Awesome, thanks for sharing! I will have to wait til next Friday for the beta sadly.
Beta is live on PS4. Any @PlayStationPlayers pre-ordered and will be on the beta?

Will get a pre-order in just for the beta.
Doubt Iāll actually buy it though.
Never played Blops 3.
Hopefully Iāll have a little this weekend, in the evenings at least.

Sadly not included in this beta.
I think they plan to have a separate beta later in the year, just for that mode.
Makes me wonder if the mode will even be included at launch.
Beta for Blackout is in Sept.

Hopefully itās an open beta.
I played a bit yesterday and had funā¦ the normal frustration with ācoreā of course but liked the fast paced run and gun that cod is really known for.
Iāll get a few more matches in throughout the beta Iām sure and look forward to giving blackout a shot.

I pre-ordered the game and will be online for the beta this Friday when it begins (XB1).
I played up until I reached Lv5 (which took me longer than Iād like to admit).
Specifically because that unlocked the āCreate A Classā option, which is one of the best bits of CoD MP.
It was a bit annoying that they didnāt explain how to change class before you unlock that (which you can, in-game), changing class was a bit more intuitive at least.
I didnāt get completely tanked and got some decent kills, though my aim is definitely out and I was scraping a 1.0 KD.
Some of the class skills are fun, others are a bit OP and a few seem relatively rubbish. Unsurprising really but it gets discovered quickly and you already find a lot of people running the same setup for that reason.
Sliding is a bit crazy, you go quite far, not too bad though. At least thereās no wall-running and only 1 class has a grapple-gun.
Iād be half tempted if there were a few others who wanted to play. I donāt think itās changed too much from the previous Black Ops iterations, which I did enjoy back when.

I will be playing it as I do with all the COD titlesā¦ how long it keeps me engaged though, only time will tell.
I liked that the kill cam showed whether it was a 1v1 or if you were gunned down by multiples.
Totally agree on the classes as well. They will need to do some buffing/nerfing I am sure to compensate. Also there were multiple times when I went to pop my skill and got shot at the same time and lost it which hopefully they fix that as well.
Changing the final clip to POTG instead of Final Kill was mildly surprising too.
Usually made for more entertaining watching at least. Unless I was the one getting gunned downā¦

Iāve seen a lot of mixed reviews regarding the first weekend of the beta. Mainly focusing on the body armour and max health. Hopefully they can make some final changes before the release in Oct.

Yeah, I didnāt like coming around the corner with multiple people having the body armor on and had no chance to get a multi kill really.
I likely wonāt care much about the body armor as I typically play hard core but for those that play core, there is def some things they need to iron out to put everyone on a somewhat even playing field.

Is preordering the only way to get in the beta? Is it a closed beta?
Yep its a private beta. Pre-order from a retailer to get a code or pre-purchase from the PSN/MS store to get instant access.

Yea I ordered from the online store to avoid the hassle of waiting for/entering codes.
i personally liked the beta and i like the direction of this game i really liked black ops 3 but didnt care for the wall running so this is really good for me but you mileage may vary
