The CCT COMMS VEST also gives you a slight advantage when an enemy calls in a C-UAV. The minimap is static but enemy red dots appear when they fire their guns or your team has a UAV. I run this vest a lot

The ordinance gloves also have a hidden feature that makes your tacticals bounce off every atom in the air whilst trying to get SMG camos.

I've noticed nobody's said anything about the overkill vest also being an underkill vest, meaning you can equip two secondaries or two primaries, or one of each (like starting with a secondary in the primary slot)

Its amazing to me how well the audio of the game come's through on my cheap ear buds but when im at home with over ear headphones its like listening to the game in a barrel. You just hear everything at once unlike on aces videos you can clearly and cleanly hear each footstep wild stuff man.

Thank you. I wasn't aware of many of those. I love the work that you do keep it up man

ace these vids are amazing. you've inspired me to actually learn about the game and its made it wayyy more fun

For those interested in equipment and field upgrades, Favstar is simmilar to ace and is focusing in great detail on perks, equipment etc

Thanks Ace. I was wondering about the marksman gloves and if they also help with holding breath. They have the symbol of the focus perk, but doesnt state anything about breath duration. Also, I dont see any other perk that gives this benefit.

This was the video i was waiting for! Nice job!

The hidden comms vest ability reminds me of my favorite wiretap perk from CoD Ghosts thst allowed you to abuse enemy UAVs and prevent the snowballing of killstreaks if your team isn't that good which seems to happen more frequently as bonus armory points get awarded to the winning team only.

As a new player, I appreciate you explaining things that a new player might not understand.

Great video as usual Ace! Been following since MWII!

Thanks for this information Ace! I despise when they add secret things that aren't in the descriptions. Defeats the entire purpose of even having descriptions

Nice one Ace!! Could you do a vid on the high alert perk too? I feel like it's description and what happens in game are very different and is under utilised because people dont know

LOVING having Cold Blooded/IFF Strobe back finally. Sooo much more convenient and hilarious to run around in the open while teammates are getting mowed down by Heli's and VTOLs (tho sometimes if you are too close to somebody, you'll take some hits).

Hey Ace one hidden thing that wasn't mentioned is that ordinance glove is that you "cook" frags and thermal baric grenades WAY faster I blew myself up in war mode due to how fast the cook pulse animation is compared to other gloves

All these hidden things reminds me of iw lol . Very helpful video thanks ace

wow, great thorough video! 🙌👏

I assumed the quick grip gloves were the same as fast hands but its nice to see the side by side i assume it helps with throwing knives

What gun are you using in this video? Great video, as always

Nice vid Ace. Im not sure how to fix it but every lobbie is using Covert Sneakers, its a must.

With overkill vest you can actually equip 2 secondaries. It may be obvious for someone but for people like me who started cod from mw2022 this is surprising, I didn't know until I saw a dude run double snakeshot.

Isn't the difference between the CCT Comms Vest and the Data Jacker that the radar ping from the vest is shared with teammates and the ping from the gear item is only for you?

Ive noticed while collecting my intel packs with the CCT vest I also scavenger ammo too

Had no idea tbh. Great video

dont think people realize how strong CCT comms vest is. don't think i'll ever take it off tbh. i don't throw tacs and lethals anyway. this is a free permanent UAV if you're an aggressive player and the radius of the radar sweep is VERY large.

I was getting mad I could hear my Ash operator anymore! (Covert sneakers) Don't remember if this was mentioned but the covert sneakers also eliminates slide noise and climbing ladder noise

Great video. The engineer vest and it's gear counter part. Both are not working as intended. They both state. They emit a signal. That disrupts enemies lethals (basically like the perk from ww2 when you added the flanker perk. It delayed the activation of claymores/ bouncing proxy mines. You do you run past it and not received damage . It should also provide an audio cue. Both do not work. You still die exactly the same because there is a delay allowing you to run past it. May I add the red of the engineer perk is also not bright enough, does not always highlight enemy equipment and sometimes does not go through walls. In part cod's. The engineer perk used to also highlight uavs in the minimap. To stop you looking around in the air for trying to locate them. Looking for them had got me killed so many times. Please look into this Ace

It appears if you have covert sneakers on your favorite loudout makes the operators don't say lines either when on the operator select screen.

I'd like to know how the ping generated from the CCT Coms vest and Data Jacker interact with the Assassin vest and Ghost camo. Do they not get pinged or does CCT Vest/DataJacker counter it somewhat?

Thanks Ace. On a different subject, is anyone having issues with a season one bug with Progression? Seems when you check on it, it reverts back to home screen or match start screen. This bug also eliminates any stats or letting you know if your XP or unlocked attachments at the end of a match. Thoughts?

I miss how the Ordnance gloves used to improve the cook time on grenades. It was a good hidden characteristic on them since cooking grenades you intend to throw back faster is handy

Ace uploaded everyone! Let’s gooooooo

Ace you so clutch my guy

Can you make a video about which vest & perk combo use the best?

Always putting out quality content. Thanks Ace!

When aiming down the sight and strafing, the Marksman Gloves seem to smooth out your aim from what I've experienced.

The quick grip/ordinance gloves would either or these then help when running throwing knives in terms of throwing out of your hand quicker and further as well?

Good video Ace

I use sneakers and bone conductor and like the limited operator callouts. I'd also like it to mute teammate noise when they spawn behind you, like they're dropping down from the 2nd floor...scares the crap outta me sometimes. I use the marksman gloves for the supposed ADS benefit....but does it really do anything? Thanks for the video

The Mission Control Comlink gear has an additional effect. The description says something like: reduces killstreak requirements by 1 and scorestreak requirements by 125. However, it also improves Field Upgrade recharge time depending on score and/or kills obtained by the user. This is a really big deal because of the Med Box, here in early Season 2, being so powerful. I was able to constantly get the Med Box with that gear.

Bone conduction headset should be able to hear covert sneakers. Not super loud, but it should give you some sort of audio que

I love to see a the finals review video❤

i wonder if bone conduction perk will make enemey footstep loud again if they have covert sneakers

I also noticed that the DDOS temporarily disables the the turret on the tank in war mode

are you gonna make a video on the mcw 6.8 full auto conversion. i wanna know if its a waste of time or not to max out that gun or if the ttk is doo doo compared to other full auto rifles.

One other thing about the Overkill Vest: It doesn't say it, but it also gives you the effects of Commando Gloves, so you can reload while running.

On my sniper classes I always use overkill vest w quick grip gloves to get marksman glove effect and still use a knife secondary yet it never feels like it works as there's still hell flinch

Really wish they would have a pros and cons list for perks and vests, with ALL characteristics listed so that we actually know what we are using

Not sure if it's still a thing but pre season one launch when I used the ordinance gloves the frag grenade cook time was cut in half. I blew myself up twice

Ace, you mentioned that the overkill vest doesnt stack with the quick grip gloves, but what happens when you use the overkill vest and the ordinance gloves? Anything? Thank you.

I know they said things arent supposednto stack, but me and my friend shot 12 shots from the grenade launcher at a dude and he walked away from it. The blasts were so e direct, and the rest right next to them. Its unbelievable

I actually had my own idea for vests because I honestly like the system. Combat Specialist Vest - Lose the ability to call in streaks (except nuke) - Gain the Effects of Marksman Gloves - Gain the Effects of Stalker Boots - Automatically heal when on objective or killing enemy. - Lose Field upgrade - 1 Extra Gear slot Streak Specialist Vest - Lose Gear perks - Lose Tactical Equipment - Gain effects of Mission Control Comlink - Kills from a killstreak count towards your next kill in the same life (including Nuke). - Wrap Killstreaks - Gain additional score when using support score streak.

Ace! Did you test dead silence with the gloves, Thanks!

Any hidden Attachment bonuses such as the old P90 giving extra Sprint time with Extended Mags?😮

i've heard that the marksman gloves give you a 2-hit melee but havent tried this out personally

I wonder if the overkill vest combined with the ordinance gloves will stack and let you use equipment even faster?

I really like that my operator shuts the f up when using covert sneakers, I don’t need to hear any of that crap.

Lol at the beginning when I had not unlocked sneakers operators started to annoy me when i used tacticals and frags with the "nade out" voice line nonstop😂.

i dont even play cod anymore. i just watch Ace's vids to support him in this dark time for cod.

It's weird that they still haven't added elevation markers to the directional arrows from advanced UAV

I have a question if I buy the vault edition now do I have to use it on this season 🤔 also are the tokens carry over from season to season

I don't know if you have the footage but in the season 1 update they changed how the smoke deploy field upgrade pings. I used to use it to ping people in SnD but now it is unreliable

BT said it best, Ace is one of the backbones of the COD Community.

What if you use the ghost camo and the assassin’s vest combined against the Advanced UAV?

Do covert sneakers effect the announcer aswell as even though I’ve changed every setting in the in game mixer i can barely hear them callout a enemy UAV…

You should have tested ghost and the new assassin vest with portable radars. Sometimes I throw one down and I get no dots on my mini map then I go around a corner and someone without ghost kills me. Makes me wonder if the portable radar is even working as it should.

I was unaware of all!

do any of these vests or gloves also give players extra health? theres times where ill be shooting someone and ill be hiting metal plates as if im in warzone, its usually when they just recently spawned in

Amazing video as always! But why are killstreaks being nerfed so much? Even Stavanger UAVs aren’t that good anymore

Is there any stack effect when using both the assassin vest and ghost t/v camo?

Does anybody know if the quick grip gloves let ya use stim quicker?

Feels like the Ordnance Gloves got the equipment usage buff nerfed with season 1. Still not over losing the shorter frag fuse on them.

Can the gloves also help the stim use faster?

Foes the Com disruption field upgrade stop u from coming up on advanced uav when in its radius?

Do u gain the heartbeat sensor while wearing the ghost camo and the assassin vest?

is there a counter to thermal scopes?

Any chance you could check out the HIS or cold blooded perk for us? I'm pretty sure I'm still "glowing" in thermal scopes even when using it!

Do the hidden effects of the overkill vest and the ordinance gloves stack though?

I'm sure many of you might have already noticed, but; if you wanna get a good laugh, equip the "INTLAS CAS-14" optic on a rifle or something, which improves your tactical stance spread, then when deployed switch to tac stance with it. Might notice a slight oversight

GREAT VIDEO. I WAS UNAWARE OF A COUPLE

What's the best vest to use?

Thanks

i literally figured this out yesterday lol i decided to use scavenger gloves

Do any of these vests actually stop bullets?

Any chance we'll get a video of Stormender vs all Killstreaks? Also an in-depth on field upgrades such as comm scrambler? (like how AUAV works against people inside it's radius.)

Does the bone connection headset benefit def settings

What if you use the assassin vest with the new muzzle? The jak bfb?

I appreciate your breakdown, have you seen the perk selection when you play warzone? I know you don't cover that mode, but choosing perks just there seems so simplified and not at all confusing compared to MP.

What gun build were you using in this video?

Hmm, didn’t know about the ordnance gloves boosting equipment throw time. I will use this on my riot shield class that has 2 C4s instead of quick grip gloves.

So when you first load into a match, there’s a description on the bottom of the UI for whatever vest you use. Some of these are different from the ones on the menu

The assassin vest keeps you off of the radar even when not moving. Any other benefits??

Ace, I think the Lightweight boots give you the strafing benefits of the Stalker boots. In addition to the other movement benefits. I don't think there is a reason to use Stalker.

I havent tested whether its the bone conduction in combination with the covert sneakers but executions are completely muted at least on the excecutor's side of the animation, definitely good in my eyes but its definitely a mechanic since launch so far. No one talks about it tho so is it just me?

I don't know if this issue is already known but can you report to SHG that if you loose a game that you join in progress, it counts towards your stats even though it says at the end of the game that the loss will be prevented. This shouldn't happen...

does bone conduction headset counter covert sneakers though? I think that would be an important thing to check. I had the feeling it does but i never tested it.

I noticed a weird radioactive device noise as I got closer to someone in a shack while playing on wasteland. The noise increased in frequency speed the closer I got to them. It was the first time I noticed it and haven’t played since. Is it just chance or is this part of a perk

How come I don't see my progress at the end of each game? I go straight to the lobby. In previous COD, I would see if I made a challenge or advanced a tier. Could it be because of my bandwidth or my hardware?

Speaking of perks.. I would like to get your opinion on the "flex" perk in warzone.. it is in the 4th slot. I keep hearing people online saying that it works like the bone conduction headset, but in warzone. They are saying that you can actually hear enemy footsteps better using it, but it isn't stated to do that. Is this true? I'm asking you simply because you are a voice that I actually trust when it comes to this kind of thing. You're a true stats rockstar. Keep up the good work, and thanks for all that you do.
