I played a few MP games… gotta say I’m not enjoying it at all. Something about firing the weapons feels off. They lack any weight or strength feels like using bb guns.
MW 2019 was the reason I came back from not wanting to play COD MP to getting excited again about COD, but for now goodbye COD.

Edit: maps suck but not as bad as MW2

Maybe play more than a few MP games with a larger user base before formulating a final opinion?

 

[BigLee74]

Good or not? Which one is it lol

You can only judge for yourself. Nobody’s opinion should mean a jot to you.

I quite enjoyed MW3 campaign, even the semi-open areas - a lot of others hated it.

I detested with a passion the MW2 campaign - a lot of others loved it.

MW2 campaign felt like a fan game. MW3 had a strong "made during COVID lockdown" flavor. I really hope this one will be good.

If you follow development of COD, you would of seen ahead that MW3 was never going to be even close to regular campaign output. The whole thing was a mess.

I didn't follow it, I was just hoping they would raise the bar and get closer to the bombastic MW2019 one.

Of course. I shout that out from the rooftops. I forgot to put an /s

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

I've been playing the 4th mission for nearly two hours now, it's a pretty neat sandbox

 

[Branded]

Will Warzone also launch with the new movement this weekend or nah?

MWIII season 6 isn't over yet so no.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

I just hope the campaign is decent and Zombies is a good time with teenage kids.

 

[Calverz]

Holy shit the campaign is good

Played a bit of the campaign. Not good so far.

 

[mrqs]

First CoD I'm playing in a long while. This campaign sucks. What's this narrative? It's pure exposition and then some gameplay moments. Super weird, not sure that's how Black Ops 1 was as I loved that game, but it was so long ago...

 

[twilo99]

 

[Lucifers Beard]

Ah I was hoping I could grab a free trial of PC game pass to play for a bit this evening since I haven't had a sub in a long while, looks like that promotion is well and truly over lol. I'll have to wait a bit longer!

 

[RAIDEN1]

I've yet to get into the "Cold War" episode of Call of Duty, so will be interested to see if the campaign is as good as that game's is meant to be,,

I got you mate. Check PM

 

[Kvally]

Better moment than the first AC130 mission we had in COD?. OMG, that is my all time favorite moment.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

I got you mate. Check PM

Thanks pal, very kind of you! Unfortunately it doesn't work for whatever reason. Massively appreciate the gesture though!

 

[clarky]

If you claimed one before then you just need to set up a new account on your pc and claim it that way, I think.

If not, no worries. I've had a few codes sat around for ages. if you don't use it it just goes back to my account.

 

[hinch7]

Does anyone know when this goes live in the UK? On Steam.

 

[TVexperto]

Without spoilers how is the campaign so far?

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

tomorrow

 

[hinch7]

tomorrow

Ah cool, thanks.

Was going to try and stay awake for midnight release but sod it lol. It'll probably go by NA times.

 

[mrqs]

Why they thought it was a good idea to make the first mission around a massive fire that runs half the frame rate of the game on Xbox Series X...

I thought this was supposed to be a 60fps showpiece. Looks good but not great.

 

[clarky]

Ah cool, thanks.

5am for Steam mate, get some sleep.

 

[Danknugz]

they really need to boost the points you get from actually playing the objective in objective based modes other than TDM. feels like it's usually just me and one other dude actually PTFO while everyone else camps / hides / too scared to PTFO for their precious KDR.

i'm completely lost when it comes to the characters and the stories in the entire CoD franchise because i literally have played maybe one or two levels of campaign, nope the f out and just go back to multiplayer. i guess "soap" is some guy but that's the only name i can remember.

 

[PicoLordens]

Stupid question : on PC, Astro A50, Atmos enabled, which sound option do I use? Headphones? Treyarch mix? 5.1? 7.1?

 

[twilo99]

 

[hinch7]

5am for Steam mate, get some sleep.

Cheers. Yeah I assumed so, as they do the usual weekly resets around that time. Was just hoping for a midnight release. Oh well!

Time to rest I guess and grind some MP tommorrow.

 

[Northeastmonk]

Don’t they say this each time CoD comes out? lol

The only thing I liked about MW3 was it did score objective play well. I’d often finish top just by holding the hardpoint, capturing domination points, and picking up the tags in kill confirmed.

I remember Cold War had this crazy scoring system where the more kills you got without dying would multiply your points like a madman, encouraging really campy behaviour - I hope that’s not carried over to BO6!

 

[M1987]

Without spoilers how is the campaign so far?

Pretty shit from what I've played so far

 

[gooner4life_uk]

Loving this so far, got to round 32 on my first go on Zombies, MP I've got a 1.79KD so far after a couple of hours play, Campaign is pretty decent.

Run's beautifully with DLAA on my 4090 i9 12900k rig.

 

[TheMan]

Does anyone have a link to the original video from which this is lifted?

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Yeah emergence was cool, but I wouldn't say single best cod mission ever, it reminded me of a certain mission in cold war and it's basically a zombies level that gets sprung on you, I don't see everyone liking it simply because of that.

 

[Karram]

How’s the user base going to make any difference in terms of how the gameplay feels or the map design(which are both weak)?

 

[Kvally]

Well I can’t get into my Activision account to change it to New Zealand. Oh well

 

[Branded]

Well first thing I noticed on the PC version is that it doesn't hitch every 10 seconds any more so that's a relief.

Unfortunately it does seem to get hammered in terms of latency as I keep getting packet loss warnings. Oh well, sure it will be better as time goes on.

 

[Mattdaddy]

Whelp time to buy this bad boy and then rage quit before Thanksgiving.

The good ole annual Holiday season tradition.

 

[Branded]

Is everyone running Ghost or is there simply no footstep audio?

i kind of wish they would bring back having your kill streak kills count towards further kill streaks or at least make that part of a perk or something too. sucks to have killstreak kills not count towards the next, kind of deflates the buzz.

i don't think i played cold war but that sounds like a camp fest. the black ops 6 beta maps did seem geared away from camping and more objective play but you'll always have people camp no matter what, i just hate when the maps are clearly set up for camping.

 

[Ogbert]

Feels great. Movement is fantastic.

I will get absolutely destroyed in MP.

 

[twilo99]

Struggling with sound a little bit myself since this game broke the art tune situation so if you have Dolby Atmos on PC or console you can try this:



I'm was playing around with it all day I think I got it just right

I don't remember posting on this thread

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Finished the campaign, think it took me around 13 hours; action-spy-thriller.

 

[Chronicle]

Sigh. Huge update file i didn't download.

 

[kapshin]

Don’t they say this each time CoD comes out? lol

No, just every year.

Straight through in one sitting? Impressive.

I got ~4hrs in today I think and got to level 25 in MP
