I made a sarcastic thread in the past about Infinity Ward being the best candidate for making a COP themed COD.


You can tell from parts of the game that they really want to make a COP themed COD.

I don't think I've ever soured this quickly on a COD before.
10v10 was a mistake.

So i finished campaign. Mission design is cool, but the story and characters are so stupid, i just can't. 7/10. Infinite Warfare was miles better.
Did you like the part where
They start the mission with air support and an IFV but still have to rendezvous with Nikolai because they didn't have explosives

Where the fuck is the supposed third Ground War map? I've only encountered Karst and that city block with the stadium in the background. There was supposed to be a third.

So you level up your launchers by getting kills and not taking out streaks.... ok then

They said they will be changing that.

I don't really see how that is a problem. With Nikolai having them they don't need to worry about them being destroyed along the way as they siege the entrance.

They're showing up to a vital mission without a means to complete it.

So did Alex sacrifice himself? What was the point of that? There should be a whole ton of options to blow up the factory while escaping. There wasn't a time urgency issue either.

Supposedly, according to leakers, infinity ward has a ton of content done but refused to release it on launch day. Things like 20v20, party modes, a third ground war map called Donetsk Farm, at least 4 more spec ops missions, PvPvE modes, and even a BR mode are finished or very close to being finished. Everything will likely trickle out over the next couple months

Yeah I thought that was weird. He was like, "Detonator's broken, guess I'll kill myself," and Farah's response is basically, "Alright cool bye." When it's like... you could have waited a bit, man. I'm sure there are some more detonators somewhere nearby. Then he sacrifices himself and no one really reacts. Thanks bro.

COD feels super weird after not playing for quite a long time. There is so much pseudo awareness in the game. Foot steps are loud as fuck. So many UAVs, etc.. And ghost is deep in leveling tbf, not very deep, but yeah feels deep to me.

The progression is kinda cool because there is so much to unlock. But maybe too much to unlock a specific thing you want to use.

In the meantime, I am using the ghost prebuild loadout beause it has... ghost perk plus even the cold blooded. Field upgrades are kinda neat though, at least dead silence is not a perk.

I also would have liked to see TTK longer, but I knew going into this it was gonna be COD.

Oh, and the whole peak nonsense where you have to click to attach yourself and then click again to detach is a poor replacement for peaking. At least let us just move away from cover without having to click to detach.

As for responding to it:

The longer they stayed the higher chance the main Russian army would come and they didn't want to stay for that. As for the detonator itself it was clearly some device that worked on a wireless signal to send to each bomb. So it's not like something they could throw together before more forces arrived. And while Russia did disavow Barkov, if they had arrived and saw US and British forces on scene, they could have used it as justification for WWIII.

First coop map atleast is clearly a BattleRoyale map. Just tons of basic simple buildings that are all empty :P glitches out too, can't activate the car lift at all

It's pretty crappy that when a game ends I can't just back out of the lobby right away.

Finished the campaign and really liked it. Glad it wasn't over the top stupid like MW2. This is actually my favorite CoD since CoD4, it's not such a cluster fuck like MW2 onwards. I do wish the maps were a bit better, but if we get some remakes that'll help a lot. The only map I really dislike is Piccadilly, I'm giving Euphrates a few more plays before I decide if it's bad or not.

I am in absolute awe of the audio mixing in this game. Really making my Atmos system work on the studio reference setting. Unfortunately, I won't get to play it that way much since my wife hates sound!

With regards to Nikolai, I must've missed it but:

What was the significance of the note Nikolai left behind when the cops captured the butcher?

If anyone wants to get some games in, feel free to add me: Espanajeff. That's my Xbox/Activision name.

I usually play Hardcore TDM/Dom but have no problems jumping into some Core.

That one farm map is too damn big for domination. Feels like half a mile between points A and B.
