You would not believe how hosed up the beta is. Its like the code of the game itself got very very sick and is rupturing and hemorrhaging everywhere. Textures and random graphical effects blowing themselves up to 100000x size overtaking the map. Incredible

Give them a break, Activision only has 3500 employees from 5 studios working around the clock on this. You gotta expect a few wrinkles here and there.

I dunno man I’m torn

Little St. James got hit hard by the recent tropical storms, affecting not only its full-time residents, but Actiblizz CEOs and managers as well. And I’m like.. if all it takes is me and my boys ponying up $70 apiece for this beautiful island to rebuild, and fly in new girls, and once more see the smile return to Mr Koticks face, then hell yeah I’m preordering. But at the same time, the gameplay kinda sucks and the audio is busted. We’ll see…

This whole game is gonna be scuffed. Both sides have all the same characters, with only the name+reticle color telling friend from enemy, and all the friendly fire moments that causes are 100% gonna ruin Hardcore mode (which sucks for me cuz that’s all I normally play) also the weapons are butchered and ugly as all hell, which is saying a LOT considering this same team did CoD WWII and we all saw what the weapons looked like in that lol

The beta maps are also really very bad. The only semi tolerable one (Gavutu) would be a lower-tier ‘instant vote skip’ map in any other CoD.

as much as the operator skin things can be neat they really, really need to bring back the more obvious team skins. hell cod WW2 already did this! you had a lot of unlockable skin poo poo but the two teams were still distinct so I never felt confused. but I guess they can't sell me a Marine dressed up as an anime girl for $20 if they did that.


and yeah cod maps have been seriously downhill ever since mw2. almost every map in that game pwned, even the mediocre ones werent as bad as most of the new ones are. every new game has less good maps and more lovely ones with either way too little or way too much cover. poo poo is so bad on some of them that there's deepfried default texture maps for counter strike with better design

It's 2006. I am taking 276 yeti furs from the goodies hoard.
Even though there were some things I didn't like about it, it really felt like they were close to getting things right with the new Modern Warfare. Don't understand how they apparently didn't manage to keep any of that momentum

I can’t believe they’re going to put out such a mediocre entry within a month or two of the new Battlefield and the new Halo. Just the worst possible time for them to drop the ball

i’m half expecting BF to be even more hosed up than vanguard is. plus people are gonna be pissed when they find out they cant crossplay between old and new consoles. it’s a huge crap shoot, tho thankfully i got into the next halo playtest so i’ll get to find out if it’s busted or not and plan accordingly

They still are, MW was Infinity Ward, Cold War was Treyarch and Vanguard is Sledgehammer. They also made Advanced Warfare and WWII both of which I thought were pretty good so who knows wtf is going on

The 2020 CoD was originally a joint Sledgehammer-Raven production, but Sledgehammer and Raven had some kind of falling out (?!) and couldn’t work on the project anymore so Treyarch had to be quickly shuffled in Sledgehammer’s place which is why Cold War is so underdeveloped (campaign 2/3 done, using the old engine instead of the new MW one, etc)

The Cold War campaign is so weird because the non-canon bad ending is actually a solid conclusion while the canon good ending just feels like they accidentally forgot to include the last level. I guess that makes sense if there's some behind the scenes drama that Treyarch had to quickly cover for.
