Will Blackout be ready for launch and will we see a single second of gameplay before release?

I always wonder: what do these developers do in 3 years that they didn't do in 2? Engine upgrades? Certainly little gameplay mechanics changes. Blackout doesn't seem to account for the extra year.

HD Asset creation takes forever. Then you have to avoid animation and clipping bugs *cough*Andromeda*cough*, schedule voice actors, motion actors, design models that will only ever appear in this one game, etc. Plus the QA, balance testing, UI, long-term dlc strategy, server stress testing, engine optimizations across three different platforms and four console SKUs... Support for six to eight languages, bug fixes unique to foreign versions, animation lip-syncing, and and and- Mister Facetious fucked around with this message at 22:54 on Jul 10, 2018 |

I recall a lot of outcry after the buggy launches of BO2 and Ghosts helped convince Activision to lengthen development time. It didn't make a difference.

It's like that joke about how the bureaucracy is being expanded to meet the needs of the expanding bureaucracy, but with bug counts and dev time/hires.

I don't know what's going on with the BR modes from these established games. Barely any info at all on COD BR and BFV.

Three years ago we didn't have 4k graphics with HDR. Read the interviews and articles. Check out the GDC channel on YouTube. Creating assets in HD- especially unique, one-off assets you'll never use again is incredibly time consuming.

Player base fragmentation is irrelevant because they're slowly but surely putting their eggs into the zombies basket where it doesn't matter. It wouldn't surprise me if they have data showing that the DLC attach rate for regular zombies players is higher than any of the other CoD mp demographics.

Well, right after saying that, I got the rest of my challenges for the Haymaker done in a few games so I guess the secret to unlocking its potential was to badmouth it.

Jesus Christ, the Argus is fantastic. Running around in the 2xXP Safeguard playlist with this thing and it's like the most fun I've ever had in this game just running through people's spawns and blowing them away.

Argus was my least favorite, but only because it was so incredibly connection dependent.

That could be argued for every COD. The Argus and the P06 seemed to be the two weapons in blops 3 that gave me the biggest fits and they were completely dependent upon connection.

Yeah we haven’t had a COD group in almost a month now? Or maybe I’ve missed COD nights nowadays since I’m rarely on but I still login for daily bonuses on IW and never see anyone playing anything. BLOPS4 beta is probably going to be the next get together.
