Level cap will be upped to 34, the map Stronghold and the gamemode Uplink will be added to the Beta at 10am PST (4 hours from now). They also announced in their Periscope stream that they are nerfing the Hellstorm missile and are making spawns easier to flip on Combine but I'm not sure if that is gonna make it into the Beta.

My brother said Hellstorm missile was over powered but I've used it like 6 or 7 times and only ever got like 4 or 5 kills total. But if people have already noticed it's OPness, then I'm sure it's true.

I'm mainly looking for bugs in the game, like the 'mute everyone not in your party' option doesn't stay on once I exit the game, it also doesn't if I leave and join lobbies.



Hmm, pie.

The general feeling is good as far I (sniper) am concerned : quickscope works OK, maps aren't that bad (Hunt is really convenient) and almost never have hitmarkers (even the semi-auto does OS). That said, I still have doubts on balance because AR and SMG can kill me faster than I can aim even at a distance so it kinda hurts my ratio. It's too fast-paced imo : characters run and jump at astonishing speed so it's not easy to hit.

The bow is neat, but tricky to use (fairly slow). 

You'd think they made it so snipers were closer to the Black Ops 1 way, in which you actually had to look down the scope or something and if you got show, flinching was exagerated because you are looking down a scope.

Scope-in feels definitely quicker than in BO1, so it's more dynamic. Problem is the maps : Hunt is quite OK, but the 3 in general aren't anything like the sniper-friendly maps we use to have in BO1&2. Let's wait and see what they have in store for the final product.

Are you using the Cluster Bombs with R2? I usually get 3 kills per Hellstorm that way.

Also yeah they're quite some bugs, which is to be expected of course. After playing some time my Paintshop camouflages aren't displayed anymore and I can't edited them.

This is the good thing about a Beta, we are and can test and play around and make sure this is noticed before release.

R2? What do you think I am an X-box gamer? I switched it from L2 and R2 to L1 and R1 as soon as I booted up the game. Triggers are on and off, not squishy.

Yeah I am, I have noticed, BO2 clusters actually used to track people a little, this doesn't seem to, maybe I'm just pushing it too early and therefore missing.

Yeah you are pushing it too early because cluster bombs definitely track players in BO3.

Send you an EU code

The new update is live. It contains Stronghold, Uplink and Level Cap raise.



poklane on 21 August 2015

Honestly, Rejack needs either a major nerf or should just be cut from the game entirely. Have you ever got annoyed by Final Stand or Last Stand? This shit will literally wanna make you throw your console out of the window.

Also, still got 2 European PS4 codes, enjoy whoever gets time: B9GH-H4NM-4T5A and ANR9-C9NF-TNG3

This snow map is pretty nice, many places to snipe from. Got it only once though :/

EDIT : oh, it's a new one. OK.
