You don't need scuf controller to drop shot, you can do it with normal controller.

Who said you did? Its much easier and a lot faster with a Scuf though I had one on 360.

I assume people are remapping controls to use dropshotting to the right stick to make it easier as the melee in this game is pretty naff.

I don't get it, how can scuf controller help you or make it easier to drop shot?

I guess it depends on your controller layout. IF you're using tactical anyway with crouch/prone on the right stick then I agree I don't see any advantage with a scuf controller.

Edit: Thinking about it pressing a shoulder button for fire and a paddle on the back for crouching/jumping simultaneously sounds unnatural. I vote a standard controller would be easier regardless.

A scuff controller will have paddles of the back on the pad binded to a specific button, in that instance the 'o' button so you can smack it to dropshot without moving your finger at all.

I haven't noticed a lot of drop shotters on the xbone.

bobbyspangles · 10 Nov 2014 at 13:53

I don't have so much of a problem with dropshotting but jumpshotting makes me blood boil. Probably because I can't do it very well

Hardly anyone playing on that platform, that's why.

Ba-dum tish!

Is there an in game player count?

What are people recommendations to unlock when prestieging? I'm thinking hardline might be a good one - uav-counter-bombing run. Might drag my k/d above 1. :/

antijoke · 10 Nov 2014 at 14:10

No in game player count for some odd reason.

I unlocked scavenger. Seemed the most useful thing for me considering the scorestreaks are rubbish and I have the best weapons unlocked at the start (AK12/BAL).

Next token will unlock wildcard for perk three permanently.

With a scuf you can keep the default map so the melee is still easily accessible on the thumb stick and the two paddles on the back are mapped to crouch/prone and the other is jump making it much faster and also easier aiming whilst using the jump/prone buttons with the paddles.

Do you have a Scuf Quinnaay? I use to have a Hybrid for my 360. I've been toying with the idea for the PS4 now the 4PS is out.

Wyrdo · 10 Nov 2014 at 16:46

As long as they patch it so Pablo from Guatemala isn't host every damn game I'll be happy

Thunder is great, about the only COD you tuber I watch now. At least he gives you what he really thinks and not 'oh it's amazing' constantly.
