I have Game Pass. Will probably give it a try.  I tend to like the round based zombie anyway

You don't seem to be factoring skins and passes. At $29 for a stupid skin or $40 for a battlepass 6 times a year, you can give the game away and still make money. The number of skins I run into playing tells me that plenty of people are willing to shell out money for cosmetics. I got to admit that "teletubies" skin is pretty enticing. Shoot Nicki Minaj or Snoop in the face and then get to tea bag them as Grimace/Teletubies it totally worth the $30
 

Or maybe this a way to hide the disaster that was the last black ops cold war.  They figure if they give it away as part of game pass no one can see the sales figure. Knowing that it's a "cold war" Cod is already a pass for me. They never ran well and I never did enjoy them the way I do the MW ones

I think this is misunderstood. You need to buy a set of skins which will cost you 9600 CoD points. They are 2400 CoD points each. If you buy them all you get the glove. So you're not really buying a glove for 9600 Cod points but you kind of are. 
 
Personally I would never do that. I don't bother with purchased skins or blackcell.
 
However people should be clear that they aren't charging $80 for a single item.   I don't understand why someone for pay $15 for a skin, but I tend to not comment about what people should do with their own money

I prefer to have the ACS to hold/capture objectives. Same with the trophy.  I will use one vs the other depending on the team I have. If I am a team that doesn't play the objective I use the ACS as that is like having a team mate caping and I can move onto the next objective. 
 
So yah the gloves are essential.  If you camp however, they are useless. You got to move around and pick up that ammo
 
I would think with SND you would want the trophy so that you can plant the bomb without worrying about being grenade or RPGed

Depends on map and game mode for me
 
Something like TDM I use the MCW or BAS-P depending on the size of the map.  BAS-P for longer range. I use the Assasin Vest in that case
Something like  DOM/Hardpoint is use the MCW or Rival 9.  I use the engineer vest with tac mask + EOD + ACS  or demo vest with 2 letals which depend on map (claymore vs semtex for exampe or drill charge)
Something like  KC is use Rival 9 and combat knife with the coms vest 
 
On maps like wasteland, estate, rundown I switch to the KATT-AMR sniper
 
All my classes use the scavenger gloves
 
Mostly use the ACS or trophy system 
 
I run UAV, Counter UAV, Sentry for KS

Half-life + opposing force + blue shift
 
Change the script around a bit. Improve MP and you have a wonderful game

What's your setup? I use to love Maraton + commando + lightweight + tac knife to enrage people. It's the only nuke I ever got on MW2. Got it on the quary map.  Might be fun to run something similar again
 
 

Yah, I was working for ATI at the time and playing games on the Graphic cards that I designed was part of the job description.  I remember us doing all sorts of stuff to get it to work on the MACH32 
 
That really makes me feel old

There was monetization with the DMZ "pay to win" skins. It's too because I really liked the mode. What they did with it is they turned it into Zombies which I play as well and it is enjoyable. Main difference is that there is no PvP but you can squad up in order to get a 6 man team going. Will see how that goes for battlepass progression. T

Will keep that in mind thanks. Tac stance is a pain in the ass. I find it's a great way to get yourself killed rather than being an asset
 
Meat is turning out to be a great map for me.

I don't know. Most people seem to favor Rust, Shipment and highrise. It's not like you won't know where they are. Also I tend to use thermal sights on almost everything so it's relatively easy to spot them.
 
Most people don't even seem to bother with UAVs. The SAM KS takes them down in no time. The skulls might be missed a little. 
 
I think I am going on 8 hours and there are still maps that I gave yet to play because everyone always picks the same ones

Coming back to this, the issue was a non issue in my opinion. I am already done with all the unlocks and its not Christmas yet
 
Did it by playing MP and getting the 3 challenges done. Also winning games. My w/l ratio is about 1.5 so not bad but not stellar either
               playing Zombies (that's good for another 3 challenges) and doing contracts. Contracts count like wins. If you got a squad and play well you can do 8-10 contracts in one game
               playing Zombies and extacting gear and guns which means you don't have to use points for the unlocks. That's how I got all of my lethals and tactical unlocks as well as a number of guns. I had the MCW when I was at level 6 for examples. That's a default gun in Zombies. All I had to do is jump into the game and extract. Took less than 5 minutes. 
 
 
When I checked I had about 6.5 hours of game play in MP and was level 55. At 11 hours I had everything unlocked.  Hardly worth a rant
