New Warzone Map Discussion

Speaker 1

Matt , let's just do it .

Speaker 2

That was so lazy .

Speaker 1

Yeah , like you If you're thinking too long , you're thinking wrong . Well , hello listeners and welcome to Entertain this , a podcast about movies , TV shows and video games . My name is Hayden . With me I have Mitch and Tom . Hi , tom Mitch . Has Elon Musk screwed up our Twitter ?

Speaker 4

No , it works fine for me .

Speaker 1

Okay , Well , we're not verified though .

Speaker 4

We can't be for $8 . $8 ?

Speaker 1

Isn't it like $8 a month . Yeah , have you seen the things where people are getting verified for companies that they're not really verified ? They're not companies that exist . I think I saw a news article where somebody posted that they're the pharmaceutical company that makes insulin and they said guess what , free insulin .

Speaker 2

And like their stocks just crashed . I saw one thing he's like posted something , he goes . I don't know who's in charge . And then , like the next comment is him , he goes . Oh wait a minute .

Speaker 1

He's just trolled himself .

Speaker 4

Well , speaking of Twitter and social media , mitch , well , you can go to our Facebook group and page , which is EntertainThis Podcast . You can also go to our Twitter , which is at ThisEntertain , or you can go to our Instagram , which is Entertain this .

Speaker 1

Yep , and we are not verified . So if you want to make a verified , Entertain this podcast Twitter account and just hijack our stuff . It'll probably be pretty funny , so go for it .

Speaker 4

But we will find you .

Speaker 2

We have a particular sense and we won't do anything about it .

Speaker 1

We'll just make another podcast and talk crap about you . Go entertain yourself , yeah . So All right , we are discussing . We've had what .

Speaker 2

OK , we're talking about Freebird . Oh , it's the trailer . We have never seen a war so lively .

Speaker 1

That was a cool trailer . I like that trailer .

Speaker 2

Free bird .

Speaker 1

But , um , anyways , yeah , we have . The game came out Thursday For us , it is Sunday For you . It'll be less than a week when you listen to this , since it came out .

Speaker 4

It'll be tomorrow morning .

Speaker 1

Right , so it'll still be less than a week , so we've had a couple days to play . Unfortunately , all three haven't had a chance to play together , but I've played with both mitch and tom separately , so I will be the uh , the keystone to this operation . But we'll start with mitch . How is your experience with warzone so far ?

We'll start with the bad and end with the good I've had .

Speaker 4

I've had a good you know good experience when it works , yeah well , it's only like these last two days , for some reason , like it kicks me out when I try to sign in . But other than that , when I've actually played , it's been a blast . I've done better in this Warzone than I ever did in the other one .

Speaker 1

Yeah , that stuff actually works .

Speaker 4

I can actually shoot people .

Speaker 2

I mean , warzone 1 was buggy , was it ?

Speaker 1

when it launched .

Speaker 2

At the very , very beginning , I don't remember , or we would get kicked , or we couldn't find lobbies .

Speaker 1

I think I've just separated all the happy moments of Warzone 1 and then cherished them so long ago . But I will say this the feeling that I'm starting to get for Warzone 2 feels like Warzone 1 , year one . It's getting that way .

I'm still suspicious because it's a video game , but maybe in I don't know three or four weeks , when they work out all the kinks , it'll be awesome . So , but I also am thoroughly enjoying it , even though I lose miserably every time I play .

Speaker 4

But yeah , Well , we did pretty good though the other day . I mean , we didn't win or nothing like that , when we played .

Speaker 2

I mean we could all play tonight and win .

Speaker 4

Possibly If .

Speaker 2

Mitch's Xbox was .

Speaker 4

But we played the other day and we both got several kills .

Speaker 2

I mean , I did pretty good last night when me and you played , you did , tom . Until I was soundly defeated by rocks .

Speaker 1

Yep , your mortal enemy .

Speaker 4

Now , when I've played like even solos , I've finished in the top ten like a handful of times .

Speaker 1

I managed to win in solos . So if you haven't had a chance to play warzone , we'll talk quickly about some of the big differences , uh , from warzone 1 to 2.0 , and I think the biggest difference is obviously the map . The map is just , yeah , and very uh , organic like it's . It feels like every building is individually designed .

Yeah , even they might not have , they might have carbon copied , you know , sections of building and spread them throughout the city , but it feels like there's so many , it feels like they're at least spread out enough to where you don't run into the same building over and over and you know , we're watching other streamers and stuff playing and , uh , they're talking

about how every building they go to they're like I don't know what's inside yeah , I don't know where to go .

Speaker 2

I don't know where the staircase is .

Speaker 1

I don't know where the corner is , and it is very confusing because you'll be up on a roof and you'll be like , all right , this is the one point of entry , is this one ladder by this roof right ? And then some dude is able to parachute , or there's a hatch you didn't see , or there's a door or whatever . So yeah , it's . It's a lot to learn .

The learning curve is going to be tough for this one .

Speaker 4

But I do feel like because of the size of the map and the way it flows . One thing I wrote down was it feels a lot more like an actual Battle Royale than just like a big ground war game mode where it's just constant fighting 24-7 .

Speaker 2

It's like one thing we were watching there . We talked about the looting . Yeah , with the looting in this one , it feels a lot more like an older Battle Royale , like PUBG or Blackout , versus what we knew in Warzone .

Speaker 4

Hit the box and just run across it .

Speaker 2

Which was just like he called it hoovering your way , just vacuuming up stuff Just vacuum up the loot and keep moving . Yeah .

Speaker 1

I like the loot . I am an older Battle Royale player . What's so funny is because Battle Royale still feels like a new game mode to me .

Speaker 3

Yeah .

Speaker 1

It's been around for what ? Almost 10 years ? Has it been 10 years ?

Speaker 2

No , it hasn't really it's almost been 10 years . It's probably been about eight years .

Speaker 4

Probably at least eight Wow .

Speaker 2

Well .

Speaker 1

I still am like . You know , battle Royale , what a novel concept . But you know they keep saying this is an older style of Battle Royale , especially with the looting system , because you have to manage your loot and you can't just suck up everything , like they said .

But you know , I kind of enjoy that because it forces players to take their perception off of like they can be distracted or something , and that's when you can catch them with their guard down and stuff like that , instead of just constantly looking for you , constantly killing you .

Speaker 4

One thing I kind of like is the fact that you can manage what you're carrying . If you want to carry 16 plates , you can . It just cuts down the amount of ammo you can carry , kind of like .

Pubg , you can manage what you want and what you want your classes , like the other night when we played , when we ran into that stronghold area I had like six grenades so I just started lobbing them just to get rid of all the AI .

Speaker 1

so we could get in there . That was a good idea . I wish we thought of that .

Speaker 2

We just have to shoot them .

Speaker 1

You know , I think I will start carrying more throwables , because I usually just like get two throwables , an extra stack of plates besides the one I have ready to go , and then a self and gas mask and stuff like that . And then , everything left inventory-wise , I just put ammo for my gun variants .

Speaker 2

I normally do three stacks of plates because I think it's five slots you have for a small bag , if I come across plates .

Speaker 4

I'll pick up everything until I'm full and then , once I've gotten a full bag , then I'll kind of manage if I find something else I want .

Speaker 2

Because I normally do AR SMG , so I'll have reserve AR , reserve SMG , and then the next three slides will all be plates .

Speaker 1

Yeah , yeah , well , I don't know . I've never . There's only been like one time where I was like I'm out of plates , I'm in trouble , you know , and I have only had two stacks of plates with me .

Speaker 4

Well , with this game mode where you have to manage your inventory and stuff , I've kind of gone back to like the PUBG style where I carry two guns of the same ammo type , because I mean I you can carry so much ammo . Well , that , and you know it actually it actually does factor in with your weight , of your character .

It'll make them run a little slower if you're carrying a bunch of ammo and stuff . So if I just carry one set of ammo , then I can just keep using that one . I have two guns with like 5.56

[Ad] Call Me By Your Game

or something like that .

Speaker 1

Yeah Well , so I still we can talk . All right , let's move on to this . So the weapon damage is definitely different for this game . I was maining a sniper and then having like an SMG or shotgun secondary . I know shotgun and sniper is stupid , but whatever and I had .

I was sniping up on a tower one time and I shot this guy full plates in the head right with like one of those like .50 cal snipers . What's that new weird one with the magazines on the back end by the buttstock ?

Speaker 2

The Lynx .

Speaker 1

Yeah , that one .

Speaker 2

That's one of the guns it introduced .

Speaker 1

Yeah , it's a really powerful sniper , right .

Speaker 2

In the head . It's .50 caliber .

Speaker 1

Full plates Did not down him , just broke his plates . Oh , so you

(Cont.) New Warzone Map Discussion

can't one-shot people anymore with any gun .

Speaker 4

Well , the one guy that was on the roof that time that me and you played , I one-shot him Now . He might not have had full plates .

Speaker 1

I don't know Was it blue or was it purple .

Speaker 4

I think they were blue , so it must have been two plates , two plates is blue and purple is three . But I one-shot him in the head , he went down .

Speaker 1

Yeah , so that I kind of miss the opportunity of being able just to take a person out when I announce myself with a gunshot .

Speaker 4

Yeah .

Speaker 1

If I miss , that's on me , right , but if I shoot the guy and the time it takes me to chamber , that next . I'm looking for his other teammate Right , but if I shoot the guy and I break his plates and it takes 30 seconds to chamber the next round he's already gone or engaged me or whatever .

Speaker 4

There's nothing you can do about . He's replated . Let me say most of the time if you've hit him he's already gone to cover and then reload , or reloading his plates and stuff like that by then .

Speaker 1

So so I'm on the fence about that . Um , especially too , because uh , shotguns are basically useless . In war zone there's the-barrel shotgun is useless .

Speaker 4

Now I think anything with a magazine-fed shotgun is pretty useful inside a house .

Speaker 1

Yeah , if you want to use shotguns , you have to use as many shells as possible that you can load into the shotgun , so maybe like an 80 or 12 tube or the magazine-fed one 12 tube or the magazine fed one . Then you have to have the the fastest um . What's it called the um pump , not the pump , the thing inside of it , the receiver that chambers fastest .

Yeah you have to have the fastest one in there , and I mean it negates probably slugs see . The thing about slugs , though , is if you miss one , you all of that spread . Damage that you would have had for a buck is like null . So , if it takes three shells of buck to down a guy , it would take pretty much three slugs anyways .

So you might as well just keep buckshot on and you know if they're 10 feet away with a slug compared to 20 feet away with a slug . The accuracy is just off the wall .

Speaker 2

No incendiary with the doof-doof .

Speaker 1

I haven't got an incendiary unlocked yet . I have one shotgun left to finish before I get an incendiary . But yeah , yeah . So the damage output is very strange . It still feels more weighted towards SMGs and ARs .

Speaker 2

Yeah , but even that , like you have to be close . Yeah , you're not beaming dudes across the map with no recoil .

Speaker 1

But I will say marksman rifles have definitely got a big buff , like a big point of interest in this game .

Speaker 4

Yeah , because the time it takes , it's useful .

Speaker 1

Yeah , the time it takes for you to snipe a guy with one shot chamber the next shot and snipe him again . You can get three shots in with a marksmanship rifle . If you hit him once in the head , even at purple plates , I still think it breaks him .

Speaker 4

Also , I had one game where these guys , or this one guy , had snuck up to like a loadout and he had crouched down next to it and I lined up a marksman rifle and I shot him , hit him twice I think once hit him in the head and then after the recoil I brought it back down , shot him and hit him in the back and his plates were broken .

He just jumped over the ledge and parachuted away . So I don't know if he got his stuff or not , but he took off running and didn't so and then .

Speaker 1

So like that's kind of what I'm on the fence for . That's the good , the bad , I guess , and the ugly for me would be the lag . Like the lag has been just brutal . It's been super lag .

Speaker 4

I only had lag .

Speaker 1

The one game I played with you , it's been the past 24 hours , I've played probably maybe 6 games when I played like the day it came out .

Speaker 2

There was a couple games that were super laggy and like every day like I've played it , it's been like games where it's flawless and then games where it's just lag-tacular , you can't do anything yeah like here's my funny Warzone story .

Speaker 1

So I'm running and then I hear a vehicle and I turn and then the game lags and I'm frozen , all right . And then I now know what it means that phrase where one man's heaven is another man's hell . Because I saw the car , it stopped , I couldn't do anything because the game was frozen .

And then it jumped a frame and he was , like you know , protruding through my body and I was already like half dead , ragdolled on his windshield . I see the guy like in the windshield , like like , looking at me , and my body smeared up against his I bet you're wondering how I got here .

Yeah we're going through the powerpoint slide by powerpoint slide of my slow , imminent death and him just enjoying every moment of it .

Speaker 2

He was playing already . He was playing warzone by power .

Speaker 3

Die Just be dead please .

Speaker 2

But I mean like that lag will just destroy it , because like we were playing a game and it lagged , like at the end . Yeah , I think , I was on like eight or nine kills . You had like five or six , yeah , and like we were annihilating everybody . We came him and then I'm in the building but then I'm not . Hayden died , came back to life .

Speaker 1

There's a couple times where weird things would happen , like I put a bomb drone out in a door and you couldn't , I got stuck .

Speaker 2

Hayden was just stuck there . He couldn't move . The bomb drone had exploded but he didn't exit out of the animation . He's just sitting there staring at the tablet .

Speaker 1

Yeah , so I was . You know , that cost me a game right there . I think you died . I think I brought you back . I don't remember , but it was still a pain . It was annoying . So what's your crazy Warzone stories ?

Speaker 4

The proximity chat , oh yeah . That is pretty funny Because of the proximity chat . I was just playing solo and I turned my microphone off to where they couldn't hear me talking , because with the charging mic that I have , it buzzes , so I didn't want to just give myself away .

Speaker 2

So I was just sitting there

Warzone Proximity Chat Stories

just here .

Speaker 4

So , I turned my microphone off to where they couldn't hear me talking , but I could hear others .

Speaker 2

Yeah , who was hating it ?

Speaker 4

It microphone off to where they couldn't hear me talking , but I could hear others . Yeah , and I was hating this for her dad noises this other guy like . As I was coming getting close to the spy station trying to get stuff , all I heard was the uh , the uav activated .

Uav , he like activated like three or four of them and then he goes I see you , I'm coming to get you .

Speaker 3

I was like okay .

Speaker 4

So I jumped and climbed this ladder . I got on top of this building to where the only way up was the one ladder right . I put a mine there and I put one of those sound suppression things to where it disorients them and I just waited and I waited and he goes .

I'm coming up , you can't stop me , and I'm just like okay , Because I could still hear him running around . So I heard him running , I heard him climbing the ladder , but it wasn't the ladder that he was supposed to be on .

Speaker 2

So he climbed me and so I looked and I just popped up and shot up in the face and all I heard was I forgot about proximity , chat playing solos and I just heard two dudes talking to each other , like they're just having a conversation , like yeah , it's like , yeah , it's like all right , yeah , yeah .

And I see one of them like we both kind of scared each other because I wasn't expecting , I thought he was gonna be a little . One of them was the other one was on the ground . So I see him and I go , ah . And I just start shooting him in the face . And the dude's like yeah , yeah , anyway , yeah , I'm going to grab him , oh my God .

And he's just like done . The guy's like what happened . Because he can't hear it and I staring at this town , this dude's like running around looking at me . Jeffrey , jeffrey , are you okay ?

Speaker 1

and .

Speaker 3

I just want to be , like .

Speaker 2

Jeff's dead . You're next .

Speaker 4

I was watching one where these three guys were in a vehicle , like I was just watching a video and they were driving up . They're like alright , hit the music and they started just playing like random , like Spanish music , the door just blared out pretty much it blared out .

The other people are going , like the people they were attacking , like I can't hear anything . And then there was another one . When these people were going up , they were talking and they're like hey , come out of the building . No , the people inside the building like no . They're like , all right , let's switch modes . They started talking in Spanish .

Speaker 2

Coordinating don't know what they're saying . So if you're bilingual you have a huge leg up , just like a . It's like all right . It's like come out . No , no , she's . Oh my god , they're nazis .

I agree , when I was doing the stronghold thing in solos and this dude like snuck up with the ais and like I'm shooting theIs and I get to him because he's just stood there and looked at like he didn't shoot yet , yeah , and I took one shot on him and I saw the purple plate thing and I went oh , no , it's like , like , I like jump up and like try to

like engage him and he just annihilated me . But I flipped my mic back on . I was like I'll be back , I won my gulag . I get to the gulag and the dude's just like hey , he's like sarah . He's like , yeah , he's like we're gonna gang up on the juggernaut because if we all kill him , we all come back . And he's like are you ?

in and I'm like yeah that's such confidence yeah as he fades to the back of the room so it's like all four of us were just like in agreement .

Like I heard like four like me and the other dude and then two distinct other people , and then like , apparently the good just ended , like we didn't fight each other , nothing happened , we just spawned back in and I flew all the way across the map to get back to the stronghold because he had my loadout guns and I'm like , and I want it back .

As I'm parachuting in , I I flip my mic on and I go da-da-da-da-da , da-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da . I'm just like doing the whole like Flight of the Valkyries . I land on the roof , pick up a peanut and run downstairs and I was like why ? And the guy's like I hear him like ah at the same time . He's not fully dead . He's just on the ground .

It's like I'm dragging my balls across his face .

Speaker 1

I can't wait to see all the betrayal stories and stuff like that that people will make compilation YouTube videos out of . What I want to know is the gulag is friendly fire on .

Speaker 2

No , it's not . I tried he's already tried . Probably with me . He probably looked at me , not you . I thought he was me . He probably looked at me because me and him were in a good light , not you . It was a guy before .

Speaker 1

But anyway , to see people that kill the jailer because it's really hard to kill a jailer , yeah . To see a team of four people put their differences aside and agree and then spawn back into the map , back into the war zone , and just be like all right .

Speaker 4

I'll be honest . I'll tell people I'm going to team up with the jailer and first chance I get I'm going to shoot them . My objective is to eliminate the other people . If I kill them now , they don't come back .

Speaker 1

I don't like how there's a timer . Yeah , that is true .

Speaker 2

Because that's gotten me a couple times .

Speaker 1

And another thing that I learned the hard way is if you're down and you have a self-res . And the hard way is if you're down and you have a self-res and you see your little health ticker go out before you die , you bleed out when you start resing . Your health ticker still goes down while you're resing .

Speaker 4

Oh , so it's not

Warzone Gameplay Feedback and Tips

like the last one , where it just stops .

Speaker 1

Right . So if you wait to the last little hair of your health before you know , you milk it as long as possible to try and start resing yourself and then res yourself . It'll die while you're rezzing , and that pissed me off so much . I should have told us that , but whatever .

Speaker 2

I feel like I should have been informed . Yeah , but I was not .

Speaker 4

I do like the new gulag where it's two on two . It gives you something besides just one guy . It's different .

Speaker 2

It is very different . I wish it's always pistols .

Speaker 1

It's always freaking pistols .

Speaker 2

But at least I can blame someone else .

Speaker 1

That is true , yeah , I'm usually the guy that's getting blamed .

Speaker 4

I've won every gulag .

Speaker 2

I've been in so far .

Speaker 4

I've only been in three and I've won them all . I've been in a lot Out of the three times that I've been in the well .

Speaker 2

most of the time I survive until right when the gulag is done and then that elevated spot on the left or the right . But I've had three gulags and I've killed five people . Would you shoot a guy in the crowd Boo Pow .

Speaker 4

There's two enemies each time , so I killed the two enemies two times and then one time one of the guys killed one guy and I killed one guy .

Speaker 2

I forget it's a 2v2 mechanic . I mean , I like it , it's different .

Speaker 4

It just gives a little bit more , it's not as annoying as it was .

Speaker 1

Yeah , One thing that is annoying the vehicles .

Speaker 2

Yeah , the mechanics for driving are so bad .

Speaker 1

I mean , they definitely have not as crazy of a turn radius as they did in the old game and the helicopter feels like you're flying weighted .

Speaker 4

It's almost like you're the helicopter's the only thing , I've driven so far .

Speaker 2

I haven't flown it . I've driven several of the cars .

Speaker 1

It's very sloshy , like it doesn't turn Like you and Warzone 1 , you can just like like zoom to a building and basically crash . Yeah , like I can fly through , like under bridges , and do all kinds of fun , stunts and stuff . This one's , like you know up .

Speaker 2

Is that what we want to do ? What are you crazy ?

Speaker 4

It's high up up there . Another thing I'd like to say is the ground loot stuff is actually pretty good . It's not just random . No sights , no attachment guns like last time .

Speaker 2

It's not like a hunk of crap . I pick up that I'm using to hold me over to get to my loadout .

Speaker 1

The way that they have made loadouts so kind of hamstringed . I didn't like at first , especially when you pick your perk system and there's only one perk system that has overkill , because I really wanted overkill and high alert . But you know , the ground loot guns are so good .

You might as well just get one solid loadout with high alert in it and use your go-to gun like mine is the Marksman rifle and then find a like the P90 . Ground loot guns are awesome . That's a great gun , yeah .

Speaker 4

So Well , and I found out that so is the Fennec . I found like right now , suppressors and the ghost perk doesn't pretty much even work .

Speaker 2

Yeah , I've heard dudes shooting , suppressed at pretty good distances .

Speaker 4

Well , you'll still show up on the mini-map if you shoot like constant , like with a suppressor . Really , yeah , I don't know if that's supposed to happen or not . The ghost perk doesn't work if you're sitting still , you have to be moving while you have ghost on .

So what if I'm just like in a room just running in circles , like you have to be , I'm sure , assuming you have to be moving , like in a certain amount of space for it to work ?

Speaker 2

interesting , be like , so like if you're just hanging , you know yeah , there's no gonna be some team of dudes , cold-blooded and ghosted , hiding in a bathroom in a house , making no noise , and just circled which I mean . I think that's kind of dumb , though , because because that's the point why have the perk ? Yeah , why have it then ?

Yeah , just eliminate the perk , yeah .

Speaker 1

Yeah , Well , I mean , maybe they'll tweak it .

Speaker 2

You know , Another thing that's a big pain is when the loot you kill a guy and his gun drops and the loot that he has explodes off the overlapping of loot .

Speaker 1

Yeah , like the collision detection , for the loot needs to display out better .

Speaker 2

so you can individualize , or if I go over , like in PUBG , I can hit start Right , everything is shown .

Speaker 1

And I do that because it feels almost like PUBG a little bit . So I walk over and I'm like I can't pick up this thing . So I press the start button and it brings up like a menu . I'm like no .

Speaker 2

I want to get to the loot . I want the ammo . That's what I want . I was losing it the other night when me and him were playing , because I couldn't pick it up , like it wouldn't give me the , I couldn't key onto it .

Speaker 4

I had a problem where I accidentally dropped my gun that I was using and picked up this other guy's gun that I didn't want , right . But then , because he had died , his bag was there and I couldn't get past the bag to get back to my gun , right .

Speaker 2

So I was just like well me surprise it .

Speaker 1

If you have time , what you can do is pick up the crap and then move away , and then drop it all and then go back and get what you need .

Speaker 2

But I shouldn't have to .

Speaker 1

You shouldn't have to do that , yeah .

Speaker 2

Because in real life , if I want to get something off this table , I don't have to pick up the table and move everything into the other room just to get a pen .

Speaker 4

That's fair . You know , one pistols in the initial jump , yeah .

Speaker 2

Yeah , I don't get shot out of the sky immediately by some lunatic going pa-pa-pa-pa-pa . It's like oh .

Speaker 4

Yeah , at least you get a chance to get to the ground and get a gun .

Speaker 1

You can't even melee in the air . I don't miss that from Warzone 1 , where you're like , all right , yay , I finally get to enjoy a night of Warzone and the first jump you have and you're out of that plane because the whole team is just like that guy .

Speaker 2

Him in particular , half-naked Viking man .

Speaker 1

You took your first breath and a half of war zone and you're just like , well , it's going to be one of those nights , huh .

Speaker 4

It's going to be one of the view-it nights .

Speaker 2

I'm going to be spectating a lot , aren't I ? Welcome back to the Mitch and Tom show . Yeah .

Speaker 1

But there's a lot of potential . I feel like the game is pretty . I really like the lighting and I like how dynamic everything is .

Speaker 4

I know some people complained about it , but I like the audio . I like the audio a lot you can hear footsteps , you can tell where explosions and gunshots are coming from .

Speaker 1

You can hear footsteps for days . It's almost off-putting how like , because you're like there's a guy right next to me . And then you'll pull a UAV and he's like three buildings away and you're like why does he sound like he's in the bathroom right next to me .

Speaker 2

Yeah , he sounds like he's right behind me going they're running and stomping their way through . So , how do I run ?

Speaker 1

normal , not stomping your feet .

Speaker 2

Remove boots . Run with socks .

Speaker 1

Dead . Silence Permanent dead silence .

Speaker 2

So but yeah , there's already been hackers and stuff in like the multiplayer , but I haven't come across or seen anything for Warzone .

Speaker 4

Oh , give it time man I have come across , one that was sus , because in his kill cam . I jump out the window , run left , and then I know I crouch , walked back right underneath this little cover and then I poked my head up in the one hole in the wall and he was already aiming there and killed me .

Speaker 2

What Mitch didn't know . He was communicating with his other teammate in the proximity chat and he just didn't do what she was listening to .

Speaker 4

I mean , it was solo but oh , okay , I see where he's going to look , but like he watched , and then he just tracked me as I walked across the wall and poked up and then shot me .

Speaker 2

So it's a little sus .

Speaker 4

Is he at ?

Speaker 1

a UAV or something .

Speaker 4

I don't know .

Speaker 1

I mean the UAVs don't ping that fast .

Speaker 2

No , it doesn't , there's a delay on it , but did any of y'all do any stuff ? I sent you fancy stuff no I actually worked pretty well .

Speaker 4

I went to the firing range and was playing around with it I , I haven't done .

Speaker 1

The only thing I did was the fov . I haven't done all the other uh aiming stuff .

Speaker 4

So you'll have to show me what it is I mean , to me at least it feels like it reduced some like the visual recoil and stuff . So yeah , maybe , maybe .

Speaker 1

What did you ? Uh ? What'd you think about dmz ?

Speaker 4

I liked it . I was telling Tom I think I was telling Tom the other day that there was one time I was playing with these two random guys . I know I was telling my brother . But we drove to this area . We were just picking up random stuff because like we didn't really know what to do . It was the first time playing .

But like I broke into this safe , killed all the AI that came in because they abandoned me and just left me . So I killed all the AI , took all the stuff out of the safe and then they wouldn't come back and help me . So I just got in the vehicle and drove to the X-FIL .

I killed all the people at the X-FIL and then I got in the plane and I just left . I left them and just took all the XP for myself . They just took off and ran . They wouldn't help me .

Speaker 1

I played three games of the first because you have like three factions that you can choose . You can choose one of them to basically like quest through and do all their quests and get all their gear and whatnot

[Ad] The Gaming Blender

. I did everything up to where you pick your first faction to go through and the one time I exfiled successfully was great because I got a ton of XP for doing that .

The second time I was this close to X-filling because I was with my team and I got into the helicopter and I saw two dudes jump in and I was like you're not my team members and they killed me . And they threw me out of the helicopter .

Speaker 4

I was like my stuff . I did see one guy that I think it was TikTok or YouTube , but I was watching and basically it was a whole team just sitting in a car next to an ex-phil . They sat there and they just because in a car you can kind

(Cont.) Warzone Gameplay Feedback and Tips

of like third person over the wall oh , yeah . So as soon as they saw these people run towards the helicopter , they drove the car out right into the back of the helicopter , right at the ramp . They didn't drive it up into it , but they drove it where basically they blocked that entrance .

And then they got out , ran and jumped in the side doors and just mowed them down and took all their stuff and left . But they just sat there on the other side of the wall in this car and just watched .

Speaker 2

That's some crap we would do .

Speaker 4

It's impressive , it's impressive , it's like weird men , dark left .

Speaker 1

It's impressive how fast people can find ways to exploit stuff like that .

New Warzone Features and Strategies

Speaker 2

I'm just enjoying being in this weird time where there's no meta , there's no awesome strategy . Go here , this is the best spot to land , this is the best weapon . The vanilla year is the best year . Everybody's just kind of running around trying to figure out what to do Learning .

Speaker 4

Another thing that I like is the strongholds Granted . You have to fight the AI and you give away your position .

Speaker 2

The AI is tough .

Speaker 4

The AI is not to be messed with At least the strongholds seem to , at least for now , have good loot Like it's worth doing . Yeah , you get a loadout , you get your loadout . You get killstreaks and stuff .

Speaker 2

Because , like when we would do , because we landed at the Heights or whatever . Yeah , that area yeah , I don't know what it's called , but it's like southeast-ish on the map but there's one building there . That's like every time .

I only I think one time we landed there it wasn't highlighted as it could be a potential stronghold , but every time I'm like , oh stronghold , sorry , it wasn't this building , but I go and loot it and I come out with like $20,000 and like five , you know , attachment weapons .

And I'd be going oh hey , there's a precision airstrike or UAV here and this is a really good SMG if you want it .

Speaker 1

I kind of wish they had different killstreaks , though . I mean because the precision and the mortar they're basically the same from Warzone 1 .

Speaker 4

Well , I do feel like they do a little bit better job of getting you what you want out of them , because it gives you a warning , but it's not like for 30 seconds , like , oh , here it comes , it gives you 30 seconds to run away .

Speaker 2

Yeah , I'm getting like letters in the mail , like precision next week when we did that stronghold .

Speaker 4

Those guys were sniping . We jumped out of the thing . They started sniping at us . I backed up , hit a precision and he took one more shot at me after I'd already activated the precision and by the time they jumped in the truck it started to drive both . Both of them got killed by it .

Speaker 1

But what about those other killstreaks in multiplayer , like the one that shoots out those chlorine clouds and stuff like that ? Why can't we have those where they shoot the gas ?

Speaker 4

They might include those later with strongholds or something like that .

Speaker 1

I think that would be cool to have more Juggernaut , more like terrain controlling .

Speaker 2

If that was a thing where it's like you know 30 000 bucks you could buy a juggernaut yeah because I mean I don't think I've ever , I mean I've hit like 20 000 , yeah I do .

Speaker 4

They do have like a special hidden things also , because I watched this one guy . He dove in and at the bottom of the water there was this , this hatch , that had like $15,000 .

And then it had like a gun , a couple of plates and like , I think , a grenade , but that was like he dove straight out of the plane into the water , grabbed that and that was like his first thing . He opened .

Speaker 3

Yeah .

Speaker 2

And then there's another spot that had like an underwater entrance into this building that you wouldn't know unless you just went under this water and went through . Yeah , which is pretty neat .

Speaker 1

I thought there was going to be still a lot of exploring content to come . Yeah , you can tell they have a lot of stuff still in the works because DMZ isn't technically out yet .

Speaker 2

It's still a beta , yeah .

Speaker 1

And I'm getting tokens for playing it for a Battle Pass that doesn't exist for DMZ yet , so I'm sure that it'll have its own thing or its own unlock system or whatever .

Speaker 2

The Battle Pass is weird .

Speaker 1

I kind of like it though .

Speaker 2

You know I like that if I play Warzone , I get tokens to unlock stuff in the Battle . Pass , right , I don't have to spend real money . Right , I can play the game , get the points , use the points in the game and get the stuff . Yeah , well , I think that you .

Speaker 1

Like God freaking intended . I think that you have to buy the Battle Pass first which we all did .

Speaker 4

Yeah , if you pre-order , or the Vault Edition comes with the Battle Pass .

Speaker 1

Yeah , ours came with it . But I mean , just save up your money for the next one .

Speaker 2

I mean I still haven't even used all the tokens . I still got like 40-something of them .

Speaker 4

Because I didn't want to go find the Jack Link's beef jerky , I bought me a ghillie suit . That's how I got my ghillie suit .

Speaker 2

Oh yeah , you spent real money .

Speaker 4

Yeah , I wanted a ghillie suit . I have to have a ghillie suit .

Speaker 1

I need to hide . That's how I play this game .

Speaker 4

I'm just right around his ghost going like Is that an enemy of mine ? Well , is there anything ?

Speaker 2

There's nothing we can do . I already offered our services to him . We'll be his entertainment . All right , cool .

Speaker 2

And then he makes us do a cease and desist on our own show .

Speaker 1

He'll probably fire two of us and be like only one of you can do this , you know , like the rest of his Twitter staff .

Speaker 2

No , the student that he'd fire you to , but He'd fire you too , but I'd be the only one .

Speaker 4

Tom's like . I don't know what I'm doing .
