Call of Duty 2015/Black Ops 3?

I haven't actually watched the vid but I tried the longer barrel on Drift0r's reputation alone and it works brilliantly, effectively turning my beloved Kuda into a mini AR but without the mobility hit.

For you and anyone who can't watch it, basically it comes down to;
- Long barrel effects all weapon classes differently
- Long Barrel does not increase damage, only range
- On SMG's it is 25% buff to minimum damage range (effectively helps at long ranges but does nothing for your up close damage)
- Shotguns minimum damage range is buffed by 13% (same as SMG's, helps at long range but does nothing to improve OHK range)
- Pistols, LMG's etc a flat 13% to all ranges
- AR's doubles effective range of all AR's in game (that is double short range, long range, maximum damage range)
- Long Barrel is the best attachment for AR's
- Then demonstrates the HVK's 4 shot range, Man-O-wars 3 shot range, Shieva's 2 shot as almost across the map. M8A7 one bursts at any range as long you can keep it on target, XR2 is less good to due 'wobble' on recoil. Shieva's 1 shot headshot range is ludicrous.


Interesting results, my main problem with AR's getting such a buff from long barrel is that there are very places on the maps that have such long sight lines for it to be useful. Most people you come across are reasonably close to medium range where long barrel has no effect.
 
Good point. I wouldn't even consider running an AR after using a Kuda with long barrel. The sacrifice in mobility is just not worth it. Stock is much more useful on an AR IMO.
 
Been in absaloute god mode this morning on HC Deathmatch with my lil Pharo.

Such an awesome gun for HC games.

Just unlocked the Razorback or whatever it's called. It should be called the Widowmaker, it's a beast. I'm loving it.

What on gods green earth is with the connection/banding today?

Had about 10 games this morning, had one which was unplayable, everyone was 1 bar. Rest have been fine.
 
Guys if i buy a season pass will my mate get it to? (we do the share thing)

What does a season pass do exactly? Will we get 3 sets of 4 maps or all the DLC's that will come with this game? CDkeys doesn't mention what it actually does.
 
Not sure on the sharing thing but here are some details on the pass itself:

Bundle Description:The Call of Duty®: Black Ops III Season Pass delivers 4 epic DLC map packs in 2016 with all-new multiplayer content, including re-imagined fan-favorite maps from Call of Duty®: World at War and the Call of Duty®: Black Ops series, plus thrilling Treyarch Zombies content, all for one great price.* Fans that order the Season Pass will be among the first to experience the return of Zombies with "The Giant" Map in all of its undead glory on Day One. Set in a World War II-era research facility featuring the weapon-upgrading Pack-a-Punch Machine, re-live the chaos of Treyarch's classic "Der Riese" Zombies map, picking up the Zombies story with Dempsey, Nikolai, Richtofen, and Takeo where Origins left off.

It works with the destiny DLC so I can't see why it wouldn't work for the blops 3 season pass.
 
I bought the digital version with season pass and my brother has access to nuketown so pretty sure its fine with gamesharing as has been with previous cods.

It might download in time for double xp to end. :P If you have a mate with a disk or download on an external hard drive you could install off that I think.
