Ultimate Guide to MW3 Zombies Season 1: EVERYTHING You Need to Know (New Schematic Farm Boss & More)

They really need to increase the stash size either by default or through unlocking more slots with challenges.

[@liebeuniversum4371]

Agreed

[@AdamsGoingGhost]

Yeah 10 is crazy low. Especially when you need ammo mods, rare tools and perks for camo challenges. Trying to store one of each mod alongside all the other stuff is pain

You are the only one I've seen so far mention the aether nest underground and the key to the secret door, can you please elaborate on that and the other secrets in the dark aether zone you mentioned at 0:55

[@adriana3959]

Doing the boss fights is going to be difficult for most people so they will probably die, Imagine going into a game and collecting all the items to get set up for the boss fights ( Pap 3, gold tool and all the perks) You stash them all and then you take everything in to do the boss and then you die and loss everything. With the stash being at only 10 items you basically only have 1 try at some bosses and then you have to go and grind and find all the items again to try the boss again, Hope that makes sense 😂 Just think they need to increase the stash size to at least 15-20 items

[@a1_reaper633]

Agreed

[@Dparkour13]

10 items is bat-shit crazy considering the number of perks & schematics in the game.

[@josetomascamposrobledano4618]

As someone who “mastered” pre-season”. The optimal strat was having Legendary tools and pure crystals in your stash. Since all perks are a low cooldown of 3 hours, they are not worth stashing… but having to wait 3 hours for a proper Dark Aether attempt is kinda super stupid!

[@iVatonage]

Every completed act should get you 5 more stash space

[@Dparkour13]

@@josetomascamposrobledano4618 Yeah, I ended the season with exclusively pure crystals and legendary aether tools in my stash, which helps a ton - but having to start every game without the perks makes a pretty big difference. As does starting with a wonder weapon, the optimal ammo mod, etc, etc. situation's even worse now because there's even more TO stash with all the new schematics, and no extra space to store it.

[@berserk2638]

I’d like to see a video of you discussing the community reaction to the changes for solo players. I think Treyarch should probably do an AMA where they at least justify some of their changes

True its made for team plays not for solos and thats a big L

Agree hopefully he will make this type of video to attract 3arc attention to this matter as currently its impossible for solo players to do anything.

I agree.. massive step back in regard to solo play. I get that they want to team aspect to play a big part but us solo players are getting heavily punished for no reason tbh

[@osirisa2034]

I feel like they’ve heavily nerfed the thermite crossbows damage, used to be able to obliterate tier two zombies with a grey weapon with one pack a punch, not the case anymore.

[@Jakariajin]

They have. Well when it comes to the cross bows the patch note said something about a 70% decrease when it comes to elite bosses in tier 3. Not sure about zombies

[@Frost-Kris]

​@@Jakariajin84% in t3 zone, 80% to specials and bosses

[@PotatoPL-]

Yeah they definitely have. It’s just not worth using anymore in my opinion. To quickly kill zombies with a tier two pack a punch I have to shoot them twice and that’s for each zombie. Previously I could throw a decoy and shoot the group and the entire horde would be dead

[@Jakariajin]

Something you may wanna check on. It appears as though the aether worm is attracted to monkey bombs when it burrows underground

[@LiveTUNA]

Season 1 100% destroyed and neutered zombies for solo players. I don't think Activision wants anyone playing zombies as much as they are so they made it impossible for solos to play. Probably investors got upset that the numbers aren't what they were promised because too many people are playing zombies and they aren't playing 6v6 MP and they didn't want the same thing to happen with BR. It's so stupid, they make an amazing game mode and then just cannibalize it to please the mega rich elites who have never touched a video game in their lives.

[@We_The_Lost]

In what what have they destroyed it in season 1 ? i not seen many updates so still catching up on whats going

[@OP__Aspect-m4e]

It's fine, things in games need to be difficult. Not everyone runs solo. If everything was able to be soloed there would be no challenging content for groups an it would be boring. I love the new update.

you have to start matchmaking at the exact same time, and you can check the lobby’s audio channel in the pause menu to see if your friends are in the list. if not, back out and go back in. a good visual example if you need one is the wildcat or vanoss video on mwz

Indeed. Idk about you but it just keeps going underground and only popping up once it’s hit me. Making it completely undoable.

It’s viable for solo but you gotta be a good player. You need cc and dps, frat/swarm kinda provides both. But rgl+lmg/ar is strong af

[@matthewdelaney5366]

How do you get 1ms latency?? What?!

[@AdamsGoingGhost]

I think these are great additions to zombies, but I really hate that the mode has gone back to completely neglecting solo players. I understand they have a certain vision for this mode and they want people to play in a squad, but the reality is it just means the majority of players won’t ever obtain most of the new content. BO3 made every Easter egg after SOE possible in solo, and the game’s popularity absolutely exploded as soon as they did that. That was the norm until now, and even though it’s possible to solo it’s pretty unrealistic. This isn’t traditional zombies though so I guess we shouldn’t compare. Just unfortunate that I’m almost done borealis and I don’t think I’ll play much more once I complete that.

[@thewildkratos6787]

I'm gonna be fair, as much as I love the flame thrower attachment, it's not as good as I'd want it to be. Maybe it's glitched but the Mangler was just eating the flames and I had the weapon at T3 pap and orange rarity. It's OK on Zombies but I really was hoping that it would do more damage
