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.
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 😎
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...
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
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
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!
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
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
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.
Hopefully merk sees this bc I’m curious I get it has no SBMM but why do I constantly cue into EU lobbies it’s happened multiple times at this point im us East and my connection is usual 30-50 ping on average on my servers but I continue to be queued into EU lobbies where I have over 130 ping and I cannot figure it out I’ve done everything I can think to fix the issue and it won’t work
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 :(
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'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 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....
"How do you get these bot lobbies" to answer your question... you ARE the bot. Thats why you keep dying. Cods sbmm was holding your hand and your not used to actually having to play the game and use your brain
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.
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
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
Nah sole reason why erik happy because he often 80% of the time get a lobby where there’s almost no sweat. Sole reason. to me Xdefiant nothing more than TF2 reskin/remastered depends on how you look at it
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
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
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
for having sweats in lobbies for me is sad. i can’t hit anything cause everyone is greedy. i’m only on level 2 for my first weapons! i haven’t even unlocked any other guns yet 😢
The annoying thing about Xdefiant on console you can’t just play with other console players like Xbox and PlayStation it’s the pc players that ruin it for us on console they are too sweaty
This game is fun, and also has an identity and knows what it wants to be. Not to mention it’s free. This game has the ingredients to royally shit on cod and force them to change their horrible ways. Nonetheless I want this game to succeed and it’s been enjoyable so far
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
I've played like 4 games last night I don't understand the controls on it wish it had like tactical like cod I got sweaty on sweaty lobbies I gave up and went to assassin's creed or resident evil to relax
I like the game. Is anyone else having problem with the Mini map? I feel like i cant see anyone on the map at all? Is there like some faction or are the red dots super small and very quick? I feel like no one is using suppressor but i can never see them on the map
Its your videos Merk. If you dont want to do pistols quads, im sure most of us would not care. Maybe title the video differently so it doesnt piss anyone off?
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
3:00 getting kills in this game isnt hard at all i easy get 30 -40 kills a game even hit 2 60 kill games and a 35 with the m44 only ppl complain and always will

It’s only escort, occupy and domination
@JoshElvy my point is it's overly saturated with escort
When it comes down to XDefiant's future, im excited for the possible new factions like rainbow, the division, abstergo, albion etc.
My only complaint about the P90 is the fact that it has the iron sights on a picatinny riser for no reason
Yeah. Why did they have to make that gun so tall?

has anyone leveled up the Vector .45? , with the heavy barrel and barrel extenstion? thanks
Weapons XP is outrageously slow.

1 min ago is crazy
Lovin this game atm it has such a good feel to it
Is anyone else having trouble getting in games??
Me
nah i’m good, though i’m playing on PC
It just takes some time to get a lobby
Restart the game solves it
Do you have cross play on?
for quad feeds with pistols id be fine with the echelon ultimate being the only one.
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
Play the occupy gamemode, the games last long asf. You can rank your gun up 2-3 times each game

Make 2 Videos for the quad feed with every gun, make it QUAD FEED WITH EVER PRIMARY GUN, And vice versa for the secondaries
Very entertaining video, this flew by unexpectedly :)
Looking forward to seeing more of this game, especially the Quad feed with every gun :D
I ended up getting 3 guns to bronze instead of getting gold. I didn't want to do it too fast too quick you know.

no sbmm ... and i get in the same lobby 3 games in a row with the same 5 stack dudes destroying the lobby ... yea great

Yeah taking a break till the movement is fixed. Was more fun in the tests cause there was actual penalties
erm matching the teams on your recent performance and over all stats , thats sbmm , try and tell me im wrong !.
