J4MES OX4D 10,022 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Apparently there is going to be a new game mode/playlist called Heavy Duty where players have increased health. I don't know if it is a playlist incorporating the existing modes or whether it's a new mode altogether acting as a moshpit. Can't see this being a winner really. You may die quick in Ghosts but you can kill easily too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectre 633 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 It's a winner for me, because of my playstyle. I like to snipe for headshots only. If I have at least a fighting chance (more health) it might counteract the "insta-deaths" that I get reguarly. Keep calm and question nothing.

spectre 633 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I would hope not, it should still be a OHK to the head with the way the multipliers work. We'll have to see how much extra health their is though. Keep calm and question nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stretch616 697 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Sounds good to me. When using the shield it pisses me off so much getting a insta-death when somebody puts 2 bullets into my feet. I think this mode will be pretty popular as most people's complaints (bar spawns) relate to the TTK spectre 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectre 633 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Even if its just, "everyone spawns with ballistic vest" - that would be better than what it is right now in core. Keep calm and question nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnfitbillyboy 505 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Stretch did you know in hardcore the shield is one hit kill and you have more health than everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stretch616 697 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Stretch did you know in hardcore the shield is one hit kill and you have more health than everyone else.One hit kill - yesMore health though is interesting to know though. Is that confirmed anywhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnfitbillyboy 505 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Just from personal experience I get alot more hit markers on shielders, maybe it's just so they have a more fighting chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stretch616 697 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 I thought sometimes that you got hitmarkers when shooting the shield. It certainly doesn't feel like extra health! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnfitbillyboy 505 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Hmmm maybe you're right but sometimes I shoot them in the back and they take more damage than anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen11 51 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 They do have more health imo. I mentioned it to Tam and he sounded like he thought I was mental. Cant just be in my head now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen11 51 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 On topic, this game mode sounds all kinds of shit. J4MES OX4D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J4MES OX4D 10,022 Posted December 23, 2013 Author Share Posted December 23, 2013 Heavy Duty is live with TDM, DOM and Blitz being part of the HD Moshpit. Will be interesting to see thoughts on how noticeable the health increase is. If it's anything like Painkiller in MW2, Ghosts can get stuffed like my turkey this Christmas!

spectre 633 Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Didn't notice a difference on Sniper Rifles. Heavy Duty mode not for Sniping. I dont even think headshots are one hit kills. I played several games and never got a "headshot" notification. Keep calm and question nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playertd 177 Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Not sure if it was a hack or glitch, but a lot of people started using it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only saw this happen in hack videos posted online so it is most likely a god-mode hack or something but IW probably didn't want to admit their game had been hacked so they just said they fixed the 'exploit' lol!
