The special orders don't expire right? I haven't had time to even finished the Sten one.
Have to go against the grain of the last page or so.. I'm really enjoying this game. Like, a lot.
It could be the setting and time period, which I'm a total sucker for. Or it could be that I've stopped buying COD annually - this being the only one I've played much of this gen other than Advanced Warfare - so maybe I've become casual enough to bypass some of the flaws. But I'm having a great time with both the campaign and the multiplayer.
I agree with those who say the campaign is very by the books and cliche, but I've found all the missions I've played so far pretty fun and I'm engaged enough with the story they're telling, even if we've seen a lot of it before. It looks absolutely spectacular and some weird bombast aside (such as the laughable train bit and the underwhelming D-Day landing) I think the atmosphere and tone is pretty good. For what it is this is easily one of the more enjoyable COD campaigns to me.
Agreed all around. Plus the challenges and contracts help a lot of the more quickly abandoned playlists stay populated. I really like that.They did a really great job with the Winter Siege.
HQ has a nice little christmas party theme going on.
There are lots of challenges to do that let you win a winter drop, and they aren't that hard. Keeps me going for them. With all the talk about loot boxes, I like the system in this game. I don't spend a single dime and can still get rewards frequently. I'm never frustrated by their presence.
Winter Carentan is great!
Just quoting this post to say how great it is.I was disappointed by the lack of licensed period music in the game, so I put together a playlist of tracks that I play in the background.
If you want to do the same, these albums are a good starting point:
Various Artists / World War II Radio Hits
Glenn Miller / Greatest Hits of World War II
You're also going to want Andrews Sisters / Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy
Side note: AirServer on Xbox One is a godsend — it'll let you stream whatever music you want in the background via AirPlay/Chromecast. I use it with Play Music and it works great.

Melee class in a FPS lolTried again with carentan, there is no doubt in my mind that its a very poor map, especially compared to things like Fringe or Infection from BO3. They seem to have used 2 templates, small and 3 lanes, or random ass clusterfuck with no flow. Nothing inbetween.
Oh and the gun raising is still so slow. So you add the gunslinger basic to let you shoot and run, but it doesnt speed up your normal walking into shooting speed. Theres just no freedom in these classes. You make a melee class with serrated but you cant run anywhere because you need the increase run stamina basic too. Its a mess.
Come on, now.
The melee stuff has no place in FPS. Please tell me you didn't use Lightweight Marathon Commando.
More the "learn to aim" part. No need to be condescending.The melee stuff has no place in FPS. Please tell me you didn't use Lightweight Marathon Commando.

You bugging fam.The melee stuff has no place in FPS. Please tell me you didn't use Lightweight Marathon Commando.
In WW2, melee weapons do have a place! They're more effective than the shotguns.The melee stuff has no place in FPS. Please tell me you didn't use Lightweight Marathon Commando.
Them changing the weapon challenge to every single day is ridiculous though, 35 games in one day, dont they think we have lives?
Has everyone binned this off or something?

These connections I can see why. Game is fucking really pissing me off.
It has been getting worst for me as I further prestige. Not only me, but also with the friends I play with.Im not having any of that, I had 2 disconnects over the last 2 weeks, working fine for me..ive not even opened my NAT, sitting on moderate.
I'm burning out after 50-55 hours played. Connections and matchmaking in general still don't feel consistent. What's really getting me is the lack of content: 10 maps with 4 of them making up 5 of the worst maps in the last 3 CoDs. War is enjoyable, but having only 3 maps is starting to feel stale after 25 hours of playtime in that mode.Has everyone binned this off or something?
