    I loved this cats vs comets LMAO @CasNation

    This one is easy. I got it:

    ESO is a game I play.
    COD is a game I used to play, until I discovered games like ESO and realized I don't have to put up with fragile teenage egos in order to enjoy gaming.

    (Although, there are a few ESO players that make me wish friendly fire was a thing in this game.)

    ESO has shotgun aim. Point in the general direction everything has a 3 meter hit box especially rats and squirrels, that kinda crap. As stated above, apples and oranges, chickens and cows, rabbits and pigs, which ever comparison you prefer for two things that have absolutely nothing in common.

    Although I do like some shooters, I prefer more fantasy ones like Doom or Serious Sam or Duke Nukem. I never cared for ones trying to be somewhat realistic. I also play on PC, so aiming isn't an issue for me. I don't understand how anyone is comfortable playing a 3d shooter with a controller. I can barely walk in a straight line with a controller, lol.

    Actually, my interpretation was:

    Both Pizza and Australia are good even when they're cold, despite what people say. Even if Australia when it's cold can be a bit more deadly - Who am I kidding, Australia is always deadly.

    Both Cats and Comets have tails. Also, if you see a black one crossing the street you're pretty much dead. Whatever of the two it might be.

    Both Grass and Atmosphere are needed to survival and respiration. Go try to breathe with your face in the grass, 100% satisfied.

    Next set, sure.

    Even the fanboys seem to hate cod now, the infant warfare trailer is now the 2nd most disliked YouTube video. Unfortunately a bunch of them are going to jump on over to battlefield now with battlefield 1. However since the cod fan boys are all brain dead sheep they will still buy infant warfare even though they don't like it.

    Played most of the CoD series from the first, and most of the Battlefield games.

    Aiming on CoD is so mindnumbingly easy, even bunnyhopping, dolphin diving, target leading is easy, you can still double tap hostiles no worries, Battlefield takes more skill, as weapon handling is a lot more in depth.

    But they are FPS games, and not in the same gaming universe as ESO lol.

    They are going to be in for a rude awakening on battlefield. Actual weapon recoil ( not just gun jump animation), bullet drop over long range, leading moving targets (no teleporting bullets there). See what their k/d ratio is after all that.

    Lol, oh yea, think most of us who have played BF have killed en masse these CoD kids, they have no idea how to play BF.

    They really boosted my KDR on BF3/BF4:}

    I used to play CoD. I played several versions from CoD4, 5, Black Ops, MW2, MW3, BO2.

    My fav was BO. When they got rid if true dedicated servers after that (PC player), in favor if matchmaking lobbies and lag compensation, the game went downhill.

    One of the last times I played COD (MW3), I snuck up behind a player laying prone on some stairs and put 6 bullets in his back point blank. He should have been dead, but I ended up dead and then I watched him on the death recap.
    After I fired 6 bullets into him, he jumped up from prone, spun around, went prone and shot me. I will never buy another CoD game again after that.

    call of dutt has working pvp, but filled with idiot kids, maps are the size of a truckstop bathroom, and content is easier than spindleclutch scaled to lvl 10.
