Discussion Is Call of Duty becoming more of a chore than a game? Anyone else shifting to Battlefield 6?

154 Upvotes

I’ve played Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (2023) mostly for the multiplayer, but I skipped Black Ops 6. Now that Black Ops 7 pre-orders are out, I’m not sure if it’s worth it.

COD just feels too grindy and monetized lately — constant daily objectives, battle passes, and cosmetics. I already paid ₹5000 for MW3, yet it feels like I have to play every day or spend more money just to keep up.

As someone with a full-time job, I don’t have time to grind daily. Games should be fun, not a chore. With Battlefield 6 launching soon, I’m tempted to wait and see how that turns out.

Anyone else feeling the same way about COD? Are you buying BO7 or switching to Battlefield this time?

It's been 16 years since Call of Duty: Black Ops launched on November 9, 2010.

The campaign with Mason, Woods, and Reznov, the multiplayer maps, and the Zombies mode made it such a memorable entry in the series.

Hard to believe it's been that long already.

What's your favourite memory from the original Black Ops?

Discussion The game [BO7] is full of cheaters already and aim assist is non existent for console players.

81 Upvotes

The game is full of cheaters already, enemies are having 127 kills with 16KD ratio, or 98 kills woth 21KD ratio, this is just insane. Aim assist on console is close to none, so there is no fair play, the amount of aim assist as of now for console players cant allow a fair play against MNK players. Not everyone is a sweater and not everyone spends 300h a day to be a professional player on controller, most of the people jump on the game after a long working day to enjoy the game but there is no enjoyment anymore. Aim assist should be properly visible, should be like in other Call Of Duty titles. Aim assist was never ever the problem, cheating is the problem. MW3 is flooded with cheaters, Black Ops 6 is flooded with cheaters, it looks like BO7 is flooded as well, I’m gonna ask for a refund, if they will refund me that’s ok, if not I will not buy their games anymore anyways. The hope is over now, they just cant be saved.

[Question] Why would there be 30ish wifi networks seemingly emanating from under a concrete pad?

55 Upvotes

Hi, For the record this is a serious post, so please no tin foil hat comments, etc....

Recently I lived on a semi urban farm property for a few months, and I noticed some very unusual things that I won't get into here. What I'd like to know is what reason there might be for somewhere in the neighborhood of 25-30 low-strength wifi networks (all with exactly the same signal strength, peaking at the same point location) to be seemingly emanating from underneath a concrete pad which is supposed to be simply covering gravel and dirt?

To clarify, I used wifi analyzer to ensure that it wasn't just a coincidental situation where lots of neighborhood networks happened to have similar signal strength due to the distances they were from their sources. I walked in concentric circles with wifi analyzer running, and the further I got from the point location on the concrete pad mentioned above, the weaker the signals became.

For example, if they were neighborhood networks, you would expect some to get stronger as you approached the property line on one side, and some to get weaker. No matter which direction you went, the signal strength degraded in proportion to the distance you were from this spot. Eg at 20 feet from the spot at 12, 3, 6 and 9 o clock they would be the same strength, as would they be at 40 feet (weaker than at 20, however). there were residential homes on two sides of the property, but to the rear of the property there was a large county park and to the front there was another larger farm, where there were clearly no wifi routers.

The next peculiar thing, is that these networks SSID's would change every 5 minutes or so. They also covered the entire 2.4g spectrum from channel 1-14 and had total coverage over the entire spectrum.

as you watched the signal strength diagram on wifi analyzer in real time, there were peaks and valleys in signal strength, but they were all coordinated across these low strength networks. There was a single wifi network (the company network on that property I was living on) that would peak and valley in signal strength exactly in time with these low strength networks that would change their names regularly, and that covered the spectrum at exactly the same signal strength.

Also, I used a seek thermal imaging camera to check out the peak signal strength point location on that concrete pad, and the temperature at that point was about 30 degrees F hotter than the surrounding concrete.

I drilled a hole through that part of the pad, and drilled a couple other holes randomly at different spots on that same concrete pad. I poured water down all the holes, and only the one at the peak signal strength location would drain and drain without filling up. the others all filled up after about 1/2 liter of water was poured into them. Any idea what that means? Thanks!

Stanislav Petrov Has Died.

Stanislav Petrov, the Russian officer who singlehandedly averted nuclear Armageddon has died.

He stopped a retaliatory nuclear strike on the USA when the Russian warning system indicated that the USA had fired several nuclear missiles at the USSR.

He was the subject of the documentary The man who saved the world. I've seen the movie and it is incredible.

He died on may 19 but this is the first we are hearing about it.

Discussion I really am too old for this shit...

29 Upvotes

So I decided to pick up the port of Black ops 1. Turns out 15 years is a loooong time.

First off I now get a massive headache playing this game for any long period of time even with my glasses on.

Secondly I can no longer see anything at a distance

Even if I do get the drop on someone my reaction time is so slow I basically lose every fight anyway. I basically have to play this like a stealth game.

I also can't seem to keep the reticle on my target for more than half a second and there is no sensitivity at which I feel comfortable. Right now I'm on the highest and that seems to work okay for long distances but is terrible close-up.

I've also completely forgotten most of the map layouts, and whoever decided our uniforms should match the coloration of the level is a monster.

I used to be all about the weird stuff, back in the day I could get 20 or 30 kills with just a ballistic knife, now I'm lucky if I even hit something with the ballistic knife, and using anything except the enfield feels awful to me.

Do the stealth perks even work? Because despite having everything on it seems like just about every opponent knows exactly where I am at all times, are headphones that necessary?

And I have to say I don't remember the recoil on the guns being quite so oppressive and difficult to control, not that literally anyone else seems to have any issues with it. I guess I'll just take my four hit markers and go home.

So yeah trying to get back up to speed has been pretty rough, wish me luck I guess, maybe send me some advice, but I am definitely feeling way too old for this shit.
