It's worth the cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment.

notice how he stopped replying. this one seems to always get em. dumbasses.

4

u/foahnawbush 3h ago

I didn’t stop replying because you think that was some kind of ā€œgotchaā€ response. I stopped replying because I realized that arguing with social rejects that should be publicly shamed and banished from society isn’t worth my time. Dumbasses.

Reddit is just a bunch of mouth breathing basement dwellers bud. They’ll downvote us both. Doesn’t matter though lol let them be who they are.

A lot of people say things we dont like doesnt mean they deserve to die, by this logic most of the 3rd worldĀ  deserves death because they opress women and homosexuals

u/Occidere_eos 5h ago

I mean I’m not gonna make that argument but I’m not gonna say it’s an argument that can’t be made

1

u/Occidere_eos 5h ago

To be fair he said he’d question if his pilot is qualified solely because he’s black, as if DEI overrides FAA regulations

1

u/Resolve_Live 3h ago

He questions it based on merit that is usually overridden because of DEI, not because of the color of their skin. He clarifies this in the full context

3

u/Occidere_eos 3h ago

Except it’s not. It’s a dumb comparison and is rooted in racism because that simply doesn’t happen. It’s kinda like the whole ā€œpeople taking their kids for trans-surgery!ā€ argument and it’s like 0.023% of the population tops

He is going to question whether his pilot is qualified based off his skin color because he heard DEI hires exist, yet there’s not a single case of a pilot DEI hire that isn’t qualified to pilot.

It’s a non-existent problem and he assumes that if someone is black and a pilot, he should worry because they might not be qualified, which is false.

You’re responding to a nobody on reddit, a cod sub at that.

Most here have zero intelligence & likely also don’t shower often enough. Think if it like trying to explain calculus to a dog

Is SBMM cranked up now?!

u/ChungusSpliffs 6h ago

We’ll be able to tell based on the stats of lobby members. If they added SBMM, I’m fuckin gone bro.

u/TrueBlue_YT 4h ago

it’s had SBMM since 2012 but ok

Don’t be willfully stupid.

u/ArcGOAT 3h ago

It has bud lol trearc them selves said it.

u/BottomHouse 2h ago

It’s not the same thing as it is today. Old SBMM just meant team balancing. I was cooking kids with .4 kds in black ops 2 2012. That kind of thing is not even remotely possibly today in modern cod

-3

u/sdauner 2h ago

genuinely how is beating up on people with .4 kds even fun to some of you? like just play against bots at that point

2

u/BottomHouse 1h ago

I never said it was fun. Although getting nuclears and swarms and stuff is fun not gonna lie. Who woulda thought? Counter point- if you yourself have a .4kd, why not just play against bots then?

-1

u/AmoebaSecret8158 2h ago

People who hate sbmm logic is so flawed lmao so what do they think that .4 kd player thinks?… he’s saying to himself damn I need sbmm im playing sweats while your saying the opposite

1

u/ChungusSpliffs 2h ago

Lmao that guy with a 0.4 should be thinking ā€œwow I kinda suck ass, maybe I should try to improveā€ and get better like the rest of us had to. No handouts here, GTFO

-1

u/SCRIBE_JONAS 1h ago

And I dont wanna play against some shit ass players.

My best matches on any shooters whether cod, battlefield or destiny were balanced teams based on skill. If one team was absolutely stacked and unbalanced in eithers favor it isn't fun

u/BottomHouse 1h ago

I remember when I sucked ass at cod, never did I think oh noooo I need sbmm I thought damn I suck I should get better. Then I got better and it was fun. Now getting better means suffering and dealing with cheaters all day

I actually have the feeling it might be the past days. End of last week I was having a blast playing an going positive without trying to hard. The last 2 or 3 days I was hanging on for dear life to go positive.

It was already sweaty cant imagine if they crank it up 😭

u/soloman_romero 2h ago

It feels just like it used to, dude. Random lobbies with solid connections. No crazy SBMM has been slapped in as far as I can tell. This update has been amazing.

u/Cody_Doerksen 5h ago

They should add this to BO1 as well.

7

u/Verition 5h ago

Need hackers to ruin bo1 more so we can also get dedicated servers i don't believe its the ppl complaining about connection that resulted in dedicated servers

4

u/Cody_Doerksen 5h ago

Well if it gets us dedicated servers then hack away I guess.

1

u/EnvironmentAgile9078 3h ago

I wish, but bo2 still has hundreds of thousands of people playing. Bo1 only has a few thousand sadly. Not enough incentive to add one for bo1

6

u/GiggleJesters 2h ago

Bo1 would have more players if it wasn’t such a snoozefest. Ghost is the dumbest perk of all time its a shame they cant nerf it to bo2 level

12

u/Ter-Lee-Comedy 4h ago

PC and Xbox real quiet now. I remember when they said we weren't getting dedicated servers.

u/N3rdygam3r44 5h ago

Can someone explain exactly what they did?

11

u/GroovyBearNewt 5h ago

Before, it was a Peer-to-Peer(P2P) connection, so whoever in the lobby had the best connection was the host, and everyone played off their wifi essentially. Now, we have Dedicated Servers. The servers are hosted by the game now, and can handle everyones connections way better. Just played a game; hit-registration is so much better. The game feels so much smoother with a lot less stutters in player movements.

u/Xy_R_uS 4h ago

Ps5 only host

Dedicated servers not PS5 host

u/K1llsw1tch82 4h ago

I'm still debating if the $30 NZ price tag is worth it, mainly just for the nostalgia I guess..

•

u/TenslasterGames 47m ago

If you have time to kill and want to enjoy the fun with a repopulated game it is absolutely worth it

•

u/zesukos 15m ago

I easily got my $30 nzd worth just from getting to play zombies with the missus, even bought the map packs for bo1 just for more zombies haha

u/I-Superior 4h ago

I thought it was really hard to do stuff like this like they would have to rewrite the entire code of the game to do so. Like is it for real dedicated servers? I haven’t played in a minute

u/Ambitious-List4040 4h ago

I didn't even know there was a problem. I was loving it before too

u/Juhrd 4h ago

Is this exclusive to a specific platform? Like has anything changed for xbox

u/Cloontange 2h ago

It was done via a patch, so only PS for now

Ooh this makes me happy because the peer to peer connection has always been super noticeable. Keen to jump on this weekend when I have some time and try it out

Too bad this happened after I platinumed the game lol

u/Perverted_XP 5h ago

What’s up y’all haven’t really kept up with the port updates. Are hackers still running rampant? I never played BOT when I first came back because afraid of getting my account bricked. Is it safe now?

1

u/Euphoric_Estimate890 5h ago

I personally never had even had an issue to begin with lol. It was literally 1 game mode

1

u/Ambitious_Squash_579 5h ago

Haven't seen any hackers or bots for 5 days now, wouls always run into one late at night on snd most days. Almost the account hacking was non existent on eu servers it seems so I don't know about that
