I really like how the camo challenges don’t require doing specific tasks. Weapon mastery is purely a reflection of the amount of time and kills you’ve put into a weapon, which is what it should be.
i wish they would at least add two more camos just three and having to grind to 50 just for the first one leaves a sour taste tbh but i do like the system more than doing ridiculous challenges just this is sooo lengthy
Yup, you can play however you want and progress mastery on your own time and terms. I _love_ getting 10 penetration kills while backflipping near a claymore 7 times on Terminal (must be playing SnD) as much as the next COD player, but...
People always find a way to complain about anything. I’m just happy that call of duty may actually have some competition which hopefully turns into great games from both companies.
Seeing this lobby just gave me so much nostalgia for the old BO2 times. Even if these lobbies are rare, so they were back then. Gameplay and close moments like 6:25 is what got me in love, not only w cod, but also w gaming. I just miss it so much...
I just played MWIII after not playing for an entire week and only playing XDefiant. I can't tell you how many times I tried to mid air straif and emoji after deaths lol. I kept screwing up. But at least I unlocked the week 8 blueprint and camo in only 2 games. Alt-4'd immediately and loaded into XDefiant 😎
That was you in that showtime match. I was losing for like an hour straight but seeing you made my whole day (I'm a pistol user so I've been STRUGGLING OMG) MUCH LOVE MERKYMERK
Ive been watching you for 13 years and to see a damn near 30 min video is like a frickin present or something dude i feel like ive been gifted something
Gosh how I miss the times you needed to run bling to even run two attachments on a primary, now anything and everything holds 60+ rounds with a 3x scope, muzzle brake, all types of barrels and whatever else there is now with conversions! The intervention with fmj, sleight of hand pro, stopping power pro and commando pro; now that’s a class!
My lobbies are mixed, sometimes I shred, and sometimes I'm being shredded. I could have a good game and still lose, that's XD. People are complaining about the movement, I bounce off of objects to move across maps, sorta like in, The Finals, and it works for me just fine. I just found out,. you gain more XP, for objective kills. Now I focus more on the objective, and I'm leveling up faster, unfortunately I used my tokens.
For people only finding sweats, do note it's okay to leave matches. No one wants to be that guy but old school players call it "lobby surfing." Leaving matches you don't feel comfortable playing in is perfectly fine. It's the benefit of no SBMM. Now, I'm not saying to surf lobbies till you find an easy match cuz that's pretty scummy, honestly. Just saying it's not viewed as a bad thing and most old school players understand. I can't believe I have to call myself "old school" but I did play Cod4 at it's peak, so.
I am enjoying this game for sure, I do think we could do with some kill streaks but maybe just have less and have a higher treshold, maybe starting at 7 nor 10 kills. Jus think it's nice to have something to work towards and be rewarded for being on a longer kill streak but don't need the lower ones like uav or stuff. Maybe some extra beenfits like specilaist so longer ults or skills etc I am not sure
I mean not really. All I see is TH-camrs run around and not play objective and they all have high KD, I have a 1.6 and I’m straight diving in there doing everything
mark rubin is a legend for how much is doing for the game, i cant give him enough credit just such a good man and such a good decision from him and the team he backs love them all
Personally I run Barrel extender, Rapid barrel, Superlight grip, Fast mags and Quickdrae grip. It just absolutely melts at close and mid range, and the recoil is next to none.
2:45 your face cam being where the mini map is makes this timestamp very coincidental and the way you were moving and snap to that guy around the corner makes it look very suspicious as if you were cheating..
Me and my boys ran a 5 man and a 6 man last night and won only once out of like 15 games shits ultra sweaty it reminds me of overwatch 2 when that dropped
no sbmm is huuuuge. i also got about 40 hrs over the 2xp weekend (hehe) and the absence of sbmm is astonishing. I would get back to back 60+ kills matches and still was enjoying. absolutely love it to not be treated any different for being good. ur good? u do good. simple as that
I love how he likes this game so much and just giggles with the emojis and stuff. Definitely a way better experience than anything cod spits out, even though I am terrible at all these games 💀
From what i know, playing the objective does help with the grind, if you get a kill while on the objective you get a defensive bonus and if you kill someone who is on the objective you get an offensive bonus which grants an extra 100 or 50 xp, i cant remeber which Also the mp5 is the only gun i grinded gold for amd the setup i have on it is abit wild tbh
They should just add the option to the Matchmaking, where Lobbies dont disband after 1 match, as that was such a good system within the Golden Age of FPS
The first 3 attachments you use are great and exactly what I use but the last 2 I literally never use because I’ve never had trouble with the recoil patterns of most guns in the game
If they are gonna add in game killstreak rewards it should have boost multiplier to ur ultimate ability. Cuz imo it takes a little too long to get it rather than ac130s and chpppers to have a killstreak reward standing out from cod
You mentioned that the MDR is garbage, but i've found that its super good at mid to close range which is really nice it can still kill at longer ranges but thats when it struggles, only gripe i have with it is the mag size/reserves, great video tho, cant wait to grind out the gold for the MDR hahaha
im mixed on the killstreaks point, on one angle i feel like it would slow down the gameplay, however when im frying a lobby it kinda feels like im not being rewarded
Killcams and search and destroy are the only two things I need to completely quit call of duty. No killcams leaves the lobbies very dry and quiet. And search and destroy is literally a must have for every shooter game. At least if you want the old heads to stick around
Funny how to me I've played both prefer XD over cod also maybe one thing that would be good in the future is limited time modes but make them permanent
Unfortunately I can’t no life this, I work weekends and even when I’m off on weekdays, I’m completely busy with having to do other things, so not only do I not get double xp when I CAN play, but I barely get time :(
I don’t get how you get such fast matchmaking load times in this game. It takes like 1-2 minutes for me to find a match!! Feels like I’m playing a loading screen half the time when playing this game!! I played Bo3 recently and it took me the exact amount of time. It’s insanely annoying how long this game takes, don’t know if it’s my internet or what but either way it’s so dumb. I’m not even in the SBMM playlist either!!!
nice lol. try out the m870 next. it's a monster. but you kinda need the heavy barrel to get more consistent one shots. can easily kill 4 people off the hard point.
How you mean Bro ? … you can inspect your weapon a bit in the load out lis list … Square on PS not sure your device ? Look bottom Left in load out If thats what you mean ?
I haven't seen the video yet if you already made it but could you cover your settings on controller? The game doesn't feel smooth to me but your gameplay looks great.
Just got tac 50 gold no boosters it’s took like 8 hours of playing 😂 also as a mouse and key player on every fps game I’ve picked I switched to roller and it’s so much better
I'm having a problem with match making. It takes FOREVER for me to find players or a match to join. I have cross play on and input based matchmaking on. Is it normal for it to take awhile to find a match?
I think input based matchmaking on pc makes the game harder. You only play against other KB&M players. The bots are controller players with limited aim assist.
I don't mind the grind but like what's the point of player level? Do you get rewards for leveling up your player level? It seems kinda pointless for me. If they did the unlock weapons with levels then sure but you get challenges so....
11:50 clearly not walls you just missed him. Shots 1-5: Clearly missed. Shots 6-9: Missed due to recoil (bad spray control). Shots 10-11: Very close, but recoil and inaccuracy make these reasonable misses. Shot 12: Likely didn't actually fire because you were already dead.
P90 enjoyers rise up. I'm saying it and I'll say it again. The p ninety is a phenomenal gun in x defiant, and people who think the m p seven and the vector are the only options are sorely lacking in in everything
*DROP A LIKE* for moar Gold Camo guns in XDefiant!
What gun should I go for Gold Camo on next?
My pistol gonna be gold before anything else
I'm working on the M9 atm and it's been not great imo
Personally I think M16

The P90 is one of my favorite guns visually.
one of the abilities literally gives you wall hacks merc… the guy that shot you through the wall probably had that lol
heres a tip: you can shoot off the spiderbot by looking at the ground and shooting
im mixed on the killstreaks point, on one angle i feel like it would slow down the gameplay, however when im frying a lobby it kinda feels like im not being rewarded
I want them to make a mode that adds a purchase economy similar to CS2. I feel like they could nail it…unlike Warface Breakout 😬
You are able to shoot through certain walls in the game, I’m not sure if that was one of them

Way better than the new Call of Duty’s. I haven’t played anything else after installing this game
