Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Beta Thread | PS4 Weekend
- Thread starter Eggbok
- Start date
Nice, nice.
Yea it's gonna suck to wait for next weekend but oh well. This sounds great.It's definitely more grounded at the moment. There are wall run spots.....but you don't need to jump for the most part to get to most places. You will see people on top of objects but you are really exposed when doing so. A lot of indoor areas to fuck people over with. Test it yourself etta come Xbox one beta
Boost sliding is still there.....but the folks jumping like idiots will be the first ones to drop by most players

I'm actually liking it much better then Black Ops 3 so far.
In all honesty, this actual feels much more similar to the Modern Warfare games. It's not all about sprinting and moving fast all the time like in AW and BO3. Sometimes the best approach is to hold down a position and listen for enemy movement.

No wonder why they bundled MWR with this. Feels rigid as shit.

Played about 3-4 matches on each map. My thoughts so far.
Throwback is an amazing map. Frost is pretty decent except it has bad spawns. Frontier is flat out garbage, just trash, shouldn't have made the cut, the layout is so horrible and all over the place, can't believe someone got paid to do this shit, lol.
The movement feels nice but also feels like the full on parkour elements don't need to be here, at least for these maps, the wall running seems useless, balance feels pretty good, TTK is a little low for my liking but will adjust.
The RIGS are pretty meh. I wasn't a fan of them in blops 3, and they are less inspired here.
Visually I think it's alright, I don't know why people are saying it looks much worse than blops3, it doesn't. But it looks a lot worse than AW which is the best looking COD to date.
Overall, it's not bad. We'll see how the full game plays. Can't be worse than Ghosts right? lol
This game feels kind of dated, but not in a bad way. It feels more like old COD games, pre AW. With the new movement system. Which isn't a bad thing.

It's a good map in Domination.
Thanks, man.
Yes. PS4 and XBO next weekend.
Check your PM
Pretty much. People need to actually check the number stats. MW2 guns have some of the fastest TTK in the series, especially with Stopping Power. It just doesn't feel that way cause the hit detection/lag is garbage when compared to Ghosts.

Exactly my thoughts. This series has passed me by.

Right on d-pad, up/down to select a different scorestreak if you have multiple available.
I'm not really feeling much love for IW after 2 hours. I really do enjoy black ops 3, casually, hit rank 4 prestige or so but kinda stopped playing after Overwatch although I still pop in every now and then. BO3 feels smooth and you can shift from one "move" to another nicely, and you have a good sense of whats going on around you.
It didn't feel smooth at all in IW, although it felt very similar to BO3 but just not... as good. I dunno, maybe I just don't know the maps or something and it'll get better once I do. The class visuals / powers / descriptions also looked extremely weak compared to BO3.
By contrast I loved every second I was in battlefield 1, even though I was dying non stop in both. So far first impressions are BF1 is amazing, IW is a step below everything else. I am not cancelling or anything, gonna enjoy the SP campaign, MW4, and try to fit in some multiplayer but expectations heavily lowered at this point.

I thought the same until I watched pwnstarz.
Top level skill still looks like black ops 3.
Finally got a few matches in. This beta is truly miserable. Maps aren't great, mostly just corridors that are hard to distinguish and not really suited to the movement system. Movement is the same as Black Ops 3, making it feel like an add-on for that game. Weapons feel uninspired, just "future-er" versions of previous ones. Graphics also look much, much worse than previous COD games this gen. Advanced Warfare still looks the best.
From a purely graphics point of view based on the beta this is not a pretty game. The map with the ice looks like a last gen game to me and the art style of the map with a train or tunnel or whatever is downright ugly. Ghosts was a nice looking game so this has been disappointing.
Oh and the floating bodies in the space map. Who thought that was a good idea?

I don't think it's as bad as a lot of people think it is but this definitely feels the weakest of the three real current-gen COD's. I'd say BO3 is still the best, followed by AW, and then this lagging hard behind AW. BO3 is a hard follow-up, at least for me personally. It just felt like the most balanced COD game in a while (which I'd imagine is not a thing most people want out of this series lol) and the most well polished of bunch.

Trying to connect with downloading an update. Am I the only one?
I managed to DL the update but haven't been able to connect since I did.
You're already on my FL. Think I'm going to go play VR or something for a bit. Invite me when you get back and we'll see if I can actually connect to a match.

I know the TTK needs to be adjust, but what the fuck is up with the health regeneration. I feel like I'm playing Hardcore TDM, not regular.

getting killed by people jumping around corners is so goddamn annoying, flashbacks of AW

Is the matchmaking still borked? Haven't been able to get into a game.
I'm not sure what is up with all the graphics hate, it looks really nice if you ask me!
The maps are very small and less reliant on wall-running then they are in BLOPS3. Some people will see that as a positive some as a negative.
So far my only REAL complaint is that the "hit the target" feedback sound and vibration needs to be turned WAY up. I can barely even tell when I hit my target.

It's fine once you turn the film grain off in the options.

This game is hilarious. You can gesture and hip fire at the same time.
