Call of Duty 2015/Black Ops 3?

It's a problem in the game i think, my PS4 is in DMZ mode and is always showing as Open and BO3 when released was always open. Now it's showing as moderate, tried everything and can't get it to show open again.

/edit. Favourite gun in the game for me so far is Pharo, seriously such a strong gun and can't wait to unlock all the other perks for it.
 
So Vahn has put a post on Reddit saying that the reason we don't have many HC modes is because there isn't a large player base. Obviously they've somehow missed that the HC player base isn't that big because they're removed 2 hugely popular modes!

So they left the hardcore crowd with 4 game modes? Including the terrible (in hardcore, in my opinion) capture the flag mode?

They could at least add a couple more additional game modes, doesn't even have to be as extensive a list as core.
 
Trying to play online last night was a right PITA, the matchmaking is still on it's arse, host migrations at the start of the game throwing us all back to the menu. Paint jobs going missing. Great fun ! :rolleyes:

When I do manage to get a game it is a laugh, can't wait to unlock the Argus shotgun, it's a beast. Having fun with the Pharo too and once I unlock more attachments, it should be even better.

good to know its not just me then.

My PS4 was showing open the night before. Logged on last night and it went to moderate. Got disconnected and re-connected again and it went to strict !!!

all without changing my network settings. PS4 has all the ports forwarded and is DMZ and the NAT test on PS4 network settings reported as open.
 
Try shutting down your PS4 completely and it should be back to Open, it's happened to me a few times over launch weekend and I resarted when I had moderate nat and it was straight back to open.
 
Playing last night was a pain :mad: it seemed difficult to get a game and once you did it was a laggy mess. Gave up trying and 6 of us went in a custom lobby :D Combat axe only or pistol and headshot only games are fun :D Even if we all end up in the same part of the map and the same person keeps winning :mad: :p

Sorry :o

It was a lot of fun though :D
 
Vahn's post on Reddit is here

While I do agree that the numbers aren't there for loads of modes, they should have given HC players the usual 4 modes.
 
but he makes a point you'll upset those who want to play hardcore CTF.

Somebody has to lose.

did that multiple times with no improvement.

Pretty certain some of it was due to the match making servers being FUBAR as the PS4 Internet Connection Test was fine.

Indeed and connections actually worked like they should do. I mentioned in a party the other day but there is probably enough people on here that you could get 12 players together for a custom games. Though I'm not sure your controller, TV, Blops3 disc, PS4, Mini Fridge, Desk, House or Neightbourhood could take that level of rage :p

I understand that but they've already upset a large majority of HC players by not including KC and Dom.

If I ever play HC I play TDM or FFA so it hasn't effected me though I would question how they chose the modes to include. I would think the most sensible way would be to pick the 4-6 most popular core modes and make a HC version of it which I cannot see including CTF.
 
PS4 ranges between 1360x1080 to 1920x1080, although much of the time the engine manages to hit the desired native 1080p resolution for extended periods . During the opening firefight in the Provocation mission we see PS4 kick off at 1360x1080p before ramping back up to full 1080p a few moments later - the switch is often barely visible due to softening effect of the AA solution, although some blur across distant details is apparent.

Xbox One is a different story, targeting a baseline 1600x900, , but after trawling through our captures it appears that the engine rarely - if ever - achieves this. Instead we're looking at a sustained 1280x900 resolution, even in less stressful gameplay scenes, with horizontal metrics dropping down to 1200x900 in more challenging scenarios - and the results are not impressive.

However, as we move into more open areas packed with greater amounts of geometry detail and more challenging effects work, frame-rates start to suffer on both consoles and the 60fps fluidity is gone. Performance ranges from 40-55fps and seem highly variable in motion, leading to inconsistent controller response and a stutter to motion we don't usually associate with the series.

don't believe its xbox one

My PS4 copy of black ops 3 mysteriously went to moderate nat yesterday despite having every port correctly forwarded AND set as DMZ while the PS4 NAT connection test said open.

I think the reason the Black Ops 3 servers can't open the correct port with your client is because their servers are fubar, and not because of any client side issues.
