Party in the streets! Possibly considered a die-hard CoD fan, I personally look forward to this release with unbridled anxiety!

JUDALATION5673d ago

I have played the game and I can tell you that Treyarch rushed this game... the story mode is trash! The lag is terrible but maybe thats because most of the host are in Mexico and other third world countries that did not respect the release date...the guns seem to be noobish ie no recoil... the perks are nothing new... the maps are LOUD and boring... only nice thing is the wager matches but they are only a few players and get old fast... id give the game a 8.5 but I know all the noobs will love it and give this crapfest a 10.00... and for gods sake if activision does not get dedicated servers I will never buy another game!

Ducky5673d ago

Complaining about lack of online players... on a game that hasn't been released yet. Heh. =)

So I guess its safe to buy for the PC then.

Losi5675d ago

Personally I've pre-ordered and pre-loaded through Steam. Don't need any of that release party fan fare for me.

Hell-Helghast5675d ago

I'm gonna drive into town and see how many retards are gonna be standing in line for mw2 2.5 since most of my game stores are like 5 minutes apart xDDDD.

sempercog5675d ago

It's not a release party without redbull and vodka!

With that said, Treyarch and Activision has done a tremendous job at marketing and advancing this title!

Can this mother fucker just get lost already

PRIMORDUS124d ago

He belongs in here ⚰️, hopefully sooner than later.

MrDead123d ago (Edited 123d ago )

Kotick Made $155 million from MS in the buyout, the little b*tch needs to stop whining. Thanks to this Microslop deal and massive industry consolidation thousands upon thousands of devs and other workers lost their livelihoods. This greedy piggie pervert needs shut up and f-off.

Microsoft needs to listen or risk irreparable harm to Call of Duty

Windows Central: "The money may keep rolling in, but Microsoft is the custodian of one of the biggest selling video game series in history. If something doesn't change, I fear we'll reach a breaking point and irreparable damage will have been done."

Because ms is so good at managing studios, surely they will get it right

:P

In my view, they should probably merge MP with Warzone and essentially make it free to play like Halo Infinite. The campaign/zombies mode can be $30 yearly DLC. I know this would be insanity as most COD players essentially pay the full price of the game simply for the MP. However-with a shrinking player base they may have to consider it. Making it free would bring in a ton of players.

Profchaos175d ago

To late MW3 should have been a lesson but here we are two years later with a steaming pile a shite called blops7

Nothing lasts forever, eventually something will come along to make people forget about COD

Halo killer once arrived and technically call of duty killer also arrived, its name is Fortnite

dveio174d ago

Call of Duty was riding the revenue horse and charts for ~20 years. Whether undeserved or deserved.

But I endorse everyone to remind you that Microsoft could have decided differently when they took it over.

The money was certainly there, and they could have taken their time revamping the franchise:

Current-gen tech, manageable microtransactions, not imitating Fortnite and returning to core values of the franchise's origin.

They didn't.

Let's see next year. Hopefully without the then 13 years old PS4 and One hardware.

blacktiger174d ago

you need to stop saying "let see next year"
