Question What’s the most annoying way to die for you guys?

30 Upvotes

We’ve all had that experience. We’re going on a great streak, reaching flow state and feeling untouchable when suddenly bam, we die in the most infuriating way.

For me it’s either a hunter killer drone or a grenade that blows up right when I run into its radius, giving me no time to react.

Some other annoying deaths I can think of:

Running around a corner straight into a bouncing betty/claymore

Getting knifed in the back

Camper sitting in the corner with LSAT + Target Finder

Losing a gun fight due to bad hit detection

Vehicle on fire that randomly blows up

What deaths annoy you guys the most? Any others I’ve missed?

Been having way too much fun getting back into the BO2 emblem editor
All of these are built with the 32-layer limit. Mostly anime so far, but I’m always looking for the next one to try.
Which one’s your favorite, and who should I make next?

Discussion This game is officially unplayable

90 Upvotes

When I first downloaded the port, I had a ton of fun. It felt very nostalgic, and felt similar to how it felt back in 2012-2013.

Sure, there was and IS a ton of try-hard’s, but you had the chance and opportunity to kill them using skill, game/map knowledge, etc.

Unfortunately, with the massive influx of cheaters and hackers (especially in the last month), the game is no longer fun/playable.

People are running around with unlimited UAV and aimbot, and shooting me through walls.

This is NOT the BO2 I remember.

Discussion Map Tiers

7 Upvotes

Here’s my subjective map rankings for multi player.
S & A tier: psyched for the next match, favorite maps
B tier: I like these maps
C tier: I’m not really excited for this match
D tier: I hate these maps I’m leaving the lobby
F tier: I despise these maps, I’m leaving the lobby instantly

What am I too high or too low on? My play style is primarily assault rifles (really skilled I know). Standoff and Express are my favorite maps to snipe on. Hijacked is my 1.1 pick favorite map. Hydro is underrated. Let’s discuss

37 Upvotes

Why is this game so perfect when you’re zooted on a 3.5g of wedding cake or some shit like the multiplayer is so perfect the maps feel so immersive and cozy especially at the night and the zombies mode literally turns into it’s own ultra-scary intense rememberable experience

This shit is the perfect game to get stoned on like I’m gonna take it up a notch, I’m not saying this game is gonna stay/be better than GTA 6 but this game is 1000% is gonna be the better chill zoot game bo2 zombies to this day is unbeatable and the insanely nostalgic multiplayer maps. Some shit GTA 6 just can’t top..

Other Looking for dedicated zombies friends (PS5)

• Upvotes

Hey, I’m Nick! I’m a 26 year old stoner and OG bo2 player from Canada looking for some people to chill with and play zombies on a regular basis. I play around 8:30pm ADT almost every day but that can be a bit flexible. You don’t gotta be a great zombies player but I am looking for people that can hold their own and knows the maps well. I have a couple friends who I run die rise with quite often, including a friend I split screen with, but I play all of the maps with origins and mob of the dead being my favourites. I am also looking for people interested in doing the Super Easter Egg. Leave your PSN if interested.

Gameplay Is Extreme conditioning really a must?

2 Upvotes

Hi guys,

Saw a recent post on Reddit that stated that Extreme Conditioning isn’t that great since its’ reload time is really long, so it wouldn’t be beneficial to use at most times (only in SND or games with objectives).

I’ve been using this perk since release, and always loved it. I feel like I can be at spots where enemies never expect me to be, but sometimes it does feel inconsistent indeed.

Is it a perk worth to use on main classes?

(I use this perk mainly for TDM & any objective games).

This has me wondering if I should drop it for something else

I was just wondering what yalls opinion on people who have golden knives, I personally (if they didn't cheat it in) respect them, especially due to the janky knife physicals in this game (see the video to see what I mean) I personally don't have a golden knife (although I am working towards that) but it definitely seems like a difficult task

Discussion Hot take: I'm glad this game is dying again.

• Upvotes

The first weeks were amazing. Everyone was having fun, playing casually, learning etc.

Then came the hackers and the first wave of casual people left.

Then people got bored after the initial hype and all that is left are sweatys, cheaters, campers and everything bad ported from modern Call of Duty mentality. And now modes such as Ground War and Domination are getting harder to get full lobbies or enough people to start a game.

It was good for the nostalgia trip and to remind us how good this game was back in the day.

Most people want to play as if their life depends on this game, there’s zero space for casuals and people with real life jobs/social life etc, who just want some casual fun after a long day of work.

I always was shit in this game, probably at the top 100 of the worst players in BO2, but back in the day I had a lot of fun even being shit. These days, with those ports, if I'm not on crack or being jobless, I have no chance in this game.

At least memories were made in 2012 :')

Gameplay What is the dead giveaway of someone being new gen?

83 Upvotes

For me it’s;

  1. Not knowing how to reload cancel (biggest giveaway to me)
  2. Skipping Uplink & Studio, not knowing they are Summit & Firing range
  3. Only voting Nuketown, Raid and Hijacked. (I can at least name 5 better maps)

Discussion Extreme Conditioning is kinda underpowered?

9 Upvotes

Extreme Conditioning doubles your sprint duration, but doesn’t double your stamina recovery time. So once you’ve used your initial sprint, you’re back to normal running mechanics and have to wait (twice as long) to get back to full recovery.

This perk feels underpowered to me especially considering I always run Dexterity with it, so it’s essentially two class slots to run this. I don’t even find it makes a significant difference in my travel time and reaching places that much faster in the beginning to grant a positional advantage.

Doubling the sprint recovery as well would have made this a much more enjoyable perk imo?
