Yes you can. It's more difficult than before, but you can still get double/triple/multi-kills. Once players master the movement, you will see people beasting.
Did you play MW3? We had lobbies full of people running around with akimbo FMG9s as primaries. And you want to talk about people using the same guns.
First of all, why in the world would you play ground war on this game? This game is hectic 6v6, now imagine 9v9.
Look at the gameplay I posted above. I went 39-12 and I didn't picked people off from ledges and rooftops at all. Not saying it was anything special, but that video shows you that it's not hard to do well in this game. I see a bunch of big youtubers uploading AW content, are you trying to purposely avoid their uploads or some shyt.
This game was over a year into development when information started to come out about Titanfall. Any similarities between the two is very likely just a coincidence. Not only that, the only similarity between this game and Titanfall is the movement and even that is just somewhat similar. Any futuristic shooter is going to have similar movement to Titanfall and AW. Also, AW definately has that COD feel.
People are never satisfied:
- COD keeps the same formula 'Hey look it's the same game as last year. They don't change or add anything major.'
- AW brings in major change to the COD franchise : 'AW is copying Titanfall, this doesn't feel like COD, change back to old formula.'
The Akimbo FMG's were patched and it was noobs and trolls using them. Damn near every gun was viable. I got MOAB's with the ACR, SCAR, FAD, M4A1, G36C, MK14, MP5, UMP, PP90, P90, MP7, PM9, USAS, Stryker, MP9 and damn near got it with the rest. All these guns were used heavily. Yes the ACR/MP7 were popular but not overpowered. MW3 arguably had the best weapon balancing in COD aside from the Akimbo's. Even the LMG's were good.
Past COD's I played a lot of 6v6 KC or Dom but Ground War has always been my favorite game mode. It's horrible in AW. I had to stop playing it.
Nice gameplay (that spawn at 2:29
). Was that recorded and uploaded by the PS4? That's my favorite map because I can run around with an SMG and play similar to traditional COD with a nice mix of Exo movement. The small maps have consistent action. Maps like Terrace have too many random encounters with people flying all around you.
As for Youtube, content is slower than it's ever been. themarkofj has 3 videos so far. They're playing the game but ground war was the main game type everyone uploaded and that isn't working. Killtreaks are weak so getting big scores is rarer. Overall this game doesn't translate to youtube as well as previous games and Ghosts pushed a lot of my favorites into retirement.
Actually, MLG players prefer a variety of weapons. I know MLG players played the game early [as did some Youtubers], but only a couple of months early.
No they don't
. In the
big money tournaments they literally use 3-5 guns in competition (depending on the game). Whatever gets banned they just use the next best thing. Maybe teams like Optic or Faze will quick scope but that's it. You never see shotguns (banned in MW3), LMG's, or the weaker guns being used. Nobody's running a knife only class or riot shield. The game where you saw the most variety was MW3.
MLG players want what any avid COD fan wants. A fun, fair, competitive and balanced game. The focus that is put on them is not much.
They don't see the game the same way. They spend most of their time playing 3v3 or 4v4 not public matches. I don't want their input at all. They're too small of a group to have any say. Beta Test and they could avoid a few issues at launch.
