Dudes camping, crouching around because that’s the way deadly silence works, sound whoring. This game is aids.

you musta not played Modern Warfare :mjlol:

It’s just the new generation of gamers all I’ve noticed. You got a mix of kids who like trolling (y0U MaD BrOoOo), newbies young and old who play like pussies, then the average gamer who came up during the PS2/PS3/360 days of high aggression high kills

They could do what Halo did in Halo 3 and have ranked playlists but it did divide up the user base and lengthen the amount of time to find a game. Especially in the later years..

But COD drops yearly, pretty much everyone moves over, and there's so many people online at once I'm not sure anyone would notice a difference.

The days of dominating n00bs all day are long gone. Brehs better get used to fighting with people who are on par or above. :francis:
shyt is a major problem in BO3
I've gone against players w/ 3-15+ KDs even though I sometimes play w/ a 8.67 player
They usually have amazing aim and are try hards but they FEAST on these shyt COD players
These noob players are TERRIBLE in BO3
They just aimlessly run around getting shot from behind
I've killed these high KD players plenty of times but they jump around a lot and will camp like crazy or quit the match if their KD falls below their average or standards
They are very very hard to kill at times
I could easily have a 3-5+ KD if I was a try hard and cared about my KD like that because feasting on these shytty noob players is too easy
No more exploitation of noob players :yeshrug:

I thought it was fun :yeshrug: at least my character isn't flying around and my bullets hit where I put em.

SBMM is an issue but you can put the team on you back, or shut up and quit :mjlol:
