This is the ultimate guide to find the new Avenged Sevenfold easter egg song in Astra Malorum Black Ops 7 Zombies.
Another night of Fortnite with the boys then?
I’ve never played Fortnite GTAV or CoD BO7 but I do own GTAV for PS4/5 because I got them cheap.
What exactly are we not getting?
Did we not just have a 2025 filled with nice games like...
Silksong, Doom TDA, Expedition 33, Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, Ghost of Yotei, Dispatch, Split Fiction, Hades 2, DK Bananza, and so many more?
Agree that all you just posted are great games. Expedition 33 is one of my favorites. Spent a large chunk of time on BG3 in 2023. Another for my all-time list.
My point though not well articulated in the OG post is that we would get more of the games of the quality you mentioned if so many valuable resources were not allocated to FTP slop and/or heavy monetization schemes. Some of what used to be my favorite franchises have been ruined by them.
To sum it up, I would like to see games like 33 outperform the profits made by games like Fortnite so more resources are allocated to great games. When heavily monetized FTP games are at the top of the list, we end up being stuck with a significant chunk of games that are not good. Or worst case scenario games that spend years in development, but get cancelled due to industry trend chasing.
Popsicle, I actually think we're getting more great games because of the slop. Developers are seeing that people aren't happy and taking advantage of big AAA studios not delivering for people.
Skewed and Reviewed have posted an Opinion Piece that explores options that can be brought to the Call of Duty series in order to address fatigue and fan frustration.
I used to be a big zombies player.Just go to old format no fluff no loadout,gobblegums just the old perks and the zombies.
shagri-LA was a hard zombies map that made it great! monkeys took perks zombies came fast they had the big fire zombies. great times.
Easy
Step 1. Remaster and release MW2 (original) MP with full support for many years to come.
Step 2. Release new COD once every 3-4 years and actually put quality and effort into campaign and MP.
Step 3. Keep OG Classic SBMM for normal non ranked playlists forever.
Step 4: COD Zombies should be it's own thing, it's own release every 3-4 years with 2 years of major content support. The only mode I enjoy playing anymore from cod.
...Not that they even need to anyways as they'll still sell, why they'll keep doing yearly releases with minimal effort.
Go back to being single player focused and make sequels to a few of the on off games.
wdym go back? cod has always had a major focus on mp, I put hundreds of hours into cod1 not because i was replaying the campaign for the 25th time in a row.
Reduce instal size
Support the Switch 2 like you said
Take a break... at least 2 years
Make the game less focused on MTX and Passes
Create something new with new assets
Stop with the stupid stories. Our at least make it interesting.
Inside Gaming writes: "In what seems like about of recognition of the poor review scores and lack of hype around the latest Call of Duty title, Best Buy has slashed the price. Right now, for one day only, you can get Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 for just $34.99, barely five weeks after release."

From IGN:
"Clearly, all is not well in the world of Call of Duty. Black Ops 7 appears to have struggled for players and sales relatively speaking amid tough competition from the likes of EA’s Battlefield 6 and Embark Studios’ Arc Raiders, and coming out just a year after Black Ops 6. Microsoft is yet to announce a player count or a sales figure for Black Ops 7, nor has it detailed any boost to Game Pass subscriber numbers as a result of its launch. Clearly, it hasn’t met its expectations.
Last month, sales data suggested Black Ops 7 was struggling not just against rival shooter Battlefield 6, but also last year’s Black Ops 6. The Game Business reported that Black Ops 7’s European launch saw opening week sales down 63% versus Battlefield 6 during the equivalent launch periods for each shooter, and Black Ops 7 also down by more than 50% versus Black Ops 6. All in all, Black Ops 7 had a “terrible” launch, The Game Business’ chief Chris Dring said in a post on social media."

"Black Ops 7 physical sales down 61% as it fails to beat Battlefield 6 launch"

On Steam Battlefield 6 is currently in the top 10 at number 8, BO7 is at number 82 and fast falling out of the top 100.
Replies(5)And the fact that game sales are at an all time low. I've been saying for a few years, gaming is about to crash as it did in 1983.
I'm so glad I didn't have to purchase COD last year & this year due to having GPU. I like COD for the Campaigns & Zombie mode, this year's COD campaign is just horrible, played it for 45 mins & deleted it.
Wow call of duty really need to come up with a banger of a game next time if they want to survive this. It's gonna be about going back to the roots. This Fortnite cartoon apex style call of duty they have now is not gonna survive one more game. Please Activision come back to the roots with the games we all fell in love with.
