It may not be dead, but after playing almost daily for years, it’s been two months since I’ve played. And I don’t miss it. I can’t imagine I’m the only one

[@ZaOnly420]

I stopped playing after bo3 , I went threw a rough patch in life so I missed everything up till mw2 2022. When I finally got my own place with Internet bought a PS5 and I haven't stopped playing as someone who missed the release of warzone 1 . I have had hella fun on both wz2 and wz3 with 3 being way better . Ups and downs but I still have t stopped and don't see myself stopping anytime soon

Ghost is the dark horse of the entire cod series, this game evolved cod.

[@F1RST_BLUD1]

All due with 3 things 1. It had its perfect momentum in pandemic era which caused more players to play and stay in house but sadly went away after 2020 2.The games were becoming mid after mid after Cold War. 3.BTS on the game making and leaks which already spoiled so many people but their fanbase always complaining about "sbmm" or smth

Brining us back to a time where cheats and protected lobbies do not exist. Forcing the Low skill players to get good or never be on the top of the leader boards. This is the best part of old COD.

[@UnknownSource08]

I bet you moan when the toilet water hits your butt hole

[@ManiakaLBob]

In case people don't know, Treyarch was forced to make those World War 2 games (or any game of a past era or make a future era game) because infinity ward solely held the rights to all "Modern era" Call of Duty titles. That is why they never put out a modern shooter. Now, I haven't followed along for some time now, so I don't know if those contracts have expired but at least in the past that is why they were always forced to do something different than infinity ward.

[@imflashman5557]

Did I miss him talking about Blackout??? That was their first BR and it was awesome!

[@F0xSH0X1]

You guys forget one thing; CODs survival at the start is probably linked to Halo. Max Hobberman ( Bungie/ Halo ) and the engineers created FPS as you know it today for console. 2 weapon loadout instead of a weapon wheel. Dedicated grenade button. Configurable controls. Leaderboards. Friend lists. Party systems. He refers to it as a the virtual couch. Before this it was just chat rooms. Take away what Max, Halo, and Xbox did for Xbox live JUST for Halo and I’m not sure Cod survives other than maybe its campaign. And let’s be honest.. how many people care about campaign like we used to?

[@MR.takeyaPayday]

Wym campaign most important thing of cod/halo whole reason both blew up aside both multiplayers

[@micahwest2793]

Cold War was one of the top 5 best Call Of Duty games all around great campaign, multiplayer and zombies. Just needed more maps on launch snd and right when it started getting there Vanguard came out and killed it.

[@Milesplowher]

I like how he said the franchise was dying from ghosts until MW reboot which just isn’t true. They were still breaking sales records every game. In fact, in 2016 when IW caught a lot of slack and hate while BF1 was adored, they still outsold it. COD has just always done well, IMO the difference now is it has no competition in the AAA space, so it just continues to soar.

[@Matawann]

Its a good video breaking down COD's past, present, and future. Little details he missed though, like not including Blackout (COD's first BR), MW@(2022)'s negative reception, and having the modern warfare 3 (2023)'s being taken over by Sledgehammer once again. Pretty solid video overall. I remember hearing about the drama with Jason and Vince vs Activision and thinking none of it since I was little.

[@EpsteinNoSeppuku]

A lot of people forget that ghosts was the console switch game back in the day. People disliked it before it came out and many struggled to play on old gen. As such a lot of people stuck with BO2 and shit on ghosts despite barely playing or not playing it at all. There’s a reason a lot is misremembered about ghosts and why tons of features from ghosts have become popular in future games.

[@yabrojobro1906]

The way I see it, they should start doing a MW title (current settings, fast paced play, modern weapons) Black Ops Titles (past or future but still boots on the ground. Exploring different positions in the past and possible future conflicts, more methodical gameplay. And finally, and Advanced Warfare series. For the people that still want the advanced movement, crazy stories, and a hodgepodge of everything. Make that the 3-year cycle, and if the title you prefer didn’t hit as hard, try out last years or wait for the next years. It gives each series a large life cycle, different types of play for different people, and they can continue battle pass and seasons for all three. More money!

Call of Duty was like an addiction for me. No matter what I did, I somehow couldn't get away from it. Like in a toxic relationship, you hoped that CoD would get better again. (Of course, that never happened because money is more important than developing a good game). At some point I made the leap and I have to be honest: I don't need CoD anymore. There are tons of shooter games that are not only much better, but also more fun.

[@F1RST_BLUD1]

When games like COD have their resurgence around 2020 (no pun) its fun but when covid times are over and bad games and updates that can kill the reputation it used to had so thats why COD is really low, even with WZM. .

Idk. I’m old. I’m 50. I started out with the original Counter Strike in college. And I realize that COD is an arena shooter. But you almost have to be at a pro level to win a game in any mode. So I walked away from it about a year ago. I tried Insurgency Sandstorm. I like it. But it was glitchy on my PS4. So nowadays I just watch Doc and Timmy.

[@xJoey2213x]

God I wish we could’ve lived in a world where IW didn’t fall apart during MW2, apparently they had a patch ready to nerf OMAD Tubes, Commando Lunges, and some other bull shit before they got fired, such a shame. MW3 was kinda like a nerfed MW2, so I wonder what that original team could’ve done with MW3 if they never broke up, bummer. I am on the team that likes ghost as well, probably the best time for Competitive COD, League Play BO2 was the best ranked play in history, but Ghost made Comp COD blow up like crazy

[@Spladoinkal]

I liked Ghosts too but I also only played the campaign and hardcore mode. I never played core multiplayer even once that I remember.

[@michaelrendler3703]

I disagree with his take on Black Ops 4 completely. It had plenty of content. It was actually refreshing that Treyarch focused on what people bought COD for, which is the multiplayer. I don't know how you could be confused why it was full price, considering it released with the most multiplayer content of any other title. Blackout, zombies, and multiplayer, it was easily one of the most fun titles they have released.

[@cma3602]

Moder warfare2 was gonna end up being even better then what we see it as now. Vince wanted to make major updates to the quality of the game that would have made it the BEST game ever made

[@Alliedboy117]

In defense of Halo 3, everyone needs to understand that despite Halo 3 on a week-to-week basis not being #1 every week after its launch, it did have the most weeks throughout the years of 2007, 2008, and 2009 of being #1...hence, Favyn's video of: Halo was only REALLY POPULAR Because it had No Competition" is a BS Argument. check his video at 1:01 for his chart citations as well, indicating that Halo 3 was the most played game on Xbox for 3 YEARS IN A ROW I am not mentioning this to discredit or hate on zenkaigoose; but only just to keep the point he is making in a proper perspective, context and praise of CoD i would post links to goose's article source from 7:38 (along with the source of the journalist who wrote that article source) but links are disabled on this video

[@DBDax93]

The only thing that will kill Call of Duty is COD. The reason it is not dead is because COD was so many ppl FPS game of their childhood, teenage and adult years. Those ppl still hang on to the idea that COD will go back to those "glory days". Another reason it won't die because it is so popular on the consoles. PC has multiple options outside of COD like a CS GO, Valorant, etc. While on Console aren't many shooters u can turn to. COD will continue to be mediocre to bad as long as it want to because ppl keep buying it. If you want change in your games vote, or speak with your wallet.

[@Coinsortium]

cod2 is still my fave all around cod ever. great campaign and great MP maps. real skill shit there. no bs crazy loadouts and perks. just know the map and fucking know how to aim

[@coltonlindenman7255]

[@400LBGorilla]

First person shooters are an incredibly popular genre. CoD does it best. Sorry to say it but the combination of controls, feel, options, community, content support after launch there just isn’t another game maker that does all of it better for an FPS. Other games will flash in but how can you compete with a billion dollar franchise? It’s impossible to compete with that kind of investment in developing a game.
