Wait so is this actually a separate game entirely then? Like Destiny 1 to Destiny 2? No progression?

 

[jigglet]

A sequel for a GaaS game. Lol. Talk about not getting it. Yeah go split that userbase.

 

[kikkis]

Awesome if we see it on current gen only.

Hackers rejoice

Warzone 2? Didn't they only just release a new map for warzone?

I haven't played warzone in years, but I'm surprised they are coming out with a new warzone already, considering warzone is the second most played game on consoles after fortnite.

I thought it would have been a couple years away still.

No idea, if I'll give it a go, as I am sadly not that into the BR genre, I think the only one that gripped me for a good month was apex.

Mildly curious to see how the reception is though.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

That's what's being said.

Wow. Be interesting to see how this unfolds.

 

[Riky]

This is going to increase demand for next gen consoles even more, Series S could move more big numbers as it's more available.

 

[ManaByte]

Speak of the devil M ManaByte

Are you aware that Warzone and COD are separate games? Warzone is the F2P game, and it's always been known that Warzone 2 was next gen only.

 

[Hawking Radiation]

I don't care what it is as long as it's NEXT GEN ONLY.

The sooner we get rid of old gen the better. Make my PC sweat FFS

"Hey company that made the most profitable game of the last two years! You don't know what you're doing!"

Yes I am aware. Literally just bringing this to your attention since we were talking about CoD in another thread. Not everything has to be contentious ya know.

The current Warzone is just running in BC mode on the next gen consoles. This will be a native app, like how Respawn is about to release a native Apex Legends for the next gen consoles. Activision doesn't want to be left behind.

 

[Diddy X]

Warzone already looked dated the day it came out, so I guess they are making Warzone 2 future ready, ps4/xone owners are gonna be let behind but it's just a matter of time until everybody makes the jump into nextgen.

Turn off RGB, less RGB = less power = more sweat less virginity.

I don't think the USB cheat dongles work on PS5 yet. So...

The dawn of the Gen II Battle Royales is upon us. Let their radiance wash over us, for we a ready!!

This should do wonders for Series S and X consoles.

 

[Fbh]

Cool I guess but it seems weird they'd refocus the game on hard to get consoles and higher spec PC's.
Isn't one of the core ideas of these F2P live service games that they make them accessible to as many people as possible? Like the recommended GPU for Lost Arc is a 970.

 

[NickFire]

I never believed they would release a next gen only sequel. I am all for every company doing this. I just never believed it would happen in a game like this. Awesome news for new gen owners.

 

[ChiefDada]

Maybe Series S, but why X?

It's COD... It won't split anything, everyone will move to the next big installment as long as it remains f2p.
Good move imo to not be constrained by the previous game

Hory shit welcome back

 

[kyliethicc]

Hope its fully standalone this time and not just part of MW2

 

[Concern]

Remove hackers and im in

Remove hackers and im in

Remove pc players from crossplay.

MW2's not part of it apparently, it's standalone. Damn I thought they were gonna migrate everything over from 1 to 2.

All game developers weigh technological advances with potential user base.

So just as "OMG Starfield is a true next gen game!", so is "OMG Warzone 2 is a true next gen game!"

The reason why Warzone 2 is going next gen only, is because the developers don't feel they can do certain things on last gen hardware. They're willing to cut a percentage of their potential user base because they believe these advancements are important.

This is why I always sensibly chuckled when people said Factions II was certain to be cross gen.

Everyday, playerone setting becomes a reality slowly.

Fuck…

Good. I hate how 2019 and Warzone are the same app / file.

Wish they were separate.

That's Activision in a nutshell.

Every cod is GaaS, and they restart every year anyway.

Sadly it isn't that easy. Plenty of cheaters on console with cronus zen controllers too.

I think the number is less on console because in almost every lobby that i have found someone cheating, they are on PC.

 

[Marvel]

Fuck I'm ready.

I have no doubt its less on console but its still an issue that won't completely disappear that easily.

 

[eastcoastkody]

Blackout was better than Warzone

 

[Dusktildawn48]

Blackout was better than Warzone

100%, it's not even remotely close.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

Hackers rejoice

Hopefully cross play with PC can be turned off.

 

[decisions]

I'm hyped af. Loved MW19 and Warzone was a blast until CW integration. I believe in IW.

 

[Insane Metal]

Nice birthday gift!

 

[Ezekiel_]

It has to be crossgen

 

[hlm666]

Beloader came out a few months ago and can be used to get the dualsense controller working through most of those kb/m things.

 

[Elder Legend]

But someone told me that Tom Henderson never ever got anything right.. and he is a useless insider. KEKW.

On a serious note. Looking forward to it !
