COD: Advanced Warfare

To each their own.

Ask Swarley about my Gaming OCD.

Unless it's something I've been looking forward to (like DA: I), I'll spend a week w/ the newest flavor of the week and move on.

Since I've gotten the PS4, I've only finished AC IV, TLoU and a few more but that's it.

More like gaming ADD... It would drive my OCD wild to play and not finish games like you do lol.

When I was at GS today, I looked down at the list of upcoming games...

The only thing stopping me from getting a preorder down/buying them all was my wallet and the need to pay bills to keep the lights on.

I preordered online and selected store pickup for a store that isn't opening at midnight. Can I pick it up at a different store if I have my order number?

Ahhh after double checking my store is opening at midnight. The website had Menomonee listed and not Menomonee Falls. Problem is both places exist in WI. Link went to the Menomonee Falls store page. Get your shit together best buy!

So I'll have my copy tonight.

True story. Not long ago I had five games on my day 1 list for this month. Luckily one got delayed and another is getting picked up by GAW for my review.

At least for me, I'm not even starting them. I'm sure with AC Unity coming out there will be at least one game I will finish

Lucky you because if that wasn't the case they would not honor your preorder at another store.

I was afraid having jet packs would just add to the frantic pace of the online multiplayer but I am pleasantly surprised to see things are really well balanced. I haven't enjoyed a COD game this much in a long time (so far).

Thoughts So Far:

 

-The Campaign (as to be expected) is dumb fun.

Feels like an extension of Black Ops II in the way future-tech melds w/ modern military stuff.

Just seeing in the first two missions how ATLAS Corp. is basically Google if Google made shit that killed people effectively and to the highest bidder.

-DID NOT like that for all the facial mapping, etc., the NPCs all still look like lifeless mannequins and/or robots that wear masks that look like actors.

It's creepy and ALSO, you can tell when the NPC mouths are still moving to try and match up w/ what dialogue is used.

-Definitely at least try out the SP Campaign FIRST so you can get a sense of what all's included in this game.

The LAST thing you want to do is try to use the grenades and find out that you've been setting then wrong the entire time and THAT's the reason your K/D went to shit.

Also, you can get a feel for the different guns, sights and gear the game will throw at you.

I think it's a bold statement to say that "everything is well balanced" after the game has not even been out for 12 hours.

Until you play the game yourself, you're only going to hear hearsay and allow reviews done by media professionals that don't devote every waking moment to the COD franchise to cloud your judgment.

...or...

If you're feeling froggy, you can brave YouTube and watch some footage/hot takes from a basement dweller that can't string a sentence together w/o using "gay", "faggot", "queer", "bitch" or some other derogatory.

================================================== ===========

IMO, if you haven't put down the ducats for this (as a general statement), just rent the game and get your fix.

I'm not all that concerned about the game. I was just pointing out that the comment was pretty silly.

Who created the FOOT clan? Looks like you need to have an invite.
