No doubt you will have to spend money to get the cool stuff. They have a patent filed, no doubt there will me microtransactions for it. Customizable Killcams Coming To Call of Duty, MW2 Patent… | EarlyGame EARLYGAME.COM A patent has been filed by Activision for customizable killcams. If this technology...

it's pretty obvious you like to complain about everything cod. So complainers are gonna complain no matter what activision does First all the gun that started this bitchfest isn't available on the battle-past or as a bundle as far as I can tell . So the argument about pay to win isn't valid Second if you friends who play, it's dam easy to get the gun. Get them to drop it and pick it up. You can even do that cross-play so you aren't handicap by any platform Third the gun I have been using in Multi/DMZ which is my most successful is the Beta reward Frontal Impact (which was completely free). I played with randoms yesterday and got 45 kills with the beta gun so I don't particularly feel handicap Fourth, the battle-pass is not a bad deal. It pays for itself if you complete it because a number of rewards are cod points. So unless you spend on bundles, once you pay for it you can use the rewards point to pay for the next. So hardly a money grab given that we use to have to pay about $29 per map packs when that's what they did instead Finally, Slegehammer are the ones that brought us Advance warfare, WWII and Vanguard. I really don't give a shit what SHG has to say.

You continue to say PTW. Every gun for the past four years has been unlocked by doing some sort of challenge or in the battle pass for free. The blueprints for guns are purely cosmetic and do nothing for the guns handling or damage. If people want to spend their money on a fucking skin. Who cares. Personally I could care less what people spend their money on. I like to spend mine on hookers and cocaine. Hell you could say people that use Astro headsets or Scuf controllers are paying to win. They have an advantage over me since I have a normal controller and a cheaper headset. Boo fucking hoo. Get better.

Yep, I keep calling Vanguard WWII so if wrong but 50% right at the same time🤣

Vanguard you mean? But yeah, you unlocked some cool ones I noticed you did get for free. Some of the premium ones came within a bundle. A gun blueprint, kill cam theme, finishing move, a sticker an emblem. That will be 20 pounds sterling my good man, please do come again! 🤑.

I think they partially tested this with WWII but no doubt it'll have a monetised roll-out now.

Complaints are perfectly valid - Activision have literally patented several highly manipulative concepts which they have been utlising heavily for years. I'd also rather pay £12.49 for a concrete map pack on a game with 15+ original base maps knowing what future content we'll get set in stone rather than have a game launch with 6-9 (lol) deathmatch maps and then receive one or two maps every 9 weeks after that with many being old-school rehashes stragecially drip-fed when player counts dwindle. Black Ops 4 even manage to sell a season pass with no content described and then sell a blank tier battlepass on top - people paid up to £2250 for NOTHING🤣 This is a multi-billion dollar franchise and they can't even get a basic interface right yet a game like God of War is presented and executed to the highest standard and this is the level of quality we should get. You are literally justifying a company charging £25 on virtual P2W-leaning garbage we used to get in the games for free that didn't adopt this concept because the game was fair. It's not about the gun DMZ either - it's the beginning of a wider problem that has plagued these games since 2019. Infinity Ward also laid out their unstoppable range of P2W shotguns in MW2019 so no matter what Sledgehammer did with their game, the principles are the same between all the games because they are engineered by Activision. CSGO and PUBG do it right because it's purely skins - they don't need to rig matchmaking or the weapons to strengthen retention or manipulate income. People always seem to have short memories when literally every COD game has been the same way for years. I can only assume people duck out after a couple of months and then are totally oblivious as to the goings on of what they've left behind.

Personally? Love the idea, funny as hell. If its driven only by Microtransactions though? Nope. A bit of a waste if that happens. Need to get access for free on multiple parts first.

We're talking about conceptually especially in the long run. Either forcing people into other modes or buying battle-passes to get superior weapons. The DMZ weapon was bait to get people playing as a proof of concept by numbers but eventually they will release bundles or mode-specific content that gravely impact the core base MP. Activision literally have a concept patent for this too. Sure more and more people will get the current DMZ gun either legitimately or off a friend but down the line it will get nerfed and then they will move to other weapons - either paid or mode related which many people don't wish to play but will be on the brunt receiving end of it. The current weapon will be gone and forgotten about, nerfed and replaced with newer complaints. Sledgehammer said they wanted to keep Vanguard realistic so they would remove most red dots sight reticles and then 3 months later they were releasing laser beam projecticle shotguns at £27.99 which could kill halfway across the map. Let's not even talk about the one hit kill pistols or trickle shot SMGs that were OHK at £20. People either have short memories or don't play the COD games long enough to see the huge shift when monetisation factors really kicks in. The only way these games stop becoming shreadfests is when the developers finally nerf the problematic weapons strategically at the 11th hour to make way for the new bundle(s) regular as clockwork.

Turns out that all of the complaining was way overblown If you have a friend who unlocked the gun (and they have it saved in the insured slot) all you need to to enter DMZ. Have them drop the gun. PIck up the gun. Extract. Done Doesn't feel like so pay to win to me

Bought another game gear. I've recapped my old one, but it needs a new screen. This one came with a game, and the master gear converter. Going to look at sourcing my own caps rather than buying kits which should save some pennies.

Dark Deity was one I was hoping to get anyway so quite happy with this 🙂

Everyone on Reddit are saying they are much quieter than MP that it seems like they have them mixed up

I have only just bought Modern Warfare 2 so I might be a bit late to the party but, I really enjoyed getting on with a few of you guys @GazzaGarratt @Greboth@Macca89 and having a laugh. Seems to be quite a solid game, getting used to the guns and stuff but all seems to be quite similar to the previous MW. Will have to give the new Warzone a shot soon as well, so looking forward to that 🙂

So how is this any different than trying to get the Gjallarhorn on destiny? Or a bunch of other things that were only available if you did raids?

I'm officially disgusted, a new low for Activision. So as you will read in this article. A new Assault Rifle, one with low recoil and high fire rate. Sounds OP already. I've taken a few screenies to pinpoint my main points of disappointment. Fuck you Activision!!! Activision is locking new Call of Duty weapons behind its other game modes WWW.EUROGAMER.NET Fans have already started combing through all the new content coming to Call of Duty...

You lose the gun if it wasn't one of your insured guns.

You will have the base gun unlocked but you lose the blueprint from what I saw on Reddit.

These camo challenges are simple compared to years past. I hadn’t planned on doing them. I honestly was expecting to hate this game. I was wrong both times. Only LMG I’ve used is the RAAL I think and it’s really good

Your a machine Chris @TigerBurge I finished another 3 recently. Kastov 545, Taq 56 and the Pila. Using some of the Icarus LMG now (which I loved in the beta). Also trying some of the STB (Aug) Been leveling the RPG + Jokr as well. Probably going to try my first SMG soon and maybe the M16 once I've unlocked it.

I've heard with the new DMZ and unlockable gun, some people are experiencing problems. For some people after they have "earned" this new gun, they are trying to drop it for friends and afterwards loosing the ability to use it themselves. Maybe it's not in every instance, but for some the gun is locked again after helping a friend. Definitely some bugs needing ironed out, but not everyone has friends to play with and play solo most or 100% of the time. I just don't like the way they have set it up. Play this mode or don't earn it and miss out. It is coming as a bundle. As tedious as it was, I would rather the 3x sliding kills in 15 different matches they had in the other games. It's boring, but I can do them easily over time without being annoyed. I get more annoyed being forced to play a certain new game mode that doesn't interest me much.

It could be quite decent if they don't restrict it heavily with microtransactions. If some are free and you can grind certain challenges to unlock them then good. Would be cool if you could "create" or design your own.

I agree the attacks against works of art is a bit odd. I feel like there is a reason they keep attacking artwork, like there is a point that they are trying to make that we are missing, just down to the fact they keep doing it. If there is a reason though, then they are not getting their message across very well because no one is understanding it. That said, it does result in media attention which is what I imagine they want / are after most of all. No majoy protest has been successful without media attention and disruption. I hear people complain about the M25 protests, I guess I am in a fortunate position that it does not affect me but imagine if the Sufragettes just stuck to peaceful protest, how many years longer would it have taken for women to get the right to vote? I really feel for the cause, but whether they are going about it the right way, getting the right response etc I am not so sure they are.

"I COULD INDEED. BUT I CAN ALSO KILL YOU, TEA BAG YOU, STEAL YOUR STUFF AND EXTRACT. NOW WHAT DO YOU THINK I AM GOING TO DO 🙂 " Then post the whole thing on your YOUTUBE channel 😉

Shocker that consuming something in massively excessive quantities is bad for.

The presentation is basic on purpose perhaps J4MES. 😈 https://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/9901-customisable-killcams/

That honestly wouldn't surprise me one bit.

As I said above they can't do different values for Warzone and MP. So if they change footsteps for one then it changes for the other. Why they can't change it for both is a mystery. Just incompetence.

The footstep audio in Warzone is absolutely nuts too. Looks like they’ve brought MP in-line with that. We’re back to where we were in the beta with this - it’s footstep 1.0

@MrBiron just seen this 😁

They've 'fixed' the killcam weapon pictures - instead of it being a placeholder drawing, they are now using simple gun icons. There is no reason why they can't also add the attachment list on the right even if it doesn't appear as seen in the picture itself. Of course, the community has to spoonfeed obvious things like this back to the devs when it should really be set in stone Also not keen on the killcam presentation - what the hell is that Tanto shite? Looks like a Camcorder from 2003.

Another two down. Lachmann su. And Vaznev gold

This Call of Duty is hilarious at almost every turn. Thanks to proximity chat I had someone screaming at me, "YOU DONT WANT TO DO THIS, YOU DONT WANT TO DO THIS, YOU CAN LET ME LIVE." Also for them to add an Escape from Tarkov game mode (DMZ) was brilliant as well. Outside of this god forsaken UI, which is now even worse with the two other game modes added, this is the COD to beat for a long time.

This is another thing - they release bundles with OP P2W weapons and then they strategically nerf it so much once content sales and complaints have peaked, it entices people to move onto the next bundle. The cycle is basically:- buy gun bundle > gun shreds > people complain, gun gets nerfed after two months > angry people now happy > gun owners sad > Activi$ion releases new gun bundle > repeat to fade. So ultimately, people's gun bundle purchases become worthless after 10 weeks so they have to re-pop their dosh to get the next lavish weapon. Everyone who invested heavily in Warzone Verdansk and Caldera literally lost everything they purchased.

@IRaMPaGe lucky for us it’s a bullet hose and isn’t very good. I agree it does suck that we pay for a game and to have it locked behind something that’s locked behind a free to play aspect of the game.

I think one thing he's getting at is the pay to win aspect, true you don't need this shit and personally they can shove it but you know this thing will likely be OP till the next season when it will be nerfed in favour of the next OP gun. I also saw on twitter most saying they will just by the bundle and that is as sad a thing to admit as it sounds.

I guess I'll wait and see if it's an issue or not. We have plenty of really good guns. The AK-74, M4, AK-762 are nothing to complain about. Some of the previous challenges were also a pain in the ass. X slide kills to get a certain gun or play co-op to get an operator, blah, blah, blah shit I didn't want to do but did to get the reward. You really don't need them if you don't want to complete the challenge. You did pay for the game but I see nothing wrong with having to do something to earn something in game. That's a fundamental gaming expectation. You gotta earn stuff. Unlike other game you don't have to do loot boxes and other random shit. You know exactly what you have to do if you want it and it doesn't cost you an extra dime.

It's your standard pay to win model. I don't last on COD games in recent years but come season 3+, some people are literally kitted out with one hit kill AR's. If they ain't baiting people with the battlepass, it's to drive people to modes to bolster wider engagement even if they aren't overly interested in playing them. Activision have their playbook at hand and they also have concept patents and algorithms in play to maximise income, retention and player numbers. They know exactly what they are doing and which buttons to press. Pre-season was pure bait really.

It's different because I've never played Destiny...... Also I shouldn't be forced to play a new gamemode if I don't want to. For years we unlock guns for free in Warzone, Multiplayer and whatever gamemode you prefer. The choice was yours, not anymore! Or BUY the bundle from the shop. Play our new gamemode or Buy. Not play what you like and earn it the way you like. It's manipulation and a dictatorship. We paid for the game, we should enjoy all aspects of the weaponry added for DLC without doing their hoop jumping or buying it. It's just wrong man.......

The Pila is gold. Very easy challenge
