Just tore through some TDM on Afghan and I was back in 2009 - in a good way. I really am enjoying this game.

Multi
- Every lobby is a sweat fest because of sbmm.
-Spawns suck.
-Hit registration is still bad. TTK still inconsistent.
-There’s not a single map from og mw3 in this game (terminal doesn’t count) probably because the maps were supposed to release for mw2.
-some nasty head glitch spots on maps (this can either be good or bad depending on if you’re using it or not)
-The armory unlock system is bad. I don’t want to do daily challenges to unlock core items (trophy system, kill streaks, dead silence etc).
-gun audio is ridiculous. I would love to know how they came up with the sound for some of them.
-map voting is back which nice.

MWZ
-It’s basically dmz but with zombies. They even ported over the dmz bots
-not sure if there’s much replayability when finished with the story missions. Camo grind?
-needs more vehicles
-the gas mask animations will get you killed in aether nests/infested strongholds.
-needs an alternate round based mode
-timer needs to be extended or just taken out
-camos are nice. Borealis might be my favorite mastery camo.
-no pvp. Makes sense because it would suck to have to worry about a train of zombies and some dude camping on a roof.

Campaign
-trash


TLDR If you’ve played the last 2 modern warfare games then expect more of the same and get the dlc.

For 70 dollars it just reuses warzone maps and has like 4 hours of content.

Sounds like the same lame bullshite EA Sports does with Madden every single year.

I can't really find a thing to disagree with here.


However, I am still enjoying the Multiplayer for now.

And I just want to express how stupid the armory unlock system is. Some items can be unlocked early, ie, don't have to wait until level 48 to get whatever, others seem to be armory only. Lame.

MW19 was so good. It single handedly put Cod back on the map (not that it left but it was THE game to play again) and ever since it’s been disappointment after disappointment after disappointment.

The game is literally a DLC for last years game that they are selling you for full price.

Activision can go frick themself, won’t be buying.

Yes for 70 dollars, all they did was bring back red dots on the mini map, changed unlocks, clean up the UI, and drop maps. Its a DLC with Zombies instead of spec ops or whatever. Not saying there's anything wrong with the game or how it plays.

I'm just against the model of releasing an update that's 70 bucks + tax if it was like 29.99 hell yea sign me up.

I don't necessarily disagree with this. I just took issue with the term "reskinned". Its basically the same game with a few new guns, a new gameplay mode, and some maps that weren't in rotation for a few years. DLC is a more appropriate term, it seems, but I guess reskinned isn't altogether wrong either.

SBMM has essentially ruined modern COD for me. Why have a ranked mode/playlist then make pub lobbies equally as sweaty?

As a Dad, I get to play maybe 3-5 hours a week. I want to login on a Friday night with the OG’s and shite all over the majority of pub lobbies.

I bought this game after not playing COD since 2014ish. All of the maps are the ones I used to play back in MW2. Have they not made any decent new maps? These are literally over 10 years old.

Every lobby i've been in is a sweat fest. Idk if I just suck now or if going against computer players has to do with it (im on ps4). Its also annoying how they transferred over levels/loadouts, so while im starting fresh all of these nerds have the best guns/attachments/perks.

I havent tried campaign or zombies yet so we'll see how those go.

They only started with guns they unlocked in MWII. They had to run through the levels to get most of the other load out stuff. Some can be unlocked through the Armory Unlock system, which sucks arse.

Not condoning it but that exact business model for a game prints money. GTA and Destiny 2 are guilty of it as well.

Everyone wants to run and gun like the computer pros/influencers until they realize their K/D is going to tank because of Crossplat and SBMM.

I hate cross plat but it isn’t going anywhere because PC never had the player count for this game that the console has had in the past. CoD on PC before cross plat were lower player counts and higher hacker counts. It wasn’t the go to experience.

I also believe the current gameplay of CoD actually favors PC. Especially in movement. Console aim assist doesn’t not top good movement and you can not move as fluidly on console.

I have my FOV on max and my controller sensitivity at 15 and still feel handicapped by slower fps. Feels like it just can not keep up in most situations. Especially run and gun/ objective based game modes.

I say all that to say.

CoD was better before SBMM and cross play. It is not that way anymore and because of that…the sweat grows sweatier.

no, no they haven’t. every iteration of COD. New maps come with the new game, players hate the maps, and they re-release old maps.

You.... You know you can turn off crossplay and not play with PC users, right?

Yes but it takes longer to get into a lobby and it really isn’t that big of a deal to me at this point. Just my observation on the state of the game.

This is 100% false. Can't find a game on PS5 if I turn off crossplay. Same thing with Fortnite.
