    when the map first opens up I just look for a scavenger contract that's got a buy station nearby. In Trios or Quads it makes for a great jump location. You either win any initial fight without losing anyone and can get a loadout before the 1st circle starts closing / 3-4 minutes before most teams get the stimulus loadouts, you win initial fights but lose 1-2 players and have somewhere to buy them back right by you, or you lose and rejump.

    that has been our strategy as of late. land near Scavenger, get decent guns and alot of quick cash. spend the cash on an early loadout drop. from there we play the circle or look to possibly go after a bounty contract.

    For a long time I was strongly against buying a loadout drop early, but over the last 2 weeks or so I noticed that we were consistently dying early in matches to people that already had their guns. Just seems that having your loadout guns as soon as possible is a huge advantage in a gunfight.

    A side note to all of that, played last night after the update and it almost plays like a completely different game.

    We made a 2-3 nice runs in the couple hours we played, but over over we were landing in spots and it had 4+ teams all there. Even if we tried to go a bit outside our normal spots we still ran into multiple teams.

    Not sure yet how I feel about all the additions, seems all of them are an attempt to push action:

    fire sale - we took advantage each time and surprisingly never ran into trouble or got killed by another team. Seems this allows almost everyone to get a self revive, so thats something to always remember

    Supply drop - we shot one of these down and in the process had to deal with 2-3 teams. It was absolutely loaded with great gear so if you can survive its a nice boost.

    Most wanted - concept is interesting but we didnt run across it much last night.

    I brought my 2 fallen teammates back like 3 times in 5 games with a most wanted + camping at the edge of the circle for 3 minutes or however long it takes.

    i don't know how y'all feel but playing solos is a fucking CHORE in this game. the closing circles is obnoxious with everyone just camping in a corner.

    I think I've played solos less that ~15 times. Would rather roll the dice on a fill-trio just because the game mode is more fun and you only really need one solid teammate that doesn't bail like a bitch after losing their gulag.

    looking forward to the Grauzone nerf this season. It needed to happen.
    got converted to the PKM life this weekend by a guy that joins us every once in a while. by far the best player I play with. plays a fuckload and plays in $ tournaments (206 wins, 3.11 K/D 900 top 10s and 9.4% win percentage) *plays with paddle controller. Dropped him PKM with a 2nd loadout for me to try and it's pretty amazing.
    Monolithic, snatch grip, tac laser, vlk 3.0, stripled grip.

    ADS is faster than any good grau/m13/m4 build I've used. damage drop off isn't noticeable within 100m and it's probably 3 hits to crack someone. recoil pattern is very controllable (almost identical to M4) and if you mount something it doesn't move a bit you can crack a sniper in one burst. only drawbacks are the reload time obviously and a slightly worse movement speed and ADS movement speed. But it's a hoss for quads/trios wiping an entire squad in one belt. Just need Amped perk and a decent fast SMG which even the gray Mp7 works. Our crew all switched over to it in the past 48 hours and I'm getting 6-8 kills a game minimum on decent runs with 6 Ws in the past 2 days.

    worth giving a shot if you wanna try a new gun. gotta have it leveled up to ~52 for the tac laser which is a pretty big factor

    Anyone else having some serious lag issues after the last update? My connection seems stable from a stats standpoint but every game I’m jumping around making it almost unplayable.

    Going to try a hard wire connection to see if that fixes it but not sure what to do if that doesn’t.

    It's the only one I can get 3+ kills in, lol.

    Don't see me ever winning one. I usually just join squad fill.

    I’ve got a handful of wins with my friends in quads or trios, but we usually ended in the top 10. After playing a couple rounds last night, I don’t think that’s happening anymore. I don’t have an issue with increasing the amount of players, but I think 200 is too much.

    Did they give the option for more contracts at the start of the match since there’s more people?

    -Supply Run contracts. My squad started doing that first. Easy to do in the beginning of the game since only one person, needs to start the contract and while a teammate still floating can finish it by landing on the designated spot. Free self-revive in the first 2 minutes of the match

    I have never played a modern game on PC before. Downloaded Warzone. First of all, the visuals on PC are a cheat code compared to PS4. I can see much better on PC and changing the FOV is also a cheat code.

    I am a fucking potato with a keyboard and mouse.

    That's my goal. I use a Strikepack on PS4 (just for back buttons, not giving Scuf any more money) but it's weird to get it to work on PC. So, I ordered the official back button attachment so I can play on PC. I'll buy Cyberpunk on PC too.

    Probably need a better mouse and probably keyboard tbh. Been playing FPS games on XB with a KB+M since division 2. Grew up playing Counterstrike for 1000s of hours so it’s just natural for me. Basic 2-button mouse won’t cut it for CoD. Logitech 502 is great. Need access to more buttons for the RH and it has 2 bumper buttons for thumb. Also has stupid high dps. Use the Razer Taurus Pro keyboard and it’s got a 4-way thumbstick lets you do a lot more with the LH.

    half of what separates bad from good players is using a basic controller vs one with paddles / basic KB+M vs gaming ones.

    I don’t see how people play games like this with the basic controller. Taking your thumb off the stick that controls your aim so you can jump/duck/reload is asinine. And using the “claw grip” sounds miserable

    Back buttons help without having to move your thumbs off the sticks. For me, I’ve been pressing buttons with my right hand’s fingers for years. On a keyboard it’s opposite. My left hand just doesn’t feel coordinated enough to press the right keys.

    I use the extra mouse buttons for sprint and crouch.

    Always try starting with mouse but end up switching to controller, cause I’m a potato too. Will eventually stick to it.

    Just got back from a few week vacation... Fucking 45 GB update is insane

    Think I am about to use keyboard/mouse. Logged about the same amount of hours in CS back in the day and think I'll transition easy even after so many years on Xbox controller. I will say I'm a plus sniper with the stick.

    I try to jump on a most wanted right out of the plane on the outside of the map, it seems like no one messes with hunting those early in the game. Then just loot while that time kills on that.

    Not gonna fault anyone for not wanting to spend ~$200 on a nice paddle controller or KB+M setup. There’s a big learning curve at first for either of them. Once you get that muscle memory down though

    usb adapter to get additional input spot. can just get a basic one that gives you more usb inputs or something fancy like Xim Apex has a phone app that lets you do a lot more fine tuning and lets you play with KB+M on games that don't support KB+M

    always get a pretty funny reaction when people ask what my sensitivity is at in CoD and I tell them 20. I still have it pretty damn high in the Xim software I think it's ~33 regular and 37.5 for ADS

    Been on Xbox for a decade, but getting a new pc on Thursday. Anybody know I have to buy MW on pc? Or can I dl it for free bc I already have an Xbox copy?

    Edit: Nvm I googled and answered my own question. For those wondering, you have to purchase a separate copy to play the full game, but Warzone is free.

    i used the grau for weeks because it was "the best gun" but i switched last week to Aydan's m4 loadout and it feels amazing

    monolithic suppressor
    corvus barrel
    50 round mag
    commando foregrip
    rubberized grip tape

    it's not great long range but it finally does the damage that i see other people on streams do
