wait, i thought skill was only a minor minor part of the matchmaking formula? now we’re admitting the normal formula is intentionally tuned sweaty AF?

It feels like CoD has been out of ideas for a decade. Basically "rebooting" Modern Warfare bought them some time, but here we are going back to the "fighting robots in the near future" well that nearly killed the franchise.

CoD devs could take a shite in a box, and it'd sell millions of copies.

Maybe the tides are finally starting to turn.

Cod is pretty much a white label version of xdefiant now

Just tried to play a few matches on Xbox but performance was so bad it was a slide show. All other games playing fine. Is this a one off or has the whole beta been bad?

I downloaded the open beta today and played two games. That was enough.

Genuinely curious as to what you think the solution might be. You can't just stay in WW2 times for forever.

CoDs roots were real battles during WW2. there have been more wars since then.

Perhaps the jungles of Korea and Vietnam?

The deserts of Iraq and Afghanistan Desert Storm and GWOT?

from a single player experience, BLOPs 1 took place during Vietnam, but nothing about the single player was based on real events from what i recall.

they might've tried to link the JFK assassination to some of the fictional story telling they were trying to do, but that's about it.

Would instantly purchase an FPS game based on Vietnam.

Battlefield Bad Company 2: Vietnam is my favorite shooter of all time

its cool however a lot of people hate the way the old guns look. caldera and vanguard had some absolute horrible looking guns that would take up half the screen.

Thick jungle like soulmask. With guns and booby traps instead of primitive weapons.
