Thank you soooo much dude!! 2015 is starting off well

Oh trust me i fully supprt the whole not making it easy to get streaks, there should be a skill gap in order to sort the good from the bad. The spawns are what get me most of the time. I just cant predict where they may spawn, even if it is way away from me. Take for example the game i was just in KC on retreat. So ive boosted up onto the top of the platform with the half white arch and quickly pick off two people. These two people then proceed to be spawned immediately behind me on the ground at the bottom of the arch. All they had to do was quickly look up and shoot me in the back, and this all occurs within 5secs. They could have been spawned anywhere on the map, and they should of been spawned near their teammates on the other side but no, they were spawned in amongst my team mates and as a result 4 of us went down. Just massively frustrating Like I say, a lot of these videos being pumped out by 'Pubstompers" are a result of reserve boosting their accounts in order to get into lobbies with people of minimal skill (thanks SBMM...), and as a result people arent impressed. I would rather watch Scump or the MOJ who go ham in lobbies that they havent reserve boosted to get into.

Lol the jumping around does me in so much and when i try it my guy end up staring at the ground like "OOOoooo theres a penny" I do think the SBMM is making it difficult to find a decent lobby seeing as everyone in the lobbies i get into are trying their absolute balls off just to go positive. You watch some YT's who have reverse boosted (should be banned for that BTW) and the enemies they have got seem to have no thumbs whatsoever

So I truly believe that this is going to be the first CoD where a big killstreak like this is available, and I wont be able to get it MW2 Nukes - Harriers, Chopper gunner, Nuke = Piece of piss MW3 MOAB - Either Assault or Specialist didnt matter which one still fairly easy + running round like Arnie on steroids with every perk available made it a lot of fun despite the issues with the game. BO2 Nuclear medal - Not a killstreak i know but still fairly impressive so deserves a mention. Once I understood the game and spawns a lot more this one was becoming more regular towards the mid/end of BO2 Ghosts KEM - Load up on perks and away you go. Again control the spawns + good map positioning and away you go. This game tho i am completely lost. I havent seen anybody get one in game and ive played a large number of games now. I havent seen anybody get even vaguely close! I cant seem to predict spawns, I cant hear anybody running around (which inevitably means my guy gets fisted on multiple occasions), I am really struggling to get anything going So has anybody got close? My current killstreak is 17!

Not so much of a rant but RELOAD notification Is it just me but does this thing come on far waaaayyy to early when you are using up your bullets? I seem to be always reloading just because it is ingrained in my head that it means i am low on bullets and, especially in this game, i get caught short when i come up against an enemy and my guy is still reloading.

Mine to!

Happy new year people! Aim for 2015: Sort my happiness levels out

Ok so I know this is a long way off but I thought I would get some opinions. So the Exo movement is a big part of this game and has given a new dynamic to the game with the range of movement and also map design to take advantage of this. There are various positive and negative points to it being in the game, but do you think Exo movement should return in the next CoD instalment?

Apparently the Ameli (specifically the Subverter i think) is an absolute tank of a weapon for an LMG. If you dont mind being the speed of Stephen Hawking in a foot race then its a great defensive weapon to keep people off capture points/cut offs etc

Right so I am looking to get a new router to replace the Technicolor piece of shit that PlusNet sent me many moons ago when I got the fibre goodness. Now i really dont have any clue as to what im looking for in a router other then turning me into an online warrior would be a great benefit. Everyman and his dog likes to connect to our internet when they turn up at the flat so would I safely assume that I need something that prioritises traffic? Price range would be up to £50 but could go higher if there is something amazing out there that costs a little more. So over to you ladies and gentleman, suggest away please

After finally getting getting the elusive BAL Obsidian Steed in a care package, equipping it and promptly ripping face (54-6 thank you very much ), it made me thing about what variations of the multiple weapons do you enjoy using the most/have turned you from a pre surgery Captain America (shooting marshmallows) to a highly trained terroriser of the enemy? Mine would probably be: BAL Obsidian Steed - Slap the grip, quickdraw and stock on it and Leeroy Jenkins it to your hearts content. Alternatively if you are more defensive pop extended mags on and blast away. HBRa3 Insanity - I cant get this gun to work (connection issues nullifying the initial 3 round burst) but i have seen people put up huge numbers using this thing. ASM1 Magnitude - The +2 range turns this thing into a mini assault rifle with all the positives of an SMG in CQB I just have to say i am really enjoying the crates and different weapon variations that you have to try and collect. Gives you something else to work towards

Right so we've recently had a big patch to AW and its brought about a few more points: Skill based match making: Why the f*ck is this still being used to determine what lobby you get put into?? I have been placed against people on the other side of the world just because my skill level is similar to theres. This results in unplayable matches full of constant bullsh*ttery and moments that make you want to punch your way through walls like the Hulk after stepping on an upturned plug. Keep the SBMM for the competitive side Sledgehammer, but for the love of God take it out of pubs. Don't get me wrong, I love a competitive match, and as some of the FG boys have seen when I played with them recently, I can still put up decent numbers even on a bad connection, but getting shafted time after time after time by some PS4/F/A/ MLG wannabe dipsh*t on a wanky connection is putting a lot of people off of this game. Spawns: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKK! Getting arse shafted by Mandingo is surely going to hurt even the most seasoned pornstar, but the spawns in TDM in particular take it to a whole other world of pain and frustration. Being prepared to die for a second time, precisely one nano second after spawning from a previous death, should be almost expected in this game at this point. Slaying 5 enemies in 2 seconds may make you feel like Scumpii mixed with Crimsix but to then get destroyed by three of the same people you just killed, spawning directly behind you, so close that you can feel the tip of his (inevitably) BAL ramming itself inside your anus is a cause for concern in fairplay by Sledgehammer. There are many videos out there on the YouFace Sledgehammer, are you telling me you have never seen them and that the spawns are fine??? Get fucked you cu... System Hack: FUCK!!!!!!!!!! MY EYESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!! Fuck this f*cking f*ckerdy f*ck piece of fu*ck... SMGs: They are more viable now. Thanks Sledgehammer

Thank you, thank you! Luckily I was in a fairly good mood, and had a few relaxing bottles of cider (Stella Rasberry FTW) before that happened otherwise I would have spiked my controller through my floorboards... Absolute bullsh*t!...

Right I think we should really have one of those set up and stickied for each Call of Duty that comes out ready for the inevitable rants!! Either way Im going to lead off... As it stands at this moment in Advanced Warfares life cycle i am developing a huge amount of hatred for many aspects of this game and in all truthfullness it really shouldnt be this way with a franchise that i have loved for many years. So lts get to it: Connection - This has been the bane of my life throughout multiple call of duties ever since MW2. In AW this has been especially bad and right now it is making the game nigh on unplayable for me. I have 75/20 with 5 ping, how the f*ck are they still giving it to some person in the middle of dipshitville playing on something that is clearly being powered by a hamster in a f*cking ball via A PIECE OF F*CKING STRING!!!!!!! When 11 out of 12 people are having to jump over the same f*cking gap 5 times in a f*cking row before it registers there is clearly something wrong Sledgehammer!!! And dont even get me f*cking started on the whole "I shot him with my entire clip and i still f*cking die!!"... I could write an entire encyclopaedia and make 3 feature length films with the things that have happened to me in this game Connection Bars - Did Sledgehammer just put these in for a laugh at all us peasants? Dont tell me i have 4 bars of connectivity when it is clear the entire lobby is taking paart in their own version of the Jumper movie. System Hack - This is single handedly the most annoying score streak in AW right now. Its role in the game i can appreciate, but what i cant stand is the bullshit that it generates on screen as some sort of visual impairment. The multiple flashes and weird 3d effect really messes up my eyes and after repeated SH i actually feel rather unwell. And then once you die you have to suffer it all over again...YAY!!!.... Gun balance - This one im willing to forgive...as long as they sort this out soon. Playing in lobby after lobby of everyone, team mates and enemies, using the BAL is just slightly disappointing. SMG's still feel like they get dominated up close compared to a BAL and the range drops off far too quick resulting in a full clip of nothing but disappointment. TL DR - SMG's need a slight buff and the BAL needs a nerf/other AR's need a buff. Teammates WHAT PART OF PLAY THE F*CKING OBJECTIVE ARE YOU STRUGGLING WITH YOU SPASTICATED PIECE OF PIGEON SHIT FOR BRAINS DUMB MOTHERFUCKER!!! Bloodshed Helmet - Seriously fuck off! I dont give a shit about this piece of wank. I have already collected it (about 63 trillion times at last count) and never want to see it again. Only show me stuff that i have never unlocked before please! Sounds (or lack of) - So I can hear Captain Dipshit shooting his weapon on the other side of the map, GREAT. But can i hear his friend Rapey Joe running behind me to turn me into a human kebab, CAN I F*CK!! There really is little point to that Exo Mute ability when this game has turned elephants into f*cking Ballerinas mixed with SAS sneakiness. and breath... (until i can think of some more...) ​

This sort of shit has been really getting to me recently. I really cant see any reason for why this happened...

Exactly the same! First couple of games this morning were great and i posted some decent scores. However for me since that good start to the day, i got on it again, and its atrocious with the lag The bars said everybody in the lobby had 4 bars but when it takes me 5 attempts to get out of the window without being teleported back in theres something clearly not right especially in the last hour or so. Just really frustrating atm because there doesnt seem to be a constant

The lag is the biggest issue for me right now. Th amount of blink and you're dead moments is a frustratingly regular occurrence especially when the kill cam makes you look an idiot. Its frustrating to have one game where everything goes well and then the very next game you are struggling to get a kill no matter what you do. The other issue i have is SMG's. Yes i will admit that they should only really have the advantage in CQB but im getting decimated at all ranges by the BAL and AK. I really dont see the benefit of running it atm until its tweaked slightly

You to man! Its good to finally get to play with a number of you guys from the forum Aww man the connection was up and down more times then a stripper on a pole. ITs stupidly frustrating going from one game where you can drop someone in 5 bullets and then have the next game where you emptying all your bullets and get nothing. The arm on my sofa has taking a pounding thanks to the playstyle of some people on this game...

Those were some good matches tonight boys!! Sorry I had to go but it was a hell of a lot more enjoyable then trying to play AW solo! Couple of those matches were naff as hell it seemed when we kept getting slaughtered and unable to break from our base. Seemed like the connection was all over the place for all of us!

Jeesus christ playing in TDM is just like being Sasha Grey. You are going to get continually fucked in the arse You cannot run around because you will have constant enemies spawning staring at your back or the more frustrating thing is everybody huddling in a corner ADS'ing the fucking doorway like a fucking prick all day. The TTK feels absolutely no different for the enemies shooting me (0-dead in one fucking nano second) yet for me its still: empty every bullet with the resultant 100 hitmarkers, ram a grenade down his throat, give his character a right punt in the old meat and two veg, shag his missus, insult his mother, scorn at his childhood achievements and he will still stroll off like absolutely nothing happened...

Thanks boys I have to say if there was something i was going to complain about, its that. Its extremely distracting and the size font they have used is ridiculous for a chat notification. Just seems like something they mocked up in development and then just forgot about it. Hopefully they can fix that *fingers crossed*

Fucking piece of shit!!! I started my first attack and after 10secs it kicked me out just as i put down my giants. So thats another fucking waste of an attack!! I cant even get onto the server at the moment as it refuses to get past the loading screen despite almost filling the bar for completion. How long is left of the war? I might run into Tesco and use their free wifi if i have enough time at lunch

Heres my first game effort (on my new YT page as well so go subscribe ) I did not have an effing clue as to what i was doing, and the controls felt so weird!!

I should be on when i get back tonight after work and whilst AW is installing. What are our chances like in this war?
