Anyone else struggling with Advanced Warfare???

How come I feel like I'm playing with a bunch of aimbotters?

Maybe you are.  Didn't it come out that it's just as hackable as previous CoD titles?

Haha... It actually really feels that way though when it takes five or six bullets to kill but every time you die it's insta death from some random headglitch you had no idea was there. But Mindworm is right the launch went pretty smooth compared to other launches but there's definitely something wierd going on with the netcode that needs tweaking.

Like when your in a lobby on pc and you just walk into a window or something and get insta melted by a blatant botter from across the map. It definitely reminds me of that on ps4 unfortunately.

The aim assist in this game is ridiculous.  It's a freaking lock-on which negates the point of being able to boost in the first place.  Add to that whatever the hell is going on with the ps4 version and I am just about done with the game on ps4.  Enjoying the experience much more on the xboxone.

Personally I've been playing it on the 360, tried core and it was just annoying getting hit markers then getting dropped. Went into Hardcore and it's so much fun now. If you use the exo suit right you can do some real damage. Because you kill them so fast it's easier, yes you also die faster but like I said if you learn to use the exo suit and move as much as possible it's so hard to get hit. Also the Smgs on Hardcore are very viable unlike on core. Give it a try sure if you don't like it go back to core I was never a hardcore player myself until now.

Stock and quick draw is essential.

If you aren't using those 2 attachments you may as well bend over and take it.


edit: Also bal is the best gun in the game. Use it while you can until it gets nerfed. Using anything else is just a disadvantage, especially smg's.

Though I hear adding an extra ~250 ms to your connection fixes hit detection and all that like people used to do in MW3... I'll try it in a bit

How do you "add" 250 ms to your connection??

That doesn't help anything besides maybe getting you out of having to be host.

The first 25 games for me were pretty frustrating.. The first 10 games I was .5kd.. I was getting @#$% on by everyone and their mom. It really takes some time to get used to. Aiming mechanics feel very different from ghosts, and cooooompletely different from Destiny, which is the only game I've been playing since September. Though after the first couple hours of playing I got used to how the game feels, and actually really like it. I haven't gotten to play too much cause of work, but my last 10 games averaged 3 or 4kd. I'm going to have to play maaany games to fix the nasty KDs I was getting as I learned the mechanics and map layouts. Omg it's nice to play in 60fps again..


Lol, when I went into a private match to initially set up my XIM settings, I had forgotten to set the game sensitivity to max. I was thinking, holy cow, this is completely unplayable. This is 50x worse than Destiny aiming. I had hip at like 600 in xim manager, and ads 250. And then it hit me 


Give it time. Your brain will adjust to the new mechanics, and you will gain better awareness on each map

I bought my xim4 when ghosts was out, and it was a MASSIVE improvement to my game.  It basically was borderline unfair against gamepad players.

With advanced warfare, not the case due to the design of the game.  Aiming in this game is like swimming in oatmeal, and they pretty much aim for you if you get your cursor close on the gamepad.  They were forced to overcompensate because they broke cod with these dumb jetpacks.

xim4 has put me on another level in destiny pvp and in ghosts, the product is fantastic, the problem is advanced warfare is some strange socialist experiment to force everyone into a 1.0 kdr so nodoby gets there feelings hurt.

Wait for Trey to make a real cod game, where players actually have to aim and land their own shots, and there is some semblance of map control and strategy, and we will be back to destroying again. 

ps, its bs that it takes time to adjust, aw is just a lousy cod game.

[BrianDee]

Agree with Petey87.    The lame skill based matchmaking and exo jumping allover means there is no flow to where enemies will be.  its one big random shooting/camping game.  this is the first COD that i have actually not liked. I mostly rush and have had 2 + or - KDR in previous games.  This one I am barely above 1.0.   I don't play any different, i rush and that's how i like to play.  Just kinda MEHH game for me this go around.

SBMM ruined the game for a lot of people. No one cares about competitive cod, maybe 1% of players (if that) really have a soft spot for such a thing, but most people just laugh at something like that. Especially casual gamers like 99.9% of cod players. SKMM is just a spin off of competitive gaming which completely lacks any team work.

If you're playing with people at your skill level, with no communication you simply wont enjoy yourself. With no team work to keep you interested, what's the point? I played 20 hours, quit, never played again, don't see that changing any time soon. I used to put about 20+ days into cod, bo1 was the last cod I played extensively. They seem to do a good job of making the game worse each year.

we need a remake of cod4 and waw . mw2 was allright also if you took out the noob tubes. If they remake those games for the new consoles then i will be happy . Right now all shooters out are garbage, havent tried that halo anniversary yet

A small number of people may in fact play competitive cod, but the viewership and support it has is actually pretty good considering the lack of dev support and it primarily being a casual game with casual game mechanics.

Granted, not quite as much as CS or any of the mobas. Still noteworthy though. (I'm a big fan of CS too, I actually play it more than cod these days.  So I'm not trying to hate)

By the way I'm not saying this as an excuse for the SBMM, personally I don't think it should be in pubs either.

Remake of the original 2003 game would be better; no health regen, quick scoping, killstreaks, etc.

[MrSir]

the skill based crap ruined AW for me, constantly going against 1.5+kd players you can clearly see how broken/ unfair/unbalanced the core gameplay is (xxXquicksc0perzXxx too) , plus lag/netcode and a more linear and cramped map design made for controller players , compared to maps like cod 4 and waw even mw2
