Modern Warfare II Post-Beta Review & Feedback! | (Will it be a Good Game?)

[@How2HateYT]

I think its hilarious they defended Dead silence being a field upgrade by saying "it makes combat more predictable" but then chose a squad spawn system which makes the entire game unpredictable and chaotic all game.

[@grrinc]

Infinity Ward contradict themselves so much

[@zffrailgun1630]

The statement is contradictory even when you take it at face value. How is combat more predictable with a mechanic that's sometimes active and other times not, while the activation depends on when and if the player decides to use it? How is that more predictable than simply knowing a person would have DS equipped and you'd need to be extra careful at all times? Don't try to look for consistency in IW's comments, you won't find any.

Their logic is impossible to follow.

[@danielbetancourt6174]

Not only is it a field upgrade again, but it takes time to activate, and the enemies can hear beeps when you activate it

[@RushyoRifle]

People keep talking about dead silence, but no one seems to be talking about the "walk speed" setting which allows you to raise or lower your base walk speed and it says in there that a walk speed below 25 significantly quiets your footsteps plus you can actually bind a separate key that will engage slow walk mode so you could leave your base walk speed fast and have a key that gives you dead silence on demand just with the trade off of walking a little slower. This is actually better imo because you don't have to take up a perk slot.

You'll probably mention it in the next video, but I really hope we get detailed stats for guns and attachments in the final release. It so confusing having like 6 different "stats" that mention recoil, and all of them affect the "recoil control" bar so you never know what exactly any attachment does. And the damage, too. The bar is always about 2/3 full, so you can't know how much actual damage a gun does unless you test it

They want the loud footstep audio to be a central part of the game. They're never adding in a DS/Ninja perk. It goes against what the game was designed to be.

[@TheBlueBunnyKen]

The footsteps were adjusted like 6 times in MW2019, but were never lowered. Only lowered when crouch walking or ads walking, also reduced volume through surfaces/walls. The general footstep volume stayed the same

[@someweeb3650]

Lowering them through walls is effectively lowering them in general. Footsteps stop being useful when you have line of sight, because if you have line of sight they should just be dead by now.

[@Sky_Pie]

One thing I find interesting is I never heard footsteps during my beta matches because I can't use headphones nor turn up my volume high enough to hear anything. So it was like everyone else had a perma-dead-silence while they heard me loud and clear. Maybe that's why I'm .2 - .5 K/D...

[@fabian731]

Wich is fine. The general footstep audio is not the problem. That you can hear them trough 2 or 3 Walls like they running around with Wooden Shoes is the problem. They need to reduce the audio for situations like that, the general footstep audio is actually fine.

And they will no doubt to the same with this game lol

[@Husker_]

Thanks Ace. I’ve been playing COD since COD4 and for the first time ever I canceled my preorder. I’m old and washed up. I don’t have the aim to challenge a mounted sentinel on a head glitch. The only play style that works for me is going full stealth with an smg and trying to flank and getting up close and personal. All of the changes they’ve made have practically completely eliminated that play style. I’ve never felt so lost and helpless in a COD before where I didn’t have any way to counter. I simply didn’t have fun playing the beta being restricted to one kind of play style. It just sucks because I wanted to love this game and get deep into it and go for the mastery camos. This game has so much potential and could easily be a great game, but the gameplay design decisions are holding it back. Everything that would need to change are all very simple changes! At this point I’m going to wait until launch and see what the game is like and then I’ll decide if I want to buy it or not.

[@vMurdered]

Being able to hear MY OWN footsteps is a major problem to me. This punishes people who push even more. I'm so loud that I can't hear other people moving. So I have to stop and sit still. This is creating a very slow play style.

[@grrinc]

I think enemy footsteps ought to sound slightly different so you can differentiate between your team and enemy. Maybe a slight metallic jangle sound mixed in.

[@vMurdered]

@@grrinc yeah I'm fine with that. They have made it clear they aren't going to lower foot step audio. So I at least want to be able to move without me hearing my own steps like i am stomping in Iron boots.

I don't mind my loud footsteps. For me it gave me a reference point on what exactly I am walking on. Besides its not that slow, if you think it is "very slow" play some Ultrakill for 50 hours and jump back to here. Then talk to me about how slow a game is.

[@Darkreaper31]

I had the same experience. First weekend was pretty damn fun. Second weekend I quit 6v6 and moved to Groundwar. The museum map has what seems like hollow wood floors and the footsteps are insane. The SBMM definitely felt way more strict. I had a much less relaxing time around this weekend.

[@MushToast_]

Museum is just also way too big for 6v6 in my opinion. Especially with squad spawns there’s no direction, everyone is just running around hoping to find someone or just contesting that walkway in the middle of the map because at least there’s people there.

I really enjoyed the first weekend too. It was really full of action. The second weekend was already full of campers. It's incredible how it changed/ruined the game. I mean ffs, it's the beta, move, run around, you have nothing to loose. I think they should find a system where campers are all put in lobbies together. Let them all sit in their corners together, with their claymore and shotguns and get zero kills because no one fucking moves.

[@MuscledRMH]

Extensive feedback after a fun but also frustrating Weekend 2 beta (also posted on the reddit feedback thread). The removal of the respawn delay / fly in camera in Team Deathmatch was a great change that really benefitted the pacing of the gamemode. I would like to see this change implemented to all core gamemodes like Domination. The removal made TDM better paced than Domination which actually really disappointing considering it has actual objectives. I'm able to get more kills and action in TDM than in Domination simply because you (and other players) can get back faster into the action. Having loud footstep audio is not a problem. Having loud unrealisticaly loud footstep audio is. Right now, footsteps are so loud (even after the weekend 2 changes) that when I'm slowly trying to approach an opponent and I'm not walking beloew 25% it still sounds like I'm stomping the ground. It's absolutely shocking how loud it sounded in the enemy's killcam when I tried to sneak up to him. Having footsteps this loud and perk to at least reduce the loudness is just hurting the game's potential and gameplay pace a lot. It's so loud that you are basically being punished if you aren't using your headset and really focusing on them. Dead Silence as a field upgrade is not only temporary, it also got nerfed to the point it isn't even fully silent anymore. Instead of adressing the reason why Dead Silence became such a crutch in MW2019, you guys decided to nerf it. Please nerf the general footstep audio or introduce a Ninja perk that at least reduces the loudness so rushers aren't being punished for everything they do while campers / sentinals are being fully rewarded for their playstyle. The endless discussion of no red dots on the mini map... This isn't the biggest gripe I have in the game except for the fact that this is another layer of punishment towards players who don't want to use headsets all the time or just want to have some fun games with some people around them. It's not only having an effect on gameplay pacing, but also on the accessiblity of the game. On top of that, there are plenty of attachments and ways (like a Counter UAV) to prevent red dots being visible on the mini map. Right now, it feels more like a protection of players who can't strategize around unsupressed gun fire and/or aren't moving to prevent the red dots from giving away their location. Why is there no map voting? What was wrong with a feature that enabled players to choose what map they want to play next? A major flaw of not having any veto or voting system in MW2019 was the fact that it felt like I was playing the same maps in the same rotation over and over again. It actually hurt the variety instead of offering choice. Treyarch brought it back in Black Ops Cold War and I don't remember anyone complaining about having the option to choose your map. This is core feature of Call of Duty that just got robbed from us. The perk system in MWII just doesn't cut it and will only cause frustration over time. Not only does it put players who join late in a disadvantage (despite the timer, it still does not equal the earned score), it also adds nothing to the experience except for a delay in utilizing your playstyle and setup. Looking at the general balancing of the perks, it seems like a perfect fit to just remove the timers and make it a 4 perk system. I think this would work very well, removes unecessary delays and complexity and would help to better balance a match in general. The spawn system in MWII is the same squad based spawn system as MW2019. This sadly does not work very well for the overall predictability of a multiplayer match. People are spawning at random locations that could signifcantly impact the overall map control and flow. It also brings a lot more faulty spawns. The user interface in general is probably the worst we've ever had. When I started the game for the first time I had to SEARCH to open the actual game. On top of that, it has become extremely difficult to find and invite friends. It's not designed for MnK and controller users at all and feels like a mobile UI. We have to go through so many clicks to reach the area we want to reach. This is a major downgrade. A small but frustrating part of the game is the lack of deaths on the scoreboard for all modes. We are playing a shooter game were people kill and get killed. It should be a no brainer to have this information available to you. Instead it got removed yet again, just like you guys did in MW2019. I don't remember anyone asking for this to be removed nor did I see anyone complain about it being visible. Why would you take information away from the player about their performance? Cold War had it and it worked just fine for everyone. If it's against toxicity, there are plenty of tools available to prevent it. Please stop sugar coating everyone to make them feel good. If only, this adds more frustration that positive feelings. Matchmaking also felt very heavy on the skill selection. Playing against the same level of skill over and over again gets very exhausting. There is no room for a variety of players being mixed together to offer a fun and different experience every match. It's all the same type of matches every single game with people using the same loadouts every single time. This has been proven over the last couple of years were SBMM was heavily present. I don't expect changes for this, but it is not a good system to create a fun and healthy game were people are sometimes challenged by higher skilled players or are sometimes surprised by a more easy going game.

[@kjak94]

Solid well-articulated feedback! It's a shame IW doesn't seem interested in making these important changes, instead they just seem to be interested in developing a game that feels like a copy cat of other popular FPS games. And because this is a 2 year game, it's frustrating to know that if I want my call of duty fix, I need to go back to BOCW in what will be its 3rd and 4th years.

Ultimately, I can live with the new perk system, no problem, but they NEED to address the footsteps audio and tune it down not just a little but quite a lot. The second week of the beta I felt like I could play matches without even seeing... All I needed was my ears to predict everything and felt like wall hacker.. Its sad when you just start to concentrate on hearing and not seeing... Also straffing speeds, a little tune up and also for the aiming walking movement speed of attachments

great review, glad someone pointed it how incredible the audio is technically

[@justjordiano]

1000% agreed. The problem that you alluded to is that we - meaning the 20 or 30 somethings who have experience of the COD 4 till Black Ops 1 days aren’t the target audience anymore. The target audience is now clearly brand new gamers and kids. To them a dead silence perk, proper mini-map, trade offs with suppressors etc is foreign to them and therefore IW will never implement anything mentioned in this video.

Footstep audio is a dealbreaker. It’s easy to adapt to that playstyle but it’s just so boring to do. The game shouldn’t punish you for moving.

You learn how to fight your way out and get better at the game.

[@TheXenaFilms]

Absolutely spot on! This has the potential to be the best COD we've seen for a good while, everything feels so damn smooth, from gunplay to movement. The biggest downside I have seen so far is the footstep audio and how loud it is.. Hardpoint will suffer because of this, especially in a competitive environment.. Imagine the opposition team has both the setup in defending but the audible directional footsteps, It just becomes a game of how many of are waiting for dead silence to push the hardpoint. PLEASE IW If you change only 1 thing, please let it be this!!! Please

[@jongustavsson5874]

Spawns are quite horrendous as well though in my opinion. 3 deaths in Domination, each spawn at a different flag, utterly disregarding who actually held said flag. Hell, most matches ended up with each team having capped at least 30 flags, which is a stark contrast from older games where it wasn't at all unusual to have single digit caps in both teams. It's basically spawn at enemy flag, take over and defend until enemy teams spawns on you and you die, spawn at another enemy flag, rinse repeat.

I only played the second weekend and I agree with pretty much every stance you took on aspects of the game. As a player who mainly plays SnD id really like to see the perk system reverted despite really enjoying the SnD experience in the beta.

[@geeyeah14]

Gotta say I was really excited for this game because of the feedback we had on MW19, as the games we got next fixed most of these issues too. Really thought that we'd get a more fun and chaotic game with MWII but they decided to make worse everything that was already bad with the previous game. I did have fun with the Beta though, but simply I don't see myself playing this game very much so I ended up asking for a refund. Btw you mentioned loud footsteps as a perk. This is something that they did with SitRep Pro way back with MW2 and MW3 and it worked very well for people who used their ears for footsteps as one of the key forms of awareness, Ninja/Dead Silence used to be on the same tier as well so you had a trade off which is great. To add to that, if they want to keep the current perk system, I bet Ninja and "SitRep Pro" would be great perks to add on the second or the third tier of perks, so you get one or the other.

On the perk charging idea I've got an idea. Personally I believe you should have your usual 3 perk tiers and you should be able to choose 1 from each.

And we still have our traditional perk system as well.

They need to hire a group of KZbinrs like yourself that have a logical thought process when it comes to changes that need to be made post-beta. Everything you shared just makes so much sense, couldn’t be more spot on, and is what would make cod great once again. It’s almost like they lack genuine feedback from real players. Having online meetings with said people, or even in person meetings, could just make this game develop into something so much greater. If they genuinely listened to this groups feedback and forced those changes based on a majority vote standpoint, the game would just adhere to that many more people. Because you aren’t only thinking for yourself with your explanations, but you’re speaking for everyone and understanding all play styles and I know other KZbinrs do the same. It would create a much more balanced game and would be a unique method that led to a long-lasting devoted fanbase.

Lets be honest, the most requested changes wont make it into the final game. Enemies will stay off the minimap when firing and dead silence will be exactly how its in the beta. i think footsteps will get a slight decrease in range and volume . and i hope they seriously review the visual recoil and put it in line with MW2019

I do hope they leave it as is. I do not want myself or the enemy popping up on the mini map.

If they cut out the garden area museum would be perfect There's just nothing going on there other than people camping the ramp leading to the museum and the ledge above it
