Absolutely! Give ppl a reason to grind! Make it reduce the cooldown by 1% or say 5 Minutes permanently every time you extract the schematics and set min. cooldown to like 1-2 hours. Ppl would go ham on it!
I mean, as seen in the video, you still have some time to grind tier 3... You don't need to wait the whole 3 days... But I understand the frustration and agree there should be a way to cool down the timers faster
@@Doughnuts Ton of ppl arent interested in grinding when the game is only 45 mins. Some players just arent good enough to get out of tier 2. Cool down should be a thing in this game if they're going to force DMZ nonsense, which they are. And this is why glitching exists.
@@texasrattler1325yeah exactly, this lost my friend due to sheer time. He likes it just doesn't have enough time, when we're talking dark aether it's just ridiculous to also work on the first round getting everything up, so it's like an hour and a half total. Not going to work for people with other activities.
How to get players to play more… Ask them wait 48-72 hours to create good items again. The legendary Aether Tool is probably the only fair cooldown time at 24hours.
Stash size and cool down times are my only real gripe with mechanics rn. Basically I only hit tier 3 once every 2 days because by the time I get my perks and pap 3 I only have like 13 minutes left in the game!😂
@@NCTACODepends how you play. The new containment level helps a lot. Wuth that playing solo is a bit slower but not much, use a vehicle to move to contracts faster, and if you go straight to twir two and do deliver the cargo contracts you have a built in vehicle, don't waste time fighting , just run. If you get to pack one and have a minimum of a blue tool, go straight to hvt contracts and move fast, don't loot, takes literally 15 minutes tops to hit twir three, with a team, have one guy do contracts , tge other two loot and sell, money flies up quickly. Then, honestly you don't need pack three wuth a team in teur three, three players with pack 2 can do the job really well. If I can play teir 3 alone, then a team of three can do it with pack two. The real issue is most players don't take advantage of having team and play solo or ditch the team when someone goes down or just runs off doing whatever.
@@deadbrother5355 modern gaming in a nutshell it’s not about fun anymore it’s about macro transactions and useless skins that they keep shoving in your face retro gaming for life!
the crazy cooldown is the sole reason why people doing tombstone glitch, no matter how hard they fix the glitch, as long as we dont get any feature that allow us to reduce cooldown, people still gonna find and use the tombstone glitch
Now that I have all of the camos for MW2 and MW3 done the only gun I use is the ram 9. It absolutely shreds. Ram 9 with at least epic tool and pap 3 with jugg, speed, and deadshot… you’re just chillin in tier 3. There’s nothing you can’t deal with
Got to say probably favorite mwz guy simply cause of your attitude. I'm telling you when got 6 in dark aether and crashed, I'm probably done for at least a week, or until I can turn in the game and not be pissed. I haven't had a single crash the entire life cycle until today broke out classified and pack 2 crystal to crash. I don't get to mad just get rest of clarified, flawless and scorcher schematic to recover to get to 3rd contact in t3 fighting my 3rd solo mega, guy wants to party up to getting t3 and bang corrupted file. I lost everything including the game. Got the game back but lost all operators gear, classified for 3 days etc. I was looking for my dog to kick (not serious) but you always take it with a smile
You need at least epic rarity and pack two with deadshot, stamin-up, and speed cola to defend yourself. Or blue rarity with triple pap with the same three perks.
Question: Why is the server keep going down every day? I lost all my stuff every time for the last week. At least 7 times. This is getting really frustrating. I'm about done with this DAMN game.
Let‘s be real here. The only fun way to play this game is to go to Tier 3 straight away, grind it and then go Tier 4-5 every single round That way you‘ll get best stuff for the next round nearly infinitely, unless you‘ll be extremely unlucky every time, which is highly unlikely This way you’re guaranteed at the very least PaP 2 and Epic Tool for every game you play. And I‘m talking solo! If you team up with other people, you’ll be pretty much golden for every game you play with Classified Items and Weapon Cases
The most frustrating barrier in MWZ is how rare the epic and legendary ether tools are. You can farm your punch 3s but zone 3 is still rough unless you get good RNG on ether tools. I had a game today where I went immediately into zone 2 with a blue tool and punch 1 crystal, farmed all match and just never got an epic tool. Complete waste of 45 minutes as I’m back to doing the same the next game and praying for a tool to drop that will let me go into zone 3 in the 3rd game.
This example is fine but most people (new people) may not have a 3 plate or large rucksack which they may need to use their money to purchase those items. Plus you make this look real easy
I think that's a fair statement. However, I would argue, if you don't have those items already, you aren't ready for a Tier 3 run. Plus, you saw how many perks I was getting during the contacts. There's many ways to get geared up in game. It's not like zombies where you go from nothing to everything in one game and stay there forever. It's a lot longer gameplay progression. But good point!
What they should do is reduce the cooldown with successful exfils like they do with the insured slot weapons. But yes they should absolutely have a bigger stash. I mean to do the easter eggs you need a total of 8 items, so If you aren't doing it in one go and have to grind out getting the easter egg items you're only left with 2 slots.
They need to fix stash size soon, I already had golden plates on and a set in backpack and it’ll let you waste and apply a pair even if you already have them on and it was my last ones, so here I wait 48 hours for another golden plate
I agree with a lot of people who say exfilling with schematics you have should reduce cool down time. I don't even craft pap 3 anymore because I have so much in my stash. Doughnuts btw it's " WATTSON MAIN". Hope all y'all have a good day
They need to make it like DMZ. Exfill with certain items get time off possibly working your way to a few hrs. But your dedicating a couple rounds to finding items for a significant amount time.
As my camo grind goes on, my main issue is that I always run out of aether tools if I play like 6 games in a row. Every game I just grind 1 gun and as long as I finished my camo goal I'll extract. Each game lasts only 20-30mins while maybe I just did 1 outlasy contract for the whole game. Outlast is the most efficient for most camo challenges for it provides consistent zombie spawn and boss spawn (tier 2).
I wish they would just listen to there fan base lower the cooldown period. 3 hours max is acceptable on all schematics. I work a busy job and can only get 1 high level game in every 3 days as I have to wait for cooldowns. I feel I've be cheated out of £70
I get the point but 3 hrs for a triple packed athirium crystal and a legendary aether tool plus the other schematics feels way too op it should be like 5 hrs minimum
Ironic how the most common aether tool is the “rare” rarity lol, love your videos Doughnut! They’ve helped guide me on MWZ, when I first got into it I backed out immediately bc it seemed too complicated but your videos helped me get a hang of it! Now I throughly enjoy playing it :)
Thanks for all your videos, anytime I want to learn any new info in MW3Zombies, I check out your videos and clips. Keep it up bro. Always helpful. I only added my 2cents on this clip bc I also wanted to try and figure out the best way to get started each match if you didn't have access to rare schematics. I noticed how u put in all the time testing and I really respected that bc I do the same thing
Why even have cool downs at all? I don't see the positive impact. Stash should be 3 large rucksacks at leastand there should be a bank on the map to deposit unused essence.
My easiest way to essence. My weapon of choice, wsp swarm fully kitted out. Take in a tier 2 crystal. Stay in tier 1 and do multiple bounty contracts. I killed 2 manglers and 2 mimics yesterday in less than 20 minutes. The swarm packed twice annihilates the bounties. I had 21000 in less than 30 minutes. Ran in to tier 3, packed it, and killed the megabomb before the storm even moved and finished the act 3 mission for it. I love the swarm. It tears thru everything.
If you see cargo delivery in t3 bring decoy grenades drive as close as you can throw the first 1 if you need to get into the building and the 2nd right before you open the door to get the car. I get a way with using a 1 plate vest its easy money. Avoid throwing 1 of your decoys if you want to use it to pick up the rewards but its not necessary just quicky grab everything drive away and drop what you dont want later.
Realistically, it's feasible to run Zone 2 on a Blue Pap 1 gun.... Just suggest not picking up HVT's in case it's a disciple. That definitely requires at least a Blue Pap 2 with DeadShot and Shock Mod... But that's for more experienced players and this video seems to be geared more towards all players. It's a great informational video.
Had to subscribe after a week of binging your videos. Great content super personable straight to the point. Thank you man. I just started playing zombies and had no clue what I was doing until I stumbled upon your videos. Thanks brother!
Best perk for this is Death Perception. See thru walls and grab every cash register, Merc stash, and Aether chest. Easily grab an extra 2-3k cash in that first 16 minutes that it took to get to T3 in the first game.
I still haven't done the worm... sadly I don't think I'm good enough to solo it and I haven't been able to get a group together to attempt it in game :( Also no luck for the purple tool schematic. Fully agree on the increased stash space! Thank you for the video :) Edit: PC
I usually put in the game chat if anyone’s attempting or needs to do a red worm run. I do this with 2 other friends, so that’s 3 willing to help already right off the bat. We usually average anywhere between 5 - 8 players total fighting it. At the end of the fight, I give away my schematics because I have them all already, so some people might get lucky exfiling with 2 or all schematics.
Also, with 200 rounds and 400 round mags, and picking up dropped ammo, you can mow thru zombies in an exfil with the swarm. It's very fast! My total count yesterday for 1 match was 648. Zombies is fun and not too hard if you plan your game. But I won't touch tier 3 unless I have a full packed gun, lots of revives and armor. Or the golden armor and my hellhound. Abominations are easy if you have a tier 3 dog.
You’re suppose to go into tier 3 with no weapons. I usually go in with just my aether blade. If I do carry a weapon, it’s either scorcher or vr11. Depends if I want to scout the ground or air. But if none of those, I don’t carry a weapon into tier 3. Only way to outrun everything except dogs which is why the blade is equipped.
Lol I mean... The point of this video is to show that you don't need to rely on all the most powerful things to go into tier 3. Wonder weapons and whatnot lol. So that's cool but, not the point
Just to note that Ram9 is a beast of beasts, and WSP 9 is very overlooked it has really good headshot damage but typical body damage and a slower fire rate, it is better than most when you hit headshots but you have to hit them there is no spray and pray out of trouble like the top weapons.
Fun fact but for me, when I finish a zombies match it says next to my xp the “insured weapon and schematic time reduced” so if you do the unstable rift it would say 72 hours reduced
Spore contracts are the easiest one, only if you can handle around of 40-50 zombies following you, so doing those in red zone can make you get 10k+ in a few minutes
For RedWorm, you can pre-prep using a “durable gas mask” x2 purchasable in the tier3(red-zone), along with “sentry-turrets” x3, plus there’s a gate that shows up once the RedWorm is eliminated that can be opened using the triangular-sigil-stone as a key, which exfils you from the game successfully. But here’s a thought…can you keep playing forever in the aether-storm using the “golden-gas-mask”/“Golden-Armor”/“DogBone-hellhound”/“aether-blade”…if so, how long until the server just crashes or kicks you out for a new list of players on the server. Lololz😂
Insured Weapon Slot timer reduction should apply to all craftables. Max craft on anything should be 24 hours and scale down from there. Stash size increases should be unlockable like attachments via contract completion milestones. Like, complete 100 contracts for +1 stash up to 100 total. Then when they introduce new items to the game increase the max stash size by 10 per item to allow more account progression. Make a contract algorithm that dictates no more than 10% of contracts can be "protect the data" contracts. Funneling merc content that is 2-3x the duration of other content timewise in a fixed duration game mode is not good. I frequently just pick them up and insta abandon if Im running by one.
There’s an EE type thing in tier 3. If you go to the gravestone (I don’t remember exactly where it’s at) you can give it your pap gun and it will return it as a normal gun and give you the crystal for whatever level it was at
Thats a cool strategy but what I usually do is carry a epic tool and pack 2 crystal to start the game with four perks and any extra gear necessary to survive or make the match easier, after getting tier pack 3 I run with a four to six squad and go to the regular or elder dark aether to get fantastic loot
You should use tac stance aim on the Ram 9, gives you an extra slot for an attachment to improve the tac stance spread and recoil etc and the visibility is miles better!
Thanks! For this detailed comparison. I’ve had to grind to get to tier 3 many times and the only thing that stinks is the ones who glitch are in their from the getting go claiming all the contracts 😔
Great vid. I feel like using meta builds with Rare tools and PaP2 is doable in T3. Great strat with farming those contracts. Don’t sleep on lockers, epic comics are worth $780
My favorite thing about MWZ, besides the lag spikes, is that amazing stash size! Im sure you can throw all three of those epic tools right into yours cause it's so spacious along with all that other loot! Also, why switch the weapon? I thought it was to test the quickness to get to a certain point in the game. Your control was using the same weapon and build to figure this out. Switching the weapon changes the entire video...
Guys you only need a purple tool and level 2 pack o punch both of those things can be made pretty fast what I did was save my schematics for a few days and went in with nothing. And I’m also not doing more than 2 or 3 games when I play.
Once you complete a contract in Tier 1 or 2, all contracts will give the same payout (if you complete 1 tier 3, all of the tier 1 contracts will pay the same as tier 3
I am not a good player so I don't roam around in tier 3. But if I am in a hurry to pap a weapon I don't like. I will do tier 3 deliver cargo because I go right to tier 2 deliver cargo in the southwest area of tier 2 there's 2 of them if you want to stay on this section or switch east to west is the deciding factor on which I do first. Those 3 contracts have a chance to pap 1,2 or all 3 tiers and improving rarity. In 10 minutes.
This is going to take more research, I've been trying to figure this out myself. The main reason people do Tombstone is because of this. Playing the whole to only have 17 minutes after Pack Three is ridiculous.
Bro I get so much money from random loot! I found a piece for 3k the other day and an origami horse worth 1k! I always start my game by looting EVERYTHING in my path. You get 5k fast af.
They need to let successful exfils reduce time, and the longer you were in game rewards you with more cool down time coming off so people couldn't just spam exfils
My issue with MWZ T3, is not doing T1/2 contacts to get there... it is that T3 barely has contracts by the time I get there. I've gotten there when there are 0 contacts. I think they need to increase the respawn of those contacts.
That essence glitch is weird. One second, I had enough essence for an item in the buy box, then I didn't have enough when I went to buy it. A couple zombie kills later, and it said I had enough again.
@@csquarednc The weird part was the item showing red in the buy station, with my total when I tried being over 20k, then went to 8k and wouldn't let me buy a sentry.
I’m new to MW3 so excuse me if this has already been brought up but I feel like if they increased the gameplay time to 1 hour it would make all the difference.
Season player tip sounds weird and strange but don't use your Epic tool into your one when you fight and do the contracts because then the game May read it as you don't have much on your gun and it may give you that Crystal that you wanted earlier
I try to have at least a rare PAP 2/epic PAP 1 weapon before heading into T3. The only problem, i've been having lately, is that there's already scores of people in T3 taking all the contracts, so I'm usually farming HVTs in T2 until I see a contract in T3 that I can grab.
Same. If you don't bring in everything you need to just go straight into t3 you can't. By the time you earn it all in match, so has everyone else and now there's 5 contracts and 5 or 6 teams constantly fighting over them.
I gotta get back to completing my spreadsheet, but its easy to exfil with at least an Epic Aether Tool and a Raw Aether Crystal, maybe even Refined. Reward Rifts drop Perk Colas almost always as there drop rate is high. This starts a loop. If you keep his up you wouldnt have to worry bout the cool down times.. In all honesty, i dont think much of the Cod community was ready or is ready for a full on looter shooter.
For the red worm, normally it would be unsuccessful unless there was 5 or more of us and all fully-kitted. Today, someone wanted to do the red worm and there was just 3 of us. The worm was bugged because it only took 30 seconds. I was so anxious about us surviving, but it was too easy.
I agree doughnuts that pack a punch threw is great and important but from my experience the legendary tool is more Important. I say legendary cuz it's obviously the highest rarity and since we are talking about the high pack a punch which is 3 I figured the best way to compare. The way I did it was I took a pack of punch 3 only weapon in tier 3 and tried doin contracts and just survive. Then I took the same gun and exact setup to tier 3 again but this time with no pack a punch and only a legendary tool on it. I felt I could hold my own way better with the legendary tool then I was able to with the pack a punch 3. Now obviously the goal is no brainer, pack a punch 3 and legendary tool both, plus it's way faster to get I think like 2000 or 5000 essence and go buy a wall but gun in tier 3 zone that has the legendary rarity already equipped
Really not sure how you can say that "It really shouldn't skew our results.." after upgrading your weapon from a Blue rarity to an Epic Rarity. Blue Rarity is 100% bonus weapon dmg, equal to PaP 1, while Epic Rarity is 200% bonus weapon dmg. Id say numbers wise, and TTK, a 100% is a major difference in damage.
Very true, but there's nothing I did in the video with the epic tool that I couldn't have done with the rare tool. This wasn't a measurement of how effective weapons are, it was how fast you can get to tier 3 PaP. Rarity doesn't have that much of an effect on that
Realistically if they removed the cooldown and put up the stash by loads it will be an incentive for people to play more. Idk why they dont just do it.
The only problem I have is stash size and the rarity on aether tools. My stash is LOADED with T3 crystals, aether blades, golden plates etc. But then I play a game and can stash little to nothing because my stash is already full 🙃🙃 just looking for T3 crystals at this point. Still need the classified schematics gonna give it a run tonight
I guess someone forgot to take the deposit to the bank. I went to a cash register last night in tier 2 and it had a 100 essence and a 500! Blew my mind and gave me enough for the buy crate!
I don’t really understand the flawless crystal cooldown.. the legendary aether tool is far more valuable imo as you can quite quickly get to pap 3 in game. Uncommon - 2 Hours Rare - 5 Hours Epic - 10 Hours Legendary - 24 Hours Fair enough so far. Raw Aetherium Crystal - 8 Hours Refined Aetherium Crystal - 16 Hours Flawless Aetherium Crystal - 24 or 32 Hours right?? No, 72 Hours. What.. who at made that number up?! Also, there should 100% be a way to upgrade to legendary in game like we could in previous games.
Good idea. For me, since I play every couple days I can craft it and have it ready for when I run some contracts. I also don't have the scorcher scheme either 😢
I was using the stock stinger (i think thas the wsp pistol), which i believe has no upper or headshot multiplier, at the time of S1R, it did like 24 damage, and i believe it took me like 8 shots to he body and arms to beat a Z1 🧟♂️.. that should put it at around 200 health. Going into Z2, i got a estimate that the health was around 8-9 times higher than Z1 (lines up with another person test). I cant recall the gauge they got for Z3, but im gonna trust hat estimate. With that being said, you could figure which weapons deplete that much health as quick as possible, and it would show you which weapons are defint viale for Z3 entry with as little as tools and crystals as possible.
I've been seeing more pack 1 & pack 2 crystals drop from destroying cysts in the late stages of the game like idk if it was just luck but I did 2 aether nests on my way to final exfil and both dropped pack 2 crystals
Whit the second crystal you can do Easy tier 3 contract, like cargo or Outlast and you get the Money way more faster(one tier 3 contract 4000/5000 i don't Remember)
Donut i respect you positivity mate! Its like always looking ok the bright side makes everything better. I get its possable and ive done it but im trying to solo the elder and solor all bosses challenge and just 1 fail at elder would be insane to get back all the stuff to try again. I died as the last reward rift spawned and it took 9 perks, shatter blast, 2 pap 3, 1 leg tool, all clasifieds, 2 jugs, 4 self revs, 6 kazimires, a sentry and a acorcher and vr11. Tell me how how much grinding it would take or waiting to try again? I want to just keep trying for fun so ts here i come. Although i would like to naked the red worm and naked the elder all solo so im up for the challenge and dont need ts but i like playing differently when i can. Thanks mate for making these vids and we might need to call you numbnuts for a lil while for that miss click lmao
I was all in on zombies until I disconnected from the game server for whatever reason halfway through the game, lost my entire operator load out and everything in my bags. I dropped it that moment
Everyone says the fastest contracts are delivery and avts but for me its always bounty contracts. Especially if your weapon has been P.O.P. and a tool. Idk for sure. Just my opinion.
It’s so easy for pack a punch t3 you do how ever need one to get it to start off with. You can get it easily Because everyone has so many now they are just throwing them out. Best bet is go to level 3 find group who’s already in there and go to them they will drop one and then you’re sweet. Do the mission where you have to shoot the theee relics symbol things and line all the purple lines up to make the complete triangle. With in 10min you will have another t3 crystal and legendary tool. Simple do this a few times fill your backpack up with all these then you leave and then every time you jump in you will be able to have a max level gun and go straight to level 3 and do the same farming the crystals. Takes minutes. Took a guy in today who’s first time in level 3 and even took him into the dark aether unfortunately I took in another 4 people and they didn’t understand standing in one area spawns a bunch of zombies and it gets worse so they made it a pretty miserable time. Then we couldn’t go to the last boss because no one would follow me because they didn’t know the direction but kept standing still making the zombies spawn like crazy so I left them 😂
I found a way to farm tools and crystals (mostly epic tools and tier 1 crystals) By doing infested strong holds I got 5 epic tools and by chance I got a tier 3 crystal in 1 GAME!!!
to be fair, you shouldve bee using the same weapon for all the tests, the ase dmg output for each weapon is different and that will effect ttk with and without tools and PaP
You also be better off getting perk colas also. Even with pack 3 without stamina up or speed cola your bound to get downed by their three zombies while reloading
I go into t3 all the time with pack 1 legends and it's fine. Just don't take crap weapons in. Legend pack 2 can run dark aether 1 fairly well. Elder aether needs pack 3s and perks. 😁🤘 I solo play a lot. Use dog bones in case.
i feel like exfiling with schematics you already have should shave off some cooldown time
Dat part!!!
Like an entire day for some of them lol.
2 days for a gold plate/dog/aether blade is nuts... if we can get a cool down on insured slots, why not schematic crafting?
Absolutely! Give ppl a reason to grind! Make it reduce the cooldown by 1% or say 5 Minutes permanently every time you extract the schematics and set min. cooldown to like 1-2 hours. Ppl would go ham on it!
Exactly
I love waiting 48-72 hours for a games that lasts an hour, Idk why they just don’t let us reduce the the time by playing
i cant believe that wont be the case in some time, unfortunately probably some time before the game dies
I mean, as seen in the video, you still have some time to grind tier 3... You don't need to wait the whole 3 days...
But I understand the frustration and agree there should be a way to cool down the timers faster

How to get players to play more…
Ask them wait 48-72 hours to create good items again.
The legendary Aether Tool is probably the only fair cooldown time at 24hours.
Stash size and cool down times are my only real gripe with mechanics rn. Basically I only hit tier 3 once every 2 days because by the time I get my perks and pap 3 I only have like 13 minutes left in the game!😂
This is why mostly everyone was using the tombstone glitch! Game is broken. I'm done with this lame game!
Get a tombstone
Just get better with practice. I can start with nothing and be in tier 3 with 25 mins to go.

There should be no cooldown. It would eliminate the need for stash glitch and dupe glitch. The game would be more fun.

Got to say probably favorite mwz guy simply cause of your attitude. I'm telling you when got 6 in dark aether and crashed, I'm probably done for at least a week, or until I can turn in the game and not be pissed. I haven't had a single crash the entire life cycle until today broke out classified and pack 2 crystal to crash. I don't get to mad just get rest of clarified, flawless and scorcher schematic to recover to get to 3rd contact in t3 fighting my 3rd solo mega, guy wants to party up to getting t3 and bang corrupted file.

You need at least epic rarity and pack two with deadshot, stamin-up, and speed cola to defend yourself.
Or blue rarity with triple pap with the same three perks.
Question: Why is the server keep going down every day? I lost all my stuff every time for the last week. At least 7 times. This is getting really frustrating. I'm about done with this DAMN game.
The same
Let‘s be real here. The only fun way to play this game is to go to Tier 3 straight away, grind it and then go Tier 4-5 every single round
That way you‘ll get best stuff for the next round nearly infinitely, unless you‘ll be extremely unlucky every time, which is highly unlikely
This way you’re guaranteed at the very least PaP 2 and Epic Tool for every game you play.
And I‘m talking solo! If you team up with other people, you’ll be pretty much golden for every game you play with Classified Items and Weapon Cases
The most frustrating barrier in MWZ is how rare the epic and legendary ether tools are. You can farm your punch 3s but zone 3 is still rough unless you get good RNG on ether tools. I had a game today where I went immediately into zone 2 with a blue tool and punch 1 crystal, farmed all match and just never got an epic tool. Complete waste of 45 minutes as I’m back to doing the same the next game and praying for a tool to drop that will let me go into zone 3 in the 3rd game.
Totally agree on the bag size. If they were not giving us anything new for this season, at a minimum they could have increased the bag size.
This example is fine but most people (new people) may not have a 3 plate or large rucksack which they may need to use their money to purchase those items. Plus you make this look real easy
Yup, not to mention the perks needed.
I think that's a fair statement. However, I would argue, if you don't have those items already, you aren't ready for a Tier 3 run.
Plus, you saw how many perks I was getting during the contacts. There's many ways to get geared up in game.
It's not like zombies where you go from nothing to everything in one game and stay there forever. It's a lot longer gameplay progression.
But good point!
What they should do is reduce the cooldown with successful exfils like they do with the insured slot weapons. But yes they should absolutely have a bigger stash. I mean to do the easter eggs you need a total of 8 items, so If you aren't doing it in one go and have to grind out getting the easter egg items you're only left with 2 slots.
They need to fix stash size soon, I already had golden plates on and a set in backpack and it’ll let you waste and apply a pair even if you already have them on and it was my last ones, so here I wait 48 hours for another golden plate
💯 you shouldn't be able to apply things twice... very stupid. Especially if it was on accident
Just go to the dark eather i always go when i dont have any and exfill with 3 or 4 sometimes. Dog bines and eather blades
I remember watching you back in the Ghost days when you had “mmmmm” in the name. Recently found you again and been enjoying the MWZ content!
:D Those days... oh boy. I'm sorry you had to suffer through that! But I'm glad you're here now! I actually might recognize your name XD
I agree with a lot of people who say exfilling with schematics you have should reduce cool down time. I don't even craft pap 3 anymore because I have so much in my stash. Doughnuts btw it's " WATTSON MAIN". Hope all y'all have a good day
They need to make it like DMZ. Exfill with certain items get time off possibly working your way to a few hrs. But your dedicating a couple rounds to finding items for a significant amount time.
Being able to craft stuff like dmz would be useful to make tools.and crystals.
As my camo grind goes on, my main issue is that I always run out of aether tools if I play like 6 games in a row. Every game I just grind 1 gun and as long as I finished my camo goal I'll extract. Each game lasts only 20-30mins while maybe I just did 1 outlasy contract for the whole game. Outlast is the most efficient for most camo challenges for it provides consistent zombie spawn and boss spawn (tier 2).
I wish they would just listen to there fan base lower the cooldown period. 3 hours max is acceptable on all schematics.
I work a busy job and can only get 1 high level game in every 3 days as I have to wait for cooldowns.
I feel I've be cheated out of £70
I get the point but 3 hrs for a triple packed athirium crystal and a legendary aether tool plus the other schematics feels way too op it should be like 5 hrs minimum
Ironic how the most common aether tool is the “rare” rarity lol, love your videos Doughnut! They’ve helped guide me on MWZ, when I first got into it I backed out immediately bc it seemed too complicated but your videos helped me get a hang of it! Now I throughly enjoy playing it :)
Thanks for all your videos, anytime I want to learn any new info in MW3Zombies, I check out your videos and clips. Keep it up bro. Always helpful. I only added my 2cents on this clip bc I also wanted to try and figure out the best way to get started each match if you didn't have access to rare schematics. I noticed how u put in all the time testing and I really respected that bc I do the same thing
Why even have cool downs at all? I don't see the positive impact. Stash should be 3 large rucksacks at leastand there should be a bank on the map to deposit unused essence.
My easiest way to essence. My weapon of choice, wsp swarm fully kitted out. Take in a tier 2 crystal. Stay in tier 1 and do multiple bounty contracts. I killed 2 manglers and 2 mimics yesterday in less than 20 minutes. The swarm packed twice annihilates the bounties. I had 21000 in less than 30 minutes. Ran in to tier 3, packed it, and killed the megabomb before the storm even moved and finished the act 3 mission for it. I love the swarm. It tears thru everything.
If you see cargo delivery in t3 bring decoy grenades drive as close as you can throw the first 1 if you need to get into the building and the 2nd right before you open the door to get the car. I get a way with using a 1 plate vest its easy money. Avoid throwing 1 of your decoys if you want to use it to pick up the rewards but its not necessary just quicky grab everything drive away and drop what you dont want later.
Realistically, it's feasible to run Zone 2 on a Blue Pap 1 gun.... Just suggest not picking up HVT's in case it's a disciple. That definitely requires at least a Blue Pap 2 with DeadShot and Shock Mod... But that's for more experienced players and this video seems to be geared more towards all players.
It's a great informational video.
Had to subscribe after a week of binging your videos. Great content super personable straight to the point. Thank you man. I just started playing zombies and had no clue what I was doing until I stumbled upon your videos. Thanks brother!
Best perk for this is Death Perception. See thru walls and grab every cash register, Merc stash, and Aether chest. Easily grab an extra 2-3k cash in that first 16 minutes that it took to get to T3 in the first game.
I still haven't done the worm... sadly I don't think I'm good enough to solo it and I haven't been able to get a group together to attempt it in game :( Also no luck for the purple tool schematic. Fully agree on the increased stash space! Thank you for the video :)
Edit: PC
Same
Ps?
I usually put in the game chat if anyone’s attempting or needs to do a red worm run. I do this with 2 other friends, so that’s 3 willing to help already right off the bat. We usually average anywhere between 5 - 8 players total fighting it.
At the end of the fight, I give away my schematics because I have them all already, so some people might get lucky exfiling with 2 or all schematics.
@@csquarednc yeah I can't tell you how many times I've asked and have even gotten the usbs and everybody that says they're joining leave :(
Im havin the same problem, i jus need the scorcher plans from the worm so i can get involved! Im off 2moro so will b on if any1 is up 4 it?
Also, with 200 rounds and 400 round mags, and picking up dropped ammo, you can mow thru zombies in an exfil with the swarm. It's very fast! My total count yesterday for 1 match was 648. Zombies is fun and not too hard if you plan your game. But I won't touch tier 3 unless I have a full packed gun, lots of revives and armor. Or the golden armor and my hellhound. Abominations are easy if you have a tier 3 dog.
You’re suppose to go into tier 3 with no weapons. I usually go in with just my aether blade. If I do carry a weapon, it’s either scorcher or vr11. Depends if I want to scout the ground or air. But if none of those, I don’t carry a weapon into tier 3. Only way to outrun everything except dogs which is why the blade is equipped.
Lol I mean... The point of this video is to show that you don't need to rely on all the most powerful things to go into tier 3. Wonder weapons and whatnot lol.
So that's cool but, not the point
First time I've watch one of your videos but I felt that "don't show up for the aether worm" in my soul. Thanks for the content
Just to note that Ram9 is a beast of beasts, and WSP 9 is very overlooked it has really good headshot damage but typical body damage and a slower fire rate, it is better than most when you hit headshots but you have to hit them there is no spray and pray out of trouble like the top weapons.
Fun fact but for me, when I finish a zombies match it says next to my xp the “insured weapon and schematic time reduced” so if you do the unstable rift it would say 72 hours reduced
Spore contracts are the easiest one, only if you can handle around of 40-50 zombies following you, so doing those in red zone can make you get 10k+ in a few minutes
12:04 if you climb up onto the roof above the weapon stash safe, they will single file up the ladder to you. Makes that one waaaaaaaay easier.
For RedWorm, you can pre-prep using a “durable gas mask” x2 purchasable in the tier3(red-zone), along with “sentry-turrets” x3, plus there’s a gate that shows up once the RedWorm is eliminated that can be opened using the triangular-sigil-stone as a key, which exfils you from the game successfully. But here’s a thought…can you keep playing forever in the aether-storm using the “golden-gas-mask”/“Golden-Armor”/“DogBone-hellhound”/“aether-blade”…if so, how long until the server just crashes or kicks you out for a new list of players on the server. Lololz😂
Funny, I covered that in a video!
ua-cam.com/video/jFPiCS4uAQk/v-deo.htmlsi=EqTn51961hcaApFA
Insured Weapon Slot timer reduction should apply to all craftables. Max craft on anything should be 24 hours and scale down from there.
Stash size increases should be unlockable like attachments via contract completion milestones. Like, complete 100 contracts for +1 stash up to 100 total. Then when they introduce new items to the game increase the max stash size by 10 per item to allow more account progression.
Make a contract algorithm that dictates no more than 10% of contracts can be "protect the data" contracts. Funneling merc content that is 2-3x the duration of other content timewise in a fixed duration game mode is not good. I frequently just pick them up and insta abandon if Im running by one.
There’s an EE type thing in tier 3. If you go to the gravestone (I don’t remember exactly where it’s at) you can give it your pap gun and it will return it as a normal gun and give you the crystal for whatever level it was at
Yeah but it’s not a crystal every time though.
@@Dinho1020 oh, I thought it did. Good to know it doesn’t
@@gauntend386 yeah I’ve done it a good chunk of times. I’ve gotten tools, crystals, kill streaks. Maybe you’re just lucky🤷🏼♂️
Thats a cool strategy but what I usually do is carry a epic tool and pack 2 crystal to start the game with four perks and any extra gear necessary to survive or make the match easier, after getting tier pack 3 I run with a four to six squad and go to the regular or elder dark aether to get fantastic loot
DEADSHOT is the #1 makes a HUGE difference! Great video make more.
You should use tac stance aim on the Ram 9, gives you an extra slot for an attachment to improve the tac stance spread and recoil etc and the visibility is miles better!
The issue is not necessarily the cooldowns. It's simply the time limit and lack of an infinite round based mode. That's it.
No new content with zombies. But you keep grinding out content. I love it
Thanks! For this detailed comparison. I’ve had to grind to get to tier 3 many times and the only thing that stinks is the ones who glitch are in their from the getting go claiming all the contracts 😔
That's less than 1% of what TS users do. The rest give all their gear and money to people like you who haven't completed them game yet.
Great vid. I feel like using meta builds with Rare tools and PaP2 is doable in T3. Great strat with farming those contracts. Don’t sleep on lockers, epic comics are worth $780
I have only just started to watch you but thanks to you I went in to the elder dark ather and got all the schematic
My favorite thing about MWZ, besides the lag spikes, is that amazing stash size! Im sure you can throw all three of those epic tools right into yours cause it's so spacious along with all that other loot! Also, why switch the weapon? I thought it was to test the quickness to get to a certain point in the game. Your control was using the same weapon and build to figure this out. Switching the weapon changes the entire video...
Guys you only need a purple tool and level 2 pack o punch both of those things can be made pretty fast what I did was save my schematics for a few days and went in with nothing. And I’m also not doing more than 2 or 3 games when I play.
If they don’t want to reduce the cd times then keep the cd times but let us keep the rarity and pap level when we extract and come back in
3:43 when I have got pap lvl 2 i run in tier 3 and du 2 or 3 contracts and then pap to lvl 3
I just relised this video is of 7 months ago😅
Once you complete a contract in Tier 1 or 2, all contracts will give the same payout (if you complete 1 tier 3, all of the tier 1 contracts will pay the same as tier 3
You can do pack a punch two with an ether blade and a weapon ether blade will get rid of any zombies to close for comfort 😊
I am not a good player so I don't roam around in tier 3. But if I am in a hurry to pap a weapon I don't like. I will do tier 3 deliver cargo because I go right to tier 2 deliver cargo in the southwest area of tier 2 there's 2 of them if you want to stay on this section or switch east to west is the deciding factor on which I do first. Those 3 contracts have a chance to pap 1,2 or all 3 tiers and improving rarity. In 10 minutes.
This is going to take more research, I've been trying to figure this out myself. The main reason people do Tombstone is because of this. Playing the whole to only have 17 minutes after Pack Three is ridiculous.
You have to loot and pick sellable items in between contracts it makes everything extremely quick
Dude, your content is like a mix of ASMR and MWZ I loevd it!
It’s good to find someone who talks like an adult and not fast with the “all my viewers are 12 year olds” energy
Bro I get so much money from random loot! I found a piece for 3k the other day and an origami horse worth 1k! I always start my game by looting EVERYTHING in my path. You get 5k fast af.
They need to let successful exfils reduce time, and the longer you were in game rewards you with more cool down time coming off so people couldn't just spam exfils
8:38 that horde 😭😭
My issue with MWZ T3, is not doing T1/2 contacts to get there... it is that T3 barely has contracts by the time I get there. I've gotten there when there are 0 contacts.
I think they need to increase the respawn of those contacts.
That essence glitch is weird. One second, I had enough essence for an item in the buy box, then I didn't have enough when I went to buy it. A couple zombie kills later, and it said I had enough again.
If you bring up your ruck’s inventory, the true amount you have is shown there.
@@csquarednc The weird part was the item showing red in the buy station, with my total when I tried being over 20k, then went to 8k and wouldn't let me buy a sentry.
You can get a couple of grand from taking an aether rift and flying through the essence in the air. Worth taking on when you see it!
The time you get taken off insured weapons for playing should be applied to crafting items as well
I’m new to MW3 so excuse me if this has already been brought up but I feel like if they increased the gameplay time to 1 hour it would make all the difference.
Season player tip sounds weird and strange but don't use your Epic tool into your one when you fight and do the contracts because then the game May read it as you don't have much on your gun and it may give you that Crystal that you wanted earlier
I try to have at least a rare PAP 2/epic PAP 1 weapon before heading into T3. The only problem, i've been having lately, is that there's already scores of people in T3 taking all the contracts, so I'm usually farming HVTs in T2 until I see a contract in T3 that I can grab.
Same. If you don't bring in everything you need to just go straight into t3 you can't. By the time you earn it all in match, so has everyone else and now there's 5 contracts and 5 or 6 teams constantly fighting over them.
I gotta get back to completing my spreadsheet, but its easy to exfil with at least an Epic Aether Tool and a Raw Aether Crystal, maybe even Refined.
Reward Rifts drop Perk Colas almost always as there drop rate is high. This starts a loop. If you keep his up you wouldnt have to worry bout the cool down times.. In all honesty, i dont think much of the Cod community was ready or is ready for a full on looter shooter.
For the red worm, normally it would be unsuccessful unless there was 5 or more of us and all fully-kitted. Today, someone wanted to do the red worm and there was just 3 of us. The worm was bugged because it only took 30 seconds. I was so anxious about us surviving, but it was too easy.
Bring in a ton of sentries, we do the worm constantly with only 3 of us. Took like 20 times to get the scorcher.
Sad to say they missed the mark with the cool downs and silliness like storms so QUICKLY. IT should be optional but ahh . Thanks for content bro
I agree doughnuts that pack a punch threw is great and important but from my experience the legendary tool is more Important. I say legendary cuz it's obviously the highest rarity and since we are talking about the high pack a punch which is 3 I figured the best way to compare. The way I did it was I took a pack of punch 3 only weapon in tier 3 and tried doin contracts and just survive. Then I took the same gun and exact setup to tier 3 again but this time with no pack a punch and only a legendary tool on it. I felt I could hold my own way better with the legendary tool then I was able to with the pack a punch 3. Now obviously the goal is no brainer, pack a punch 3 and legendary tool both, plus it's way faster to get I think like 2000 or 5000 essence and go buy a wall but gun in tier 3 zone that has the legendary rarity already equipped
Really not sure how you can say that "It really shouldn't skew our results.." after upgrading your weapon from a Blue rarity to an Epic Rarity. Blue Rarity is 100% bonus weapon dmg, equal to PaP 1, while Epic Rarity is 200% bonus weapon dmg. Id say numbers wise, and TTK, a 100% is a major difference in damage.
Very true, but there's nothing I did in the video with the epic tool that I couldn't have done with the rare tool.
This wasn't a measurement of how effective weapons are, it was how fast you can get to tier 3 PaP. Rarity doesn't have that much of an effect on that
Realistically if they removed the cooldown and put up the stash by loads it will be an incentive for people to play more. Idk why they dont just do it.
The only problem I have is stash size and the rarity on aether tools. My stash is LOADED with T3 crystals, aether blades, golden plates etc. But then I play a game and can stash little to nothing because my stash is already full 🙃🙃 just looking for T3 crystals at this point. Still need the classified schematics gonna give it a run tonight
I guess someone forgot to take the deposit to the bank. I went to a cash register last night in tier 2 and it had a 100 essence and a 500! Blew my mind and gave me enough for the buy crate!
You know, I actually find epic tools more than rare ones. They just aren't super common, but it's still a good baseline
I don’t really understand the flawless crystal cooldown.. the legendary aether tool is far more valuable imo as you can quite quickly get to pap 3 in game.
Uncommon - 2 Hours
Rare - 5 Hours
Epic - 10 Hours
Legendary - 24 Hours
Fair enough so far.
Raw Aetherium Crystal - 8 Hours
Refined Aetherium Crystal - 16 Hours
Flawless Aetherium Crystal - 24 or 32 Hours right?? No, 72 Hours.
What.. who at made that number up?! Also, there should 100% be a way to upgrade to legendary in game like we could in previous games.
Good idea. For me, since I play every couple days I can craft it and have it ready for when I run some contracts. I also don't have the scorcher scheme either 😢
I was using the stock stinger (i think thas the wsp pistol), which i believe has no upper or headshot multiplier, at the time of S1R, it did like 24 damage, and i believe it took me like 8 shots to he body and arms to beat a Z1 🧟♂️.. that should put it at around 200 health. Going into Z2, i got a estimate that the health was around 8-9 times higher than Z1 (lines up with another person test). I cant recall the gauge they got for Z3, but im gonna trust hat estimate. With that being said, you could figure which weapons deplete that much health as quick as possible, and it would show you which weapons are defint viale for Z3 entry with as little as tools and crystals as possible.
Great video, my guy! My stash is stacked, but this is a great video for someone new to the game.
I've been seeing more pack 1 & pack 2 crystals drop from destroying cysts in the late stages of the game like idk if it was just luck but I did 2 aether nests on my way to final exfil and both dropped pack 2 crystals
Whit the second crystal you can do Easy tier 3 contract, like cargo or Outlast and you get the Money way more faster(one tier 3 contract 4000/5000 i don't Remember)
Donut i respect you positivity mate! Its like always looking ok the bright side makes everything better. I get its possable and ive done it but im trying to solo the elder and solor all bosses challenge and just 1 fail at elder would be insane to get back all the stuff to try again. I died as the last reward rift spawned and it took 9 perks, shatter blast, 2 pap 3, 1 leg tool, all clasifieds, 2 jugs, 4 self revs, 6 kazimires, a sentry and a acorcher and vr11. Tell me how how much grinding it would take or waiting to try again? I want to just keep trying for fun so ts here i come. Although i would like to naked the red worm and naked the elder all solo so im up for the challenge and dont need ts but i like playing differently when i can. Thanks mate for making these vids and we might need to call you numbnuts for a lil while for that miss click lmao
I was all in on zombies until I disconnected from the game server for whatever reason halfway through the game, lost my entire operator load out and everything in my bags. I dropped it that moment
Just bring in the VR-11 for the Red Worm, absolutely destroys it.
Ram 9 melts zombies. Last run I did with it Ave you can build it with extra movement speed too.
Everyone says the fastest contracts are delivery and avts but for me its always bounty contracts. Especially if your weapon has been P.O.P. and a tool. Idk for sure. Just my opinion.
It’s so easy for pack a punch t3 you do how ever need one to get it to start off with. You can get it easily
Because everyone has so many now they are just throwing them out. Best bet is go to level 3 find group who’s already in there and go to them they will drop one and then you’re sweet. Do the mission where you have to shoot the theee relics symbol things and line all the purple lines up to make the complete triangle. With in 10min you will have another t3 crystal and legendary tool. Simple do this a few times fill your backpack up with all these then you leave and then every time you jump in you will be able to have a max level gun and go straight to level 3 and do the same farming the crystals. Takes minutes. Took a guy in today who’s first time in level 3 and even took him into the dark aether unfortunately I took in another 4 people and they didn’t understand standing in one area spawns a bunch of zombies and it gets worse so they made it a pretty miserable time. Then we couldn’t go to the last boss because no one would follow me because they didn’t know the direction but kept standing still making the zombies spawn like crazy so I left them 😂
How do you run into people doing red worm so much? I haven’t seen anyone do it in weeks. I’m begging someone to do it
I found a way to farm tools and crystals (mostly epic tools and tier 1 crystals) By doing infested strong holds I got 5 epic tools and by chance I got a tier 3 crystal in 1 GAME!!!
to be fair, you shouldve bee using the same weapon for all the tests, the ase dmg output for each weapon is different and that will effect ttk with and without tools and PaP
You also be better off getting perk colas also. Even with pack 3 without stamina up or speed cola your bound to get downed by their three zombies while reloading
They need to keep the "defend the radio" contract but up their reward by $2,000. So $7k in t3 and $5k in t1
I think the weapon cooldown at exfil, should take some time off schematic cooldown. I have to wait 2 days for aether blade unless I have a case.
I go into t3 all the time with pack 1 legends and it's fine. Just don't take crap weapons in. Legend pack 2 can run dark aether 1 fairly well. Elder aether needs pack 3s and perks. 😁🤘 I solo play a lot. Use dog bones in case.
Yea the stash size and the cooldowns on crafting need adjusting. The stash limit is too small the cool downs are ridiculously long.
I’d rather have a legendary in my bag then a pap 3 lol cause of the insane cooldown for pap 3
i Did a LedEtool Pak1 in t3 last night with no real issue
I have gone into T3 with a epic purple tool and packapunch 2 and i just slay all zombies lol
