Is there really jetpack jumping in MP?

Well 'jetpack' in that you can do double jumps and boost left/right/forwards/backwards. The addition of verticality is pretty damn awesome. There's a classic playlist without the exo suit though for those that want it.

Anyone managed to get a game of classic MP going tonight? I wanna play without these suits, I'm still having a blast with them though.

Edit: oops PS4

Isn't there a game mode that's basically football? I seem to remember something from one of the oreview videos, guess is should turn on my PS4 and find out myself :p


Can't get a game going but "uplink" says: throw or carry the drone to the station to score. Sounds interesting.

Will this be an optional game mode option for match making?

Yeah it is optional, it's a 'classic playlist' with classic team deathmatch, classic domination, classic kill confirmed and a few others. I 'think' classic search and destroy is one but I'd need to check.

I wish they had separate stats for each playlist, i never try new game modes cause i don't want to fuck mu K/D score, i'm a whore i know :(
 
I've been following most of this thread and haven't seen this mentioned yet.

Best Buy is offering up to $20 trade-in for CoD:Ghosts (depending on which version you trade, new-gen are $20) when you use the value towards picking up Advanced Warfare, plus they're offering an additional $10 off coupon. They're doing the Sunday night 9 p.m. release as well.

Has anyone taken advantage of this yet? Think I'm gonna swing by there tomorrow.
 
Does anyone know how the 2XP works? Do you have to enter a code for it to kick in or does it just run for a set time?

I only ask because I'm in Australia and our launch is in 11hrs. Just curious if it will start straight up or if we have to wait.

Uplink, and it is basically Bombing Run from UT2k4

Ah that's right. I remember seeing the trailer for it and getting some really heavy UT vibes. Would love to try it out but the only modes I can find a game in TDM. Also, has anyone else with the game noticed that it doesn't display the total number of people playing in each mode? I seem to remember all the previous CODs doing this.
 
goddammit, i'm caving. it's just that i need a new game where i can shoot people as a stress relief. any psychologists on here, and is that too weird? lol

One of the interesting aspects is the whole 'loot' system that they have in place. From what I've seen so far it seems to be cosmetic items as well as weapons with slightly different stats than the 'standard' model you unlock at whatever level. (example being an 'alternative' model has +1 extra mobility but -1 range or something like that). Now if you receive a weapon from a level you haven't reached it you can't use the weapon 'standard' or 'modified' BUT you can trash that item for XP that adds to your level overall. I just did that there now with a weapon I couldn't use (for level 32 and I'm 12) and it gave me some xp which helped take me from level 11 to 12.

No way! I bought MW3 and it basically unlocked it on Steam for me. I didn't see why they even had a disc inside.

There's a good SP in there I know it. God it's gotten annoying when people just look at the MP. I can't turn this into Titanfall day 1.

It's CoD. I can't believe people forgot the whole vibe already. It hasn't been that long. There seems to be an unwanted vibe about CoD anymore.

I gotcha. I remember installing games when I had to do it at another building. I didn't have the Internet for a couple years.

I preloaded RAGE at the University I went to. God the nightmares I had after that. Lol now I take the connection for granted. What was worse was BF, now that's what nightmares are made of. I never want to install another 50 GB game unless it's covered in Doritos and Mountain Dew. I swear to God. I'm overreacting a bit, but I do want to witness the single player campaign. I haven't enjoyed a war campaign in a while.

Never forget.

I so want to forget, sorry for reminding.

He's probably mad at the upperheads in the industry that tried to make money off MW outside of just being a game.

Makes me mad too
:: punches wall seven times ::

The financial money makers in the industry don't care at all.

He's acting a bit spoiled, but I can somewhat relate to why he got so mad. I've been let down before big time with FPS, but I actually enjoyed MW2 a lot. That's been a while. I am hoping for the best with AW.

It's hard earned cash the market mandates on open and used copies. You want the new experience without having to wait for the better scored version.
