Subject: BR, Firefight, and Recon

With all the talk on these I figured I'd lay it out.

BR: There are those that love it and those that hate it, so lets address. Yes it's gone but the new scoped/silenced pistol and SMG more than make up for it, and for those that think it's too much well it's confined to campaign and firefight so there shouldn't be a problem.

Firefight: Frankly, you'll either love it or hate it. I personally think I'll like it for when I finish campaign but there are the people who think teamwork, more maps, shootin up random waves of coves, and no storyline interrupting is bad(yes I'm biased) you guys still have the new maps.

Recon: Where do I start. Well, for those people who painstakingly finished every vidmaster achievement and entered every recon contest this is blissful heaven. For those who thought it would be nice to have recon but did the vids' if you were on that day this is good but not overwelming news. Then there are those who don't care one lick about recon and it doesn't matter. I fall somewhere between the 2nd and 3rd myself but everyone has their preferences.

I think this is a pretty good breakdown and depending on the response I might add more.

You better close this sig when your done.

BR: Glad its gone but we can still use the other BR!
Firefight:It will be a lot of fun, but I probably will get sick of it after a while.
Recon: I'm doing the vidmasters, I haven't tried any of the contests. If the new achievements are too hard then I won't get it, but if there not then I'll try at least.

Almost my stance exactly:)

I was never BR crazy and always looked down upon BR-worshippers, so this pistol is a welcome change (in the demos it looks friggin' sweet!).

Firefight will probably be a lot like Horde to me. I'll be obsessed over it as soon as I complete the campaign, it will have a LOT of hype during the first month or so, and then it will be noted with interest.

Go Rams and Missouri!

I like the BR not being in it, and I won't like Firefight if there is no matchmaking. It's not exactly easy to get a party of 4 people together. I won't wear Recon unless the Vidmasters are hard.

Yeah I'm looking forward to the pistol and firefight too.
