80Gb download but if you already have COD: MW its an additional 20-30 Gb

Pardon is that just the update!

None of which is surprising. I mean, the game is 159GB, and every season patch so far is 50-100GB. Not unbearable on 40MB/s, but a very different story on Wifi...

All that in addition to having to restart Battle.net for launcher update, and having to restart the game client 1-2 times after the update finishes. On the bright side, the game has played very well in the past few months after the launch day artifacting; it's just very sensitive to system stability. That, and Activision took after Gaijin in making changelogs and attachment descriptions that are 95% inaccurate to the actual stats...

The aimbot scenario is getting old in competitive multiplayer.... I cant understand how people can get away with running channels with over 100,000 views and not one person mentions the guy didnt miss a single bullet... What made me notice was people taking shots out of the range of their sites. So they were guessing, but then still kill two or even three guys and not one bullet misses, so unfocused and at range. I cant be the only one whos noticed this on certain youtube channels. i'm glad to say the majority of people who play dont use hacks... Even with these guys hacking, it doesnt completely ruin the experience. I still enjoy it anyway... ^^

And now already full of cheaters to my understanding.
This is a major problem on free to play games, if caught and banned they can be back with a different account in minutes.
Clearly somewhat odd ,or at least beyond my comprehension.
I mean they're clearly getting joy from trolling people gaming for no personal gain though if tubin. That gain could be real.
YouTube should do something about it , so should Devs, the what is beyond me though.

i should of come first the other day using the GoldenDragon which i had painstakingly modified up to level 64. The gun hardly improved and a 1st place with this weapon would of made for a good video. Especially as everyone else is using SMG's.
I came second as a two man team came around a bus in the end game. They had made noise so i was looking in their direction and got the drop. They pretended not to see me and allowed me to start shooting. A normal reaction is to immediately drop to the floor or back off into cover. Both players looked directly at me and i was dead within seconds as not one bullet missed at 150m. I'll try to find out the stream. It just felt as though they killed me too easily. I appreciate whats being done to rid us of these cheaters. We've only had every multiplayer fps ruined for the last 15+ yrs. Its about time the devs came up with a good mechanism that the cheats cant get around.

Yes I have dropped my assault rifle build outs to favor more of a smg/sniper load out in warzone. I still run an AR in multi but only on certain maps. shipment/rust is smg/shotty everything else is pretty much smg/sniper or smg/marksman. I do have 2 builds for when I am feeling evil - M4 with the tomahawk(melee knife) and crossbow(termite bolts) with akimbo m19's.

I'm using my M4 aswell now. Back to high kill counts. The AK47 Golden Dradon was extremely difficult to get kills with, glad i'm done with it to be honest. :toast:
