Probably because it's never really been any other way. I can't really take W/L seriously in COD. It's so entirely random.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 |OT| Late to the party
- Thread starter TheUnseenTheUnheard
- Start date
Primis characters (Dempsey, Richtofen, Takeo and Nikolai) are now available in Blackout (PS4 only maybe?). Challenge for Dempsey is pretty simple: pick up a Juggernog bottle, get a kill with any grenade and then finish the match with the Juggernog bottle in your inventory.
You get used to it, unfortunately.
That's PS4 exclusive for a week, I don't know about Seaside Sunset and Firing Range Night though.
Some of this exclusivity stuff is ridiculous, game modes and possibly day/night cycles?
Man NT 24/7 better never end. I havent played one second of anything else since it came to Xbox.
Nevermind, they took it out. Only a HC nuke town playlist now. Guess I won't be playing much this week
Ahhhhhh boooooo. I had so much fun over the last week. Oh well I guess Ill find something else to play till next time.
They finally posted about the update

For the next-gen (PS5 and Scarlett) they should just develop a system which chooses the time of day and weather type of each map before the match starts, that way you have different types of day for every map and different weather settings without the need to add them as a separate map. Would be pretty cool imo if you load into a map not knowing if it's gonna be day or night, or sunny or in the middle of the winter with snow.
That would be great. Blackout would benefit greatly from day/night/weather cycles as well.
I mean this is worse than ever but its been this way since like MW2.
Eh, I mostly agree except I think you should be able to see the time of day immediately so you could tweak your loadout.
Finished the RK7 headshots + bloodthirsties, that was rough. Wasn't too bad in the core nuketown if you got hardpoint or even dom, but I had to finish them off in HC nuketown... not fun, especially the bloodthirsties. You litterally get hitmarkers with the gun in hardcore, even at close range if you don't hit all 3 shots in the burst.
Haven't tried to do the camos yet, just leveled it up, but it was by far the worst gun in the game in my opinion. Thing just fucking sucks at killing people.
Anyone else getting really frequent audio clipping in Blackout? Just working out if it's my headphones, or internet or something.
Yup, agreed. The 24/7 nuketown playlist was good for headshots though. I would just spam flash bangs, and get 1/2 headshots usually per flash.
Agreed. Some people on PC melt with it, and I have no idea how. Everytime I use it, it's a hitmarker machine. Maybe the OP mod helps?
is theater mode broken? i'm so confused as i've just spent a few minutes trying to record following their control instructions but the record button doesn't seem to do anything. the controls also seem to stop working after awhile...lol
I like it. Dominant weapon in close ranges for minimum points as all it really needs is extended mags. Hopefully they fix Gung-Ho and the Spitfire will get even better.
I am enjoying the Hardcore Nuketown playlist and Hardcore in general a lot more with the Team Link perk. You see teammates through walls so if there's no blue in front of you, it's safe to fire! I wish I realized this earlier.
Blackout is so fucking great and I love it more now than I did a month ago. Honestly, if anyone here doesn't get the hype for this mode then watch Teeps here go 15 kills / 2600 damage with nothing but a Hades for the solo victory. I used to think this gun sucked balls but he makes it look so fucking easy. He's my favorite streamer in Blackout by far. And to really put his skill in perspective - he's playing on a fucking PS4 not on a PC. His aim is impeccable.
Match starts around 20 minutes in I think....

Have they mentioned anything about adding a way to instantly start matchmaking a new blackout match after dying? Its such a slog waiting for the game to reload to the menu and then rejoining every single time.
Going for the dark matter camo and I have the AR and SMGs done. Currently working on the LMGs. I don't use snipers very often (although I was decent at them in WW2) but the few times I used them I was beyond awful. I am talking like 4-20 using the paladin. I don't think I will be able to get gold on the sniper rifles.
Future update details from Vonderhaar's Twitter https://charlieintel.com/2018/11/28...4-blackout-more-levels-map-updates-and-camos/
- Blackout audio adjustments
- Weapon camos in Blackout
- More echelon levels in Blackout
- Map updates are happening, Vonderhaar has already played it
- Picking up pieces of armor to repair your own is in production, other changes planned as well
I wonder if they'll even do map packs, I'm expecting maps to drop 1 by 1. Don't see why they'd do map packs with everything being locked behind the Season Pass anyway, just release a new map once it's ready.
Thats cool to hear but i would leave Armor as it is. Everything else sounds good though.
Just do a 24/7 Playlist like Nuketown for a while, then add it to the regular rotation.
Having fun with a buddy in hardpoint. until some people are joining who arent playing the objective (surprise )
LOL, nice!
Haven't had the chance to mess with it yet.
There are 3 guns I think I will mess around more with in Blackout:
Spitfire
Auger
Hades
Spitfire is nasty up close.
Auger seems to hit hard but the kick on that can make it frustrating.
Hades just feels like a fun weapon to use.
I would still rank the ABR as the best weapon for Blackout. Fully equipped with a 4x scope is perfect. Might even carry around a 2x just in case for any up close fights.
Looking forward to those updated that were posted up. Hoping they are testing out a night version of Blackout. Or maybe even a winter theme with everything covered in snow. Ugh, the possibilities get me very excited.
If you're playing solo I'd suggest sticking to TDM, FFA or any other FFA-based game modes as objective modes tend to get very annoying very quickly because of teammates who don't give a shit about playing the objective.
