playing Hardpoint/Defender to HC Dom. Much easier to complete weapon camo challenges, but my K/D has dropped by like .1

Ya I might have to play some HC to get the SMG sliding kills done. That is a pain to do, I have like 5 total on all the smg's so far. Ugh.

It already entered WTF territory with the Aussie Man Reviews voice pack. Ken Jeong doesn't seem as odd.
I'm thinking next Tuesday. If not, then the next one for absolute certain.
It's actually kind of crazy how good IW has been handling new weapons.
They continue to add new weapons and not lock them only behind RNG loot crates, all are earnable via fairly easy challenges or free to season pass holders in addition to the loot boxes. And there have been ZERO melee weapons added so far as well. (Edit: Correction, forgot about the axe. But it's only one melee weapon at least.)
Meanwhile, Treyarch just added the AK-74u and M1911 pistol, locked behind lootboxes, with plenty of melee weapons that all behave the exact same way but look different added previously.
It's kind of bullshit how CoD: IW and the developer get shitted on by ignorant people.
It's going to be such bad form now if WWII and other future CoDs add new weapons and only allow them to be unlocked via random boxes. IW has set THE standard as far as that goes.
Hell, even in BO2 and Ghosts before supply drops were a thing, you had to pay to get the new weapons (Peacekeeper and Ripper for example) that were added in those respective games. CoD: IW makes them truly free for the first time in the series.

Agree, the way they do weapons if there needs to be supply drops is the right way to do it and people who complain are just idiots. I cant stand the way Black Ops 3 does it and if WW2 does it that way it will definitely turn me off.
I got a huge amount of keys in my daily login the other day and decided to go for the 225 Bundle...
Holy crap I'm happy I did!
I got 2 Epics!
I got the DMR-1 Spectacle and R-VN - Blowout!
I still use the R-VN often so to get the Epic is amazing! Can't wait to use it in MP and in Shuffle.

And those complainers just hang out at the Charlie Intel's comments section. Strange how the haters love to hang out at a place they hate..
You got your wish Kalentan. RVN got a buff to fire rate, but a reduced range to make up for it. One or the other had to be reduced to make up for it, otherwise it would start to become OP, which I predicted awhile back.

In addition to that and mentioned before, latest patch also added new code for weapons and variants that are possibly coming down the line. New variants include:
- epic Volk that's converts it to a ballistic weapon (AK-47 anyone?).
- Nuke Erad
- Nuke RAW
New weapons include:
- Burst fire LMG with possibly an underbarrel smoke grenade launcher (Black Ops 3 48 Dredge?)
- Some sort of Magnum
- Sniper/Shotgun hybrid. I'm guessing they mean by holding down the switch weapon button, it becomes one or the other?
- Burst fire SMG with underbarrel grenade launcher (Advanced Warfare AMR9?)
- Another energy AR that is either semi auto or can fire charged shots.

While the range reduction does suck, I appreciate the buff. I tried it out and I feel like I'm hitting the targets more often now. Which is sort of the point of the buff.

One of the best COD campaigns, so yes for the right price
Yes, it's the best campaign since 4 if you ask me.

It has been awhile since I left this game. Is there a list of all new weapons since launch? Desert Eagle perhaps 
?

No Deagle yet. There have been 7 new weapons so far.
R-VN: Rapid two round burst energy AR that can split apart into a one-hit-kill melee mode.
UDM: Slower fully-auto ballistic handgun with longer range and good damage.
Axe: Melee weapon that can be thrown and retrieved (supply drops only as of yet).
VPR: Double-barreled ballistic SMG that shoots two bullets at a time. Very rapid and quite strong. Was extremely overpowered for a little while.
X-Eon: Energy AR with a special integrated sight. Very accurate and stable from the hip, but much faster when fired while aiming.
Trencher: It's an MP-28. Strong ballistic SMG that is closer to an assault rifle in some of its stats. Longer 3-shot kill range than most SMGs, but damage falls off quick after that.
Auger: Ballistic minigun LMG. Very strong and fast, but with some kick and a slow initial firing time.
In addition, we're very likely to get two new weapons next week. A futuristic version of the Model 1887, and a break-action single round sniper rifle.
Also potentially in the pipeline.
I know this post won't get much love in the OT but after uninstalling Infinite Warfare and realising I've played Black Ops 3 so much that I'm burnt out, I reinstalled IW.

Your gameplay really shows how the game has become inaccessible or overwhelming for many people. I watched the first few minutes of the video. I can tell that you're using some sort of default control setup so that you can't aim and jump at the same time. Your team ends up getting pushed around because each time the spawn flips, everyone seems to jump on the flag instead of some of you getting some map control. In the gameplay, it seemed that you couldn't quite anticipate where the enemy would be coming from. The other team appears better, and they just kill your team while flying through the air.
Something about being killed by flying people seems to turn people off from the 3D movement CoDs. Getting smashed in the grounded CoDs doesn't seem to frustrate people as much even though the scorestreaks in BO2, MW2, etc. were extremely powerful, rewarding the top players with numerous free kills. I started playing CoD with Ghosts, and I was a complete noob, yet I persisted in playing. I don't know how I'd feel if I had started with BO3 or IW.

Thanks for the advice! Having a blast playing it in 30 min to 1 hour chunks!
Yeah, the game has been pretty dry for over a month now, and forgoing a weekly hack/bundle for a COD-point only Rare crate discount (you can't even stockpile them) is not a good way to enthuse the player base.
Fortunately, it is veeery very likely that there's going to be a content update this Tuesday. Should have the Model 2187 and new break-actions sniper. Maybe new variants too. Also, they've said they're adding bounties, which are the same as weekly contracts, but for zombies. DLC 3 should be around the corner too for PS4 users. Probably July 4th or 11th.

Man, this games matchmaking has gotten bad. I played this game for the first time in a month or two yesterday, and my friends and I could only really play TDM. Kill Confirmed is a dead playlist after IWs brilliant idea to merge it with Frontline, and even Dom lobbies were difficult to find and keep. The worst part is that lobbies dont refill in this game, so when half the lobby has quit in 2 minutes after the first sign of resistance, youre playing against 2-3 players for half of the match. Plus the party system is still unstable, with our party breaking up at least 4-5 times in one night.
Call of Duty Days of Summer event for Infinite Warfare (also MWR and BO3).

Includes:
- New loot and weekly loot giveaways.
- New characters including Reyes as Merc, Captain Price, and Ghost.
- DLC2 map Turista will be playable for all players for free until August 1st when the event ends.
Also, double everything is live. Double XP, double weapon XP, double keys, and double Mission Team XP.

If you're planning on playing HC, be aware there is a bug with the new Proteus weapon hipfire autoaim that makes it broken/OP. IW is aware and is working on a fix, but probably best to stay in core modes for the moment, unless having everyone in your lobby running with a weapon that can hipfire collateral entire groups across the map is your thing, then go for it, I guess.
Yeah, it's pretty hilarious. This thing is worse than the Javelin Glitch and Akimbo Model 1887 combined for hardcore mode. It was a great way to max out the weapon and complete some challenges though, heh.

Anyone bought the Grandma Knows Best Voice Over Pack for IW?
Hahahaha, I cannot believe this is a thing. Activision really give no fucks at this stage.

So glad I haven't played any of these games much since BLOPS2. All this running on walls, flying in the air is just awful.
Glad they're taking that shit out for WW2.
Yep, it's a decent time to jump into MP right now since they are doing their Days of Summer event. There's double XP, double weapon XP, etc. which will help with your progression. Plus they are giving away free items the next few weeks by login in on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Also, one of the DLC maps is currently free for all players for the duration of the event.
If you were to get the season pass, it would be better mostly for getting all the weapons that have been given away from the season pass plus extra daily login bonuses and of course new maps.
Oh that's pretty great timing.
I played Infinite Warfare once at a mates just briefly and couldn't get a handle on it, although it doesn't help that I'd been playing a lot of Titanfall 2 at the time. I probably didn't give Infinite Warfare enough credit, the movement felt bizarrely restrictive coming from Titanfall 2, I'm sure this game is its own beast though and I just need time to adapt. I'd like to get at least one Prestige cycle down before moving on to the bigger shooters this coming holiday, I never played MW3 or Ghosts so I'm curious to see how an Infinity Ward game feels after all this time.
The game feels very Black Ops 3 if you played that, but with some differences. Coming from Titanfall, the movement will definitely feel lesser, I can agree with that. Titanfall definitely nails that aspect better. Like any game, it's just something you would have to get used to.
This was pretty much my experience from the Beta.
I wanted to like the game so much but it's way too damn chaotic.

It's so sad this games player retention is this bad. I love how it approaches the loot box stuff so much, I think it does it better than any other game since it throws hacks at you to get the loot you want so often. Plus the free guns and all the events... it's just a shame BO3 plays so much better, and it kills me that I play it more because I hate it's boxes so much. This game isn't terrible, but when you have so many alternatives... it must suck since they're really trying to give a shit this time. Too bad the game isn't up to scuff.
What's wrong with it? It's a reference to all of those old movies.
Whoa, this campaign is bloody fantastic so far, I've probably got a few hours left to go, I'll write something a bit more elaborate when I finish it, but so far I'm glad they've really elaborated on a lot of the more ambitious Black Ops 3 ideas in a way that's a lot more enjoyable to play.

I haven't played zombies until recently with the added contracts and double xp/keys. It's surprisingly fun. I did not like BO3 zombies at all and haven't been interested in the game mode since BO1. But this is great. Shame that the other maps are tied to the respective map packs because I really wan't to play Rave in the Redwoods.

The key/supply drop system is the same as in BO3, only here you have salvage which let's you craft weapon variants. The added weapons are pretty good but not P2W. And there are challenges to unlock them, so you don't need to rely on supply drops.
