I haven't had grounded turn up in MP once!

I've had it a few times , its not 'common' but does show up - I think i've hit it more in Infected (which I play a few rounds of if i only have a short amount of time) more than in Domination as its quite small.

Double XP all this weekend and something new

Cant remember something about friendly fire .... mumble mumble

Actually - I accidentally shot a friendly in a game and they died not me , and wondered what was going on - i could not bring myself to team kill to see if i got kicked or not - however it looks like they have updated things so that you do not get ricochet kills in a match unless you've had 2 team kills already

Hardcore mode updated to only activate ricochet after 2 friendly kills in Infinite Warfare

In today’s new playlist update for Infinite Warfare, Infinity Ward has changed how Hardcore mode’s Ricochet will activate.

With this update, the ricochet only activates after a player has killed 2 teammates, meaning you have a 2 time grace period before it will start to reflect.

Woo! I should really get around to installing this and trying it out... I only have Modern Warfare Remastered installed just now.
Is the Zombies thing any good?

I like it - it takes a little getting used to for the few changes to Treyarch stuff but its still got a good feel to it

They have made some modifications to the basic Zombies modes so that its easier to play solo (in the final bossfight in solo you get one boss - in multiplayer you get one for each player) and the main area doors in solo are 1000 , in multiplayer they are X000 (where X is the number of players)

You can also pimp your guns (so all the extras you unlock in multiplayer carry over to the zombies mode) - my starting pistol has a sight / extended mags / hollow point (more headshot damage) / and an extended barrel (longer distance)

Perks wise you get the 'equivalent' stuff from old Zombies (so Tuff Enough is Jugg / quickies is speed cola / mule munchies is mule kick) - but have added a few extras (you get a mule icon on your 3rd gun so you know what one it is) - Slappy taffy is now a perk (2000 points) which replaces the bowie knife and is a one hit kill to about round 13 or so :-)

Here is me trying to do bits of the easter egg- upgrading guns and other stuff

DLC is live

New maps are new
New Zombie map is different but still has some things that cross over - however we'll see how it goes - glad slappy taffy is back - it also keeps the 'coin' thing from Spaceland (shove 3 into a totem pole to get a special item)

You either get the new maps at random playing any mode or you can play the DLC only but its non hardcore and a moshpit playlist so its very hit and miss if you get something good or rubbish

Double XP and double weapon XP all this week and i finished up tonight with an impressive match

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

HC dom and started off with only 2 other people on my team who leave before the first point is even taken, sometimes the game will merge in another group of people but this time it did not so its just me - by myself against a whole other team

Despite that i take the lead at the start , keep capturing and defending points and killing them off , hit my mission target (kill one member of the enemy team 6 times) , positive KD and end up with more than double their top players score - yes yes i lost the match but i dont care :-)

Some (limited so far) online stats options for IW and BLOPS3

https://my.callofduty.com/iw/stats?platform=psn

Its crazy that they had fairly good stats for things like BLOPS and MW3 but very little since

FYI I can see that its still not 100% for historic data but the recent matches all seem to be correct

Method Man voice pack!?

Link has the video for the voiceovers.

Interesting and probably better than a three quid skin of bacon and eggs for your laser blasting AR.

Big update last night (3 and a bit gig) for a few new weapons and those announcer packs

Expecting DLC updates 'soon' (probably a trailer in the next week or so)

Curiosity · **Posted:** Wed Mar 29, 2017 20:11

I still play this a fair bit but haven't bought any DLC for it. Getting tempted though just to see some new maps.

The new maps are just 'so so' no real stand out ones, the old Mw2 map is interesting because the verticality makes it possible to do things you could not in the old game (like jump up to the snipers ridge from much lower down or run along the side of the ridge as you come round to A) but the others are pretty much all 'forgettable'

FYI there is also a map pack out for the remastered MW1

http://www.vg247.com/2017/03/21/call-of ... ay-on-ps4/

But they want another 12 quid (and its not part of the season pass package if you paid out your £100 quid for it)

Quote:

The maps are Broadcast, Chinatown, Creek and Killhouse.

Call of Duty®: Infinite Warfare: Shaolin Shuffle Trailer

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare's second map pack has been revealed, and it's called Continuum.

The DLC contains four new maps: Turista, a spa resort contained within the skeleton of a giant ancient creature; Scrap, which is set on an abandoned Moonbase junkyard; Archive, a post-futuristic art gallery; and Excess, which is a small-scale re-imagining of the Modern Warfare 2 map Rust.

In addition, publisher Activision has released a new trailer that shows off the add-on's Shaolin Shuffle Zombies map--check it out above.

The Zombies chapter is set in a "'70s-era New York disco-zombie fright fest," according to Activision. It stars Pam Grier--who previously appeared in Quentin Tarantino's 1997 crime thriller film Jackie Brown--as well as Paul Reubens (Pee-wee's Big Holiday, Gotham), Seth Green (Robot Chicken, Austin Powers), Jay Pharoah (Saturday Night Live, Ride Along), and Sasheer Zamata (Saturday Night Live, Inside Amy Schumer).

Continuum will cost $15 when it launches on April 18 for PlayStation 4; "other platforms [will] follow," states Activision. Infinite Warfare's previous map pack, Sabotage, came to Xbox One and PC around five weeks after its PS4 launch thanks to a timed-exclusivity deal between Activision and Sony.

I really enjoyed the campaign, but lots of other people didn't.

I'm really enjoying it so far too. I've been on Europa, had some fun fighting on the streets back on earth, fought a space battle and now I'm on the fucking Moon! And it's only been an hour or two.
What's not to like?

27 June, standalone MW gets released is the rumour.

zaphod79 · **Joined:** 16th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 14489

Must be about due another DLC announcement as well

I'm really surprised they have not dropped MW before now just because they would make money from it - they have a DLC map pack for it at more than the bloody map pack cost at launch and its not included in the season pass - plus they have the crappy 'buy a random box of tat' which people will spend real world money on :-(

zaphod79 · **Joined:** 16th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 14489

Confirmed - MW remastered will be out as a standalone on the 27th

$40 (probably £30?) and another £13 or so for the one map pack available.

As posted by Grim... above you can get the latest COD for a tenner

July the 6th for the next map pack - very little details out there (and this is next week)

Activision Press Release:

Are you ready for some Absolution? You’re gonna need it, because this DLC Pack is bringing four new maps as well as a new zombies co-op experience straight out of the schlocky horror movies of the 1950s. Put them together and shake ‘em up, and you’ve got a perfectly explosive summer cocktail, daddy-o.

Maps

Bermuda: A shantytown created around the remnants of a crashed ship, Bermuda allows players to duck, dive, and wall ride from the fish market to the lighthouse in this small to medium sized map that’s been water-wasted and sandblasted.
Permafrost: Set within the chill of a frozen city skyline, Permafrost lets players stick to the ground and pick their plan of attack in one of three main lanes. They will traverse the map, moving from street side to train station, and hobo village to wrecked theater house in this small, tight-quarters map.
Fore: In Fore, the only thing miniature about this large map is the golf courses players will be fighting in. Fore features great visual variety as players swing around the sights and sounds of areas that brandish magical forests, giant creamsicles, and elevated castle walls.
Ember: Located near an old town castle, Ember is a remake of Resistance from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 featuring old world aesthetics retrofitted with modern technology. The surroundings include lava, gallows and a torture room, where players will want to stick close to their teammates.

Zombies

The twisted and enigmatic film director Willard Wyler is up to his shenanigans once again, and this time he’s zapped our fearless foursome of heroes into the 1950s with a campy horror experience titled Attack of the Radioactive Thing! The plot of this film follows a clumsy government science experiment gone wrong, turning an unsuspecting suburban populace into flesh devouring zombies, while a newly spawned biological menace moves into the ravaged town.

This action-packed chapter comes in the style of the Creature Feature movies of the era, and is headlined by none other than horror movie icon Elvira, played with voice and likeness by Cassandra Peterson. She will help players (hopefully) survive by giving them tips and side quests, all in her unique Elvira style, as they attempt to make it through this science experiment from hell.

Stepping into brand-new roles, our four intrepid cast of characters will become The Scientist, The Rebel, The Soldier, and The School Girl as they battle all-new zombies while sporting classically cool 1950s attire. If you’re hip to that jive, then just try to stay alive in Attack of the Radioactive Thing!

MW:R's map pack is half price at the minute too. £7.99.

Broadcast
Creek
Chinatown
Killhouse

I can't remember any of my old hiding spots at all. Bah.

Oh and they've got a special Beach Bog level too which has Bog in daylight with additional furniture and surfboards and shit about.

zaphod79 · **Joined:** 16th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 14489

Yeah and both have some free 'boxes' to open for items - IW also has x2 on everything so

Double XP
Double weapon XP
Double keys
Double Mission team XP

There are also 3 new weapons - one for free (a sniper rifle that switches into a shotgun) , the other two need unlocking which are the upgraded 1880 shotguns from MW2 (play 15 games where you get at least 10 kills with akimbo weapons) , and another sniper rifle (play 15 games where you get five 1 shot kills with sniper rifles which should be just 15 games with a sniper rifle on any hardcore mode)
