CoD/Battlefield discussion thread

I've enjoyed my time with AW so far. Almost at 1st prestige.

I don't think I've encountered any issues (playing on xb1).

Advanced Warfare is a little faster paced than the older titles due to the boosts, double jumping, etc. I'd watch some videos of it if you haven't played a cod game since mw2.

Yeah I've seen videos. It looking different than the norm is what interests me. Though it's not as fast paced as Titanfall is it? That one was a bit too fast paced and arcade like for my tastes.

[Opa Opa]

I'm gonna say a little slower than Titanfall yet faster than normal CoD. There's no parkour stuff or anything like that. And the maps are nowhere near as big as Titanfall's. Honestly, this game has small maps if you take into account the exo suit stuff.

Did you ever get a chance to play Black Ops 2 at all? Advanced Warfare is like Blops 2 with double-jumping.

[Xeogred]

Nah, missed both Black Ops. Seems a lot of fans liked those the most.

Not sold on Hardline. And is the beta only for pre-orders? Bleh.

I really miss Black Ops 2

[casterofdreams]

I still enjoy Black Ops 2 on the Wii U of all consoles.

Still get matches and most of the online players focus on the core playlists.

I'm playing it on xb1 and didn't pre-order...

[Fragems]

The Beta for Hardline is apparently public didn't even get a email notice saying it had started but it's got a banner on the Origin store page. Downloading it right now.

Apparently the open beta is from the 3rd through the 8th.

Had a bang on some of Hardline earlier today. Was a bitch to download on 360 for some reason.

Overall thoughts: Not overly impressed.

Heist mode is confusing at first but after I few turns I started to feel it was a bit unbalanced against the robbers. The layout of the map is too busy and vertical as well.

The car stealing mode thing is fucking useless. Maybe it's the map but all you do is get in a car and drive it around in circles like a Benny Hill sketch. You may be shot at by people on the other team, you may not. My first attempt I finished top of the team with...0 kills! Fun!

Conquest is conquest expect without tanks and planes and anything else that makes Battlefield Battlefield. The grappling hooks are cool though.
