Activision need to fuck off every studio but Treyarch.

Honestly, at this point in time it seems that Treyarch are the only studio that can make a decent COD.

 

IW haven't made a good COD since MW2 and Infinite Warfare (excluding the campaign) is hands down the worst COD I have played.

 

Although I enjoyed AW it seems that the community didn't and a lot of people dislike WW2 as well. Plus the helped make the MW3 MP which, whilst being OK, wasn't as good as previous MW games.

 

For me, Treyarch haven't made a bad COD yet. I never played WaW but all 3 Black Ops games have been absolutely fantastic and the most fun I've had in COD MP.

 

So Activision should fuck off all the teams apart from Treyarch. Get them releasing a game every 2-3 years and get them constantly updating their current game until the new one is out.

I can still remember the hate Treyarc got after BO1.  Think I even made a Gheyarc logo of some sort. 

Connection issues, guns, even gun sounds got hate. 

And the lovely lost connection to host image that you got several times in a game. I guess that was mostly douchebags dashboarding though.

MW2 and MW3 are still my favourite CoD games. BO1 was shit for about 6 months until they fixed several very big issues, like getting an actual party to work, then it was a decent game.

BO2 is the worst CoD I've played along with what ever the fuck the first exo-suit game was called. Fucking bullshit hitmarkers from sniper shots to the chest, getting killed around corners as if every bullet is straight out of that Angelina Jolie movie and some of the most boring maps I think I've played on any CoD. WaW was good for 6 months then everyone and their mothers managed to hack it and treyarch couldn't fix those issues. In the end they stopped even trying once most of the players moved on to the newer games.

 

I didn't bother picking up Bo3 and the other one. If I wanted to fucking jump around like the people in a house of pain music video, I'd go play Halo.

 

But in the end, it all comes down to preference with this, I know a lot of people who love the treyarch games and hate the others and vice versa and it's just about which games they did well on and which they enjoyed the most rather then which game actually worked better.

So much of this is personal preference... I thought BO2 was the best CoD, other people hate it

WW2 is definitely better than Ghosts, AW, IW.

Almost agree I'd have trouble placing bo2 in a list with the modern warfare series because of how I enjoyed them, definitely my top 4.

Bo3 was a fun game but like bo2 alot of us found it had to be hardcore and im not sure why treyarch games suit that mode better. I think bo2 had some great maps and some of the best killstreaks in any cod.

Aw and Iw complete dogshit 😁

Treyarch are the only developers left in the franchise that I trust although I didn't like Black Ops 3 that much particularly the campaign and overly-complex zombies. The mechanics were solid but things like the specialists and the colour pallet diminished it for me. I think Black Ops 1 is the best multiplayer game of all time and Black Ops 2 being the last amazing COD; I really hope Treyarch can replicate that success away from these futuristic games. It's heavily rumoured that the next game is going to be modern and I wouldn't mind them having a controversial crack at Modern Warfare 4. A new long term series wouldn't go a miss either. Hard to believe that Treyarch were slated back in the day especially after World at War and were accused of 'playing it safe' compared to the ambitious of Infinity Ward. 

 

The new Infinity Ward are a huge studio comprised of staff thrown together from all directions in-house - I believe they are the largest and most expensive one on the books of Activision after being formed as a 'Super Studio' a few years back.  Quality of staff matters more than quantity though and when you have a load of personnel unfamiliar with the franchise or the technology; things aren't going to go smoothly. Ghosts was a dreadful follow up to Black Ops 2 and Infinite Warfare albeit having one of the best campaigns for years; the MP aspect was unfinished and atrocious.  The franchise never recovered after the departures of West, Zampella and the closely-knit team.  I do recommend people picking up Infinite Warfare for £5 on eBay or in other bargain bins just for the campaign as it's worth it for that. 

 

Not a fan of Sledgehammer - find them too ignorant and arrogant and they have by far the worst relationship with the community. People were signing their praises for going back to boots on the ground but it then came out that Activision told them to do WW2 after they were making Advanced Warfare 2! Another studio that's out of their depth in this franchise. They are just cycle fillers really and I don't think they have the best interests of the community at heart - only themselves.

 

I think we're stuck with what we've got as Activision wont want to pay off or dismantle any studios as it'll cost too much, cause a lot of disruption and may not be beneficial in the long run. Looks like were stuck with one proven studio, one that's made up of Tony Hawk and Guitar Hero devs and other that's full of moros. After how shit MW:R was; I wouldn't have much hope of Raven jumping in either. I bet they're busy on making MW2:R to bail out Infinity Ward once again on their next game in the 10 year anniversary.
