The NEW! Call of Duty General Thread: WW2 is only slightly broke

And yeah i still play blops3. Even my gf commented that IW looks bland colorwise

Donā€™t even both with anything not named the Combat Shotgun. Advanced Rifling only increases the distance you can get hit markers.

War Mode has the least amount of BS. Also gets me the most XP.

Few updates have helped make it playable but still feels meh. Still salty no bigger games. Treyarch better fix this next year

Currently playing AW for the first time on a old XB1 like a hipster. So lit. :sunglasses:

War mode seems to be the one mode everyone likes, because it turns COD into Battlefield.

I kind of fell off caring about this game, but something had me peek back in. I heard that they were giving Pistol Grips as supply drop content. I thought:
"Isnā€™t a pistol grip the part you canā€™t reallyā€¦ maybe I just I donā€™t know guns, let me google this."
Googles it
:rofl::rofl::rofl:

It was exactly what I thought. These fools actually made the part of the gun you canā€™t really see that well (the grip is obscured by the hand 90% of the time) a type of thing you can get in a supply drop. Obviously to pollute the lake with garbage so you have less chance of getting what you want, but still. I have to just laugh. Thatā€™s a straight insult.
Now that Iā€™m digging through the internetā€™s reaction to this game, itā€™s apparently doing NOTHING right:
-The maps are garbage.
-The higher level killstreaks are just not worth it.
-There are glitches and bugs. An out of map glitch was recently fixed, but in combat sometimes what the other person was doing on your screen is 100% not what they were doing on theirs. Like, you shoot someone who seemed to have his back to you, but was looking at you the whole time.
-Grenade spam is back in full effect, some say due to Pick 10 being gone (which took away the option to replace a grenade with something else more useful).

Thereā€™s a lot of other stuff, but Iā€™m going off the top of my head here. From what Iā€™m hearing, itā€™s like Sledgehammer learned NO lessons from either Infinity Ward or Treyarch. They wanted to be different so bad theyā€™re doing bad stuff just on the basis that itā€™s different, like this Division system.

Do you think things would be better if Sledgehammerā€™s role in the 3-dev cycle was handed off to Raven?

i play tdm and dom, those are the most fun modes. why dont they have shit like fracture(blops3) or momentum(AW) anymore?

Because the game is uninspired shit :coffee:

Real talk, war mode makes me forget shit like killstreaks. Itā€™s basically rush mode which is fine it just needs a bigger player count.

Wow. This game may have sold the best of any COD in years, but itā€™s taking a hit community wise. All I can say is that I hope that Headquarters mode doesnā€™t make it into Black Ops 4. The only real purpose of that mode is to sell supply drops. And the development of that mode took development time away from the rest of the game, it seems. I mean, a lot of WWIIā€™s shittiness is squarely SHGā€™s fault, but that mode cannot have helped things.

BO3 had a simole small hub in the campaign that I loved. HQ in WWII was wasted space.

HQ mode isnā€™t going anywhere, it is there to sell loot boxes through peer pressure.

And I bet itā€™ll be the main focus of the menu too.

One of the prime complaints about WWII (though small) is that headquarters is the first item in the menu (after a certain time of having that first item be Public Match IIRC). Now people hit it by accident a lot and there is rage. It wouldnā€™t take ANYTHING to move the menu items back, but gotta make that money.

I seriously hope we have quite a few more ā€œPride and Accomplishmentā€ EA-Level public backlash incidents, to the point the majority of the game buying public catches on and stops going for these games. Slim possibility, but outside a law, it seems thatā€™s the only way to make these publishers back the fuck up.

WW2 DLC 1ā€¦

Two new maps and one remake

Iā€™m already back to BO3/IW/AW and waiting to open my own Christmas gift (Xbox One S) to play the older COD games.

I only care about that one war mapā€¦ainā€™t paying 15 for one map lol

Go play MWR, itā€™s a good game.

Fun Fact: Resistance, the map being remade, was already remade for Infinite Warfare months ago. Itā€™s called Ember there.

Iā€™m pissed that WWII sold so well. Everything, from Sledgehammerā€™s community support to supply drops to netcode to maps to DLC and beyond, seems to indicate that SHG dropped a turd onto peoplesā€™ laps. But they were able to go back to BOTG when the casual fanbase wanted it the most, so they get all the sales.

I will say, though, that I hope these cosmetic variants WWII has that make the gun look a little different while being the same (kind of like Kits in MWR) make it into Black Ops 4. Thatā€™s a little cool, at least. I paged through an imgur collection of WWIIā€™s variants and some look really awesome.

If the franchise were to make a successor to this title, they should make a segment of boot campā€¦

I still play MW3. :sad:
