Battlefield 4/CoD Ghosts

Didn't have it on PS3...hence the "plz halp" post. The graphics are pretty sweet. Will keep an eye on operations - didn't know you could refresh the list. Half of em are for shit I haven't unlocked yet. I did find out you can unlock perks early by spending squad points, but haven't bothered to unlock any...yet.

Question - does ghost and all the other sneaky shit still reveal you if you sit still? Any other ridiculously stupid tweaks I need to worry about?
 
You can play squad mode, where it is just you against AI characters and earn real credit until you character is up to about level 8. Between that, and unlocking the first 6 relatively cheap characters to build them up through the more tightly spaced early levels you can get a bunch of squad points kind of quickly.

At first I thought picking the initial load out carefully mattered, but now I don't think it does.

If you want to take the time, you can make a private room supposedly and try out anything in there without unlocking it, to see if you want to spend credits on it.

Off the grid is what Ghost is now. I believe it's back to the way it used to be where you just stay off the radar even if you camp. To be honest, it's hardly worth it. Sat Coms are nowhere near as powerful as the old UAV. The only way Sat Coms work well is if the other guy can get a few put out at once or he burns the perk slots to run the Wiretap perk. Which also isn't worth it unless you rely on the minimap just that much to find enemies.

Since sound whoring is so good in this game now....I honestly think dead silence is an absolute must perk to have. Or the Amplify perk so you can really hear them coming too.

Incog is a strong perk too. Which is what used to be Cold Blooded. I'm sure you seen enough killcams to know that a lot of people like to run thermal or tracker sights.

And for straight up slaying, Stalker is a ridiculous good perk. I believe it's already banned in MLG play.

One last thing to unlock. Thermobaric grenade. They're so awesome. Unlike flash and stun, they do real damage. But you do have to cook them like a frag. Plus they have a large effective range. It's just silly how many kills I've gotten with them. They're tactical grenades, but in hardcore mode, they're much more effective than actual frags.

Off the grid doesn't protect against Oracle's, which are pretty damn strong, and are fairly easy to get off of support streaks. You need blind eye for that.

Is it Incog or Blind Eye that keeps you off the oracle? I don't worry much about oracles since I'm usually on the move. And since the oracle isn't a constant wall hack and more of a pulse it's really only effective against campers.

I don't run blind eye on anything. It's a waste of 2 perk slots. I am much happier running support and getting the MAAWS. It's so awesome when I immediately shoot down some poor clown's Hind the he had to camp to get his 9 kills to earn.

Blind Eye.

and I also saw it on some Gamefaqs thread. Neither of those sources would I consider 100% authoritative though.

That's probably right. If Incog worked for the Oracle too, then Blind Eye wouldn't be pretty much worthless. This isn't like MW2 where the sky is full of harriers and AC130s on a regular basis.
 
I pretty much only play kill confirmed, domination, and cranked. Everything else is way too camped out.
 
lol I finally googled what the requirements are for the Humiliate the next enemy you kill field orders. you have to tea bag them.

Knew that one right off the bat. Silly in cod though since the killcam doesn't show what's up after the death like battlefield...which is where tea bagging is just rampant.

yes but you can still tell they are doing it because the screen moves up and down during the kill cam. I've finally got the maps down enough to where I can use a run and gun strategy. Its not easy but end up top of the board alot by doing this. That bulldog shotgun is a fucking beast and I love listening to people cry about it when they get lit up.
 
The bulldog is a rape master in Cranked on a couple maps. It'll be even better if/when they bring back Dome for one of the map packs.
 
Starting to get the maps and traffic flows down nicely. K:D jumped from being often 12-16 or worse to 24-6 and averaging 2:1 :teeth.

New screenname for PS4 as well - Tyrion_Archer if anyone wants to add me.
 
Picked up Ghosts last night its SO much different from BOPS2 graphically. Spent my first hour getting shot up from every angle. Going to put in a couple more hours after running work reports. Can't say its better than 2 just yet.
 
I hated the game at first and was about to return it but the gamer in me just wouldn't allow it to beat me down that bad. Now I actually like it mostly because I stopped caring about my KD (holding steady at a whooping 1.07) and focused more on pissing people off and ruining others killstreaks. On stonehinge (castle map) I have a camping spot that can get me to maniac 8 out of 10 times. Same for jail break. Those are my 2 stealth/camp maps. Fooded, chasm, warzone, treamor, and the strip club map are all great shotgun maps. The only map I really hate is soveireign. There is no good system for that map besides just hoping not to die too much. I like the submachine gun that comes stock with the AP rounds. Add grip and rapid fire to it and it almost kills as fast as the bulldog. Dead silence, blindeye, and incog on almost all classes. give up everything else for a few more perks. Attack with dog, sentrygun, and maniac on camping loadouts. specialist on rushing classes. Amplify, scavenger, and whatever else doesn't matter cause your rarely gonna make it that far rushing.

PSN name is...S8TNS_BOSS clan tag set to.. BARF... for now

Thought I might of spotted corndog the other night but not sure if he plays and he had no mic.

Nice shootin tex, but don't get too proud of yourself. They're giving everyone the Christmas gun, reticle, and background. Whatever your best stats are is what they're using to say you deserve a reward.
 
toughest to kill them= TDM or FFA
toughest for the camper= Cranked
