They should make it to where if you extract a duplicate schematic it resets your cooldowns.

I never adventured before in t3 and every time I did it didn’t end well. The tuning point for me was a random guy that dropped me a Dog Bone schematic while I was chilling in t1 solo (he probably was doing the tombstone glitch) . The dog gave me so much trust that I began to adventure in t3 and teaming up with random squads. Now I basically have all the schematics (except for a couple from the red warm) and run around with all the best gear and always try to help less skilled players with schematics and loot

*_Maybe the real best loot you can get in MW3 Zombies are all the friends we made along the way._*

I started a tier 3 deliver cargo last night, another player was so salty I got it before him he ignored my squad invite and chose to follow me to the mission and destroy the truck, then follows me to the next vehicle and did the same. Only way to get him to stop following was I found a redeploy. The next game I got in with a great squad and we finished season 1 elder sigil and got a ton of schematics, worst to best experience all in one night.

I don’t think they have nerfed the game. I think we have became more skilled at the game, we know better strategies and also we have access to better equipment (guns, legendary tools, pack 3 crystals, kazmirs, etc). I remember back in the beginning I was a noob and it took me 3 weeks to get mi first purple tool, I felt invincible in tier 2. Also the old dark aether was buffed after the initial launch. It spawns more zombies than the original version.

Did the red worm today and right when I got in game I announced it to chat and ended up only getting one guy who’d never done it before took us 3-4 minutes maybe! With a pack 3 vr11 and he got two free schematics basically so people if someone offers just do it you won’t regret it more than like if someone’s offering they probably can do it themselves and you’ll just get the rewards!

I’m burnt out on zombies so I just wait a few days between each game and go in with everything lol

Epic Aether tools are so common now that I don't even bother storing them - if I want one I will get one after 1 or 2 T3 contracts easily. Much rather leave space for selfs, kazimirs or even killstreaks tbh

I think both things can be true at the same time. Cooldowns are pretty ass considering you can leave with 100,000+ essence with nothing to show for, other than player xp that is effectively useless after base 55. But people also need to stop hoarding items and have "gear fear" because if they use those items, they can usually resupply those top tier items from Tier 3 farming and topping it off with a Dark Aether run for Mags of Holding or Golden Plates. But on top that, it's also ass that you're effectively playing the game just to resupply items that you used for the current match. There needs to always be something more to build towards. They failed that in their Tarkov-lite DMZ mode, they're failing here too. Activision loves their player retention, why not reward their most dedicated players.

the 3 day cd on tier 3 pack a punch is dumb its like they dont want us to play the game

Would be nice to see weekly events with rewards or even being able to exchange points to lower the cooldowns. Also would love to see the map updated with different weather or something to make it feel a little different

Me getting a lobby to do the red worm is like getting doughnuts out of Tac stance......

i love it when i start a game with nothing to do and finish to do redworm or aether with others peoples, its a great thing

Completed 3 contracts in the new dark ether only to get one acquisition of blood burner key. No mags of holding

For some reason when I take the mags of holding out the dark aether In the acquisitions form they take it from me . I literally don’t have it when I come out . Idk why

12:14 ... even if you have all the schematics , you should of looked and drop for others who are in need :)

It took me until today with my buddies to unlock the scorcher schematic. I'm really getting tired of the limit to the stash. Like, why keep going in if I can't bring out and save the best stuff for when we want to go in and play more relaxed? Oh, and a wallet...

Top content as always ❤️🤘🏼

Me: "Haha, he didn't look into the worm rift!" Also me: "Wait... that happened to me not long ago..."

I never get lobbies that go into the high threat zone. I also rarely go into it myself. So I think it's based more on your player style than game play issue

I know many people already may know this but for those who don’t, you honestly don’t need a legendary aether tool everytime you go into tier 3 or even the dark aether. Yes it will be very beneficial to be max packed and max upgraded, but the epic aether tool with pack 3 is really all you need and many guns (FSS Hurricane, yall give that a try because that gun is one of the perfect examples of how good some guns are at that level) will be able to carry you in those zones! I actually like the amount of epic tools I get in the game, it helps me save up for the next tier 3 or dark aether run. Also another point I’d like to add, I understand that the lack of contracts is annoying, and tbh for me atleast, I’d rather just squad up with other random players so that we don’t end up fighting over contracts. How I think of it, you get the essence regardless

You really are lucky as hell. I’m on roughly 200 T3/ DA contracts since the last time I pulled a legendary tool. 2 in one game is what dreams are made of

enjoyable vid as always. Would have been good to see that holger at pap 3 take on regular t3 zombies, particularly hordes. vid mostly was clips of specials and hvts.

If your wondering how donut is packing punch his gun without getting those awful pack skins it’s actually really simple all you have to do is knife a pack a punch machine it will do an animation and disable the pack skins it even affects the pack crystals but you’ll have to knife a pack machine every game to do this I wish it was a one and done thing

Another great video 😊

OH yea more doughnuts goodness!

Highlights of my day Ur video bro ggz

anyone else’s sigils and plans disappearing after leaving the dark aether?

"You're such a doughnut" had me dying 😂😂😂😂😂

The fighting for t3 contracts is the reason why I love the old dark aether for the possibility of getting scorcher cases

Great vod bud as always ty, One question, i always lose some of the items in my bag after exfilling unlike you in 16:27 , Is there a system or roles i should know about 'Cuz I couldn't exfill with more than two epic tools and u got 4 😅

They should make the red zone bigger and make it so the buy stations sell the same gear no matter what tier your in. My last three games crashed and I lost all my gold parts twice at the exact moment I was opening up the rift. Im losing my patience

Currently I have a problem every time I start a game with the blood burner keys and spawn it , I am no longer able to drive any vehicals without it glitching out and giving me GTA 1 veiw and then blowing the vehical up

13:44 I’ve actually just started attempting tier 2/3 more. I always stayed in grey unless I got in a team n then I’d venture into tier 2

8:50 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 we’re all donuts lol

You fail to look in the mirror mmy friend. You and several others showed some of us low kd players you can do tier 2 and a couple tier 3 contracts in 1 plate small backpack loadouts and potentially exfil fully built with cool stuff to equip the next match while possibly doing dark aether or worm. I can finally try tier 3 contracts and finished all story missions in the last few months . You created your own competition. I am not it. Still haven't killed a warlord yet,haven't gone to the dark aether other than story missions. Hell killed my first mega a month ago only 7 more since then. But I am enjoying the whole experience like you all are though older, slower and not as tidy. I got there watching several of you. I never team up or use a mic. It's easier to mind my language that young people find offensive. I also don't do the teabag dance of friendship. I do drop random stuff to people I revive and leave though. Usually a self revive. I think people believe I am being nice. I am simply saying revive yourself I got lucky to survive once I am not coming back. Have fun the grind rolls on.

I've got more Mags Of Holding from replaying the mission (2 out of 4 runs) than I have using a sigil and going in (I've got zero MOH or Blood Burner in 6 runs, I get a couple VR11s every time though).

I’ve Been running the new SOA Sub battle rifle with mags of holding! 1500-1600 total rounds once packed!!! 😳 last game I didn’t see it go under 1300 even once 🤣

Hey Doughnuts,,, Liking your vids

12:20 I don’t think they wanted to go elder. Cause one exfiled thru the portal n one left the team that u joined at the end when u started towards elder

3:01 I do hear that it has a big damage drop off with distance

Dude the VR11 was the first one I got and the only one for like 3 runs lol, then got the rest a week later when I was able to play again 😂

One mans luck gets another man unluck

Nicely done 🍩

The only schematic i still need in this game is the legendary tool. I've gone through red worm 3 times and RNGesus has yet to bless me lol

i was watching the way you used the gun in tac stance and was saying to my self dude aim normally then you figure it out and i was like see! LOL

As soon as I unlocked this aftermarket part it became one of my main weapons!

How do u pack and not see the game given camo?

Just down in the dark aether at the end with a large bag in you're stone and your usually good to go for every match

I have a problem when I exfil with a schematic it doesn’t unlock. Does anyone know how to fix that?

The backsaw kit is trash in tac stance doughnuts. The bullet spread from the hip or tac stance makes it super inaccurate and inconsistent, always ADS with it

Another top comment by me: cool down of 48-72 hours, it’s just beyond stupidness…I play 2 games every 2 days MAX, one warm up, one full throttle fast pace with e blade, gold plates, dog , tier 3 stone/ key, full game + dark ether in hope getting some plates / blades back for my out spending

Can anyone explain how I have the flawless crystal schematic when I've not beaten Greylorm once? I don't remember and its bugging me

I need help desperately to get the s1 dark ather schematics 😭😭 I can’t even find the elder sigils do I need to use the normal sigil first cause I have five of them but I didn’t want to go in by myself but I’m try one game

Try wsp stingers akimbo with mags of holding. You’ll not be disappointed!

You have to ADS. Tac stance doesn’t really help. It’s actually really good once you land headshots😊

I think since everyone started using the flame thrower they completely nerfed the T3 rewards. Since it’s so OP and you can basically run T3 without any issues the rewards have been trash. I’m literally the guys getting blue tools and medium rucksacks. I have all 3 of my operators above containment lvl 400 and I haven’t got a gold tool of flawless in all those contracts. It sucks

I did the easter egg for the dark eather but i cant find the sigils… did over 10/15 contracts in red

Is Tombstone bugged? Cuz I crashed in the Elder and my grave didn’t spawn the next game :(

‘You’re such a doughnut’ name of my new band!

I play zombies by myself and never got the courage to go into the dark ethers or to fight the worms

They REALLY REALLY Need to decrease cooldown times!!? 3 fucking day cooldown for the Pack 3 crystal is fucking insane!!? The 2 day cool downs on wonder weapons and stuff r crazy too!!? Cooldowns should be like no more than a day!? Either that or they should create a way for us to decrease the cooldown times somehow cuz it's just crazy having to wait 2-3 days to be able to use the best stuff!? Also one thing I'd like is for them to not give green tools in tier 3 contracts!? U shouldn't be getting the weakest loot in the high tiers!?

11 times complete n no mags of holding scheme.

I still need to do the first Aether rift 😅

I hate tier 3 when you got multiple teams with scorchers flying around getting all the contracts

Anyone noticed that the ATV contract goes a lot faster in T3

Fun fact: The Sva assault rifle also shoots 2 at a time

If you get the schematic it should cancel out the timer… and each operator should have their own inventory

i did the red worm and it just instantly died

I go into the aether almost everyday. The pvp mode is basically this, fighting for contracts. 😭

imagine, double tap perk with that amp

Haven’t played zombies for sometime since the game has been crashing and then making me lose everything. Was in T3 and got a random PAP 3 crystal and two legendary tools in an infected stronghold. Went to a T3 buy station and game crashed and I lost it all. Activision needs to get it together 😒

Is jak backsaw kit really that good

1:15 DONUT MOBILE!!!!!!!!! 🍩🍩🍩

What cammo is that?

Anyone know how to make the first aether rift re appear mines invisible

I can only play in tier one when I go into tier 2 or three to try to upgrade my equipment I die

It's weird. I have matches where I am alll alone in T3 most of the match. Then, there's 12 people in another match. I'd say most of the time there's not too many people.

legendary tool reward in t3 is a myth for me... i always get blue tool in t3. and the most insulting thing that i ever recieve in t3 is green tool.... i wish i screenshotted it and post it on twitter bcuz that was so insulting. also, i got VR11 first thing and still havent got the ammo schem until today. got everything else...

I'm still struggling to finish Bad Signal. I can never kill the blue worm.

oh god they recreated the old school black ops 1 double tap EW😂

Grab the schematics and drop them for people who don’t have them donuts

d'Oh! Nuts!

What optics are you using on the holger?

I literally got 5 vr11 schematics in three elders and only got the blood burner key schematic

If you get the blueprint awhile cooldown it will go away because i had to wait for aether blade to be done joined team got blueprint then i could make abother one etc

It is the truth. went into the DA with 4 of the Epic Aether tools. in the T3.

Got permabanned yesterday for no reason, never played BR since warzone1 yet got banned, idky, was only playing zombie in mw3. was on last 4 serpentine camo grind. never buying from AC again.

Thats odd you said you think they nerfed the dark aether most people are saying the buffed it, one being myself. To bad there wasn't a bigger stash for all that good loot because carrying all that good stuff is nerve racking because of the crashes

Yesterday (3-22-24 or for the non-Americans, 22-03-24), as of typing this in one game, I killed dokkabie (however her name is spelled) and got the scorcher AND a scorcher case, and then went to the first elder dark aether and got THREE aether blade cases. How I did that, no idea.

W vid

if we could earn the cooldown to the schematics to get them reduced like with our insured weapon slots it would engage more ppl to play for longer. my luck getting sigils does not exist.

Finally, someone said. 😂 now yhe only problem is - i hoard. 🤣💀 I be dropping in with a rucksack full of epic tools and a crystal, and bunch in stoage with some legendaries to boot.

Doughnut don’t!🤣

Idk about anybody else but it seems like they nerf the outlast contract because zombies just runs around and don't attack you no more.

We need bigger rugsak

The bloodburner is wasted. Developers should make a mini game, something like Zombie Highway, and ride with it until you can, no time limit, crushing zombies, with increasing difficulty, no ending until we die, with some spots to repair, or with gas masks, and keep riding to see how far we can get, add crazy turns, pit jumps, etc

I dont think it so much them nerfing everything to make it more solo friendly.. i think its more along the lines of you playing more and more and becoming better and more efficiënt in the way you do things. At least i feel like thats the case for me😅😊

I don't know about that , seems kinda iffy lol donut mobile !

I think the better you play the better the Rewards you get you play well me im just a average player maybe i last 10 seconds in the tier 3 or dark ether
