Verdansk Is COMING BACK To Warzone... But There's A Catch

Call of Duty Warzone has Verdansk returning to the game in early 2025. But this leak and rumour says that it is coming with a catch!

[@jamesmackenzie5904]

Terrible decision like this are killing the game, so bored of Warzone at the moment.

[@choosing.tangent]

i uninstalled CoD altogether last night. I have played since the original MW. enough is enough. moving on to HLL and Insurgency CoD is now a Fortnite/Apex hybrid. yuck

[@jamesmackenzie5904]

@@choosing.tangent yea it is totally a Fortnite Apex hybrid now I think about it. I also think the fact they are still developing for old gen is holding it back. Something really feels off about the game, it’s just worrying that Warzone is potentially going to remain very similar for a long time.

[@K_____]

It’s too fucking sweaty man. The stacking and camping is off the charts as well. It’s just not what it used to be.

[@fireballs7346]

I already uninstall the game becuz the removed the find a party feature...wont be back until they bring it back

They will never be able to recreate the magic of Warzone in 2020-21, each release after will always be disappointing, but I will still give them a try

[@papalazarou7880]

If they release a new good Warzone map, people won't play another Warzone iteration.

We need a map rotation. One map gets stale.

[@da-ms]

​@@nicknorris100 no lie at least 300 gbs with 2 big maps

[@nicknorris100]

@da-ms it's why they need to get rid of the old gen already. It would run better and would be able to be built with newer specs and save storage. It's honestly why I think the new map got pushed until end of 2025. I think blops 6 will be last of anything cross gen

[@R3DST1CK]

Why can’t they put all of the maps in the game? Pubg does it.

[@patricktiefenbacher]

Very good question!

[@muhaa4144]

Too many gamemods, also you have solos,duo,trios and quads so finding a match would be a pain in the ass

[@patricktiefenbacher]

They dont have to give us map pick, but a map rotation, so it isnt an issue for finding lobbys

[@Cheapsh0t247]

And have each map playable in all the different squad sizes for all game modes

Pretty much the whole player base is wanting verdansk back so can't really knock it and say you won't be getting new material for 2 years. Verdansk on the new engine with all the new things should be better

[@papalazarou7880]

Verdansk on the new engine (The old Engine is miles better) with all the new things (Backpacks? Terrible Buy Stations? Awful Audio? Heart Beat Sensors with batteries?) should be better (Absolutely zero chance).

Shame that it seems technically possible to update the game mechanics onto an old map, but they wouldn’t do it for DMZ…

[@aibel99]

I've been waiting for the return of verdanks for so long that now I'm bored and over it.

[@jimmypresley3729]

Couldn’t agree more with this video. We need a big map rotation with Al Mazrah. They recently just bumped the player count to 120 and i cant tell a difference at all. The pacing on Urzikstan is mind numbingly boring most of the matches. They need way more players on the big maps. And what if they dont have 150 players on Verdansk? That would be a huge let down also. Seems like warzone has been going backwards with features.

[@jakeianwilliamson5155]

Warzone should change its name to Copy n Paste. Think they want to make maximum money in the store with minimum staff working on it 😂 probably takes less resources to revamp a map that's already been designed already then the resources it takes to design a new one. Yes I love playing Fortunes and Rebirth but I would prefer a brand new map over a revamped old one any day. And Urzikstan hardly being changed is frustrating as I play more BR Than Resurgence. In all honesty I am waiting for a new game to move too.

[@lucass.r.4885]

Ppl are clamoring for a big map rotation now. Urzikstan and Al Mazrah would be fire. They brought back Rebirth and Fortune's Keep and it's cool, but just like what you said, not having a brand new map for BO6 at launch is gonna be disastrous.

[@papalazarou7880]

Al Mazrah was horrific.

Imagine if treyarc made a warzone

[@riamriam6758]

Verdansk had 488,000 active daily players at its peak with mw19/warzone verdansk and over 100 million downloaded players after 1 year. They haven’t had that many players since. That says a lot about what people like, movement, guns and maps. Warzone 2 has about 70,000 active players. It has nothing to do with the pandemic as Fortnite is still doing 230 million players today. Bring back Verdansk with the mw19 movement and allow players to use guns from any cod up till mw19 and watch the player base come back to life and devs will see the money flow again. Verdansk made $5M per day back then. And now with only 70k active players, they won’t even make half of that.

[@StrongCurry]

I gotta say I only started playing again because they re added Fortunes keep and then later Rebirth Island as I played it a ton back on WZ1. Its still not the same as it was but I was able to have some fun. Verdansk won't bring me back to playing as much as I was before. Nostalgia hits hard but we need to let verdansk go.

[@da-ms]

They need rotation br maps it get stale

[@choosing.tangent]

they are setting themselves up for the scenario that has hurt BF, where you have a very vocal player base that is not going to embrace anything that is not BF4

[@tuna-2779]

This whole time i've been hoping to get the feeling of WZ1 back. It's not the map, the game was just fun to play even with all its flaws. I haven't loved a game like that since the original MW2. Sadly i don't think that will ever happened. The game is so far from what the original Warzone was. I think they need to make a brand new standalone Warzone game with rotating big maps, take out the cheesy rubbish and invest in a better servers

[@jarirmuthana5642]

Personally don’t care for blackops 6 i want verdansk back

[@patricktiefenbacher]

Urzikstan is so boring, it doesnt makes fun to play on this map.. i can not play this map a year longer.. if they add Verdansk so late and doesnt bring a new big map with BO6, so much players will leave Warzone and maybe never come back..

[@azurewolf8488]

Love your content mate, keep it up! I sincerely hope this isn't true bcz I understand they want max attention on black ops 6 and all but at least if ur going to put Verdansk on the back burner then release the new map at the end of yr since it's ready, 2 big maps at the end of the same yr feels wrong... I hope this isn't true or we're in trouble 😅

[@38kal]

Call of Duty should have new BR Modes and Resurgence Mode.. BR should be team of 5 cinco and have every BR Map all in a rotation.. And Quads for Trios for every Resurgence map made in rotation.. Then create brand new maps for Duos and Solos and have rotation for that.

[@Pharaoh_The_Great]

People are still giving these AAA devs their time and money? 😂

[@primiSC]

Brain sick ppl only....

[@garethgrey351]

100% agree. Its a disjointed progression. The hype of Verdansk also wont hold me for more than 2-3 months. It also wont play the way it used to. We aren't all barricaded behind the "safety" of our front doors, with few other interesting options. Times have changed, and they seem to be hedging their bets based on 3-4 year old market research.

[@tobbym6241]

This is really bad, there has to be a new big map close to BO6 release.I wont buy the game if this is true

[@johnwick-mh9ry]

This is bound to fail from the beginning. Do you all remember how successful Verdansk was? It was incredibly addictive-I used to wake up at 4 or 5 am just to play solos or with my teammates. The engine was fantastic, with awesome mechanics and gameplay! Now, we have a really bad engine, and the game just doesn't hit the same as Verdansk. It's nowhere near as addictive, and that's why they're going to see all-time low numbers in player base pretty soon.

[@1990sDialUpWeb]

Verdansk should have been the selling point of this year leading up to 20205

[@DrewIsARealBoy]

I only came back after over a year and a half for Rebirth Island coming back. Despite what some people say half the male population aged 18-35 would take the next week off work when/if verdansk drops

[@HenryTownsmyth]

yeah, but with new gameplay, not interesting after a few rounds. I liked Verdansk together with the gameplay style it had in the first year. Everything after that was abysmal: childish skins, crazy movement, footsteps sounds gone and more.

[@Lizard-e7y]

I hate the idea that they need to bring back old content because it will only make people happy for like 2 weeks. (thats what happened to rebirth island and now rebirth island personally is my least favorite map rn)

[@worldsbest91]

Genuinely not excited for anything to do with cod anymore. Verdansk or not, you just know theyll fuck it all up somehow, because thats their track history. My boys switched to pubg and while its not perfect, it beats putting up with the cod shitshow.

agreed it’s a bad idea to back burner a new map thats ready to go. disagree that verdansk itself wont bring a ton of people back. battlefield will have to release a game that isn’t a total flop for it to take players away from WZ, especially if they bring back verdansk.

[@Catch_u_reloadn]

You're right they shouldn't have got rid of anything in the first place they should have added to it took it away and then added to it for the new engine and then left it in rotation leave it all in rotation then add some new maps then you'll have a true need for the Call of Duty hub
