Really good video, I've got one criticism - I would say the Black Ops games (at least 1 & 2) are generally faster pace than Modern Warfare (1,2 & 3 haven't played the new one). The low TTK in the MW series encourages camping whereas the higher TTK in Black Ops makes people more comfortable to run and gun (also killstreaks could build off of each other in MW2). Really good video friend!

[@Kaceydotme]

I appreciate it! My own take on the pace of the games is likely informed a lot by my play style. I have really good reflexes and aim so I tend to play Modern Warfare a little more recklessly than most because I know I can win an aim duel with most people. Black Ops’s slower TTK means that aiming and shooting first doesn’t matter quite as much, and the movement is a lot heavier and slower (esp. without double time sprint) which forces me to slow down.

[@father042]

Ghosts, for all its faults, had quite a large amount of gameplay innovation. Squad Points instead of level-based unlocks and the perk budget (both great additions btw), weapons with pre-installed attachments, modular weapons, interactable environment, and npc companion kill streaks, and I'm probably missing something.

[@joec5680]

Good review. I completely understand where you’re coming from in this. Honestly, as you said, it’s all subjective opinions and it really depends on how engaged you are with the COD franchise in general. I personally really like this multiplayer because all I ever wanted in COD was to have Modern Warfare’s movement and gunplay with fixes to its main gameplay issues, slightly faster pace, better maps, and more 6v6 content. And personally, Vanguard checks all of that out for me and that’s why I really like it. I like Cold War but in terms of presentation and overall fluidity, it doesn’t hold a light to Vanguard or MW. It’s a shame that Activision’s advertising for this game in general was extremely weak and downright forgettable. They put little to no effort in it because it’s very clear that they just care about Modern Warfare II right now. If they truly want Treyarch and Sledge to shine, they need to give them the same attention as IW.

[@thuglifeinc4894]

MW 2019 brought people back to the franchise in some cases. It's a step in the right direction. IW has a great foundation to build upon. If the campaign follows the gritty and realistic atmosphere that the reboot had. All is good on that front. On the multiplayer side of things => The biggest issues with the MW reboot: 1. Color palette 2. Visibility 3. Map Design 4. SBMM Issues 1 through 3 aren't hard to resolve, the color palette and visibility issues are resolved with brighter colors and vibrant map locations. If the leaks are correct and the campaign takes places in Latin America. Those visibilty and color palette issues are fixed for the most part. Maps design is tough one to crack. What makes a good COD map changes from person to person. SBMM isn't going anywhere sadly. Finally, a good third game mode would help a lot with longevity

[@roguedogx]

20:15 personally I've been thinking about doing a compare and contrast with Watch_Dogs legion. As much as that game got wrong (the shift to almost forced gunplay particularly urked me) it did get some stuff right. the ability to recruit anyone was great, and the ability to use their individual traits, doing things like recruiting a cop so you can just walk into a police station, was a genuinely good idea. until it ran into the "forced gunfight" problem I mentioned earlier. -flying around the city on construction drones was great, but the broadline removal of fluid ground movement was not. -the addition of a cloaking device was great, the fact that it lasts such a short time as to be completely useless is not. my closing thought on the game is this. it's a striking contrast that despite the technical capability of the game is truly ground breaking it makes the player feel the least technical in the series. It's no longer a hacking game, its more like a mercenary game with tech upgrades

Great video - thanks for rushing this out and saving me time I might have spent on the campaign. This is my first cod since WW2 so I was a little curious if it would be any good. The only thing I don't think is quite accurate is what you said about attachments. There are a lot that don't do shit, but accuracy affecting attachments have a significant impact - whether your gun sprays basically randomly or is a laser beam. And vital basically functions as stopping power on the guns that have it. Essentially the attachments that do impact performance allow you to create some of the most broken guns in cod history.

Not gonna talk about the gamefeel cause what you said was spot-on, but, IMO Vanguard's wacky bubba customization and narrative would fit well in a alt-history "what if the war didn't end" scenario. Like, by essence since Activision just want a rerun of Modern Warfare 2019 with WW2 skin, they should at least go hogwild bullshit and did make WW2 game set in the 60s or something, when modularity start being a point in military armament developments and so they can at least justify having a goddamn red dot on a STEN. It's kinda what I expected from BFV just because the trailer show us insane (and in my opinion would be absolutely delightful) stuff like MG42 with angular foregrip and barret-style compensator implying we're not in proper historical setting anymore, but instead we got "GamersTM" crying about women in vidya and how there's "no cripples" in WW2 or some shit idk.

[@peoplebro_1294]

Some of my most favorite cod games are the mission that are heavily scripted the eighty examples being mw2019 clean house mission, and the wolfs den or missions or the semi open missions like the few marine missions in mw2cr mainly being were you have to take out the enemies via uav drone and protect burger that areas was just open enough to allow me to take cover behind various bushes near the edge of the level. The gas station you get near after avoiding the uav you can grab the javelin along with the lmg next to it, so when Foley tells you to grab the javelin you already have it already in your hands. Even the small detail they added when you kill two enemies that were supposed to be one at a time the ai would have commented on that action. Even all gillied up in cod4 was kinda open near the end where you try your best to flank and take cover whilst protecting macmillan as you wait for the chopper. I think if call of duty find a way to not fuck up a open world experience, they could really revive the series via that approach because right now the cod games are bleeding out and Id rather wait for lobbies in past cod games that are only being held together with tdm matchs.

Tbh I've played 15 hours of Multiplayer and I think all the maps are shit. The ones from World at War just play awfully in a modern meta. Zombies is unfinished Don't really care enough about campaigns anymore to even think that a good campaign would hold up the rest of the game. I'm probably one of few who don't mind where Zombies is starting as it might have the potential to be alright JUST ADD A FUCKING PAUSE BUTTON FOR SOLO!! But realistically I played it for 2/3 days and ended up playing Forza Horizon as soon as that came out yesterday and I'm much happier then the GTA Trilogy comes out tomorrow.

Cold war zombies offered more. And gave us more freedom. Without pushy or annoying mechanics to unlock things. Pretty straight forward. They did well with wanting to do something new (outbreak is a neat idea. ) I just hope they expand those ideas. And improve from it. Vanguard zombies. It's pretty stale.

@@oscarfunez3806 I agree, but remember they will improve upon it if they want to keep zombies players interested, apparently the first update will come with Season 1 in December. Don’t forget Cold War only had 1 map at launch as well. Although it did have a better progression (technically) with dark Aether skills able to upgrade. It was a bold move not doing a turn based map at launch (or potentially ever) but we’ll have to see what they have planned. With Shi No Numa in the game files already (as it is one of the locations in Der Anfang) I’d be fairly shocked if we didn’t get a remake of it.

@@lewiswaters8479 True on the statement. They can improve from it for sure. I'm confident they will add round based maps. As zombies has always had round based maps which everyone pretty much plays. And add outbreak but improved from cold war. As it is a neat idea to be honest.
