Black Ops 7

I played 3 matches on the Beta today. It's Advance Warfare named B07.  Wall jumping, double jump, OCD movement. I'm not going to be playing that shit

 

Guess they didn't get the memo last time about that movement non sense

A new Advanced Warfare sounds amazing to me. I'm now looking forward to playing the beta.

I don't think I'll bother with the beta - I got motion sickness just watching a few gameplay videos from COD Next!

It gets worse.  I have it for free because of Game pass which I will cancel once my price goes up. But it was just sitting there waiting to be played yesterday when I looked so I figured I would give it a go. Time would have been better spent watching reruns of Mr Bean for the 30th time

I played a few games last night and I enjoyed it 🤷‍♂️ The maps so far are a major improvement over BO6.  I quite like the extra movement we've got with the wall jumping.

Treyarch added a classic matchmaking playlist where skill was only used minimally and it was absolutely fantastic. Getting into a game took a few seconds and it didn't feel like you were getting screwed by the matchmaking system if you did well, plus I was always in lobbies with a ping of around 9ms rather than it jumping between 9ms and 40ms. It was actually fun.  It shows just how ridiculous SBMM is in this COD and how the system will prioritise skill over connection.

Hopefully they'll use that system going forward but I doubt it. If they remove it then they're fucked IMO as they've shown players how the game could play if it wasn't for their SBMM system so those players just won't get the game.

They added a non-SBMM playlist because the beta numbers were a trainwreck and those playing were complaining, but come the full game this wont exist and it'll be the usual SBMM nightmare matchmarking guaranteed.
