Reboot vs Heatsync

When the Reboot first came out it was so much fun and unique that over time I’ve developed this almost OCD routine where I have to have a Reboot before doing glitches (even if I have a Sokol with sharpshooter which I can do any glitch with). I’ve got 15 operators to max so that’s 60 Reboots.

It’s gotten much rarer over time for me at least, so sometimes it can take days or a week of just grinding to get one.

I currently have The Warden at prestige three and I have a Heatsync (which I love). For some reason I never prestiged the AAROW after getting it to max in probably January doing Genesis so I decided to prestige it. For two weeks I’ve been clearing the spawn fears before abominations with the Heatsync then switching to my Sokol. I’ve done so many abominations (on top of Zursas, command centres, Falkner, HVTs etc) that I’ve now got the AAROW to 125 and most of that was before the 2XP weekend.

Anyway, enough about you! I’ve realised I don’t actually think the Reboot is that great. It’s just such an adrenaline rush to finally find one.

What’s your take on this very serious issue? Reboot or Heatsync??!

Is there any expectation or hints or anything that we’ll get a Treyarch game next year?

All I know is that if there’s a Black Ops 8 planned it won’t be until 2028? I understand the feeling that yearly releases aren’t necessarily a good idea but this year has been so great, I just want something to look forward to next year.

I’ve bought MW4 but I suspect I’ll only love the campaign. I’ll try MP but PvP isn’t my thing and as DMZ is PvPvE I’m not sure I’ll play it as much as zombies and Endgame.

What did they do to the Echo (original buff etc) - I haven’t used it since I got it to 250 eight months or so back

I kept reading how OP the Echo had become and then they nerfed it but apparently it’s still good?

I haven’t touched it since it was my first 250 and I still get flashbacks to the horror I/we endured getting that camo.

Did they just buff it or is it an attachment? Also how good is it? Better than the post-buff Maelstrom? Because I used to love that so much I’d basically sleep with it if I could…

I’ve worked out what’s wrong with MW4

If IW just fixed these 6 simple issues they can save the game and the future of COD. I just hope they read this and take urgent action:

TTK is too fast
The movement is too slow
Aim Assist is too strong
TTK is too slow
The movement is too fast
Aim Assist is too weak

Did the Chinese actually “solve” the whole EE or… (no spoilers please)

I don’t know if this has been asked because I’m trying to avoid spoilers so I haven’t been reading the sub since I heard they leaked the ending.

My question isn’t did they cheat, I’m asking are we sure they actually went through the steps or if they just - I’m completely non technical so don’t know if this is possible - hacked something or other and found the ending cinematic?

“I will lower your taxes and raise everyone else’s”

To me, this is one of the greatest satirical jokes of all time.

For some context, Britain seems to want everything to be run perfectly while paying no tax or as little as possible. Even raising taxes on the extremely wealthy gets massive pushback when suggested. It’s the one issue that every politician and party has had to dodge around since forever.

Added to that the tendency of politicians to say whatever they feel their current audience wants to hear and the Binface policy is as biting as it is succinct. And hilarious, obviously.

S5R Content: Nothing

The only mode that’s getting nothing new at all. I doubt any of the bugs will be fixed now either as they’ve clearly abandoned it.

Oh well, it was a good run.

Ode to the Chode

There were many people from Clacton on Sea

Who saw Nigel Farage and said, “There’s our MP!”

So they voted him in

but never saw him again

‘til he needed distractions

from his dodgy transactions.

His undeclared millions buying numerous houses

“Just gifts,” he said which he stuffs down his trousers

So he resigned from his post

and returned to the coast

Expecting to be reenlisted

by those he’d forgotten existed

What he hadn’t foreseen

Was the untainted sheen

Of one who (unlike the scrote)

Wasn’t as bent as a ten bob note

Count Binface was his name

And democracy is his game

He’s caring, decent and funny

He doesn’t care for dirty money,

Unlike Nige, who holds out his hand.

He’ll champion Clacton like no one else can

If that’s not enough and you’re still on the fence

How about a 99 for 99 pence?

Do you think this is good enough for “the longest grind in COD history”?

I admire anyone who has it because of the grind (I only have 20 at 250, so miles off) but do you think this is anywhere near good enough for the supposed longest grind ever?

For something like that, I feel like it should be absolutely mind blowing. I wouldn’t even give it a unique name like other camos, I’d just call it The Camo.

What do you think? Do you have it? Do you want it? Are you grinding for it?

Wingman Unit and weapon XP

I’m pretty sure the answer is no but do wingman kills contribute to weapon levelling like graviton, Conjuration etc do?

If not I’m going to have to swap it out…

Serious lag

Is anyone else getting really bad lag since Friday? I’m on PS and I feel like I’m constantly two seconds behind everything. WiFi is fine.

It’s that bad that when I move the arrow across the tac map it freezes and then jumps to the other side. And when flying even the speedometer stutters.

I had to do three glitches last night to prestige Vermaak so I chose the safest option but trying to kill the final boss in Link was a pain the arse. Took twice as long as usual.

Are servers down?

I just keep “trying to connect to account data” and it times out. Tried resetting, restarting several times but nothing.

I took a screenshot but the app doesn’t even load my games.

Glitches are too long!!! Too. Long!

  1. I know this is a pointless comment because they’re finished and nothing can be done about it

  2. I quite enjoy all glitches and I’m glad they introduced them and nightmare skills

BUT even though on their own each takes less than 10 minutes, the fact you have to do 18 - A-TEEN!!!! - of the bastards before you max one character is so tedious after awhile.

What do you - ver Endgame fraternity and sisterhood - think in your brain about this subject?

Why does the Maverick feel so shit?

First of all, I hate burst fire so it might be that, but it feels so weak to me compared to almost every other AR. It’s the only AR I still haven’t got to 250 and it’s such a slog.

I tried doing Link Forger yesterday and the first phase was taking so long to kill everything I just reverted to the Reboot and never used it again.

Above us my build. Firepower is high but it doesn’t feel like it at all.

Songs about letting go please?

I like all kinds of music , “old” and “new”.

I’ve googled it but all I can find are suggestions about breaking up with someone and moving on but I’m looking for songs about letting go of all worries, letting go of the past and/or concerns about present and future.

Just letting go.

The only two I can think of is “Let It Be” by little known British indie group, The Beatles and the above by Eno/Cale.

I’d prefer upbeat songs, a joyful carefree letting go but anything really. Thank you.
