Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® |OT| No Russian To Buy Lootboxes

No, it works something like this:
1000xp = 1%
1 minute in-game time = 1%
The amount needed to rank up never changes. However, with double XP, you're earning twice as many points, so it's safe to say that if you're a decent slayer and PTFO, you'll progress a decent bit faster. Not as fast as double tiers, but still faster than regular.
Exactly and I just do not understand why this game has gone from like 120gb to 164gb when all they added are cosmetics and a few maps. What the hell is going on over at IW. Their anti-theft encryption gone nuts? How is a call of duty game the largest game I own? And why have they taken literally zero convenience steps... like separating multiplayer for instance.
I hope that when they add the eventual Battle Royale mode folks don't need to download that much more because they've been slowly downloading the map through the new Spec Ops missions
The game will be over 200Gb when the battle royale ships.
it really is a joke.
even MW:R is like 90Gb....I mean seriously?

SBMM or not, lobbies get suuuper sweaty on weekends. I am not really good to begin with but I totally suck ass on weekends. When you play with players that are equally bad as you, you probably end up with much more campers I believe. You know, people that die a lot and tend to hang back in one location rather than running and gunning. Yesterday was the first time I had to stop playing because it wasn't fun anymore and I even got kinda angry.
Always been the way with CoD. I find the same thing too historically. Double XP weekends get sweaty as well, and so does late night gaming sessions 11pm onwards, my most enjoyable games are during the day. Daytime weekend sessions aren't too bad either.
As we move into the next gen and 4K becomes a more common native display resolution, you should expect to see high-res textures follow suit. My understanding is that high bitrate audio already takes up a decent amount of a game's install size, but textures are the real meat. Hell, the 4K texture packs for games like Fallout 4 and Rainbow 6 Siege basically double the install size, and those are in older games where it's optional to use those high-res textures.
Yeah, we don't have those options on PC, it's just crossplay enabled or disabled. I play quite a bit and I get matched up with controller users on console almost every match. And honestly, I'm not really that big of a fan. Aim assist is just way too strong. It turns their guns into flippin lasers. If I turn it off though, then I wait forever to get matches.

They are only really annoying on Shipment.
and there pretty much everything is annoying
FWIW we have a decent sized office in Melbourne these days. Based on Slack convos they all seem out of the way of harm but it's something we're always thinking about.
When I was working out of Treyarch I remember driving north on the 2 one night to my place in Montrose, and a line of flame all along the Verdugo Hills to the west. Pretty powerful visual that's stayed with me.
Hope everyone stays safe wherever they are.
So, once you reach level 155 there really is nothing to do is there? What I'm I supposed to do. Play the game for fun or something?
Lol incredible. Do you need a carrot in your face to keep playing?
I think they were just asking if there was more to unlock....
You can grind for camos, work on missions, get tiers on the battle pass, or like you said, play the game for fun.
It was said partly in jest. I'm just not used to playing COD without the numbers going up. Strange feeling.
lol shipment is so aggressively terrible that im enjoying how bad it is. At least it's an interesting kid of awful.
Missions would be the only thing you'd lose out on by not waiting and frankly they don't offer shit for XP.
Like even the really big ones offer less than a match worth of XP.
I guess sure, if you are really that into how fat you can get to 155, but the difference would be negligible.
This is a nice gesture but they're asking $20 for that bundle. It's an absurd price.
Dunno if you folks were watching Drift0r's Mixer stream, but he hopped into a match of shipment and was spawn killed nearly a dozen times in a row. The rant that followed was pretty amazing, and his tweets capture a mere microcosm of the anger he was displaying.
Frankly, I totally understand. It's hands-down one of, if not the worst Call of Duty maps in the franchise history, in a game with several contenders for series' worst (Picadilly and Rammaza being my personal most-hated aside from Shipment 2019).

I am with that Drift0r dude when it comes to shipment. I am all for chaotic maps and stupid fun but as I said before, shipment comes close to the one custom Doom (or was it Half Life) map I remember which was just a big square where 10+ people would spawn in with rocket launchers.
Also: When you play against people on console and you see in the kill feed how insane the snap to target aim assist is... wow.

Hmmm I've played nothing but shipment for a week. I've really enjoyed the chaos, and racking up bunches of kills and xp.
I'm probably not the "norm" though.

I know that this is what gaming has become these days but when I buy the battle pass with real money, it should stay for me to unlock forever. 100 levels is bad enough but when I spend the 10 bucks I should be able to work on it indefinitely. And if I buy the next one I should be able to work on both. You already have my money... what the hell. In the end I don't spend anything at all because of that stupid mechanic. It should be illegal for them to remove it after I bought it imho. It is consumer unfriendly as it gets.
After MS took their 30% cut.
if you seriously want to support the issues there are better ways to donate.
the red cross disaster relieve or the cfa firefighters for example.
obviously it's better than nothing and you get something as well. I wouldn't buy it just to support though.
Tried the coop missions for the first time yesterday and they're petty fun if a little bit absurd. One of them is a bank heist type thing and at one point you literally get a never ending stream of suicide bombers until you find something in the vault. It felt like I was playing Left 4 Dead lol.
I unlocked a couple of cool operators and calling cards.

Same.
It's just stupid fun and helps extremely to max out the battle pass and the officer ranks. Thanks to Shipment and 2XP I did 10 battle pass tiers since friday. More to come today...
Hold melee while behind an enemy.
But I think the game counts another action also as a take down? Earlier today I did the challenges with Wyatt and after a couple of games I had the challenge done where you have to do 2 finishing moves but I didn't do them...
Getting mad at being spawn killed in Shipment is like getting mad someone bumps into you in a packed club.
Don't be dumb, Shipment isn't a real map.

Oh, it's real alright. Real bad.
I enjoy smaller maps sometimes, and Shoot House is a example of a great smaller map. Shipment is not that. It's a tiny map that should never be used for anything beyond 2 vs 2 matches. 6 v 6 on that map is just a cluster fuck and I'm shocked Infinity Ward ever thought it should be used for 6 v 6.
Sure, and that's great. The price for most of these cosmetic packs is insane though. 1/3 the price of the entire game for some skins and trinkets? No thanks.
You know what I like picadilly. It's big enough to run around without being killed in 5 seconds and makes alot of the overhead killstreaks easier to deal with since there is cover. It's the opposite of the maps from BLOPS4 which is great because that game was fucking garbage
Wow, thanks for the 15 minute double xp pass that still counts down when I'm not in a match. Life changing.
I thought it's basically just time based and therefor shouldn't be affected by the xp boost?
Piccadilly is actually one of the best maps in the game for S&D. I can't say I enjoy it on any other modes though.
