I might try it.
I like hardpoint and Control. S&R not so much.
I did a lot of rank play on COD mobile and it was fun. Will see if they pull it off.
Nice thing about it is that people won't be able to complain about Skill based matching. This is inherently skill base matching
And that's the only place where strict sbmm should be.

Based off the last 4-5 CoDs, we ended up playing MW2019 because it was pretty solid for a number of years and Cold War and Vanguard didn't cut it at all. If MW2 can stay supported and not get too many rubbish balance patches that screws it up then I see us playing MW2 for much longer than usual. May get the new one for the Campaign though as MW2 was the first CoD campaign i've done for ages.
We probably will play it longer because the new one this year 🤣 will be made by sledgehammer games 🤣 so I'm still seeing mw2 as a 2 year release. Definitely won't buy a cod for campaign.

Whether we like it or not, the Developers are asked by Activision to churn out a new game every couple of years which means they dedicate a large portion of that time to the Campaign and re-use old assets where possible. If you don't re-use assets its widely known brand new games take around 7 years to create, especially AAA games. So within a few years they focus efforts on what Activision want. Yep, old maps after a while are annoying if thats all you get but thats where I'd expect a new map every so often to balance out the map pool.
🙂
Just on this note they used to churn out a new game on a more regular basis "back in the day" with better and more content. The only thing they do churn out more of these days is gamemodes 🤷 Maybe we have to put up with poorer quality for diverse content which I suppose is ok if that's your bag which obviously isn't the case.
I think @cyberninja2601mentioned how cod mobile is and maybe a push to take MP the same way and just add to it on a rolling cycle.

@J4MES OX4D, you'd take a returning map from a previous game over no map surely? I mean, even if you go by what most people have said about CoD over the years you could argue that no one wants new content, just all the old stuff put into one game 😄
Yup I'd settle for that especially with infinity ward but they'd probably bring back stonehaven 🤣

I've always said most Battle Passes aren't worth their money as its all pretty much cosmetic if you care for that stuff.
Map wise it depends if the 'Battle Maps' will have a part of it that can do 6v6 like Taraq does.
I did say we'd get 3 to 4 maps with one maybe being new. I do expect a further map to be introduced mid-season like Season 1 had 2 reintroduced.
All I've seen regarding mid season additions. Have seen there is now shoothouse and shipment separate playlists woohoo.😁

I've never seen or been interested in anything Harry Potter infact the social media stuff especially twitter is as much interest as I've shown and it's simply ridiculous but where social media is concerned that's nothing new.
There was a streamer getting hate in the chat while playing thorough the game and believe he may have posted an apology 🤦
The only other thing I saw is how many content creators 😬 were whining about how they won't do a review as they didn't get a free copy.

A lack of a decent alternative is why Activision just keep doing what they want. They know people will buy COD no matter what.
Just literally typing the same thing, it would be nice to see something challenge CoD. I don't expect anything will, Bf2042 really missed at least a decent opportunity and Titanfall failed.

That's even with the hate campaign against it on social media due to its ties to JK Rowling.

If you don't care about your stats etc and I don't and if all you want to do is camo grind shipment is the quickest way. Shoothouse being in the rotation and it being a moshpit just helps vary gameplay. If the game didn't have so many trash maps I'd probably hate shipment but it's chaos for me actually makes it fun.

I don't feel the need to defend these companies at all. What I can't stand is all this whinny ass cry baby shit from people I doubt were ever responsible for a multi billion dollar product line and calling the people who do it dumb and greedy.
I think it's in my PPR that I have a PHD in electrical engineer and I work for the Intel network communications group. I designed the first graphics chip with integrated analog circuits , I designed the first north/south bridge CPU, I designed and validated the first PCIE switch with broadcomm . Now I designed the ASICs that went into Nokia/Ericsson/ZTE 5G network architectures and I see a bunch a people posting on what developer and companies should be doing and how as if they had a fucking clue.
Even James telling us all about patents. Somehow I am pretty confident in saying that he doesn't any of own however.
If you want to make a point to these companies the solution is simple, don't buy the product.
COD 2022 made $1B on 10 days on a budget of $250. They're clearly not the dumb ones
That's all well and good and about as relevant as a fart in a crisp bag what you call whiny ass cry baby shit, apart from being childish, is legitimate critiscms and I'm sorry you can't see that. However one could argue that people who are willing to put up with mediocre products and buy said products regardless of quality is the reason we get sub standard products in the first place.
It's true we could just simply not buy the game however some of us actually think with a few changes the game could actually be good.
Oh and I think it's in my ppr that I'm a mechanical engineering technician, I set program and operate multi million pound machine tools for a multi national company manufacturing multi million pound components for the oil and gas industry and have been doing so for 36 years....and you know what that means to this conversation ? Exactly the same as your credentials .... Fuck all.
Now you may think this is a perfect product but some of us don't and think it could be better.
One thing I will agree on Activision aren't the dumb ones the cod community are.

Seems pretty brilliant to me. What's dumb is paying $70 for a game that only has 9 maps and continuously complain they have a multiplayer with only 9 maps when they do that every single year instead of just going to play the other modes and have fun with it.
Yeah let's spend our free time playing gamemodes we aren't remotely interested in just because they made them. 🤦
The fact is if you by a product no matter what it is you have a right to criticize it especially as they don't only release 9 maps every year.
I don't understand this need to jump to defend at all costs these billion dollar companies when people have legitimate gripes, surely if they were to do something about it you would benefit too?
If your happy with the game then that's fine but please realise there are plenty of people that aren't the player count and social media etc prove that.
Now time for some more mw2 excuse me.

As far as I care about any of this crap or these streamers. The fact he put this cringy apology out surely made it worse. Not sure the reason for his wife being in the background was a great move either.

At this point they may as well just say they don't give a crap about 6v6 multiplayer. Guess they will be working full speed on selling crap to fools.
As far as a "new" map goes I really aren't expecting much hopefully it will be "fun".
I look forward to people still defending Infinity Ward.

Can't say I'm surprised. There is a decent game underneath but IW made changes that weren't needed that players hate (the perk system for example) and 3 months into the game there is a lack of 6v6 maps still. If were we still on the Map Pack model then we'd have had our fist map pack now and 4/5 new maps.
100% agree.
Still the Activision social media employees are out defending / debunking this 😉

I tried to see if this is true, charlie intel did post a pic on twitter of this map but.....
