>Best cod in years>retroactively brick it to force people to new gamesYou don't hate activision enough
Cold war was better
What do you mean? I was playing it 20 minutes ago.
the game was fucking awful and saved by both covid and warzone
>>73988953610v10 is gone. Half of the ground war maps are gone. Hardcore matchmaking is busted. Was stuck with vanguard ui and music for years and was only just recently fixed
Like all war zone era cod this game would much better if the game wasn't actively punishing you for playing good. Its not a coincidence that after doing good the game puts you in a 100 ping match
>>739889536>>739890302They also removed half of the playlists when mwII came out
>>739889416Kys>>739890302>>739890875Wtf? How come i've never heard about this, i got it on the 90% sale miracle just for the SP, don't really care about the MP, but this is bulshit.
>>739890747That's by design. You don't do good on your own, you did well because the algorithm gave you a retard lobby.They have designed the matchmaking to behave like a slot machine, most of the time it's insufferable and it keeps feeding you occassional fun matches because they want you to keep playing. The more you play the more suspectible you are to their upselling and digital e-shop. Read some theory, wikipedia is there. Compare this to your own experiences with the matchmaking.Best option is to uninstall any Activision trash because it's not being honest to you on any level.
>>739892116I'm well aware of all of this. I think the game actively throttles your server connection when it decides to give the other team the win as well
>>739889151Was this is the last cod game to not have a completely fucked dev cycle? Mw4 seems to be the first game since to have a normal dev
>>739889151>retroactively brick it to force people to new gamesThey do this every time. Turns out that it stops working so well when you don't make one good game for such a long time.
>>739889416FPBP
>>739894267>They do this every timeNo game got it worse than this one
>>739890302>Half of the ground war maps are gone.More than that. Game had 10 GW maps by end of its lifecycle 9 dedicated ones and one additional was Aniyah Palace that was just added to GW playlist post launch after people suggested that since that map was massive for regular modes. Since late 2022 only 3 maps are in rotation and one of them is Aniyah Palace lmao.
>>739890302Yep. Got scammed out of 90 dollars and ill never get it back. Fuck Activision
>>739892116so wait, I thought they got rid of all of this with bo7. They're bringing this shit back? Are open lobbies a Black Ops only thing?
>>739895527Euphrates bridge is also just completely gone from online play. Not as much a loss as the gw maps since that map kinda sucked anyways.
>>739895928that garbage was only good for trailers
i lost track of cod after mw2 back in like 2010have there been any good games in the series since then
>>739895415This is result of retarded concept of rotating playlist updates where they take out and push maps into playlists weekly. After games arent supported anymore playlists remain in state of last update and thats it. With MW2019 they took out maps because they fucked up something with late Vanguard patch and MW2019s GW maps were constantly crashing. They ofcourse never patched that as they said they would and just took all these maps out of playlist rotation lol.
>>739895928Map wise they took out like 60% of content both that was at release and post launch. A lot of remaining maps can be played only within specific playlists too so if you dont play certain gamemodes then you basically have 6 maps in rotation while you should have 13 kek.
>>739896025Depends on your definition of good. Classic style multiplayer probably peaked with mw2/mw3. Black ops 3 was a high point for zombies. Cold war is the last one I think you can call "good" without an asterisk next to it.
>Makarov is still alive and got away with everything at the end of 3>the trailer for 4 doesn't even acknowledge himhow underwhelming will his demise be?
Played mwII and was disappointed did mwIII multiplayer have anything going for it? Thought bo6 was pretty disappointing as well
>>739896525MW3 doesnt have anything going for it.I think its the most chronic example of no effort copy paste in the whole series.
>>739896525MW3 MP is literally just MW2 but fixed and more polished. Thats it really. I had fun with it but you can only polish a turd as much.
>>739889416This, still playing
>best codyou deserve the garbage they keep putting out
>>739896994Is it even alive? Last time ive tried 2 years ago it was ghost town apart from fucking Nuketown playlist ofcourse
>>739897149Unless you were searching for 12v12 moshpit or some niche mode, it's not dead by any means
>>739893630Kinda wild its not a bigger story the hell the cod dev teams have been under since bo4. >Bo4 was heavily reworked last minute and given a battle royale and campaign cut>cold war was meant to be a sledgehammer/raven game but was a complete mess so treyarch had to come in and make it in 18 months>vanguard was rushed and treyarch had to come in and make a shitty zombies mode>mwII developed through covid>mwIII rushed together by sledgehammer in 16 months was meant to be year 2 dlc for mwII but got turned into a full release >bo6/7 made simultaneously by treyarch no offline play or turning data streaming off
>>739897149Pretty active. Less than mw19 but matchmaking functions better
This games gunplay feels actively at odds with the map design and slide cancelling movement. I like gunfight though
MW19 is the only good COD since BO2, even though on launch most of maps were garbage and everyone used M4, 725 or both.
>>739889151>>739897075>in yearsWas the best compared than to the recent years prior and what came after.>you deserve the garbage they keep putting outI'd switch to something else if there was any real competition. I refuse to play free to play shit and don't like battlefield and halo is dead
>>739889151I just finished cod bo1>shitty optimization on pc>so much focus on the main character made the war feel less real>ahistorical plot>le ebil nazi scientistThe gunplay was incredible tho but I am not liking zombies and I don't know why
Sucks that theres been no real cod competition and halo has been dead for 15 years now. I take no pleasure in giving activision money but nothing else scratches that itch
>>739899441>literally every other PvP FPS on market is hero ability shitOverwatch mindraped so many designers its insane. No one even tries to design FPS without hero abilities lmao its just CoD and even they tried with BO4 too. Its fucking retarded. Last time anyone tried was Splitgate and then retarded subhumans with sequel did guess what - pushed in hero abilities.
>>739899441>>739900486I was almost hoping when microsoft bought activision they'd make cod exclusive so sony would freak out and fund their own fps
>>739897408I don't know why sledgehammer still exists. every single one of their games have been commercial failures by COD standards. Infinity ward has massive normie success, and Treyarch has an army of fanboys that will gulp every piece of garbage they make. Sledgehammer had 1 (one) decent game 12 years ago
>>739900825They were making one and it got cancelled twice lol.
>>739900938To be fair last time Sgh had proper dev cycle for their project was with WW2 back in 2017 lol. After that they were third wheel support for other studios.
>>739896751They didn't fix the netcode in either. This is more apparent in "DMZ"/Zombies for MW3 where that dogshit will lag.
>>739901178>WW2 copies Battlefield's Rush mode>No maps ever added to it.I'll never understand ATVI's copying other games and dropping them.
>>739900938>>739901178At this point they should have raven and sledgehammer switch roles
>>739900985>>739900825Sony had resistance and killzone and let both die out
>>739901637Resistance 2 multiplayer is one of the best ever made. There I said it. I fucking loved multiplayer in that game back in the day.
>>739901583Aren’t Raven stuck in the WZ mines? WZ is always way more successful than any stillbirth SHG pushes out, so swapping roles would be putting worse devs on your peak moneymaker.
>>739898518>>ahistorical plot>>le ebil nazi scientistpick one
>>739898518I like how schizo bo1,bo2 and cold wars plots are
>>739889151>each grid is 100 possible map combinationsI like the concept of killblock. Just hoping they don't pussy out because streamer fags can't farm nukes from 9 year olds on stream
>>739902584what's that?
>>739902676>>739902584New map/gamemode in mw4. Map changes mid match
treyarch>infinitiward>sledgehammerI know bo6/bo7 are shit but they still have a better track record than infinitiward. Sledgehammer is just retarded through and through they have way more bad titles than good but I will say my favorite sledgehammer cod was advance warfare
>>739901739Not gonna happen but warzone needs to go
