Is this broken for anyone else? I can't seem to find any matches. Maintenance?

Really looking forward to the release, so I hope I can get a match in on this beta.

Yeah its broken, the only way to fix it is restart your PS4 until you get a match. If it starts putting you in your own lobby, then you have to restart.
 
Man im really getting frustrated with that Hit detection / netcode... its really not fun when my enemys are eating everything from me, but i cant take much shots and will die in 2-4 hits...
Its annoying. 2015 and still p2p whatever..

He's hacking. You need to send him hatemail and report him.

Welp at least we know they're working on it.
 
Just in case no one heard, the level cap will raise once enough people are level 28. Heard it on that Periscope event a few moments ago.

It takes 3 shots of a launcher to take down the RAPS, FYI. Just did that.

Yea i can't seem to find a match either, no matter what game mode i try. I tried joining a friend and i got in but it was a lobby with terrible ping. I guess I'm glad to know I'm not alone although there goes my after work plans.
 
Anyone that loved CoD4 and BO1, liked MW3 and BO2, but hated Ghosts and AW, how is it? lol.

I just want more BO1, tbh. I kept a 1.67 kdr in that game, yet barely break 1 in the newer games. What's so different??

That is back to those older games

Plain fun, it was missing in cod
 
Keep getting shit servers where my ping goes from 60-400ms constantly.

Every year i try to get into COD, but man. There's so much bullshit involved with these games. Kill someone - get shot in back. Get shot in the back. Get shot in the back. Get killed by random nade spam. Shot in back.

I just can't do it. I tried.

Hated Ghosts and AW.

BO3 is fan-fucking-tastic.
 
I only played a few matches but I'm not really feeling it yet... And it's taking forever to find a match which doesn't help. I'm sure it will improve once I get back into CoD mode.

I'm about 20 games in and so far I'm cautiously optimistic. I'm enjoying it which is more than I can say for my first 20 games in Ghosts and AW.

That's always my experience until I learn the maps...and even then it just comes with the territory.
 
just got an "call of duty black ops 3 servers are not available" message.
welp, looks like this is dead for me right now. lol

I'm actually having fun in this one. Medium pace doesn't get you killed and it's not a random boost fest.

Again, restart your PS4 if you can't connect to games.
 
8 hrs of download. Then saw pause restart trick. System update. Restart. Can't find a match. Almost got one then failed to host lobby. Tried to join a friend but was not joinable. Will try to restart once more. It's a Beta but damn
 
Thought I would try making a video on my impressions of the beta...turned out to be a lot longer than I thought haha. There is definitely a lot of promise in my opinion, but then again, I am not a hardcore CoD fan by any means. Feels like a better version of Advanced Warfare, which despite some of the criticisms, I still liked.

I'm not particularly good at the game or anything, but I did have one semi-decent match!

Beta serving it's purpose right now I'm OK with that, get this ironed out now rather than later. I Def feel like I'm getting two shotted at times, but then again first two weeks of blops2 was like that as well, they will figure it out
 
I guess it's normal that I can't even start the Beta right now? I get to "Press X" and then it fails with "Can't connect to Online Service" :/
 
I've been battling that ABCDEFG error since the beta started. Welcome to the party boys!

(Re-setting up my network connection through xmb menu has been fixing it for me... Until it happens again)

Isn't that what everyone says at the beginning? The question is, are you still going to like it after playing it for a couple of months.

When I first played AW I was liking it. I thought it had potential. But after I played it some more, it's issues became more apparent and I lost interest fast.

So I pre-ordered on Amazon and got a code.

Now the COD website keeps redirecting me to the login page. Once I got in to enter the code, but then it redirected me yet again to the login page.

If I just lost my code because of this shitty website, I'm gonna be pissed.

Are you in North America?
 
I click find match and literally can't find anything, I just sit there, it displays "searching for games" for a little, and then eventually that even disappears and NOTHING happens. Anyone else?

A lot of people would stop playing by February even if the game was really good. It's just how the CoD cycle goes.
 
Got tired closing and reopening applications just to be able to get into a match, so I went and beat witcher III. I'll probably come back when the whole matchmaking gets resolved.
